Getting started with navigation
Precautions for safe driving
Please observe and comply with local traffic rules and regulations.
- The route displayed for destination guidance is a reference and the route guidance will take you to the vicinity of your destination. The highlighted route is not always the shortest distance, the least congested, and in some cases, might not be the fastest route.
- Road, name, POI and speed limit may not always been completely updated.
- The car position mark does not indicate your exact location. This system uses GNSS information, various sensors, and road map data to display the current position. However, errors in displaying your location may occur if the satellite is transmitting inaccurate signals or less than two satellite signals are received. Errors that occur in such conditions cannot be corrected.
- The position of the vehicle within the navigation may differ from your actual location depending on various reasons, including the satellite transmission state, vehicle state (driving location and conditions), etc. Additionally, the car position mark may differ from the actual position if the map data is different from the actual road landscape, such as changes due to the construction of new roads. If such differences occur, driving for a short period of time will automatically correct the position of the vehicle through map matching or GNSS information.
What is GNSS?
The GNSS(Global Navigation Satellite System) is a satellite-based navigation system made up of a network of 32 satellites placed into orbit by the Global Positioning System (GPS) of U.S.A, GLONASS of RUSSIA, etc.
GNSS works in any weather conditions, anywhere in the world, 24 hours a day.
There are no subscription fees or setup charges to use GNSS.
About satellite signals
Your unit must acquire satellite signals to operate. If you are indoors, near tall buildings or trees, or in a parking garage, the unit cannot acquire satellite signals.
Acquiring satellite signals
Before the unit can determine your current position and navigate a route, you must do the following steps:
- Go outside to an area free from tall obstructions.
- Turn on the unit. Acquiring satellite signals can take a few minutes.
