Global Positioning System (GPS)

The Navigation System determines the position of your vehicle by using satellite signals, various vehicle signals and map data.

The Global Positioning System (GPS) locates the current position of your vehicle using signals sent by the United States Department of Defense GPS Satellites. While your vehicle is receiving signals from the satellites, GPS will not appear on the map screen.

However, at times, other interferences such as the satellite condition, road conﬁguration, the condition of the vehicle and/or other circumstances can interfere with the system’s ability to determine the accurate position of the vehicle. This is when GPS will appear on the map screen.

The system may not be available or interferences may occur if any of the following are true:

• Signals are obstructed by tall buildings, large trucks

or a tunnel.

• Satellites are being repaired or improved.

• Aftermarket glass tinting has been applied to the

vehicle’s windshield.

Do not apply aftermarket glass tinting to the vehicle’s windshield. Glass tinting will interfere with the system’s ability to receive GPS signals and may cause the system to malfunction.

If you are experiencing a problem, see “Vehicle Positioning” and “Problems with Route Guidance” following in this section for more information.

Vehicle Positioning

At times, the position of the vehicle on the map may be inaccurate due to one or more of the following reasons:

• The road system has changed.

• The vehicle is traveling on slippery road surfaces

such as sand, gravel and/or snow.

• The vehicle is being driven on winding roads.

• The vehicle is being driven on a long straight road.

• The vehicle is approaching a tall building or a

large vehicle.

• The surface streets run parallel to a freeway.

2-30

• The vehicle has just been transferred by a vehicle

carrier or a ferry.

• The current position calibration is set incorrectly.

• The vehicle is being driven at high speeds.

• The vehicle is repeating a change of directions by

going forward and backward, or turning on a turn table in a parking lot.

• The vehicle is entering and/or exiting a parking lot

or garage with a roof.

• The vehicle has a roof carrier, ski or bike rack

installed on it.

• The vehicle has tire chains on it.

• The tires have been replaced.

• The tire pressure is incorrect.

• The tires are worn.

• The battery is disconnected.

• The vehicle is driven in heavy traffic where driving

is at low speeds and the vehicle is stopped and started repeatedly.

Problems with Route Guidance

Inappropriate route guidance may occur under any of the following conditions:

• You have not turned onto the road indicated by the

system.

• Route guidance is not available for the next right or

left turn.

• The route is not changed during automatic rerouting.

• Plural names of places are displayed.

• You are driving at high speeds, which may cause

the automatic rerouting to operate slower.

• The route prohibits the entry of a vehicle due to a

regulation by time or season or any other regulation which may be given.

• A route cannot be found.

• A road is new, was recently changed or is not listed

on the DVD. The route to the destination may not be shown. See “Ordering Map DVDs” later in this section.
