Orientation of the Map You can change the orientation of the map from North-up to Heading-up by touching the direction symbol at the top left of the screen. North-up symbol Regardless of the direction of vehicle travel, North is always up. Heading-up symbol The direction of the vehicle travel is always up. A red arrow indicates North. 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. When your vehicle is receiving signals from the satellites, the "GPS" mark appears at the top left of the screen. The GPS signal may be physically obstructed, leading to inaccurate vehicle position on the map display. Tunnels, tall buildings, trucks, or even the placement of objects on the instrument panel may obstruct the GPS signals. The installation of window tinting may also obstruct the GPS signals. Most window tinting contains some metallic content that will interfere with the GPS signal reception. We recommend not to use the window tinting on vehicles equipped with navigation systems. 2002 MY RX300 EMV_U (OM48440U) FROM JAN 10, 2002 beginning frame numbers: MCU10-0130376 and MCU15-0258831 39

2002 MY RX300 EMV_U (OM48440U) FROM JAN 10, 2002
beginning frame numbers: MCU10–0130376 and MCU15–0258831
You can change the orientation of the
map from North–up to Heading–up by
touching the direction symbol at the top
left of the screen.
North–up symbol
Regardless of the direction of vehicle travel,
North is always up.
Heading–up symbol
The direction of the vehicle travel is always
up. A red arrow indicates North.
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 sat-
ellite condition, road configuration, ve-
hicle condition or other circumstances.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) devel-
oped and operated by the U.S. Department
of Defense provides an accurate current ve-
hicle position using 3 to 4 satellites.
The
GPS system has a certain level of inaccura-
cy.
While the navigation system will com-
pensate for this most of the time, occasional
positioning errors up to 300 feet can and
should be expected.
Generally, position er-
rors will be corrected within a few seconds.
When your vehicle is receiving signals from
the satellites, the “GPS” mark appears at the
top left of the screen.
The GPS signal may be physically ob-
structed, leading to inaccurate vehicle posi-
tion on the map display.
Tunnels, tall build-
ings, trucks, or even the placement of
objects on the instrument panel may obstruct
the GPS signals.
The installation of window tinting may also
obstruct the GPS signals.
Most window tint-
ing contains some metallic content that will
interfere with the GPS signal reception.
We
recommend not to use the window tinting on
vehicles equipped with navigation systems.
