PREFACE

System Features

Automatic Route Calculation

The navigation system displays and tracks your vehicle's position and movement via a moving map display. When you input a destination, the navigation system quickly calculates a route and guides you with pictorial displays and voice prompts. When determining the route, the system can be programmed to minimize the use of toll roads and freeways.

This system combines GPS signals received with map information stored on DVDROM to display the position and direction of the vehicle. This navigation system also includes an electronic gyro-sensor and a speed sensor that enable it to display the present vehicle position even in locations where GPS signals may be blocked.

Multiple Mode Destination Selection

Desired destinations can be selected among these 10 categories:

• an address

• an major intersection

• a point of interest (POI)

• a recent destination

• your personal address book

• a special feature called Today's Plan

• a location selected directly from the map display

• a phone number

• an origin of the current route

• a latitude and longitude

Street Name Input

Allows you to input your destination's street name (via Address or Intersection search) if you don't know your destination's city name.

Next T urn Guide

When an upcoming turn is approaching, the system will give maneuver instructions via arrow guides and simple voice prompts.

Real Time Voice Guidance

Using voice prompts, the system will notify you of upcoming turns and highways to enter. The VOICE button on the remote control allows you to access this voice guidance feature at any time with a single press.

Map Zoom

You can change the map display in nine magnification scales to get more detail or more general views (1/32, 1/16, 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 2, 8, 32, 128 mile zoom scales). A special 256 mile zoom scale is available when you view a very long route.

System Enhancements

Overall Improved System Response Time

Faster screen transitions and route calculations.

Faster Input Using Smart Key Filtering

By displaying only the characters necessary to complete your destination input, jumping over unnecessary letters is kept to a minimum.

Input Destination by Phone Number

By entering a POI by phone number, routing or calling and routing.

Expanded Points of Interest Database

The POI database contains hundreds of thousands of business locations. The database is constantly expanding and changing. Regular updates are made to keep up with this constant change.

GPS Clock

This time will automatically adjust according to GPS time. This time can also be displayed directly on the map along with your estimated time of arrival (ETA) or estimated drive time remaining (TO GO).

Navigation Terminology

Present Vehicle Position Indicator

The present vehicle position is indicated by an arrowhead within a circle.

Map Matching

Since GPS has an error window of about 100 - 650 feet (30 m - 200 m), the position of the vehicle may be calculated in such a way that it is displayed incorrectly off the road. Map matching automatically corrects this error so that the vehicle is displayed on the road.

Destination

The destination point is represented by a checkered flag.

BEFORE USING THE SYSTEM

Installing New Navigation System Software

If a different version of the map disc has been used with your navigation system, the operating system program installed will be rewritten automatically to read this SMART MAP PRO disc.

Remove the different version of the map disc from your

navigation system. Insert this SMART MAP PRO disc. The display shows "Please insert DVD-ROM/ map data

disk." Insert the DVD-ROM disc into the NVE-N851A/ NVE-N852A Series Navigation System. (For instructions on inserting and removing the DVD-ROM disc, refer to the NVE-N851A/NVE-N852A Series Hardware Manual.)

The opening screen appears on the monitor display.

If a CVA-1003/CVA-1004/CVA-1005/CVA-1006/IVAC800/IVA-C801/IVA-D900 type system control monitor is used, you may not see this screen.

A disclaimer screen appears. Please read this important

information. Press the ENTER button on the remote control if you accept this statement.

Once the ENTER button on the remote control is

pressed, the map screen will appear on the display. The vehicle's present location is indicated. If the vehicle's present location is incorrect, drive the vehicle several miles in an area with an open view to sky. This will correctly synchronize the navigation system.

When powering on the unit for the first time, it takes the GPS receiver approximately 10 minutes to calculate the vehicle's current position. During this period, the vehicle position icon may not move even if the vehicle is being driven.

Installation Progress

How to use the Disc

There are two discs available for NVD-A211: the EAST version, and the WEST version. Phone number/POI (Point of Interest) information, etc., contained in the West area disc cannot be searched by the East disc, and vice versa. Places in the West area, for example, can only be found on the West disc. If you happen to cross into the West area while using the East disc, the POI icons on the screen map are not displayed. Route guidance is still possible, but it is recommended to change discs to effectively use the navigation system.

The East and West version discs cover the areas as shown below. There are some overlap areas which are stored in both discs.

West disc stored area

West(W)

Northwest(NW)

East disc stored area

Midwest(MidW)

Southwest(SW)

Overlap area

Southeast(SE)

Northeast(NE)
