VEHICLE ICON
SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
Names of roads and locations differ between
Plan View and Birdview
TM. This is because the quantity of the displayed information is
reduced so that the screen does not become too crowded. There is
also a chance that names of the roads or locations may be
displayed multiple times, and the names appearing on the screen
may be different because of a processing procedure. This is not a malfunction.
The vehicle icon is not displayed in the correct
position. The vehicle was transported after the ignition switch was pushed
off, for example, by a ferry or car transporter. Drive the vehicle for a while on a road
where GPS signals can be received.
The position and direction of the vehicle icon may be incorrect
depending on the driving environments and the levels of
positioning accuracy of the navigation system. This is not a malfunction. Drive the vehicle
for a while to automatically correct the
position and direction of the vehicle icon.
“Current vehicle location”
(page 10-4)
When the vehicle is traveling on a new road,
the vehicle icon is located on another road
nearby. Because the new road is not stored in the map data, the system
automatically places the vehicle icon on the nearest road available.
Updated road information will be included
in the next version of the map data.
The screen does not switch to the night screen
even after turning on the headlights. The daytime screen was set the last time the headlights were
turned on. Set the screen to the night screen mode
using
the headlights.
“Display settings” (page 8-3)
The map does not scroll even when the
vehicle is moving. The current location map screen is not displayed. Push
SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
The GPS indicator on the screen remains gray. GPS signals cannot be received under certain conditions, such as in a parking garage, on a road with many tall buildings, etc. Drive on an open, straight road for a while.
GPS signals cannot be received because objects are placed on the
instrument panel. Remove the objects from the instrument
panel.
A sufficient number of GPS satellites is not available. Wait for the satellites to move to locations
available for the navigation system.
The location of the vehicle icon is misaligned
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 about 30 minutes at
approximately 19 MPH (30 km/h) to auto-
matically correct the vehicle icon position.
If this does not correct the vehicle icon
position, contact an INFINITI retailer.
The map data has a 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 data.

TRAFFIC INFORMATION
SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
The traffic information is not
displayed. The traffic information is not set to on.
Set the traffic information to on.
The vehicle is in an area where traffic information is not
available. Scroll to an area where traffic information is available.
The subscription to NavTraffic is incomplete, or the
subscription to NavTraffic has expired. Check the subscription status of NavTraffic.
The map scale is set at a level where the display of icons is
impossible. Check that the map scale is set at a level in which the display of icons
is possible.
“Traffic information display and scale levels”
(page 7-19)
With the automatic detour
route search ON, no detour
route is set to avoid con-
gested areas. There is no faster route compared to the current route,
based on the road network and traffic information.
The automatic detour search is not intended for avoiding traffic jams.
It searches for the fastest route taking into consideration such things
as traffic jams. Follow the current route. Also see
“Notes on NavTraffic
information” for further information.
“Notes on NavTraffic information” (page 10-14)
The route does not avoid a
road section with traffic in-
formation stating that it is
closed due to road construc-
tion. The navigation system is designed not to avoid this event
because the actual period of closure may differ from the
declared roadwork period.
Observe the actual road conditions and follow the instructions on the
road for detour when necessary. If the road actually is closed, use the
detour function and set the detour distance to avoid the road section
that is closed.
