lock NISSAN SENTRA 2005 B15 / 5.G Owners Manual

By using the Avoid Area feature, you can identify
areas or freeways that you would like the
NISSAN Navigation System to avoid when plot-
ting routes. For example, if you know of a freeway
or area that is always congested with traffic, you
can program the NISSAN Navigation System to
plot routes that go around that particular freeway
or area.
For more information on the Avoid Area feature,
please refer to section 8.If you miss a turn while using the Route Guid-
ance feature, the NISSAN Navigation System
will automatically recalculate a new route to your
destination.
For more information on the Automatic Reroute
feature, please refer to section 9.If you hear about a traffic accident on the radio
that is 4 miles (6 km) ahead of you and traffic is
backing up fast, you can use the Detour function
to calculate an alternative route that will help you
avoid the gridlock caused by the traffic accident.
The NISSAN Navigation System has the ability
to find an alternative route using secondary
roads that will return you to primary roads after a
specified number of miles.
For more information on the Detour feature,
please refer to section 9.

cIn some cases, after the calculation is
complete, it may take some time to get the
calculated route on the display.
cWaypoints that have been passed will not be
covered by the re-routing calculation.
cIf you scroll the map while the suggested
route is being drawn, it may take more time to
finish drawing.
cIf waypoints are set, the system is calculating
multiple routes between waypoints
simultaneously, and the following may result:
– If one section (or more) of the routes be-
tween the waypoints is not found, none
of the route will be displayed.
– The route may not connect completely at
some waypoints.
– The route may require a U-turn close to
some waypoints.
cRoute calculation may not be completed in
the following cases:
– If there is no main road within 3.1 miles
(5 km) from the vehicle, a message say-
ing so will appear on the screen. Try re-
questing route calculation when the ve-
hicle is closer to the main road.– If there is no main road within 3.1 miles
(5 km) from the destination or waypoint,
a message saying so will appear on the
screen. Try setting the location closer to
the main road.
– If the vehicle is too close to the destina-
tion or if there are no branches of the
roads to the destination. A message say-
ing so will appear on the screen.
– If it is deemed impossible to reach the
destination or waypoints because of traf-
fic regulations, etc.
– If the only route to reach the destination
or waypoints is extremely complicated.
– If the destination, current vehicle position
or waypoint is within the avoid area.
– If the setting of avoid areas covers the
routes to the destination, route calcula-
tion may not be possible.
cThe following may occur when the route is be-
ing displayed:
– If you are requesting a calculation from
the main road, the origin of the route may
not exactly match the current vehicle
position.– If you are requesting a calculation to a
destination on the main road, the end of
the route may not exactly match the
destination.
– If you are requesting a calculation from
the main road, the system may show a
route from another main road. This may
be because the icon to show the current
vehicle position (vehicle icon) is not set
accurately. In that case, park the car in a
safe place and reset the vehicle icon, or
continue driving to see if the vehicle icon
appears on the main road before re-
questing route calculation again.
– There are cases in which the system
shows a detoured route to reach the
destination or waypoints, if you set them
from memory or facility information. In or-
der to correct this, you will have to be
careful about the traffic direction, espe-
cially when the lanes with different travel
directions are shown separately. Such
places are interchanges and service
areas.
– This system makes no distinction be-
tween limited traffic control and total
control (blockage) . It may show a de-
toured route even if the road is usable.

Symptom Possible cause Remedy
Although the system is set with the moving direction as the
preference, it does not find the route by matching the
preference.There is no route found in that direction. This condition is not abnormal.
Route is not indicated. There is no road that can be found by this system close to
the destination.Reset the destination closer to the road displayed in
orange. Especially with roads which have separate lanes
for opposite directions, be careful in setting the destination
or waypoints on it, because results may differ depending
on the lane you choose.
The starting point to the destination is too close. Set more distant destinations.
The present location is about 1,100 miles (1,770 km) away
from the destination.Set the destination to within 1,100 miles (1,770 km) .
The route is not displayed continuously at waypoints, for
example, that are not calculated route from the vehicle’s
current position.Suggested routes may be displayed discontinuously near
waypoints as route calculation is done at each waypoint.This condition is not abnormal.
The suggested route the vehicle has traveled is erased. Suggested routes are stored in memory by the blocks; if
the vehicle travels past waypoint block 1, the previous data
will be erased.This condition is not abnormal.
A route with many detours is suggested. If there are restrictions (such as one-way traffic) on roads
close to the starting point or destination, the system may
suggest a detoured route.Try slightly moving the starting point or destination.
The landmark description does not correspond to the ac-
tual one.This may be caused by insufficient or incorrect data on the
DVD-ROM.Exchange the Map DVD-ROM. The new DVD-ROM will be
updated.
The suggested route does not exactly connect to the start-
ing point, waypoints, or destination.There is no data for route calculation closer to these points. Set these points on the main road displayed in thick
orange. Please note that in some cases even main roads
lack the data for route calculation.
