Present location display error
In order to find the exact position of the present location, this device uses compiled data from
the GPS satellite, vehicle speed sensor and vibration gyro sensor. Because each of these
contains a margin of error, the present location indicated may not exactly coincide with your
actual positioning.
If the position indicated is different from your actual position, the present location display
can be corrected. Park the vehicle in a safe place before proceeding.
Tire-related errors
The device calculates the distance traveled by the vehicle using a speed sensor that
measures tire rotation. The following situations will result in a significant error that may render
proper present location positioning impossible.
● Using a substandard tire.
● Driving on a snow-covered, gravel, or other slippery road.
● Incorrect tire air pressure.
● Using new tires (the distance compensation coefficient setting can be changed and
adjusted).
