BASIC OPERATION

ROUTE GUIDANCE
The main features of the NISSAN Navigation
System are visual guidance and voice guidance
in selected map coverage areas. Utilizing a
network of GPS (Global Positioning System)
satellites, the NISSAN Navigation System tracks
the location on the map and navigates to a
preferred location.
Once the destination is set in a map coverage
area, the NISSAN Navigation System will
calculate a route from the current location to
the destination. The real-time map display and
turn-by-turn voice guidance leads the driver
along the route. These features can be espe-
cially 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
destination is outside the map coverage area.
For more information on how to set a destina-
tion, refer to section 4.
PLACES OF INTEREST (Places) DI-
RECTORY
The NISSAN Navigation System offers an
extensive places of interest (Places) directory
in map coverage areas. This directory includes a
wide variety of destinations ranging from gas
stations, ATMs, and restaurants to casinos, ski
resorts, shopping centers and businesses. A
point of interest can be searched by category,
name or phone number. After selecting a
destination, the NISSAN Navigation System will
calculate a route to that destination.
The Places directory has many uses. For
example, the directory can be sorted by the
various types of restaurants near the current
location. If an ATM or gas station is needed, the
NISSAN Navigation System can navigate to the
closest preferred location.
For more information on how to use the Places
directory, refer to section 4.
ADDRESS BOOK
The Address Book can store up to 300 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
setting them as your destination.For more information on how to use the Address
Book, refer to section 6.
AVOID AREA
The Avoid Area function sets areas or freeways
that the NISSAN Navigation System does not
include in the suggested route when calculating
routes. For example, if a freeway or area that is
always congested with traffic.
For more information on the Avoid Area function,
refer to section 6.
XM NavTraffic®INFORMATION
When available, the XM NavTraffic®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 brought to the attention when they
are approached.
The XM NavTraffic
®Information feature, via the
guidance mode, may help to detour around
traffic problems. For more information on the XM
NavTraffic
®Information feature, refer to section
6.

Navigation2-47

.[Use Ferries]:
Includes the use of ferries.
. [Use Learned Routes]:
Uses the roads that are most frequently
traveled with the help of self-learning
technology.
. [Auto Reroute]:
If the vehicle deviates from the suggested
route, the system automatically recalculates
a route that leads the vehicle to the
suggested route.
INFO:
. The recalculated route may not be the
shortest route because the system priori-
tizes roads that are easy to drive for safety
reasons.
. If route conditions are set from [Route
Settings], all sections in the route are
subject to the same route conditions even
though different route conditions have been
set for different sections in [Edit/Add to
Route].
. If [Use Time Restricted Roads] is deacti-
vated, the system calculates a route without
any consideration of the regulations con-
cerning the time or day of the week. There-
fore, the suggested route may include a road subject to traffic regulations concerning the
time or day of the week. When driving along
the route, always follow all traffic regulations
regardless of whether [Use Time Restricted
Roads] is set to on or off.
. If the system cannot calculate any alternative
routes, it displays the previous route.
. If the vehicle greatly deviates from the
suggested route, the system calculates a
new route.
. Statistical traffic information is based on
previous traffic data. When the traffic situa-
tion rapidly changes due to unexpected
accidents, construction work, traffic restric-
tions, emergencies, etc., the prediction
accuracy of the system may be reduced.
. Traffic jam information displayed on the map
screen is not statistical traffic information.
. When [Use Statistical Traffic Information] is
turned on, the system may lead to a road
where a traffic jam occurs or to a detour
even though the shortest route does not
have a traffic jam.
. Even when [Use Real Time Traffic Informa-
tion] is turned on, if traffic information has
not been provided for the area, sometimes it
is possible that a detour will not be indicated
in a location where a traffic jam occurs. .
The system may not lead to a detour if traffic
closure or a traffic jam occurs far from the
present location.
. The system calculates to reduce the time
required for the entire route from the start to
the destination. If there are no appropriate
routes, the system may lead to a route where
a traffic jam occurs instead of leading to a
detour.
. This system can learn and memorize the
route that is most frequently used. However,
despite driving on the same route several
times so that the system can learn the route,
the system may have difficulty learning the
route under the following conditions.
— [Use Time Restricted Roads] is set to on.
— [Use Real Time Traffic Information] is set
to on.

AUDIO OPERATION PRECAUTIONS
Radio
Push the ignition switch to the ACC or ON
position and push the radio band select button
to turn on the radio. If you listen to the radio with
the engine not running, the ignition switch
should be pushed to the ACC position.
Radio reception is affected by station signal
strength, distance from radio transmitter, build-
ings, bridges, mountains and other external
influences. Intermittent changes in reception
quality normally are caused by these external
influences.
Using a cellular phone in or near the
vehicle may influence radio reception
quality.
Radio reception:
Your NISSAN radio system is equipped with
state-of-the-art electronic circuits to enhance
radio reception. These circuits are designed to
extend reception range, and to enhance the
quality of that reception.
However there are some general characteristics
of both FM and AM radio signals that can affect
radio reception quality in a moving vehicle, even
when the finest equipment is used. These
characteristics are completely normal in a givenreception area, and do not indicate any mal-
function in your NISSAN radio system.
Reception conditions will constantly change
because of vehicle movement. Buildings, terrain,
signal distance and interference from other
vehicles can work against ideal reception.
Described below are some of the factors that
can affect your radio reception.
Some cellular phones or other devices may
cause interference or a buzzing noise to come
from the audio system speakers. Storing the
device in a different location may reduce or
eliminate the noise.
FM radio reception:
Range: FM range is normally limited to 25 to 30
miles (40 to 48 km) , with monaural (single
channel) FM having slightly more range than
stereo FM. External influences may sometimes
interfere with FM station reception even if the
FM station is within 25 miles (40 km). The
strength of the FM signal is directly related to the
distance between the transmitter and receiver.
FM signals follow a line-of-sight path, exhibiting
many of the same characteristics as light. For
example they will reflect off objects.
Fade and drift: As your vehicle moves away from
a station transmitter, the signals will tend to fade
and/or drift.
Static and flutter: During signal interference from
buildings, large hills or due to antenna position,
usually in conjunction with increased distance
from the station transmitter, static or flutter can
be heard. This can be reduced by lowering the
treble setting to reduce the treble response.
Multipath reception: Because of the reflective
characteristics of FM signals, direct and re-
flected signals reach the receiver at the same
time. The signals may cancel each other,
resulting in momentary flutter or loss of sound.

Compressed Audio Files (MP3/
WMA/AAC/ATRAC3)
Explanation of terms:
. MP3 — MP3 is short for Moving Pictures
Experts Group Audio Layer 3. MP3 is the
most well known compressed digital audio
file format. This format allows for near “CD
quality” sound, but at a fraction of the size of
normal audio files. MP3 conversion of an
audio track can reduce the file size by
approximately a 10:1 ratio (Sampling: 44.1
kHz, Bit rate: 128 kbps) with virtually no
perceptible loss in quality. The compression
reduces certain parts of sound that seem
inaudible to most people.
. WMA — Windows Media Audio (WMA) is a
compressed audio format created by Micro-
soft as an alternative to MP3. The WMA
codec offers greater file compression than
the MP3 codec, enabling storage of more
digital audio tracks in the same amount of
space when compared to MP3s at the same
level of quality.
. AAC/M4A — Advanced Audio Coding
(AAC) is a lossy audio compression format.
Audio files that have been encoded with
AAC are generally smaller in size and deliver
a higher quality of sound than MP3.
