System Overview
Your navigation system receives GPS signals from up to 8
satellites to display the position and direction of your vehicle.
Map and database information is supplied through a DVD-
ROM. A gyroscope and the vehicle’s speed sensor enable the
system to display the present vehicle position even in loca-
tions where GPS signals may be blocked.
When you input a destination, the navigation system uses
map data from the DVD-ROM to quickly calculate a route.
As you drive along your chosen route, you are guided with
pictorial displays and voice prompts.
