an unverified area, turn-by-turn guidance and voice prompts
cannot be provided.
The navigation system will suggest a route highlighted in green.
This is only a route suggestion. In an unverified map area, the
navigation system is unaware of turning restrictions e.g. one way
roads, or where turns are not permitted.
Notes on Route Guidance
During navigation you will receive voice recommendations to
help guide you. The following explains some guidance messages
you may receive.
Warning: Danger of Accident! DO NOT IGNORE TRAFFIC LAWS. If a
driving recommendation contradicts the traffic laws, the laws ALWAYS take precedence!
“Make a U-turn if possible.” - You are driving in the wrong direction and should turn around at the earliest legal opportunity.
“Follow the arrows on the display.” - This display tells you that
you are currently in an area, such as a parking lot, garage, etc.,
that is not contained on the digital street map. The arrow indicates the actual geographic direction to the destination.
NAVIGATION SYSTEM
“Please take a sharp left in 500 feet.” - The red arrow points in
the direction you should turn. The dot indicates a maneuver
point.
126
NAVIGATION SYSTEM
“Follow the road.” - You should continue driving on the current
road for the distance shown.
127
“Prepare to take a left” or “Keep left in one mile.” - Keep left does
not mean to use HOV lanes or express lanes. You should note
that there is an upcoming turn and prepare to make any lane
changes needed to safely make the turn. As always, road safety
must be observed when making a lane change.
“Take the second exit to the right.” - This means to pass the first
exit after this announcement is given.
“Take the second turn on the right.” - This arrow shows you
which exit you should take from a traffic circle.
Note: At intersections and traffic circles, only the ends of the roads to be
passed are displayed.
“Keep right in half a mile.” - ”Keep right” means that the street will
fork and you should follow the indicated direction.
NAVIGATION SYSTEM
“You have reached your destination.” - The specified destination
has been reached and route guidance is terminated. The display
will switch back after few seconds.
