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 gas
stations, 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.
XM 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 6.

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 2.
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 2.
BirdviewTM
Two map types, the 2D (Plan View) map and
BirdviewTM(3D) map, are available in theNISSAN Navigation System. Birdview
TMmap
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 2.
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 2.

display, these are called “3D building graphics”.
The method to look at the map is the same for
the 2D and Birdview
TMmaps.
