By using the Avoid Area feature, you can identify
areas or freeways that you would like the
NISSAN Navigation System to avoid when plot-
ting routes. For example, if you know of a freeway
or area that is always congested with traffic, you
can program the NISSAN Navigation System to
plot routes that go around that particular freeway
or area.
For more information on the Avoid Area feature,
please refer to section 8.If you miss a turn while using the Route Guid-
ance feature, the NISSAN Navigation System
will automatically recalculate a new route to your
destination.
For more information on the Automatic Reroute
feature, please refer to section 9.If you hear about a traffic accident on the radio
that is 4 miles (6 km) ahead of you and traffic is
backing up fast, you can use the Detour function
to calculate an alternative route that will help you
avoid the gridlock caused by the traffic accident.
The NISSAN Navigation System has the ability
to find an alternative route using secondary
roads that will return you to primary roads after a
specified number of miles.
