Global Positioning System (GPS)

The current position of the vehicle is determined by using satellite signals and various vehicle signals. At times, other interference such as the satellite condition, road configuration, condition of the vehicle, and/or other circumstances can affect the navigation system’s ability to determine the accurate position of the vehicle. This system might not be available or interference can occur if any of the following are true:

• Signals are obstructed by tall buildings, trees, large trucks, or a tunnel.
• Satellites are being repaired or improved.

For more information, if the GPS is not functioning properly, see Problems with Route Guidance 167.

Vehicle Positioning

At times, the position of the vehicle on the map could be inaccurate due to one or more of the following reasons:

• The road system has changed.
• The vehicle is driving on slippery road surfaces such as sand, gravel, or snow.
• The vehicle is traveling on winding roads or long, straight roads.
• The vehicle is approaching a tall building or a large vehicle.
• The surface streets run parallel to a freeway.
• The vehicle has been transferred by a vehicle carrier or a ferry.
• The current position calibration is set incorrectly.
• The vehicle is traveling at high speed.
• The vehicle changes directions more than once, or the vehicle is turning on a turntable in a parking lot.
• The vehicle is entering and/or exiting a parking lot, garage, or a lot with a roof.
• The GPS signal is not received.
• A roof carrier is installed on the vehicle.
• Tire chains are installed on the vehicle.
• The tires are replaced or worn.
• The tire pressure for the tires is incorrect.
• This is the first navigation used after the map data is updated.
• The 12-volt battery has been disconnected for several days.
• The vehicle is driving in heavy traffic where driving is at low speeds, and the vehicle is stopped and started repeatedly.

Problems with Route Guidance

Inappropriate route guidance can occur under one or more of the following conditions:

• The turn was not made on the road indicated.
• Route guidance might not be available when using automatic rerouting for the next right or left turn.
• The route might not be changed when using automatic rerouting.
• There is no route guidance when turning at an intersection.
• Automatic rerouting might display a route returning to the set waypoint if heading for a destination without passing through a set waypoint.
• The route prohibits the entry of a vehicle due to regulation by time or season or any other regulation which may be given.
• Some routes might not be searched.
• The route to the destination might not be shown if there are new roads, if roads have recently changed, or if certain roads are not listed in Maps.

To recalibrate the vehicle’s position on the map, park with the vehicle running for two to five minutes, until the vehicle position updates. Make sure the vehicle is parked in a location that is safe and has a clear view of the sky and away from large obstructions.
