Eco-friendly driving functions

This navigation system is equipped with eco-

friendly driving functions that can be used to

estimate whether you are driving in an envir-

onmentally friendly way.

This chapter describes these functions.

The fuel mileage calculated is based on a

theoretical value determined from vehicle

speed and position information from the

navigation system. The fuel mileage dis-

played is only a reference value, and does

not guarantee the mileage displayed can be

obtained.

1 Eco Score

The result of the comparison of your past

average fuel mileage and current average

fuel mileage appears as a value from

0.0 Pts (points) to 10.0 Pts. The higher the

value, the better the fuel mileage when

compared to past route guidance.

The green gauge indicates the current

score, and the gray gauge indicates the

best score to date.

The eco-friendly driving functions are an es-

timate of the real time fuel consumption to

average fuel consumption ratio and is not

an actual value.

The eco-friendly driving functions and cal-

culations take into consideration the loca-

tion of the GPS position and speed of the

vehicle in determining a value.

The “Eco Score” is updated every 5 min-

utes.

p This is not displayed when “Eco Score”

is set to “Off” or when no route is set.

2 Best Score

Displays the best score to date.

Checking the eco-friendly

driving status

This function estimates approximate fuel mile-

age based on your driving, compares that with

your average fuel mileage in the past, and dis-

plays the results in a graph.

p This is not displayed when “Eco Score”

is set to “Off” or when no route is set.

3 Average fuel mileage comparison graph

Displays a comparison of the average fuel

mileage up to the point the navigation sys-

tem was last stopped (past average fuel

mileage) and the current average fuel mile-

age. The display is updated every 3 sec-

onds. The more the value moves in the

direction of +, the better the fuel mileage.

For your voice commands to be correctly re-

cognized and interpreted, ensure that condi-

tions are suitable for recognition.

Please note that wind through the vehicle win-

dow or miscellaneous noise from outside the

Position the microphone carefully

For optimum pick-up, the microphone should

be fixed at a suitable distance directly in front

of the driver.
