Abstract: For registering or updating the information of second identification codes stored in a theft prevention apparatus when the theft prevention apparatus is replaced, a third identification code sent from a third apparatus which is mounted in a motor vehicle is checked against a third identification code stored in the theft prevention apparatus, and must be identical thereto. Even if a third party prepares and installs an ignition key and a theft prevention apparatus of its own on the motor vehicle, the third identification code is not verified, and hence the information of second identification codes cannot be equalized.

Abstract: A navigation system comprises a navigation apparatus mounted on a vehicle and a portable information device communicable with the navigation apparatus based on a predetermined communication protocol. The navigation apparatus searches a route from a current position to a destination, and guides the searched route to the vehicle, that is, crews on board. The navigation apparatus further comprises a unit for searching a further route from a further current position to the destination in response to a predetermined command. The further current position is a position at which the unit searches the further route. The navigation apparatus further comprises a transfer unit for transferring information indicative of the further route to the portable information device. This device provides a person, who carries the device, with a further route guide by showing the further route, after the route guide performed by the navigation apparatus.

Abstract: Total consumed calories are indicated in an upper portion of a display. A life activity intensity of each of the past seven days and an average life activity intensity over the same period are indicated by a bar graph in a lower portion of the display. The life activity intensity is classified into rank I (light), rank II (medium), and rank III (a little heavy). A total exercise amount (i.e., total consumed calories) and a life activity intensity are calculated and automatically displayed at the end of a day.
