When the vehicle is approaching a junction or interchange, the screen switches to a split view. Lane information is graphically displayed on the left side of the split screen and icons showing the proper lanes for upcoming maneuvers are shown in the upper right corner below the clock.

The highlighted lanes are those from which the next maneuver on the route will be made. Lanes displayed in gray are those that do not follow the route at the upcoming junction or interchange. The icons in the upper right corner also indicate direction and may change as the junction or in- terchange approaches (for example, straight ahead, to straight and then right).

Once the vehicle passes through the junction or interchange, the screen returns to the previous view.

NOTE:

Lane information is not available for all areas. It will only be displayed in areas where the necessary map data is available.

NOTE:

The number of lane icons in the upper right corner may change as the junction or inter- change approaches due to a difference in the number of available lanes.

The SD-card slot is located on the front of the unit. When you purchase this system, an SD- card with map data is provided.

ABOUT THE MAP DATA

Bosch has compiled the digitized map data into a usable format. 2011 Robert Bosch GmbH all rights in compilation software reserved. Due to the production timing of the map data, some new roads may not be included, or some names and roads may be different from those in use at the time this map data is used.

Traffic control and regulation data used in this map data may be different from those in use at the time this map data is used. When driving, follow the actual traffic control signs and no- tices on the roads.

Reproducing or copying this map software is strictly prohibited by law.

m WARNING This navigation system should not be

used to replace your own judgement. No itinerary suggested by this navi- gation system should ever override any freeway regulations, your own judgement, or a knowledge of safe driving practices. Do not follow the navigation systems suggested itin- erary if it would cause you to perform a dangerous or illegal act, place you in a dangerous situation, or take you into an area you consider unsafe.

The advice provided by the naviga- tion system is to be regarded as a suggestion only. There may be times when the navigation system displays the vehicles location incorrectly, fails to suggest the shortest route, or fails to direct you to your desired destination. In such instances, rely on your own judgement taking into account the driving conditions at the time.

Do not use the navigation system to locate emergency services. The data- base does not contain a complete listing of emergency services such as police stations, fire stations, hospi- tals and walk-in clinics. Please show discretion and ask for directions in such instances.

As the driver, you alone are respon- sible for your driving safety.

In order to avoid a traffic accident, do not operate the system while driving.

In order to avoid a traffic accident, operate the system only when the vehicle is stopped at a safe place and the parking brake is on.

In order to avoid a traffic accident or traffic offence, remember that actual road conditions and traffic regulations take precedence over the information contained on the navigation system.

Map settings 3-13

The software may contain inaccu- rate or incomplete information due to the passage of time, chang- ing circumstances, and the sources of information used. Please respect current traffic con- ditions and regulations at all times while driving.

Where actual road conditions and highway regulations differ from the information contained on the navigation system, abide by the highway regulations.

Keep the amount of time spent viewing the screen while driving to a strict minimum.

The navigation system does not provide, nor rep- resent in any way information on: traffic and highway regulations; technical aspects of the ve- hicle including weight, height, width, load and speed limits; road conditions including grade, percentage of incline and surface conditions; obstacles such as the height and width of bridges and tunnels; and other current driving or road conditions. Always rely on your own judge- ment when driving a car, taking into account cur- rent driving conditions.

MY POINTS OF INTEREST/USER- DEFINED POINTS OF INTEREST (POIs) A point of interest (POI) in the My Points of Inter- est database is a specific location of interest such as a gas station or bank. The POI consists of a longitude value, a latitude value and a name.

Additional POIs can be added to the system us- ing the vehicles USB port. For more information about using the USB port, see your vehicles owners manual.

The POIs can be set as a destination or be setup to activate POI warnings that display a pop-up message when the vehicle approaches certain areas such as hazard spot warnings.

NOTE:

In order to save the user-defined points of in- terest data, a USB mass storage device is required. The user-defined points of interest data cannot be saved on the SD-card which contains the navigation data.

User-defined points of interest are not shown in the map representation.

The system recognizes the user-defined points of interest (POI) data and then asks the user via a pop-up message if the data needs to be downloaded into the system.

If you confirm the download, the available user Points of Interest in the system internal memory will be deleted and the new ones in the USB mass storage device will be down- loaded into the internal memory of the system.

The progress of the download is shown by a progress-bar. When the download is finished, the user is notified that the USB mass storage device can be removed.

This system is primarily designed to help you reach your destination, and it performs other functions as outlined in this manual. However the driver must use the system safely and properly. Information concerning road conditions, traffic signs and the availability of services may not al- ways be up-to-date. The system is not a substi- tute for safe, proper and legal driving.

Before using the navigation system, please read the following safety information. Always use the system as outlined in this manual.

m WARNING When the driver wants to operate the

navigation system, first park the ve- hicle in a safe location and set the parking brake. Operating the system while driving can distract the driver and may result in a serious accident.

Do not rely on route guidance alone. Always be sure that all driving ma- neuvers are legal and safe in order to avoid accidents.

Do not disassemble or modify this system. If you do, it may result in accidents, fire or electrical shock.

Do not use this system if you notice any malfunctions such as a frozen screen or lack of sound. Continued use of the system may result in accidents, fire or electrical shock.

If you notice any foreign objects in the system hardware, spill liquid on the system or notice smoke or a smell, stop using the system immedi- ately and contact a NISSAN dealer. Ignoring such conditions may lead to accidents, fire or electrical shock.

CAUTION Some states or provinces may have

laws limiting the use of video screens while driving. Use this sys- tem only where it is legal to do so.

NOTE:

Do not keep the navigation system running with the engine stopped. Doing so may discharge the vehicle battery. When you use the navigation system, always keep the engine running.

ROUTE GUIDANCE The main features of the NISSAN Navigation System are visual guidance and voice guidance in selected map coverage areas. Utilizing a net- work of GPS (Global Positioning System) satellites, the NISSAN Navigation System tracks the location on the map and navigates to a pre- ferred location.

Once you set the destination in a map coverage area, the NISSAN Navigation System will calcu- late a route from your current location to your destination. The real-time map display and turn- by-turn voice guidance leads the driver along the route. These features can be especially helpful when driving to unfamiliar locations.

The system may be unable to set a destination and/or calculate a route when the destination is outside the map coverage area. Additionally, voice guidance may not be available if the desti- nation is outside the map coverage area. For more information on how to set a destination, re- fer to Section 4.

SAFETY INFORMATION FEATURES OF THIS NAVIGATION SYSTEM

6-2 General system information

POINTS OF INTEREST DIRECTORY The NISSAN Navigation System offers an exten- sive Points of Interest directory in map coverage areas. This directory includes a wide variety of destinations. By accessing the Points of Interest directory, you can search for addresses for a destination, and just by pushing a button, the NISSAN Navigation System will calculate a route to the destination.

The Points of Interest directory has many uses. For example, the directory can be sorted by the various types of restaurants near your current location. If you need a bank or a gas station, the NISSAN Navigation System can navigate you to the closest preferred location using the Points of Interest entered in the system.

SETTING A DESTINATION FROM POINTS OF INTEREST (page 4-9)

ADDRESS BOOK The address book can store up to 50 locations from map coverage areas into a personal directory. This is especially useful for frequently visited locations, such as clients, relatives and friends. The address book function allows easy access to frequently visited locations when set- ting them as your destination.

SETTING A DESTINATION FROM THE ADDRESS BOOK (page 4-17)

SIRIUSXM TRAFFIC INFORMATION When available, the SiriusXM Traffic Information broadcast may help to avoid delays due to traffic incidents. Traffic jams, roadwork, closed roads around the current location, etc. are represented graphically on the map by icons depicting the nature of the event. Incidents on the route are automatically displayed when they are approached.

The SiriusXM Traffic Information feature, via the guidance mode, may help to detour around traffic problems. For more information on the SiriusXM Traffic Information feature, refer to section 4.

VOICE GUIDANCE Route guidance is provided through voice and visual instructions. Voice guidance announces the appropriate directions when approaching an intersection at which you need to turn. To repeat the voice guidance, touch the Voice key.

The voice guidance can be alternately enabled or disabled by touching and holding the Voice key on the screen for about two seconds. When the voice guidance is disabled, the Voice key on the screen will appear grayed out.

General system information 6-3

DISPLAY OF CURRENT VEHICLE LOCATION

This navigation system combines the data ob- tained from the vehicle (by gyro sensor) and from GPS (Global Positioning System) satellites to calculate the current location of the vehicle. This position is then displayed throughout route guid- ance to a destination.

WHAT IS GPS (Global Positioning System)?

GPS is a position detecting system that uses satellites deployed by the U.S. government. This navigation system receives radio signals from three or more different satellites that orbit 13,049 miles (21,000 km) above the earth in space, and detects the position of the vehicle by utilizing the principle of triangulation.

DETAILED MAP COVERAGE (MCA) FOR THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM This system is designed to help you reach your destination, and also performs other functions as outlined in this manual. However, you, the driver, must use the system safely and properly. Infor- mation concerning road conditions, traffic signs and the availability of services may not always be up-to-date. The system is not a substitute for safe, proper, and legal driving.

Map data is available on the provided SD-card. For information about the map SD-card, contact a NISSAN dealer or call the NISSAN NAVIGA- TION SYSTEM HELPDESK. See the contact in- formation on the inside front cover of this manual.

Map data includes 2 types of areas: Detailed coverage areas providing all detailed road data and other areas showing Main roads only.

NOTE:

Detailed map data is not available in many areas and is generally limited to select ma- jor metropolitan areas.

WHEN A GRAY ROAD IS DIS- PLAYED ON THE MAP Route calculation may not be possible when a

destination or the current vehicle location is near a gray road.

Route guidance (enlarged view and voice guidance) may not be available at the inter- section where the road your vehicle is driving on and a gray road intersect.

Places information and street names near gray roads are not contained in the map data.

The NISSAN Navigation System may not cal- culate a route if the current vehicle location is too far away from the destination. In this case, please divide your trip by selecting one or two intermediate destinations.

To reach your destination, refer to the map screen. Always follow actual roads and regu- lations and drive safely.

The suggested route may not be the shortest, nor are other circumstances such as traffic jams considered unless the SiriusXM Traffic is active.

Because of the inevitable difference in road conditions and circumstances between the time you use this system and the time the in- formation was produced for the map data, there may be discrepancies in roads and regulations. In such cases, follow the actual information available.

During route calculation, the map will not scroll, however the vehicle icon will move with the actual vehicles movement.

In some cases, after the calculation is complete, the calculated route may not be im- mediately displayed.

If you scroll the map while the suggested route is being drawn, it may take more time to finish drawing.

CURRENT VEHICLE LOCATION ROUTE CALCULATION

6-4 General system information

If waypoints are set, the system calculates multiple routes between waypoints simultaneously, and the following may result.

If one section between waypoints cannot be calculated, none of the route will be displayed.

The route may not connect completely at some waypoints.

The route may require a U-turn close to some waypoints.

Route calculation may not be completed in the following cases.

If there is no main road within a range of 1.5 miles (2.5 km) from the vehicle, a message will then appear on the screen. Try recalculating when the vehicle is closer to a main road.

If the vehicle is too close to the destina- tion or if there are no roads to the destination, a message will then appear on the screen.

If it is impossible to reach the destination or waypoints because of traffic regulations, etc.

If the only target route to the destination or waypoints is extremely complicated.

The following may occur when the route is displayed.

If you calculate a route on a main road, the starting point of the route may not ex- actly match the current vehicle location.

The endpoint of the route may not exactly match the destination.

If you calculate a route on a main road, the system may display a route from an- other main road. This may be because the position of the vehicle icon is not accurate. In this case, park the vehicle in a safe location and reset the vehicle icon, or continue driving to see if the position of the vehicle icon is automatically ad- justed before recalculating the route.

VEHICLE ICON (page 7-3)

In some cases, the system shows an in- direct route to the destination or way- points if you set them from stored or places information. In order to correct, you must be careful about the traffic direction, especially when lanes with dif- ferent travel directions are shown separately, such as interchanges and service areas.

Even if the freeway preference is set to OFF, a route that uses the freeway may be suggested.

Even if the preference is set to OFF, a route that uses a ferry line may be suggested.

Ferry lines, excluding those that are only for pedestrians, bicycles and motorcycles, are stored in this system. Take into consideration the travel time re- quired and operational condition before deciding whether to use the route.

General system information 6-5

BASICS OF VOICE GUIDANCE The voice guidance announces which direction to follow when approaching an intersection where a turn is required.

After setting the route, select Start to begin route guidance.

During route guidance, the system navigates you through the guide points using visual and voice guidance.

NOTE:

The navigation system visual and voice guid- ance is for reference purposes only. The con- tents of the guidance may be inappropriate depending on the situation.

There may be some cases in which voice guidance and actual road conditions do not correspond. This may occur because of dis- crepancies between the actual road and the information on the map data, or due to the ve- hicles speed.

In case voice guidance does not correspond to the actual road conditions, follow the infor- mation obtained from traffic signs or noticed on the road.

Route guidance provided by the navigation system does not take carpool lane driving into consideration, especially when carpool lanes are separated from other road lanes.

DIRECTIONS PROVIDED AND THE DISTANCES TO GUIDE POINTS Directions will differ, depending on the road type.

INFO:

Distances may vary, depending on the vehicle speed.

Notification when approaching the destination Ordinary road:

The voice guidance will warn you when ap- proaching your destination. To reach your desti- nation precisely, refer to the map screen.

REPEATING VOICE GUIDANCE This function is available throughout route guidance, from the time after the route calcula- tion is completed until the vehicle arrives at the destination.

Touch the Voice key.

Voice guidance will be repeated.

INFO:

If you touch the Voice key when you have deviated from the suggested route, voice guidance will announce, Proceed to the highlighted route.

If you touch the Voice key when you are go- ing in the wrong direction, voice guidance will announce: Please make a legal U-turn if possible.

NOTES ON VOICE GUIDANCE Voice guidance in this system should be re-

garded as a supplementary function. When driving your vehicle, check the route on the map and follow the actual roads and traffic regulations.

Voice guidance is activated only for intersec- tions with certain conditions.

There may be cases where the vehicle has to turn, but voice guidance is not provided.

Voice guidance contents may vary, depending on the direction of the turn and the type of intersection.

The voice guidance timing will vary depending on the situation.

ROUTE GUIDANCE

6-6 General system information

When the vehicle has deviated from the sug- gested route, voice guidance is not available. The system will not announce this to you. Re- fer to the map and recalculate the route.

Voice guidance may not accurately corre- spond with road numbers and directions at freeway junctions.

Voice guidance may not accurately corre- spond to street names at freeway exits.

The displayed street names may sometimes differ from the actual names, or UNKNOWN STREET NAME may be displayed.

Voice guidance is not available when the fea- ture is disabled in the SETTINGS menu.

Voice guidance will start when the vehicle en- ters the suggested route. Refer to the map for directions to the starting point of the route.

When approaching a waypoint, voice guid- ance will announce, You have reached your intermediate destination on the (left/right) side. Voice guidance will switch to the next section of the route. When voice guidance is not available, refer to the map for directions.

In some cases, voice guidance ends before arrival at the destination. Refer to the destina- tion icon on the map to reach the destination.

If the system recognizes on which side the destination (waypoint) is located, voice guid- ance will announce on the right/left after an- nouncing the arrival at the destination.

Voice guidance may be partially operational or inoperative due to the angle of roads at an intersection.

Because it is not possible to consider data concerning roads that are seasonally available or unavailable, a route may be displayed that does not match the actual traffic restrictions. Be sure to follow the actual traffic restrictions while driving.

Canada and Alaska contain many roads with incomplete map data. As a result, when searching for a route, the route may include roads with incomplete data. In regions where road data is not complete, voice guidance may stop for long periods of time. Be sure to follow the actual traffic restrictions while driving.

The display is a liquid crystal display and should be handled with care.

m WARNING Never disassemble the display. Some parts utilize extremely high voltage. Touching them may result in serious personal injury.

CHARACTERISTICS OF A LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY

If the temperature inside the vehicle is espe- cially low, the display will stay relatively dim or the movement of the images may be slow. These conditions are normal. The display will function normally when the interior of the ve- hicle has warmed up.

Some pixels in the display are darker or brighter than others. This condition is an in- herent characteristic of liquid crystal displays, and it is not a malfunction.

A remnant of the previous display image may remain on the screen. This screen burn is in- herent in displays, and it is not a malfunction.

INFO:

The screen may become distorted by strong magnetic fields.

HOW TO HANDLE THE DISPLAY

General system information 6-7

MAINTENANCE OF THE DISPLAY

CAUTION To clean the display, never use a

rough cloth, alcohol, benzine, thinner, any kind of solvent, or paper tissues with chemical cleaning agent. They would scratch or deteriorate the panel.

Do not splash any liquid such as wa- ter or car fragrance on the display. Contact with liquid will cause the system to malfunction and damage the hardware.

For cleaning, use a dry soft cloth. If additional cleaning is necessary, use a small amount of neutral detergent with a soft cloth. Never spray the screen with water or detergent. Dampen the cloth first, then wipe the screen.

BASIC OPERATIONS

7-2 Troubleshooting guide

Symptom Possible cause Possible solution

Names of roads and locations differ between 2D and 3D mode.

This is because the quantity of the displayed information is reduced so that the screen does not become difficult to read. There is also a chance that names of the roads or locations may be displayed several times, and the names appearing on the screen may be different because of a processing procedure.

This is not a malfunction.

The vehicle icon is not displayed in the correct position.

The vehicle was transported after the ignition switch was turned off by a ferry or car transporter, for example.

Drive the vehicle for a while on a road where GPS signals can be received.

The position and direction of the vehicle icon may be incor- rect depending on the driving environments and the levels of positioning accuracy of the navigation system.

This is not a malfunction. Drive the vehicle for a while to auto- matically correct the position and direction of the vehicle icon.

CURRENT VEHICLE LOCATION (page 6-4)

When the vehicle is traveling on a new road, the vehicle icon is located on another road nearby.

The system automatically places the vehicle icon on the near- est available road, because the new road is not stored in the map data.

Updated road information will be included in the next version of the map SD-card.

The map does not scroll even when the vehicle is moving.

The current location map screen is not displayed. Press the MAP button.

The vehicle icon is not displayed. The current location map screen is not displayed. Press the MAP button.

The GPS indicator on the screen remains gray. GPS signals cannot be received under certain conditions, such as in a parking garage, on a road with many tall buildings, etc.

Drive on an open, straight road for a while.

A sufficient number of GPS satellites is not available. Wait for the satellites to move to locations available for the navi- gation system.

VEHICLE ICON

Troubleshooting guide 7-3

Symptom Possible cause Possible solution

The location of the vehicle icon is misaligned from the actual position.

When using tire chains or replacing the tires, speed calcula- tions based on the speed sensor may be incorrect.

Drive the vehicle for a while (at approximately 19 MPH [30 km/h] for about 30 minutes) to automatically correct the vehicle icon position. If this does not correct the vehicle icon position, con- tact a NISSAN dealer.

The map data has a mistake or is incomplete (the vehicle icon position is always misaligned in the same area).

Updated road information will be included in the next version of the map data.

7-4 Troubleshooting guide

Symptom Possible cause Possible solution

The message Error appears. The SD-card is not recognized by the system. Replace the map SD-card if you see any damage.

In the automatic reroute calculation, the waypoint is not included.

A waypoint that you have already passed is not included in the auto- matic reroute calculation.

If you want to go to that waypoint again, you need to add it back to the route.

Route information is not displayed. Route calculation has not yet been performed. Set the destination and perform route calculation.

The vehicle is not on the suggested route. Drive on the suggested route.

Route guidance is cancelled. Turn on route guidance.

The automatic reroute calculation (or detour calculation) suggests the same route as the one previously suggested.

Route calculations took priority conditions into consideration, but the same route was calculated.

This is not a malfunction.

The suggested route is not displayed. Roads near the destination cannot be calculated. Reset the destination to a main or ordinary road, and recalculate the route.

The starting point and destination are too close. Set a more distant destination.

The starting point and destination are too far away. Divide the trip by selecting one or two intermediate destinations, and perform route calculations multiple times.

An indirect route is suggested. If there are restrictions (such as one-way streets) on roads close to the starting point or destination, the system may suggest an indirect route.

Adjust the location of the starting point or destination.

The system may suggest an indirect route because route calculation does not take into consideration some areas such as narrow streets (gray roads).

Reset the destination to a main or ordinary road, and recalculate the route.

The landmark information does not correspond to the actual information.

This may be caused by insufficient or incorrect data on the map SD-card.

Updated information will be included in the next ver- sion of the map SD-card.

The suggested route does not exactly connect to the starting point or destination.

There is no data for route calculation closer to these locations. Set the starting point and destination on a main road, and perform route calculation.
