Eco-friendly driving functions

Chapter

05

This navigation system is equipped with eco­friendly driving functions that can be used to
estimate whether you are driving in an envir­onmentally friendly way.
This chapter describes these functions.

! The fuel mileage calculated is based on a

theoretical value determined from vehicle
speed and position information from the
navigation system. The fuel mileage dis­played is only a reference value, and does
not guarantee the mileage displayed can be
obtained.

! The eco-friendly driving functions are an es-

timate of the real time fuel consumption to
average fuel consumption ratio and is not
an actual value.

! The eco-friendly driving functions and cal-

culations take into consideration the loca­tion of the GPS position and speed of the
vehicle in determining a value.

Checking the eco-friendly
driving status

This function estimates approximate fuel mile­age based on your driving, compares that with
your average fuel mileage in the past, and dis­plays the results in a graph.
The graph appears when the map display is
set to “Eco Graph”.

Using traffic information

Chapter

You can check real-time traffic information
transmitted by the Traffic Message Channel
(TMC) of the FM Radio Data System (RDS) on
the screen. Such traffic information is updated
periodically. When the navigation system re­ceives updated traffic information, the naviga­tion system will overlay the traffic information
on your map and also display detailed text in­formation when available. When you are tra­velling along a route and there is traffic
information on your current route, the system
will detect it and ask you if you would like to
be rerouted, or suggest another route automa­tically.
p The system acquires the traffic information

up to 150 km in radius from the vehicle po­sition. (If there is a lot of traffic information
around your vehicle, the radius will be
shorter than 150 km.)

p The navigation system provides the follow-

ing functions by using the information
from RDS-TMC service:

! Displaying a list of traffic information
! Displaying traffic information on a map
! Suggesting a route to avoid traffic jams

by using traffic information

p The term “traffic jam” in this section indi-

cates the following types of traffic informa­tion: slow, queuing and stationary traffic
and closed/blocked roads. This information
is always taken into consideration when
checking your route, and the information
related with these events cannot be turned
off. If you select other traffic information in
“Traffic Settings”, the information can be
displayed in a list or on a map.
