as possible. Close the windows to eliminate
the surrounding noises (traffic noise, vibra-
tion sounds, etc.) , which may prevent the
system from correctly recognizing the voice
commands.

8. Troubleshooting guide
SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
No sounds are played though the CD play time is
displayed. The system plays back the first track of the mix mode
disc. (Mix mode is a format in which data except
music is recorded on the first track and music data is
recorded on one other than the first track in a
session.) Play back music data that are recorded on one other
than the first track.
Music cuts off or skips. The combination of writing software and hardware
might not match; or the writing speed, writing depth,
writing width, etc. might not match the specifications. Create a disc using different writing speed settings,
etc.
The system skips the selected track and moves to the
next track. A non-MP3/WMA file is given an extension of “.
MP3”, “.WMA”, “.mp3” or “.wma”.Prepare MP3/WMA files.
The system plays back a file that is prohibited due to
copyright protection. Prepare playable files.
The tracks do not play back in the desired order. The folder locations in the disc are changed by the writing software while the files are written in the disc.Check the settings of the writing software, and create
a new disc.
The CD cannot be ejected. The ignition switch is not placed in the ACC or ON
position. Place the ignition switch in the ACC or ON position.

VEHICLE ICON
SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
Names of roads and locations differ be-
tween 2D view and Birdview
TM. This is because the quantity of the displayed information is
reduced so that the screen does not become too cluttered.
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 location of the vehicle icon is misaligned
from the actual position. The vehicle was transported after the ignition switch was placed
in the OFF position, for example, by a ferry or car transporter. Drive the vehicle for a period of time 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
period of time to automatically correct the position
and direction of the vehicle icon.
“Current vehicle location” (page 6-60)
Driving with tire chains or tires that have been replaced may
result in an incorrect vehicle location display due to miscalcula-
tion by the speed sensor. Drive the vehicle for a period of time (at
approximately 19 MPH (30 km/h) for about 30
minutes) to automatically correct the vehicle icon
position.
If this does not correct the vehicle icon position, it
is recommended you contact a NISSAN dealer.
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.
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.
