>. The message, “Voice can-
celed” will be announced.
Voice Prompt Interrupt:
Push >to stop the voice prompt and
give the command at once. Remember to wait
for the tone before speaking.
How to speak numbers
NISSAN Voice Recognition requires a certain
way to speak numbers when giving voice
commands. Refer to the following examples.
General rule:
Only single digits 0 (zero) to 9 can be used. For
example, to say 500, “five zero zero” can be
used, but “five hundred” cannot.
Examples:
1-800-662-6200
“One eight zero zero six six two six two zero
zero”
Improving Recognition of Phone numbers:
Recognition of phone numbers can be improved
by saying the phone number in 3 groups of
numbers. For example, to call 800-662-6200, speak “Eight Zero Zero” first, and the system will
then ask to speak the next three digits. Then, say
“Six Six Two”. After recognition, the system will
then ask to speak the last 4 digits. Say, “Six Two
Zero Zero”. Using this method of phone digit
entry can improve recognition performance.
INFO:
For best recognition, speak “zero” for the
number “0” and “oh” for the letter “o”.

10-2General system information
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 gasstations, 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.
NavTraffic INFORMATION
When available, the 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 NavTraffic Information feature, via the
guidance mode, may help to detour around
traffic problems. For more information on the
NavTraffic Information feature, refer to section 5.
AUTOMATIC REROUTE
When detecting a deviation from the suggested
route, the NISSAN Navigation System will
automatically recalculate a new route to the
destination.
For more information on the Automatic reroute
function, refer to section 5.
FEATURES OF THIS NAVIGATION
SYSTEM

DETOUR
To make a detour due to traffic conditions, the
Detour function calculates an alternative route.
The NISSAN Navigation System can calculate a
route using secondary roads that will return to
primary roads after a specified number of miles.
For more information on the Detour function,
refer to section 5.
BirdviewTM
Two map types, the 2D (Plan View) map and
BirdviewTM(3D) map, are available in the
NISSAN Navigation System. BirdviewTMmap
displays the map from an elevated perspective.
In Birdview
TMmap, 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
TMmap, 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 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.

10-4General system information
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 (indicator color: gray) .
*Inside tunnels or parking garages
*Areas with numerous tall buildings
*Under multi-layered highways
*Under many large trees
*In a canyon
INFO:
The GPS antenna is located on the instrument
panel inside the vehicle. Do not place any
objects, especially mobile phones or transcei-
vers, on the instrument panel. Because the
strength of the GPS signal is approximately one
billionth of that of TV waves, phones and
transceivers will affect or may totally disrupt
the signal.
Display of GPS information
GPS information can be displayed.“Viewing GPS current location informa-
tion” (page 7-19)

NOTE:
Route guidance provided by the navigation
system does not take carpool lane driving
into consideration, especially when car-
pool lanes are separated from other road
lanes.
INCORRECT DISPLAY OF VEHICLE
POSITION
The following cases may affect the display
accuracy of the vehicle’s position or traveling
direction. The accuracy will return to normal if
the driving conditions return to normal.
*When there is a similar road nearby.
*When the vehicle is traveling in an area with
a grid pattern road system.
*When the vehicle is passing through a large
Y-shaped intersection/junction.
*When the vehicle is traveling on a contin-
uous, slowly curving road.
*When the vehicle is traveling on a road with
repeating S-shaped curves.
General system information10-5

10-6General system information
*When the vehicle is on a loop bridge.
*When the vehicle is on a snow-covered or
unpaved road.
*When repeatedly turning left or right, or
driving in zigzags.
*When the vehicle is rotated on a parking lot
turntable while the ignition switch is off.
*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 or the hybrid system.
. The vehicle icon may also be misaligned if
different sized tires or tire chains are
installed.
. The system has a function that automatically
corrects the vehicle icon position 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. However, the system
must be used safely and properly. Information
concerning road conditions, 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 in the United States and
Canada.
Map data includes two types of areas: “Detailed
coverage areas” providing all detailed road data
and other areas showing “Main roads only”.
NOTE:
Detailed map data is not available in many
areas and is generally limited to select
major metropolitan areas.
WHEN GRAY ROAD IS DISPLAYED
ON MAP
. When you are driving on a road displayed in
gray after the vehicle has deviated from the
suggested route during route guidance,
automatic rerouting may not start immedi-
ately.
. The navigation system does not provide
route guidance for roads displayed in dark
green. Therefore, if the destination is set on
a road displayed in dark green, the enlarged
map display will return to the ordinary map
screen at some point on a suggested route
that is near the destination. Also, voice
guidance will stop at some point on a
suggested route that is near the destination.
. Places information and street names near
roads displayed in gray may not be con- tained in the map data.
