This system is primarily designed to help you
reach your destination, and it also performs
other functions as outlined in this manual.
However, you, the driver, must use the system
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.
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 or use the
center dial, first park the vehicle in a
safe location and set the parking
brake. 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
maneuvers 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.
. If you notice any foreign objects in
the system hardware, spill liquid on
the system or notice smoke or a
smell coming from it, stop using the
system immediately and contact a
GT-R certified NISSAN dealer. Ignor-
ing such conditions may lead to
accidents, fire or electrical shock.
CAUTION
.Do not use this system if you notice
any malfunctions such as a frozen
screen or the lack of sound. Con-
tinued use of the system may result
in accidents, fire or electrical shock.
. Some states/provinces may have
laws limiting the use of video
screens while driving. Use this sys-
tem only where it is legal to do so.
. Extreme temperature conditions
[below 48F( 208 C) and above
158 8F (70 8C)] could affect the per-
formance of the system.
NOTICE
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.

INFO:
The reading that the brake meter displays when
the pedal is being depressed may vary, depend-
ing on the vehicle speed and road conditions.
The brake meter may not display a reading of
“100%” even when the brake is being fully
depressed. This is not a malfunction.

INFO:
The amount of g-force exerted on the vehicle,
and displayed on the meter, will vary depending
on the driving speed.
Cornering GDisplays the lateral g-force exerted on the
vehicle. In the large panel, this meter displays
readings for the past 20 seconds. In the small
panel, this meter displays the lateral g-force
being exerted on the vehicle at the time of the
reading. When turning to the left, the resulting g-
force is displayed on the right side of the screen.
When turning to the right, the resulting g-force
is displayed on the left side of the screen. The
red zone readings are configured to function as
a guide for smooth driving.

BRAKING SCREENThe braking screen displays the results of how
the vehicle behaves based on the manner in
which the driver operates the vehicle. The
information displayed is for confirmation pur-
poses. The results of how the brake pedal is
used are displayed as a timeline of g-force
exerted on the vehicle during deceleration. Use
the information to improve your operation of the
brake pedal.

How to view the screen&1
BRAKE G (timeline graph):
Displays the deceleration of the g-force
being exerted on the vehicle. The vertical
readout illustrates the progress of accel-
eration and the horizontal readout tracks the
deceleration timeline of the past 20 sec-
onds.
&2
Red zone display:
The color of the graph will change when the
level of g-force exerted on the vehicle while
decelerating exceeds a preset level.
&3
G-meter:
Displays the g-force currently being exerted
due on the vehicle due to deceleration.
&4
SPEED:
Displays the current driving speed.
&5
BRAKE PEDAL:
Displays the brake pedal position.
INFO:
. The reading that the brake meter displays
when the pedal is being depressed may
vary, depending on the vehicle speed and
road conditions. The brake meter may not
display a reading of “100%” even when the
brake is being fully depressed. This is not a
malfunction.
. This panel only displays acceleration infor-
mation when the vehicle is decelerating. It
does not display any acceleration informa-
tion when the vehicle is accelerating.
. Due to the slope of a road, this meter may
register g-force even when the vehicle is
stopped. This is not a malfunction.
. When the VDC or the ABS is activated, a
mark will appear on the far left side of the
panel (large panel only) .
. The scale of the readout is adjusted auto-
matically to accommodate readings that
exceed the upper limit of the meter.

Using result screens to improve
drivingThis section explains how to use the driving
timeline screens. Use this information to make
your driving smoother.
INFO:
The criteria for smooth driving may vary depend-
ing on road conditions. Use this information for
reference purposes only.
Timeline and driving that show smooth
operation of brake pedal:&1
Depressing the brake pedal slowly and
smoothly will result in a smoothly dropping
line.
&2
By gradually depressing the brake pedal,
the angle of the line slopes gently down-
wards.
&3
Slowly releasing the brake pedal results in a
stable deceleration. The timeline display
gradually becomes a straight horizontal line.
&4
When you release the brake pedal slowly,
the line of the braking panel slopes gently
upwards.
Timeline and driving that show sudden
operation of brake pedal:&1
Because the brake pedal is being de-
pressed quickly, the angle of the line drops
off at a steep angle.
&2
Quick application of the brake pedal results
in a steep dropping line.
&3
When the brake pedal is repeatedly
depressed and released, the resulting line
appears wavy.
&4
Because the brake pedal was depressed
quickly the vehicle stopped abruptly. The
graph becomes perpendicular to the time
scale.
