Further Information Regarding Errors in Current Position Display • In underground buildings and indoor • In places with a lot of overgrown parking lots trees and so on • Under elevated roads • Roads at the base of cliffs and caves NOTE • Because the GPS satellite is in orbit around the earth, the reception status for the electromagnetic waves changes depending on their position at that point in time, even if your vehicle is in the same place. Also, electromagnetic-waves from satellites near the horizon can be easily influenced by surrounding obstacles. • At times, satellites under the control of the US Department of Defence will intentionally drop positioning accuracy. 174 Navigation The system displays the vehicle current position based on GPS information and data from various sensors and road maps. However, when the radiowave signals from GPS satellites are weak or when signals are received only from two satellites or less, errors may occur in the position. Modifying or adjusting the system will not prevent these errors.
