SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (2)
CAUTION
Make sure that there is no dust adhering to the metal
contacts of the AC/DC adaptor. Dust or metal touching the
contacts may result in fires or electric shocks.
Do not damage, bend excessively, twist, pull or place
heavy weights on the AC/DC adaptor cord.
Should the cord get damaged (core wire exposed, cut, etc.)
request a replacement at the place of purchase. Using as is
may result in fires or electric shocks.
WARNING
Do not use the unit in areas of high temperatures for an
extended period (direct sunlight, in a vehicle under a hot
sun, etc.) and do not leave the unit in such areas.
Burns or fires may result.
Do not place or install the unit in areas where rain is
blown in by the wind or in areas prone to water splashes,
humidity or dust. Water, humidity or dust infiltrating the unit
may result in smoke emissions or fires.
Do not place the unit in areas where it may be exposed to
oil, smoke or water vapor such as near a kitchen counter
or a humidifier. Fires or electric shocks may result.
Do not place the unit on unsteady or inclined surfaces.
It may fall resulting in injury.
Do not use the unit if it is covered by a cloth
sheet or blanket. Fires may result.
Enjoy watching the unit at a suitable sound level.
High volumes may damage your hearing and, because
exterior sounds become muffled, traffic accidents may result.
If the unit’s power supply is the vehicle battery, do not
leave the vehicle engine turned off for extended period
while operating the unit.
The vehicle battery may weaken and die out.
While driving, adjust the volume of the unit so that
exterior sounds can be heard well. Driving without being
able to hear exterior sounds may lead to traffic accidents.
Should the instructions provided by the navigation unit
differ from the actual traffic conditions, proceed to drive
in accordance with the actual traffic conditions.
Accidents may result.
Do not place the AC/DC adaptor cord near a heater.
The cord’s plastic sheath may melt and result in fires or
electric shocks.
When unplugging the AC/DC adaptor cord, do so by
pulling on the plug itself, not the cord.
Pulling on the cord may result in damage to the cord and lead
to fires or electric shocks.
Do not handle the AC/DC adaptor cord with wet hands.
Electric shocks may result.
When cleaning the plug or when not using the unit for an
extended period, disconnect the AC/DC adaptor from the
power supply for safety.
Electric shocks or fires may result.
Do not place the plug on the floor with the metal contacts
facing upward.
Stepping on it in this condition may cause injury.
Do not look directly at the laser light source.
Doing so may cause eye damage.
Do not press on the liquid crystal panel with excessive
force or expose it to impacts.
The liquid crystal panel glass may crack resulting in injury.
Should the liquid crystal panel crack, do not come into
contact with the liquid coming from the interior of the
panel. This may lead to inflammation of the skin.
¡Should the liquid be accidentally ingested, see a doctor
immediately.
¡Should the liquid get into the eyes or onto the skin, wash out
with a large amount of water and see a doctor immediately.
CAUTION
Pull out
the plug
23 24
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (3)
For safety, adhere the stand base onto a surface that would enable secure
anchoring. Depending on the dashboard material (PP: polypropylene or
other), the double-surface adhesive tape alone may not be strong enough
to affix the unit. Use the tapping screws included with the unit (4 screws)
to securely anchor it.
* For such a case, holes need to be made into the dashboard. Proceed with
caution.
(*In case of a prominent curved surface, the adhesive area is reduced
resulting in unsteady mounting. The unit may not be mountable onto such a
surface.)
For vehicles equipped with airbags (SRS Dual Airbag, SRS Side Airbag,
SRS Curtain Airbag, etc.), do not under any circumstance install the unit
in a way that obstructs the airbag cover or would hinder its proper
operation. Do not wire the antenna cord in such an area.
In the event the airbag is to be deployed, it may not function correctly.
(*Decide on the unit’s mounting position after thoughtful consideration for safety
and consultation with the place of purchase.)
If the surface on which the unit is to be adhered is not plastic (leather,
wood, upholstery, etc.), the surface finish may become damaged
rendering installation using adhesives impossible.
Should the stand base adhesive get torn off the dashboard, slowly and
carefully peel it off the surface.
Because strong adhesive tape is used, peeling off with excessive force may
damage the dashboard surface finish.
CAUTION
CAUTIONARY ITEMS FOR PROPER USAGE (1)
¡The adhesive strength of the double-surface tape decreases at

CAUTIONARY ITEMS FOR PROPER USAGE (2)
During raining days, when the humidity level
is high or immediately after having turned on
the heater in cold temperatures, condensation
(water drops) may form on the optical lens
inside the unit. Using the unit in this condition
may result in laser malfunction rendering
normal operation impossible. Results may
depend on the ambient environmental conditions,
however, the condensation will evaporate and normal operation will be possible after
removing the disc and leaving the unit unused for roughly 1 hour.
ABOUT CONDENSATION
Take out the
disc and
wait about 1
hour, ok?
Exposing the unit to vibrations may result in the following conditions:
¡DVD video/CD/JPEG imaging: Sound and image disturbance, however, both return to
normal when vibrations cease.
¡Map disc: Rarely affected by vibrations, however, on rare occasions, symptoms such
as the map disappearing from the screen may occur. Operation returns to
normal when vibrations cease.
ABOUT VIBRATIONS
Everything will
be back to
normal when
vibrations stop!
¡Direct sunlight will cause the display to blacken
due to reflection of the sunrays. Avoid direct
sunlight.
¡The display is best viewed from directly in front of
the unit. Watch the screen within a 45° angle
vertically and a 90° angle laterally from the unit.
¡Red and blue points of light may appear in the display. This is normal for a liquid
crystal display and does not mean the display is damaged.
¡The display uses a small fluorescent tube as a backlight for liquid crystals. If the
screen goes black and does not light up, consult the place of purchase.
ABOUT THE DISPLAY
45° vertically
90° laterally
Because the most detailed map reduction scales provided by the map disc vary
depending on the region, when moving the map screen to a region of varying reduction
scale, the screen may not show a map. Continue moving the map to return the normal
driving map screen and the reduction scale will change to the most detailed map for the
region presently displayed.
ABOUT THE DETAILED MAP SCREEN DISPLAY
Using the unit when the vehicle engine is turned off may lead to
weakening of the battery. Do not use the unit for an extended period
with the engine turned off.
ABOUT USING THE UNIT WITH THE VEHICLE ENGINE TURNED OFF
(WHEN THE UNIT POWER SOURCE IS THE VEHICLE BATTERY)
¡Dust easily adheres to the screen necessitating
periodical cleaning. When cleaning, cut off the
power supply and wipe the screen with a soft
cloth. Do not use a wet cloth and do not rub the
screen with a hard object or hit the screen.

guidance, the stored route
cannot be changed.
¡Perform rerouting with your
vehicle stopped in a safe
place. If moving your vehicle
during a route search, you
may stray away from the
search result route when the
set route is displayed.
¡Do not perform rerouting while
driving on a highway, rather,
move to a local road and
proceed. Rerouting while on a
highway may cause the
reroute departure point
(present location) to be set in
the opposite traffic lane due to
signal errors from the GPS
satellite resulting in a
displayed route with a
reversed heading.
¡The unit can be set to
automatically reroute in the
event of straying off the set
route during route guidance.

¡Dimmer adjustment is a function that enables the adjustment of the
brightness of the screen.
¡Using the Joystick (s) to set the dimmer to AUTO, the unit’s
brightness sensor detects the surrounding luminosity and automatically
modifies the brightness of the screen to correspond to the brightness of
the surrounding area. For example, the screen is made bright when
there’s a lot of light coming from the sun during the day and the
brightness is turned down at night or when driving through a tunnel.

In the event of obstructions blocking GPS satellite signals from reaching the GPS
exterior antenna, the signals will be difficult to receive rendering the measurement
of the present location impossible. Conditions for proper present location
measurement include driving in areas where there are no obstructions blocking
signal reception.
Areas such as the following are not suitable for GPS satellite signal reception, move
away from them for proper positioning.
¡In a tunnel ¡Surrounded by tall
buildings
¡Under an elevated
highway
Tunnel
¡Within a building
* The following are reasons why the GPS satellite reception frequency fluctuates even at the same
location.
¡Because the position of the GPS satellite changes with time due to its orbit around the earth.
¡Because signal reception may be affected by other signals whose frequencies are close to those
transmitted by the GPS satellite.
RECEIVING SIGNALS FROM THE GPS SATELLITE
¡When riding on public transportation
If the unit does not receive signals from the GPS satellite using the GPS exterior
antenna included with the unit, present location measurement will be impossible.
To display the actual present location, connect the GPS exterior antenna to the unit
and proceed with the reception of signals from the GPS satellite.
Proceed with GPS satellite signal reception as shown below. When the unit receives
signals it can use to measure the present location, the GPS reception display ( )
located in the top right corner of the present location display screen lights up yellow
and the actual present location is displayed.
* When the GPS reception display ( ) is gray, the present location measured previously is displayed.
After having purchased the unit, the San Francisco area will be shown if the unit hasn’t had a chance
to measure the present location yet. GPS signal reception is impossible from inside a building.
To measure the present location properly, take the GPS exterior antenna outside and proceed with
signal reception.
Connect the included GPS exterior antenna
to the unit.
Mount it horizontally on the exterior chassis
of the vehicle or in your vehicle (dashboard)
on a flat surface where any part of your vehicle
will not obstruct signal reception.
* – Signals may not be properly received if installing within the vehicle. Try your best to install it on the
exterior of your vehicle. (The included GPS antenna mounting plate is required if installing within
your vehicle.)
– If installing within your vehicle, we recommend your separate the unit and the GPS exterior antenna
by at least 10 inches so as to prevent them from interfering.
INSTALLATION EXAMPLE
Connect the included GPS exterior antenna to
the unit and place it outside in an area where
signals will not be obstructed.
* Within buildings or public transportation, the roof may
obstruct the proper reception of GPS satellite signals
rendering the measurement of the present location
impossible.
* To prevent interference between the navigation unit and
the GPS exterior antenna, we recommend that you install
them at least 10 inches apart.

PRESENT LOCATION MEASUREMENT
IF USING THE UNIT INSTALLED
ELSEWHERE THAN YOUR VEHICLE
IF USING THE UNIT INSTALLED
IN YOUR VEHICLE
AREAS WHERE PRESENT LOCATION MEASUREMENT IS IMPOSSIBLE
¡Within a dense cluster
of trees
Make sure to conduct signal reception in a wide open area.
When the unit receives signals it can use to measure the present location, the GPS
reception display ( ) located in the top right corner of the present location display screen
lights up yellow and the actual present location is displayed.
After having purchased the unit and using it for the first time or using it again after
an extended period of inactivity, it may take the unit 15 to 20 minutes before being
able to display the actual present location. (This is because the satellite tracking data is
sent by the GPS satellite once every 12.5 minutes significantly delaying the time it takes for
data to be received. Do not move your position until the present location is
displayed.) Normally, the position screen should appear a few minutes after having turned
the power ON.

CAUTIONARY ITEMS DURING ROUTE GUIDANCE (1)
■ There may be instances when the
following routes are displayed.
¡Even if making a route search, there
may be a route displayed starting from
the front or the back of the vehicle
mark.
¡Even if having set a destination, there
may be a route displayed from the
front or the back of the vehicle mark.
¡Even if making a route search, the
display may show a route starting from
another road.
For such a case, the vehicle mark may
not correspond with the present
location. Re-effectuate the route
search after the vehicle mark has
returned to the correct road.
¡Setting the destination and waypoints
with points retrieved from already
registered points or guidance data
may lead to the display of routes with
wide detours. If correcting such routes,
make sure to set them accurately
keeping in mind the proper heading.
Pay special attention to roads whose
two traffic directions are shown as
separate roads such as in the case of
interchanges and service areas.
¡Even if having set a destination
reachable completely on land with no
check mark ( ) indicated next to
in , the
unit may set a route that contains a
ferry crossing. If wanting to correct the
route, set a waypoint along a land
bound route and re-effectuate the
route search.
¡For the ferry seaway crossings, it is
possible to set a main route that
excludes passenger only or bicycles
only ferries, however, these are meant
as a guide to be used only after
verifying carefully the approximate
time of arrival as well as the trip
conditions.
Preferred RouteUse Ferries
■ The route displayed is the reference
route.
This may not be the shortest route to
the destination.
■ Whether it’s because the roads have
been modified or because the map
DVD-ROM is outdated, the shape of
the roads as well as the traffic
conditions may vary from the actual
conditions. Make sure to drive your
vehicle as per the actual traffic
conditions.
■ During a route search, the map does
not shift in accordance with the
running of your vehicle.
■ After a route search is complete, it
may take a moment until the
recommended route is displayed.
■ There may be instances when the
route does not disappear from the
screen when arriving at your
destination or at waypoints. Either
search for a new route or turn off the
engine to clear the route from the
screen.
■ When re-effectuating a route search,
the unit will not search for a route to
return to waypoints that have been
determined as already passed along
the route.
■ When the map is shifted while the
route is displayed, it may take a
moment for the route to be
redisplayed.
■ If having made a route search
prioritizing distance, the unit may
lead you through narrow roads or on
toll roads.
■ Even if having made a route search
prioritizing distance, the unit will
prioritize safe, easy to drive on local
roads near the departure and
destination points that may not
represent the shortest distance.
■ Set the position accurately in areas
where roads are in close proximity to
each other. Especially in areas where
the two directions of traffic are
displayed as separate roads, make
sure the heading is correct and set
your destination and waypoints on
roads.
■ In the event waypoint(s) are set, the
unit searches for routes between them
separately which may result in the
following:
¡If a route search is impossible for any
of the points, the entire route is not
displayed.
¡The route may be broken near the
waypoints.
¡A U-turn route may be displayed near
waypoints.
■ A route search may be impossible in
the following circumstances:
¡The present location and the
destination are too far from each other.
In such a case, reinitiate a route search
after having set closer to the
destination.
¡Actual traffic conditions render access
to the destination or waypoint
impossible.
¡There are only routes representing
extreme detours.
¡Other instances where conditions
render a route search impossible.
