Before Using the System

Chapter 1

Important Safety Information

Before using your navigation system, be sure to
read and fully understand the following safety
information:

• Do not attempt to install or service your
navigation system by yourself. Installation
or servicing of the navigation system by
persons without training and experience in
electronic equipment and automotive
accessories may be dangerous and could
expose you to the risk of electric shock or
other hazards.

• When a route is calculated, the route and
voice guidance for the route is automati­cally set. Also, for day or time traffic regu­lations, only information about traffic
regulations at the time when the route was
calculated is shown. One-way streets and
street closures may not be taken into con­sideration. For example, if a street is open
during the morning only, but you arrive
later, it would be against the traffic regula­tions so you cannot drive along the set
route. When driving, please follow the
actual traffic signs. Also, the system may
not know some traffic regulations.

❒ Read the entire manual before operating this

navigation system.

❒ The navigation features of your navigation sys-

tem (and rear view camera option if pur­chased) are intended solely as an aid to you in
the operation of your vehicle. It is not a substi­tute for your attentiveness, judgement, and
care when driving.

❒ Do not operate this navigation system (or the

rear view camera option if purchased) if doing
so will divert your attention in any way from
the safe operation of your vehicle. Always
observe safe driving rules and follow all exist­ing traffic regulations. If you experience diffi­culty in operating the system or reading the
display, park your vehicle in a safe location
and apply the handbrake before making the
necessary adjustments.

❒ Never allow others to use the system unless

they have read and understood the operating
instructions.

❒ Never use this navigation system to route to

hospitals, police stations or similar facilities in
an emergency. Stop using any functions relat­ing to the hands-free phone and please call
the appropriate emergency number.

❒ Route and guidance information displayed by

this equipment is for reference purposes only.
It may not accurately reflect the latest permis­sible routes, road conditions, one way streets,
road closures, or traffic restrictions.

❒ Traffic restrictions and advisories currently in

force should always take precedence over
guidance given by the navigation system.
Always obey current traffic restrictions, even if
the navigation system provides contrary
advice.

❒ Failure to set correct information about the

local time may result in the navigation system
providing improper routing and guidance
instructions.

❒ Never set the volume of your navigation sys-

tem so high that you cannot hear outside traf­fic and emergency vehicles.

❒ To promote safety, certain functions are disa-

bled unless the vehicle is stopped and/or the
handbrake is applied.

❒ The data encoded in the hard disk drive for the

navigation system is the intellectual property
of the provider, and the provider is responsible
for such content.

Chapter 1 Before Using the SystemNAVI/AV

15

❒ Keep this manual handy as a reference for

operating procedures and safety information.

❒ Pay close attention to all warnings in this

manual and follow the instructions carefully.

❒ Do not install this navigation system where it

may (i) obstruct the driver’s vision, (ii) impair
the performance of any of the vehicle’s operat­ing systems or safety features, including air
bags or hazard lamp buttons or (iii) impair the
driver’s ability to safely operate the vehicle.

❒ Please remember to wear your seat belt at all

times while operating your vehicle. If you are
ever in an accident, your injuries can be con­siderably more severe if your seat belt is not
properly buckled.

❒ Never use headphones while driving.

Chapter 1Before Using the System NAVI/AV

Additional Safety Information

To ensure safe driving

Handbrake interlock

Certain functions (such as viewing of DVD video
and certain touch key operations) offered by this
navigation system could be dangerous and/or
unlawful if used while driving. To prevent such
functions from being used while the vehicle is in
motion, there is an interlock system that senses
when the handbrake is set and when the vehicle
is moving. If you attempt to use the functions
described above while driving, they will become
disabled until you stop the vehicle in a safe place,
and apply the handbrake. Please keep the brake
pedal pushed down before releasing the hand­brake.

• When applying the handbrake in order to
view “Video image” or to enable other
functions offered by the navigation sys­tem, park your vehicle in a safe place, and
keep the brake pedal pushed down before
releasing the handbrake if the vehicle is
parked on a hill or otherwise might move
when releasing the handbrake.

When you attempt to watch “Video image” while
driving, the warning “Viewing of front seat

video source while driving is strictly prohib­ited.” will appear on the screen. To watch “Video

image” on this display, stop the vehicle in a safe
place and apply the handbrake. Please keep the
brake pedal pushed down before releasing the
handbrake.

Rear view camera and [Rear View]
mode

With an optional rear view camera, you are able
to use the navigation system as an aid to keep an
eye on trailers or to back into a tight parking spot.

• SCREEN IMAGE MAY APPEAR
REVERSED.

• USE INPUT ONLY FOR REVERSE OR
MIRROR IMAGE REAR VIEW CAMERA.
OTHER USE MAY RESULT IN INJURY
OR DAMAGE.

• To avoid the risk of damage and injury and
the potential violation of applicable laws,
the navigation system is not for use with a
“Video image” that is visible to the driver.

• In some countries the viewing of “Video
image” on a display inside a vehicle even
by persons other than the driver may be
illegal. Where such regulations apply, they
must be obeyed.

16

Features (Characteristics of this
software)

Touch panel key operation

It is possible to operate the navigation functions
and the Audio functions by using touch panel
keys.

Variety of view modes

Various types of screen display can be selected
for navigation guidance.

Compatible voice recognition system

Connecting the supplied microphone will enable
voice operation for both the navigation and AV
functions.

Original image assignment

You can store your own pictures on a CD-R in
JPEG format and import original images in this
navigation system. These imported images can
be set as a background or as a picture in an
address book or phone book entry.

Notes for Hard Disk Drive

• The rear view mode is to use the naviga­tion system as an aid to keep an eye on the
trailers, or while backing up. Do not use
this function for entertainment purposes.

Wide variety of facility information for
Points of Interest (POI) search

You can search for your destination from a wide
area.
– Approximately 186 thousand POIs are included
in the database.
– Some POI information may not be accurate or
may become inaccurate through the passage of
time. Please contact the POI directly to verify the
accuracy of the information about the POI that
appears in this database. POI information is sub­ject to change without notice.

Auto reroute function

If you deviate from the set route, the system will
re-calculate the route from that point so that you
remain on track to the destination.

❒ This function may not work in certain areas.

Recording equipment and copy­right

Recording equipment should be used only for
lawful copying and you are advised to check care­fully what defines lawful copying in the country in
which you are making a copy. Copying of copy­right material such as films or music is unlawful
unless permitted by a legal exception or con­sented to by the right owners.

Notes when writing data to the
hard disk drive at low tempera­ture

Writing to the hard disk drive, such as recording
music to the Music Library, may be disabled
when the navigation system detects abnormally
low temperatures inside the vehicle. Functionality
will become available once the temperature
inside the vehicle returns to normal. Additionally,
if the low temperature continues for a long time,
the system may be booted up with the prelimi­nary mode because the system can not recognise
the hard disk drive.
