11. Destinations are shown based on the dis-tance from the selected position. The arrow
on the right shows the direction of the
destination. The distance shown is a
straight line distance from the city center.
Touch the desired destination from the list. 12. A detailed description of the destination is
provided.
Touch “List” to go back and pick another
destination or touch “Start” to have the sys-
tem calculate the route to the destination.
MY PLACES/USER-DEFINED
POINTS OF INTEREST (POIs)
A point of interest (POI) in the My Places data-
base is a specific location of interest such as a
gas station or bank. The POI consists of a longi-
tude value, a latitude value and a name.
Additional POIs can be added to the system us-
ing the vehicle’s USB port. For more information
about using the USB port, see your vehicle’s
owner’s 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
Places in the system internal memory will be
deleted and the new ones in the USB mass
storage device will be downloaded into the in-
ternal 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.

5File name
POI data can be downloaded from the Internet
or created in a simple text editor in CSV (Comma
Separated Variable) file format.
There are two kinds of POI data supported by
the system:
● User POIs – user-defined points of interest
(POI) that can later be set as a destination
and found using route guidance.
● POI-warnings – user-supplied areas such as
hazard spots that the system displays in a
pop-up window when the vehicle is ap-
proaching the designated area. Perform the following procedure to create your
own User POIs:
1. Connect a USB mass storage device to your personal computer.
2. Use a standard software program to create a list of POIs. Make sure the software can
support the CSV file format.
3. In the first column, enter the longitude value of the position of the POI.
4. In the second column, enter the latitude value of the position of the POI.
5. In the third column, enter the name of the POI. Information entered in the fourth
column, such as address or phone number,
will be appended to the name of the POI.
6. Add more rows if necessary.
7. Save the file with the extension .csv (for example, myplacesfile.csv) .
NOTE:
The name of the .CSV file will be used to
create a My Places category in the system.
Create separate .CSV files with different
names to create other My Places
categories.

8. Make sure to select the USB mass storagedevice as the location to save, using the ex-
act folder name “/myPOIs” for User POIs or
“/myPOIs/myPOIwarnings”
for POI-warnings. For example, if the USB
mass storage device’s root folder is repre-
sented by f:/, save the file to the folder
“f:/myPOIs” for User POIs or to the folder
“f:/myPOIs/myPOIwarnings”
for POI-warnings.
9. Connect the USB mass storage device to the vehicle’s USB port. For more informa-
tion about the USB port, see your vehicle’s
owner’s manual.
Adding user-defined points of interest
(POIs)
Perform the following procedure to add your
User POIs to the system:
1. Press the NAV button.
2. Touch “Destination”.
3. Touch “My Places”. 4. If a USB mass storage device with the new
POI data is connected, the system will auto-
matically ask if you want to transfer the POI
data. Touch “Download” to begin the trans-
fer or “Cancel” to cancel the procedure.
NOTE:
New POI data will overwrite POI data al-
ready in the internal memory.

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.
WARNING
●When the driver wants to operate the
navigation system, first park the ve-
hicle in a safe location and set the
handbrake. 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

Page 73 of 82

●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 SETUP 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.
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.
