System DescriptionINFOID:0000000005146227
NOTE:
Refer to NAVI System Owner's Manual for system operation.
The navigation system periodically calculates the vehicl e's current position according to the following three
signals: Travel distance of the vehicle as determined by the vehicle speed sensor, turning angle of the vehicle
as determined by the gyroscope (angular velocity sensor), and the direction of vehicle travel as determined by
the GPS antenna (GPS information).
The current position of the vehicle is then identified by comparing the calculated vehicle position with map data
read from the map data, which is stored in the har d disk drive (HDD)(map-matching), and indicated on the
screen with a current-location mark.
By comparing the vehicle position detection results found by the
GPS and by map-matching, more accurate vehicle position data can
be used.
The current vehicle position will be calculated by detecting the dis-
tance the vehicle moved from the previous calculation point and its
direction.
TRAVEL DISTANCE
Travel distance calculations are based on the vehicle speed input signal. Therefore, the calculation may
become incorrect as the tires wear down. To prevent this, an automatic distance fine adjustment function has
been adopted.
TRAVEL DIRECTION
Change in the travel direction of the vehicle is calculated by a gyroscope (angular velocity sensor) and a GPS
antenna (GPS information). As the gyroscope and GP S antenna have both merit and demerit, input signals
from them are prioritized in each situation. However, this order of priority may change in accordance with more
detailed travel conditions so that the travel direction is detected more accurately.

NAVIGATION SYSTEM
MAP–MATCHING
Map–matching is a function that repositions the vehicle on the road
map when a new location is judged to be the most accurate. This is
done by comparing the current vehicle position, calculated by the
method described in the position detection principle, with the road
map data around the vehicle, read from the map data stored on the
HDD.
Therefore, the vehicle position may not be corrected after the vehicle
is driven over a certain distance or time in which GPS information is
hard to receive. In this case, the current-location mark on the display
must be corrected manually.
CAUTION:
The road map data is based on data stored on the HDD.
• In map-matching, alternative rout
es to reach the destination will be
shown and prioritized, after the road on which the vehicle is cur-
rently driven has been judged and the current-location mark has
been repositioned.
If there is an error in distance and/or direction, the alternative
routes will be shown in different order of priority, and the wrong
road can be avoided.
If two roads are running in parallel, they are of the same priority.
Therefore, the current-location mark may appear on either of them
alternately, depending on maneuvering of the steering wheel and
configuration of the road.
• Map-matching does not function correctly when the road on which the vehicle is driving is new and not recorded on the HDD, or when
the road pattern stored in the m ap data and the actual road pattern
are different due to repair.
When driving on a road not present in the map, the map-matching
function may find another road and position the current-location
mark on it. Then, when the correct road is detected, the current-
location mark may leap to it.
• Effective range for comparing the vehicle position and travel direc-
tion calculated by the distance and direction with the road data
read from the HDD is limited. Therefore, when there is an exces-
sive gap between the current vehicle position and the position on
the map, correction by map-matching is not possible.
GPS (GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM)
GPS (Global Positioning System) has been developed and con-
trolled by the US Department of Defense. The system utilizes GPS
satellite (NAVSTAR), sending out radio waves while flying on an orbit
around the earth at the height of approx. 21,000 km (13,000 miles).
The GPS receiver calculates the vehicle's position in three dimen-
sions (latitude/longitude/altitude) according to the time lag of the
radio waves received from four or more GPS satellites (three-dimen-
sional positioning). If radio waves were received only from three
GPS satellites, the GPS receiver calculates the vehicle's position in
two dimensions (latitude/longitude), utilizing the altitude data calcu-
lated previously by using radio wa ves from four or more GPS satel-
lites (two-dimensional positioning).
Type Advantage Disadvantage
Gyroscope (angular velocity sensor) • Can detect the vehicle's turning angle quite
accurately. • Direction errors may accumulate when the ve-
hicle is driven for long distances without stop-
ping.
GPS antenna (GPS information) • Can detect the vehicle's travel direction
(North/South/East/West). • Correct direction cannot be detected when the
vehicle speed is low.

Road config-
uration Y–intersections
At a Y intersection or similar gradual divi-
sion of roads, an error in the direction of
travel deduced by the sensor may result in
the current-location mark appearing on the
wrong road.
If after travelling about 10 km (6
miles) the correct location has
not been restored, perform lo-
cation correction and, if neces-
sary, direction correction.
Spi ral roa ds
When driving on a large, continuous spiral
road (such as loop bridge), turning angle
error is accumulated and the vehicle mark
may deviate from the correct location.
Straight roads When driving on a long, straight road and
slow curve without stopping, map-matching
does not work effectively enough and dis-
tance errors may accumulate. As a result,
the vehicle mark may deviate from the cor-
rect location when the vehicle is turned at a
corner.
Zigzag roads When driving on a zigzag road, the map
may be matched to other roads in the simi-
lar direction nearby at every turn, and the
vehicle mark may deviate from the correct
location.
Roads laid out in a grid pattern When driving where roads are laid out in a
grid pattern, or where many roads are run-
ning in the similar direction nearby, the map
may be matched to them by mistake and
the vehicle mark may deviate from the cor-
rect location.
Parallel roads When two roads are running in parallel
(such as highway and sideway), the map
may be matched to the other road by mis-
take and the vehicle mark may deviate from
the correct location.

Place In a parking lot
When driving in a parking lot, or other loca-
tion where there are no roads on the map,
matching may place the vehicle mark on a
nearby road. When the vehicle returns to
the road, the vehicle mark may have devi-
ated from the correct location.
When driving in circle or turning the steer-
ing wheel repeatedly, direction errors accu-
mulate, and the vehicle mark may deviate
from the correct location.
If after travelling about 10 km (6
miles) the correct location has
not been restored, perform lo-
cation correction and, if neces-
sary, direction correction.
Turntable
When the ignition switch is OFF, the navi-
gation system cannot get the signal from
the gyroscope (angular speed sensor).
Therefore, the displayed direction may be
wrong and the correct road may not be eas-
ily returned to after rotating the vehicle on a
turntable with the ignition OFF.
Slippery roads On snow, wet roads, gravel, or other roads
where tires may slip easily, accumulated
mileage errors may cause the vehicle mark
to deviate from the correct road.
Slopes When parking in sloped garages, when
travelling on banked roads, or in other cas-
es where the vehicle turns when tilted, an
error in the turning angle will occur, and the
vehicle mark may deviate from the road.
Map data Road not displayed on the map screen
When driving on new roads or other roads
not displayed on the map screen, map
matching does not function correctly and
matches the location to a nearby road.
When the vehicle returns to a road which is
on the map, the vehicle mark may deviate
from the correct road.
Different road pattern
(Changed due to repair) If the road pattern stored in the map data
and the actual road pattern are different,
map matching does not function correctly
and matches the location to a nearby road.
The vehicle mark may deviate from the cor-
rect road.
Vehicle Use of tire chains When tire chains are used, the mileage is
not correctly detected, and the vehicle mark
may deviate from the correct road.Drive the vehicle for a while. If
the distance still deviates, ad-
just it by using the distance ad-
justment function. (If the tire
chain is removed, recover the
original value.)

NORMAL OPERATING CONDITION
Location Correction by Map-Matching is Slow
• The map-matching function needs to refer to the data of the surrounding area. It is necessary to drive some
distance for the function to work.
• Because map-matching operates on this principle, when there are many roads running in similar directions
in the surrounding area, no matching determination ma y be made. The location may not be corrected until
some special feature is found.
Name of Road is Not Displayed
The current road name may not be displayed if there are no road names displayed on the map screen.
Contents of Display Differ for Bi rdview™ and the (Flat) Map Screen
Difference of the BIRDVIEW™ screen from the flat map screen are as follows.
• The current place name displays names which are primarily in the direction of vehicle travel.
• The amount of time before the vehicle travel or turn angle is updated on the screen is longer than for the
(flat) map display.
• The conditions for display of place names, roads, and other data are different for nearby areas and for more
distant areas.
• Some thinning of the character data is done to prevent the display becoming too complex. In some cases
and in some locations, the display contents may differ.
• The same place name, street name, et c. may be displayed multiple times.
Vehicle Mark Shows a Position Which is Completely Wrong
In the following cases, the vehicle mark may appear on completely different position in the map depending on
the GPS satellite signal receiving conditions. In this case, perform location correction and direction correction.
• When location correction has not been done
- If the receiving conditions of the GPS satellite signal is poor, if the vehicle mark becomes out of place, it may
move to a completely different location and not come back if location correction is not done. The position will
be corrected if the GPS signal can be received.
• When the vehicle has traveled by ferry, or when the vehicle has been being towed
Precautions
for driving Just after the engine is started
If the vehicle is driven just after the engine
is started when the gyroscope (angular
speed sensor) correction is not completed,
the vehicle can lose its direction and may
have deviated from the correct location. Wait for a short while before
driving after starting the engine.
Continuous driving without stopping When driving long distances without stop- ping, direction errors may accumulate, and
the current-location mark may deviate from
the correct road. Stop and adjust the orientation.
Abusive driving Spinning the wheels or engaging in other
kinds of abusive driving may result in the
system being unable perform correct detec-
tion, and may cause the vehicle mark to de-
viate from the correct road. If after travelling about 10 km (6
miles) the correct location has
not been restored, perform lo-
cation correction and, if neces-
sary, direction correction.
How to cor-
rect location Position correction accuracy
If the accuracy of location settings is poor,
accuracy may be reduced when the correct
road cannot be found, particularly in places
where there are many roads. Enter in the road displayed on
the screen with an accuracy of
approx. 1mm.
Caution: Whenever possible,
use detailed map for the correc-
tion.
Direction when location is corrected
If the accuracy of location settings during
correction is poor, accuracy may be re-
duced afterwards. Perform direction correction.

- Because calculation of the current location cannot be done when traveling with the ignition off, for example when traveling by ferry or when being towed, the location before travel is displayed. If the precise location
can be detected with GPS, the location will be corrected.
Vehicle Mark Jumps
In the following cases, the vehicle mark may appear to ju mp as a result of automatic correction of the current
location.
• When map matching has been done
- If the current location and the vehicle mark are diff erent when map matching is done, the vehicle mark may
seem to jump. At this time, the location may be “corre cted” to the wrong road or to a location which is not on
a road.
• When GPS location correction has been done
- If the current location and the vehicle mark are diff erent when the location is corrected using GPS measure-
ments, the vehicle mark may seem to jump. At this time, the location may be “corrected” to a location which
is not on a road.
Vehicle Mark is in a River or Sea
The navigation system moves the vehicle mark with no distinction between land and rivers or sea. If the vehi-
cle mark is somehow out of place, it may appear that the vehicle is driving in a river or the sea.
Vehicle Mark Automatically Rotates
The system wrongly memorizes the rotating status as st opping when the ignition switch is turned ON with the
turntable rotating. That causes the vehicl e mark to rotate when the vehicle is stopped.
When Driving on Same Road, Sometimes Vehicle Mark is in Right Place and Sometimes it is in Wrong Place
The conditions of the GPS antenna (GPS data) and gyroscope (angular speed sensor) change gradually.
Depending on the road traveled and the operation of the steering wheel, the location detection results will be
different. Therefore, even on a road on which the lo cation has never been wrong, conditions may cause the
vehicle mark to deviate.

Precaution for Supplemental Restraint Syst
em (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000005358679
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “A IR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. This system includes seat belt switch inputs and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS
system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front
air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and w hether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SR and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WARNING:
• To avoid rendering the SRS inopera tive, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in
the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be performed by
an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
• Improper maintenance, including in correct removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal
injury caused by unintent ional activation of the system. For re moval of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the SR section.
• Do not use electrical test equipmen t on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harn esses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or har-
ness connectors.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING POWER TOOLS (AIR OR ELECTRIC) AND HAMMERS
WARNING:
• When working near the Airbag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Airbag System sensors with the Igni-
tion ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electri c power tools or strike near the sensor(s) with a
hammer. Heavy vibration could activate the sensor( s) and deploy the air bag(s), possibly causing
serious injury.
• When using air or electric power tools or hammers , always switch the Ignition OFF, disconnect the
battery, and wait at least 3 minu tes before performing any service.
Precaution Necessary for Steering W heel Rotation After Battery Disconnect
INFOID:0000000005327545
NOTE:
• This Procedure is applied only to models with Intelligent Key system and NATS (NISSAN ANTI-THEFT SYS-
TEM).
• Remove and install all control units after disconnecting both battery cables with the ignition knob in the
″LOCK ″ position.
• Always use CONSULT-III to perform self-diagnosis as a part of each function inspection after finishing work.
If DTC is detected, perform trouble diagnosis according to self-diagnostic results.
For models equipped with the Intelligent Key system and NATS, an electrically controlled steering lock mech-
anism is adopted on the key cylinder.
For this reason, if the battery is disconnected or if the battery is discharged, the steering wheel will lock and
steering wheel rotation will become impossible.
If steering wheel rotation is required when battery pow er is interrupted, follow the procedure below before
starting the repair operation.
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Connect both battery cables. NOTE:
Supply power using jumper cables if battery is discharged.
2. Use the Intelligent Key or mechanical key to turn the ignition switch to the ″ACC ″ position. At this time, the
steering lock will be released.
3. Disconnect both battery cables. The steering lock will remain released and the steering wheel can be rotated.
4. Perform the necessary repair operation.
