GENERAL INFORMATION FOR
NAVIGATION SYSTEM
CURRENT VEHICLE LOCATION
Display of current vehicle location
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 detect the position of the
vehicle by utilizing the principle of triangula-
tion.
Positioning adjustment:
When the system judges that the vehicle
position 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 GPS signals.
* Inside tunnels or parking garages
*In areas with numerous tall buildings
*Under multi-layered highways
6-56

*When driving on a road not displayed on
the map screen or a road that has been
changed due to additional construction
or other reasons.
*When the GPS positioning accuracy is
low.
INFO:
. The vehicle icon may be misaligned when
starting the vehicle just after starting the
engine.
. The vehicle icon may also be misaligned if
different sized tires or tire chains are
installed.
. The system has a function that auto-
matically corrects the vehicle icon posi-
tion when it is misaligned from the actual
position.
. Vehicle position correction by GPS may
not function when the vehicle is stopped.
. If the vehicle icon position does not
return to normal even after driving for a
while, correct the vehicle icon position
manually.
Detailed Map Coverage Areas
(MCA) for navigation system
This system is designed to help guiding to
the destination, and it also performs other
functions as outlined in this manual. How-
ever, the system must be used safely and
properly. Information concerning road con-
ditions, traffic signs and the availability of
services may not always be up-to-date. The system is not a substitute for safe, proper
and legal driving.
Map data covers select metropolitan areas.
Map data includes two types of areas:
“Detailed coverage areas” providing all de-
tailed road data and other areas showing
“Main roads only”.
INFO:
Detailed map data is not available in many
areas and is generally limited to select major
metropolitan areas.
ROUTE GUIDANCE
INFO:
. The system will announce street names
when the system language is set to
English. Street names are not announced
when the system is set to French or
Spanish.
Repeating voice guidance
This function is available throughout route
guidance, from the time after the route
calculation is completed until the vehicle
arrives at the destination. Push and hold

6. Navigation (if so equipped)
Voice guidance will be repeated.
Notes on voice guidance
.Voice guidance in this system should be
regarded as a supplementary function.
When driving the vehicle, check the route
on the map and follow the actual roads
and traffic regulations.
. Voice guidance is activated only for
intersections with certain conditions.
There may be cases where the vehicle
has to turn, but voice guidance is not
provided.
. Voice guidance contents may vary, de-
pending on the direction of the turn and
the type of intersection.
. The voice guidance timing will vary
depending on the situation.
. When the vehicle has deviated from the
suggested route, voice guidance is not
available. The system will not announce
this. Refer to the map and recalculate the
route.
“Recalculating route” (page 6-36)
. Voice guidance may not accurately cor-
respond with road numbers and direc-
tions at freeway junctions. .
Voice guidance may not accurately cor-
respond to street names at freeway
exits.
. The displayed street names may some-
times differ from the actual names.
. Voice guidance is not available when the
[Guidance Voice] is turned off.
“Volume and Beeps settings”
(page 2-32)
. Voice guidance will start when the
vehicle enters the suggested route. Refer
to the map for directions to the starting
point of the route.
. When approaching a waypoint, voice
guidance will announce, “You have ar-
rived at waypoint 1 (2, 3, 4,...).” 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 destination icon on the map to
reach the destination.
. If the system recognizes on which side
the destination (waypoint) is located,
voice guidance will announce “on the
right/left” after announcing the arrival at the destination.
. Voice guidance may be partially opera-
tional or inoperative due to the angle of
roads at an intersection.
. Because freeway lane information is
available only for approximately 7,000
major freeways in North America, it is
not possible to display information for all
junctions and exits.
. Freeway exit information may differ
from the information on the actual exit
signs.
. Because it is not possible to consider
data concerning roads that are season-
ally 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 driv-
ing.

INFO:
To exit the Voice Recognition System, push
and hold <
>or <>on the steering
wheel.
Operating tips
. Speak a command after the tone.
. If the command is not recognized, the
system will prompt you to speak the
command again. Repeat the command in
a clear voice.
. Touch [
] on the touch screen or push
<> on the steering wheel or the
INFINITI controller to return to the
previous screen.
. To adjust the volume of the system
feedback, push <-
+>on the steering
wheel or turn while the
system is making an announcement.
. When setting a destination for route
guidance with some search methods,
such as POI, Intersection or City Center
search, the search area is automatically
set to the state/province where your
vehicle is located. Change state/pro-
vince to change the search area to
another state/province if necessary. Voice Prompt Interrupt:
In most cases, you can interrupt the voice
feedback to speak the next command by
pushing
<
>on the steering wheel. After
interrupting the system, wait for a tone
before speaking your command.
One Shot Call:
To use the system faster when making a call,
you may speak the second level command
skipping speaking the first level command.
For example, push <
>and say “Redial”
after the tone without first saying “Phone”.
For phone command operation:
. After the command “Call”, a name regis-
tered in the phonebook can be spoken
for recognition, while a phone number
can be spoken after the command “Dial”.
Names from the phonebook cannot be
spoken after the command “Dial”.
. The system has the function to read the
text messages out loud, but misreading
may occur in some cases.
. Even if nicknames such as “Mom” or
“Dad” are registered in the cellular
phone, the Voice Recognition System
recognizes only names. To have the system recognize the nicknames, register
the entries in the [Quick Dial] from the
Phone menu.
“Quick Dial” (page 4-13)
For navigation command operation:
. Depending on the area where the vehicle
is located (such as in Puerto Rico, Guam,
etc.), the system may not recognize the
general navigation commands.
. Points of Interest:
— The POI commands searches for Points of Interest registered in the
navigation system.
— When searching for POI, the search is conducted within the current state/
province or the state/province speci-
fied by “Change State” command. To
change the state/province, speak
“Change State” after the prompt
and then after the next prompt, speak
the name of the state/province for
which you wish to conduct the POI
search. The state/province will be
reset to the current state each time
the voice recognition session is re-
started.
