Toyota Touch 2: How to use sat-nav

By Toyota Blog

Toyota Touch 2 is our advanced multimedia system and offers a rear-view camera, touchscreen control of the entertainment system plus access to your hands-free phone.

Touch 2 with Go adds satellite-navigation, a host of online connected services and a vast array of fantastic Toyota applications. Touch 2 with Go Plus adds voice control.

In this post we’ll take a look at how to use the Touch 2 with Go sat-nav in your Toyota and some of its additional features. It’s also possible to send journey details to your in-car navigation from the MyToyota online customer portal – to find out more about this, read our introduction to MyToyota.

The following video explains the process and we’ve also prepared step-by-step instructions below.

Start by pressing the system ‘NAVIGATION’ button.

Then press ‘ROUTE OPTIONS’, where you can choose to show route alternatives on your maps. You’ll only have to do this once.

Now return to the Navigation main screen and press ‘ENTER DESTINATION’.

Enter the relevant address or postcode, then ask the system to calculate the route.

Your device will offer you three route alternatives – Fast, Short and Ecological.

You also have the option of avoiding motorways, tolls, tunnels and ferries.

You can also change map modes between the normal map and the traffic map.
Touch 2 with Go Plus enables 3D mapping.

For more information on traffic services please see our post “How To Use Toyota Real Time Traffic”.

The icon in the bottom corner of the screen will access further information and map options.

Press the ‘POIs’ button to see all the different points of interest on your route, including destinations for eating, shopping and entertainment.

Touch 2 with Go can also access destinations in your phonebook contacts as well as destinations sent from Google or TomTom maps if your phone is paired with your device.

  1. Hi I have a Toyota Yaris Hybrid with Toyota Touch 2 with Go. The sound on the Sat nav is intermittent.. Sometimes if I alter the volume in settings the voice suddenly kicks in.
    Any thoughts please.

  3. HI

    I have a question about my Aygo x with sat nav, that I purchased new in 2017.

    Can you tell me how to suspend or stop the sat nav? (Basically, after I have entered a route and I am nearly there I just want to stop the sat nav).

    Hope this makes sense and look forward to your help

    Chris

    1. Hi Chris,

      Thanks for getting in touch. To suspend or stop the sat nav, select the pointer in the middle of the screen and a list of options will be prompted, including an option to suspend the journey.

      Hope this helps.

      1. This doesn’t work on my Auris, I press the pointer and no options come up?

  4. I have an Aygo 2017 X Press with X Nav fitted.

    I have encountered problem with the sat nav which I hope you can help me with.

    Recently, I have been on two long journeys and set the nav for my destination. However, it just kept telling me to come of at every single exit (whether motorway or main road) which as you can imagine was extremely irritating! In the end I had to stop the nav.

    Has anyone else encountered this problem? or could this be a problem with the supplied SD card?

    You help and advice would be much appreciated

  6. Hi referring to an message earlier……

    “Thanks for getting in touch. To suspend or stop the sat nav, select the pointer in the middle of the screen and a list of options will be prompted, including an option to suspend the journey”

    I have a verso (2015) – but I cannot get the sat nav (touch and go 2) to switch off and the step above does not work.

    Please advise.

    Kind regards
    Helen

  7. I have a 2018 Aygo with touch screen Nav. The maps are upside down. This makes it appear that we are reversing down the road. I have tried a factory re-set no good. Swapping the settings from 3D to North up etc -no difference. Any ideas how to get this so that the map follows the direction of travel?

      I did as you suggested and referred to my local dealer. The local dealer has now had the car back twice but is unable to fix the fault, despite being able to view it permanently. The local dealer upgraded the software with no effect now they want to replace the hardware but are awaiting permission from Toyota GB.

      I’m losing patience here guys. Several weeks, two dealer trips and multiple calls and emails to resolve a Nav fault that is reported by others on the web. This is not good.

      It is/has spoilt my daughters enjoyment of her first new car. Not what we expected from Toyota.

      Help please.

  9. I have Toyota Yaris 2018 Yaris HYBRID, What I notices is while driving we play music a bit loud then suddenly the loud alert (like speed reduction zone, camera etc) comes from the system (which is very loud) what I want how to reduce the alert sound & keep the music at the same intensity. If we reduce the music sounds alert sound also get reduced. but we don’t want to do that. i would like to play loud music buy keep the alert sound low. If this is not possible to differentiate the two sound level(if they are linked together) then please tell me how to disable the alert as I drive locally and I know where & what the speed ranges and cameras are there and I don’t want these alert sounds to distract and disturb me.

    2. if you use the volume control when the voice is active you can turn the volume down. but it is a bit hit and miss and really the system is surprisingly rubbish in this area

  10. I have just bought a 2017 Toyota Yaris I-Design with the Touch 2 SatNav (currently an owner of a 2014 Icon Plus with the previous SatNav model).

    Just reading all these comments of the horror of the sat nav volume adjusting when you are trying to adjust the music/radio/USB volume.

    One the Icon plus 2014, the Sat Nav has an independent volume setting, which stays the same no matter what I do to the music volume. It also stays constant even if I adjust the volume whilst the SatNav is giving driving instructions.

    I fear the Touch 2 model is much worse….not collected the 17 Reg yet…and I rely on the SatNav a lot for work – but now fear it will become a huge source of irritation instead.

    Is there a way to get the older NAV re-installed on the 17 reg? Even if it costs?
