System Overview
Your navigation system is a highly 
sophisticated location system with 
voice control that uses satellites and a 
map database to show you where you 
are and to help guide you to a desired 
destination. 
The navigation system receives signals 
from the global positioning system 
(GPS), a network of 24 satellites in 
orbit around the earth. By receiving 
signals from several of these satellites, 
the navigation system can determine the 
latitude, longitude, and elevation of your 
vehicle. In addition, a gyroscopic yaw 
sensor and a vehicle speed sensor in 
your vehicle keep track of the direction 
and speed of travel at all times.
