SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

1. NAVIGATION SYSTEM OUTLINE

(a) Vehicle position tracking methods

It is essential that the navigation system correctly tracks the current vehicle position and displays it on the map. There are 2 methods to track the current vehicle position: autonomous (dead reckoning) and GPS* (satellite) navigation. Both navigation methods are used in conjunction with each other.

*: GPS (Global Positioning System)













HINT
The combination of autonomous and GPS navigation makes it possible to display the vehicle position even when the vehicle is in places where the GPS cannot receive a signal. When only autonomous navigation is used, however, the mapping accuracy may slightly decrease.

(b) Autonomous navigation

This method determines the relative vehicle position based on the driving track determined by the gyro located in the display and navigation module display and the vehicle speed signal.

(1) Gyro sensor

Used to calculate the direction by detecting angular velocity. It is located in the display and navigation module display.

(2) Vehicle speed signal

Used to calculate the vehicle driving distance.

(c) GPS* navigation (Satellite navigation)

This method detects the absolute vehicle position using radio waves from GPS satellites.

*: GPS satellites were launched by the U.S. Department of Defense for military purposes.









(d) Map matching

The current driving route is calculated by autonomous navigation (according to the gyro sensor and vehicle speed sensor) and GPS navigation. This information is then compared with possible road shapes from the map data in the hard disk drive and the vehicle position is set onto the most appropriate road.





(e) Touch switch

Touch switches are touch-sensitive (interactive) switches operated by touching the screen. When a switch is pressed, the outer glass bends in to contact the inner glass at the pressed position. By doing this, the voltage ratio is measured and the pressed position is detected.





2. DVD (DIGITAL VERSATILE DISC) PLAYER OUTLINE (for DVD Changer Models)

(a) The DVD player can only play DVD videos, DVD audio and video CDs that have any of the following marks:





(1) Precaution for use of discs

NOTICE:
* PAL or SECAM color television standard discs cannot be played (only NTSC discs can be played).
* Keep the discs away from dirt. Be careful not to damage the discs or leave fingerprints on them.
* Hold discs by the outer edge and center hole with the label side up.
* Leaving the disc exposed halfway out of the slot for a long time after pressing the disc eject button may cause deformation of the disc, making the disc unusable.
* Do not use odd-shaped discs because these may cause player malfunctions.
* Do not use discs whose recording portion is transparent or translucent because they may not be inserted, ejected or played normally.
* DualDiscs that mate DVD recorded material on one side with CD digital audio material on the other cannot be played.
(b) Cleaning





NOTICE:
Do not use a lens cleaner because it may cause a malfunction in the pickup portion of the player.

(1) If dirt is on the disc surface, wipe it clean with a soft dry cloth such as an eyeglass cleaner for plastic lenses from the inside to the outside in a radial direction.

NOTICE:
* Pressing on the disc by hand or rubbing the disc with a hard cloth may scratch the disc surface.
* Use of solvents such as record spray, antistatic agents, alcohol, benzine, thinners or a chemical cloth may cause damage to the disc, making the disc unusable.
3. "Bluetooth" OUTLINE

(a) "Bluetooth" is a trademark owned by Bluetooth SIG. Inc.

(b) "Bluetooth" is a wireless connection technology that uses the 2.4 GHz frequency band.

HINT
The communication performance of "Bluetooth" may vary depending on obstructions or radio wave conditions between communication devices, electromagnetic radiation, communication device sensitivity or antenna capacity.

(c) Hands-free function

(1) The "Bluetooth" built-in radio receiver assembly and a "Bluetooth" compatible cellular phone*1 can be connected using a "Bluetooth" wireless connection. This enables use of the hands-free function on the cellular phone even if the phone is in a pocket or bag. For this reason, it is not necessary to use a connector or cable to connect the cellular phone.

*1: Some versions of "Bluetooth" compatible cellular phones may not function.





4. RBDS FUNCTION OUTLINE (BROADCAST IN NORTH AMERICA ONLY)

The Radio Broadcast Data System (RBDS) is broadcast through conventional FM radio broadcasts. Information such as song names, traffic information, broadcast station names, etc. can be received.

5. SDARS SYSTEM FUNCTION OUTLINE (BROADCAST IN NORTH AMERICA ONLY)

Satellite Digital Audio Radio Service (SDARS) is a satellite digital radio broadcast provided by Sirius XM Radio Inc. The broadcast (pay-type) is performed through satellites and terrestrial repeater networks. Several unique channels are available, and even if a vehicle changes locations, the same information can be received without breaks. Information such as song names, broadcast station names, etc. can be received. Also, additional services may also be available.

NOTICE:
To receive audio-visual pay-type broadcasts, the customer must enter into a pay-type contract with XM Satellite Radio Inc. After entering into a contract, registration of the XM Radio ID is required. Also, if parts are replaced, the XM Radio ID must be re-registered.

6. COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

(a) MOST Network Outline





(1) Navigation system components communicate with each other via a MOST network.

(2) The MOST network uses a shielded twisted pair of wires for its communication lines.

(3) The master unit of the MOST network is the navigation ECU (display and navigation module display).

(4) MOST communication lines connect each slave unit centering around the master unit to form a MOST network ring.

(5) The master unit sends a wake-up signal to activate each slave unit connected to the MOST network.

HINT
If a short or open circuit occurs in the MOST circuit, communication will be interrupted and the system will not operate normally.

(b) AVC-LAN Outline





(1) Components of the navigation system communicate with each other via the AVC-LAN.

(2) The AVC-LAN uses a twisted pair of wires for its communication lines.

(3) The master unit of the AVC-LAN is the navigation ECU (display and navigation module display).

HINT
* The display and navigation module display has enough resistance (60 to 80 Ohms) necessary for communication.
* If a short or open circuit occurs in the AVC-LAN circuit, communication is interrupted and the system will not operate normally.
7. DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION OUTLINE
