DETOUR
If you want to make a detour due to traffic
conditions, you can use the Detour function to
calculate an alternative route. The NISSAN
Navigation System can calculate a route using
secondary roads that will return you to primary
roads after a specified number of miles.
For more information on the Detour function,
refer to section 5.
BirdviewTM
Two map types, 2-dimensional Plan View and 3-
dimensional BirdviewTM, are available in the
NISSAN Navigation System. BirdviewTMdis-
plays the map from an elevated perspective. In
Birdview
TM, it is easy to recognize an image of
the route because it provides a panoramic view
over a long distance.
For more information on Birdview
TM, refer to
section 3.
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.
For more information on voice guidance, refer to
section 5.
DISPLAY OF CURRENT VEHICLE LO-
CATION
This navigation system combines the data
obtained 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
guidance 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.
Positioning adjustment
When the system judges that the vehicle
position information is not accurate based on
vehicle speed and gyro sensor data calculations,
the system will automatically adjust the position
of the vehicle icon using GPS signals.
Receiving signals from GPS satellites
The reception of GPS signals can be weak,
depending on the environment. Vehicles in the
following areas/environments may not receive

Symptom Possible cause Possible solution
Names of roads and locations differ
between Plan View and Birdview
TM.This is because the quantity of the displayed information is reduced so that
the screen does not become too crowded. There is also a chance that
names of the roads or locations may be displayed multiple 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 pushed off, for
example, by a ferry or car transporter.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 incorrect 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 automatically correct the position and direction of
the vehicle icon.
“CURRENT VEHICLE LOCATION”
(page 10-3)
When the vehicle is traveling on a new
road, the vehicle icon is located on
another road nearby.Because the new road is not stored in the map data, the system
automatically places the vehicle icon on the nearest road available.Updated road information will be included in the next
version of the map data.
The screen does not switch to the night
screen even after turning on the head-
lights.The daytime screen was set the last time the headlights were turned on. Set the screen to the night screen mode using
<Day/Night>when you turn on the headlights.“DISPLAY SETTINGS” (page 8-2)
The map does not scroll even when the
vehicle is moving.The current location map screen is not displayed. Push

The GPS indicator on the screen re-
mains 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.
GPS signals cannot be received because objects are placed on the
instrument panel.Remove the objects from the instrument panel.
A sufficient number of GPS satellites is not available. Please wait for the satellites to move to locations
available for your navigation system.
