MAP DVD-ROM
ROUTE CALCULATION AND VISUAL GUIDANCE
The location of vehicle icon is mis-
aligned from the actual position.When using tire chains or replacing the tires, speed
calculations based on the speed sensor may be
incorrect.Drive the vehicle for a while [at approxi-
mately 30km/h (19 MPH) for about 30
minutes] to automatically correct the vehi-
cle icon position.
If this does not correct the vehicle icon
position, contact an INFINITI dealer.
The map data has mistake or is incomplete (the
vehicle icon position is always misaligned in the
same area).Updated road information will be included
in the next version of the map DVD-ROM. Symptom Possible cause Possible solution
Symptom Possible cause Possible solution
The message “Error” appears. Map DVD-ROM is dirty or partially damaged.Check the DVD-ROM and wipe it clean
with a soft cloth.
If there is any damage, replace the DVD-
ROM.
Symptom Possible cause Possible solution
In the auto reroute calculation,
waypoints are not included.Waypoints already passed are not included in the
auto reroute calculation.In case of going to that waypoints again,
edit the route.
Route information is not displayed.Route calculation has not yet been performed.Set the destination and perform route cal-
culation.
The vehicle is not driven on the suggested route. Drive on the suggested route.
Route guidance is set to off. Turn on route guidance.
Route information is not provided for narrow streets
(roads displayed in gray).This is not a malfunction.
The auto reroute calculation (or
detour calculation) suggests the
same route as the one previously
suggested. Route calculation took priority conditions into con-
sideration, but the same route was calculated. This is not a malfunction.
A waypoint cannot be added.Five waypoints are already set on the route, includ-
ing ones that already passed.A maximum of 5 waypoints can be set on
the route. In case of going to 6 or more
waypoints, perform route calculations mul-
tiple times as necessary.
The suggested route is not dis-
played.Roads near the destination cannot be calculated.Reset the destination to a main or ordinary
road, and recalculate the route.
The starting point and destination are too close. Set a more distant destination.
The starting point and destination are too far away.Divide the way by selecting one or two
intermediate destinations, and perform
route calculations multiple times.
There are time restricted roads (by day of week, by
time) near the current vehicle location or destina-
tion.Set “Use Time Restricted Roads” to off.
A part of the route is not displayed.The suggested route includes narrow streets (roads
displayed in gray).This is not a malfunction.
The part of the route already
passed is deleted.A route is managed by sections between way-
points. If you passed the first waypoint, the section
between the starting point and the waypoint is
deleted. (It may not be deleted depending on the
area.)This is not a malfunction.

REAR VIEW MONITOR
An indirect route is suggested.If there are restrictions (such as one way streets)
on roads close to the starting point or destination,
the system may suggest an indirect route.Adjust the location of the starting point or
destination.
The system may suggest an indirect route because
route calculation does not take into consideration
some areas such as narrow streets (gray roads).Reset the destination to a main or ordinary
road, and recalculate the route.
The landmark information does not
correspond to the actual informa-
tion.This may caused by insufficient or incorrect data on
the DVD-ROM.This is not a malfunction.
The suggested route does not
exactly connect to the starting
point, waypoints, or destination.There is no data for route calculation closer to
these locations.Set the starting point, waypoints and desti-
nation on main road, and perform route cal-
culation. Symptom Possible cause Possible solution
Symptom Possible cause Possible solution
The voice guidance is not avail-
able.Voice guidance is only available at certain intersec-
tions. In some cases, voice guidance is not avail-
able even when the vehicle should make a turn.This is not a malfunction.

VEHICLE MARK SHOWS A POSITION WHICH IS COMPLETELY WRONG
In the following cases, the vehicle mark may appear on completely different position in the map depending on
the GPS satellite signal receiving conditions. In this case, perform location correction and direction correction.
When location correction has not been done
–If the receiving conditions of the GPS satellite signal is poor, if the vehicle mark becomes out of place, it
may move to a completely different location and not come back if location correction is not done. The
position will be corrected if the GPS signal can be received.
When the vehicle has traveled by ferry, or when the vehicle has been being towed
–Because calculation of the current location cannot be done when traveling with the ignition off, for exam-
ple when traveling by ferry or when being towed, the location before travel is displayed. If the precise loca-
tion can be detected with GPS, the location will be corrected.
VEHICLE MARK JUMPS
In the following cases, the vehicle mark may appear to jump as a result of automatic correction of the current
location.
When map matching has been done
–If the current location and the vehicle mark are different when map matching is done, the vehicle mark
may seem to jump. At this time, the location may be “corrected” to the wrong road or to a location which is
not on a road.
When GPS location correction has been done
–If the current location and the vehicle mark are different when the location is corrected using GPS mea-
surements, the vehicle mark may seem to jump. At this time, the location may be “corrected” to a location
which is not on a road.
Precautions
for drivingJust after the engine is started If the vehicle is driven off just after the
engine is started when the gyroscope
(angular speed sensor) correction is not
completed, the vehicle can lose its direc-
tion and may have deviated from the cor-
rect location.Wait for a short while before
driving after starting the engine.
Continuous driving without stopping When driving long distances without stop-
ping, direction errors may accumulate, and
the vehicle mark may deviate from the cor-
rect road.Stop and adjust the orientation.
Abusive driving Spinning the wheels or engaging in other
kinds of abusive driving may result in the
system being unable perform correct
detection, and may cause the vehicle mark
to deviate from the correct road.If after traveling about 10 km (6
miles) the correct location has
not been restored, perform
location correction and, if nec-
essary, direction correction.
How to
correct
locationPosition correction accuracy
If the accuracy of location settings is poor,
accuracy may be reduced when the correct
road cannot be found, particularly in places
where there are many roads.Enter in the road displayed on
the screen with an accuracy of
approx. 1 mm (0.04 in).
Caution: Whenever possible,
use detailed map for the cor-
rection.
Direction when location is corrected
If the accuracy of location settings during
correction is poor, accuracy may be
reduced afterwards.Perform direction correction. Cause (condition) Driving condition Remarks (correction, etc.)

PRECAUTIONS
Revision: 2006 January2006 M35/M45
PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
NIS001WA
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. This system includes seat belt switch inputs and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS
system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front
air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WAR NING :
To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death
in the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to per-
sonal injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air
Bag Module, see the SRS section.
Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or
harness connectors.
Precautions for Procedures without Cowl Top CoverNIS001WB
When performing the procedure after removing cowl top cover, cover
the lower end of windshield with urethane, etc.

CAN Communication System DescriptionNIS001X9
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Many elec-
tronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2
communication lines (CAN H line, CAN L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.
