Toyota 4RUNNER 2004 Owners Manual

4Runner_Navi_U (L/O 0308)

Foreword

Thank you for your purchase of the Navigation System. Please read this manual carefully to ensure proper use. Keep this manual stored in your vehicle at all times.

The Toyota Navigation System is one of the most technologically advanced vehicle accessories ever developed. The system receives satellite signals from the Global Positioning System (GPS) operated by the U.S. Department of Defense. Using these signals and other vehicle sensors, the system can show you where you are and assist you in locating a desired destination.

The navigation system is designed to select efficient routes from your present starting location to your destination. The system is designed to direct you to a destination that is unfamiliar to you in efficient manners. The system uses the maps of DENSO based on NAVTECH maps, GDT maps and infoUSA POIs. The calculated routes are neither the shortest routes nor routes without traffic congestion. Your own personal local knowledge or “short cut” may at times be faster than the calculated routes.

The navigation system’s database includes about 50 point of interest categories to allow you to easily select destinations such as restaurants and banks. If a destination is not in the database, you can enter the street address or a major intersection close to it and the system will route you there. The system will provide both a visual map and audio instructions. The audio instructions will announce the distance and direction to go when you are approaching a fork or intersection. These voice instructions will help you keep your eyes on the road and are timed to provide enough time to allow you to maneuver, change lanes or slow down.

Please be aware that all current vehicle navigation systems have certain limitations that may affect their ability to perform properly. The accuracy of the vehicle’s position depends on the satellite condition, road configuration, vehicle condition or other circumstances. For more information on the limitations of the system, refer to pages 59 through 61.

Safety Instruction

L00002

To use your system as safely as possible, follow all the safety tips shown below.

This system is intended to assist you in reaching your destination and, if used properly, can do so. You, as the driver, are solely responsible for the safe operation of your vehicle and the safety of your passengers.

Do not use any feature of this system to the extent it distracts you from safe driving. Your first priority while you are driving should always be the safe operation of your vehicle. While you are driving, be sure to observe all traffic regulations.

Before attempting to use this system while you are driving, learn how to use it and become thoroughly familiar with it. Read the entire Navigation System Manual to make sure you understand the system. Do not allow others to use this system until they have read and understood these and other instructions in this manual.

For your safety, some functions may become inoperable when you start driving. Unavailable switches are dimmed. You can input your destination and select your route only when the vehicle is not moving.

CAUTION

 For safety, the driver should not

operate the navigation system while he/she is driving. Inattention to the road and traffic may cause an accident.

 While you are driving, be sure to

follow the traffic regulations and keep the road condition in mind. If a traffic sign on the road has been changed, route guidance may provide wrong information such as the direction of a one way street.

2004 4RUNNER Navigation from Aug. ’03 Prod. (OM35813U)

While you are driving, listen to the voice instructions as much as possible and glance at the screen briefly and only when it is safe. However, do not totally rely on voice guidance. Use it just for your information. If the system cannot determine your current position correctly, there is a possibility of incorrect, late or non- voice guidance.

The data in the system may occasionally be incomplete. Road conditions, including driving restrictions (no left turns, street closures, etc.) frequently change. Therefore, before you follow any instruction from the system, look to see whether you can comply with the instruction safely and legally.

This system cannot warn you about such things as the safety of an area, condition of streets, and availability of emergency services. If you are unsure about the safety of an area, do not drive into it. Under no circumstances is this sys-

tem a substitute for the driver’s personal judgement.

Use this system only in locations where it is legal to do so. Some states/provinces may have laws prohibiting video screens within sight of the driver.

Limitations of the navigation system

This navigation system calculates the current vehicle position using satellite signals, various vehicle signals, map data, etc. However, the accurate position may not be shown depending on the satellite condition, road configuration, vehicle condition or other circumstances.

The Global Positioning System (GPS) developed and operated by the U.S. Department of Defense provides an accurate current vehicle position using 3 to 4 satellites. The GPS system has a certain level of inaccuracy. While the navigation system will compensate for this most of the time, occasional positioning errors up to 300 feet can and should be expected. Generally, position errors will be corrected within a few seconds.
