2017 NISSAN PATHFINDER audio

NissanConnectSMuses an operating system like
those found on many computers, tablets and cell
phones. Like these devices, processing speed
may vary, and system response delays or resets
may occur intermittently. This does not indicate a
malfunction, and further information on system
operation can be found below.
System Start-Up
Due to the large number of features and capabili-
ties that the NissanConnect
SMneeds to load on
start-up, it may take up to a minute for all func-
tions (such as Apps) to be available. The system
will display “Now Loading All Apps...” during this
time.
System Response Delay
NissanConnect
SMuses an operating system like
those found on many computers, tablets and cell
phones. Like these devices, sometimes pro-
grams do not respond immediately and this may
temporarily delay system use.
In most situations, simply waiting a few moments
longer should be sufficient for the pending opera-
tions to complete.
If the system temporarily does not respond to
commands, the system can be easily reset. Sim-
ply push down the VOL/ON-OFF knob for at
least 5 seconds. The system will turn off and
restart. After restart, all functions should be available.
If a navigation route was set, the route should
resume automatically.
System Reset
As noted above, intermittent system resets may
occur during normal operation. You may also
wish to reset the system if you find that a particu-
lar feature is not loading or responding. Often, a
quick system reset will resolve any issue you may
be experiencing. After restart, all functions will be
available as described above.
System Updates
Like many digital devices, the NissanConnect
SM
is designed to allow for software updates as
enhancements are developed and additional fea-
tures added. If you have questions about system
performance, it is recommended that you contact
a NISSAN dealer to ensure that your vehicle has
had the latest available software installed.
Operating Tips
NissanConnect
SMprovides several methods of
operation to suit your preferences. The following
are suggested operating tips. ●
Operating the multi-function controller
steering wheel controls, or other controls
too quickly can cause a lag between the
control and the display. Operate the controls
carefully and allow the system to respond to
your request.
● NISSAN recommends using Voice Recog-
nition whenever possible to select options
while driving. Some touch-screen function-
ality is intentionally unavailable during driv-
ing. Please view the available voice com-
mands by pushing the
(TALK) switch
and then selecting a category on the display.
● When looking for a street address or Points
of Interest (POI) , remember that you can use
Connected Search and Assisted Search
features within NissanConnect
SMServices
to expand your search methods and results.
The Voice Recognition system recognizes a
defined set of commands. These commands
can be viewed in the display by pushing
the
(TALK) switch and then selecting
a category from the displayed list. The com-
mands can also be found in the Voice Rec-
ognition section under command list. For
additional information, refer to “Command
list” in this section.
ADDITIONAL SYSTEM INFORMATION
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-159

●In some situations, the system may not be
able to recognize your command even if you
say the exact command. This can be due to
noise conditions or an accent.
● In some unique cases, the system may ex-
pect a word to be spoken as it is spelled as
opposed to the way it is normally pro-
nounced.
ADDITIONAL HELP
For additional technical information, it is recom-
mended that you contact us online at

MEMO
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-161

●The RCTA system (if so equipped) is
integrated into the BSW system. There
is not a separate selection in the ve-
hicle information display for the RCTA
system. When the BSW is disabled, the
RCTA system is also disabled.
● When the BSW system is turned on, the
BSW/RCTA indicator (white) in the ve-
hicle information display illuminates.
BSW SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the BSW system. Failure to operate the
vehicle in accordance with these system
limitations could result in serious injury or
death.
●The BSW system cannot detect all ve-
hicles under all conditions.
● The radar sensors may not be able to
detect and activate BSW when certain
objects are present such as:
– Pedestrian, bicycles, animals.
– Vehicles such as motorcycles, low height vehicles, or high ground clear-
ance vehicles. – Oncoming vehicles.
– Vehicles remaining in the detection
zone when you accelerate from a
stop.
– A vehicle merging into an adjacent lane at a speed approximately the
same as your vehicle.
– A vehicle approaching rapidly from behind.
– A vehicle which your vehicle over- takes rapidly.
– A vehicle that passes through the de- tection zone quickly.
– When overtaking several vehicles in a row, the vehicles after the first ve-
hicle may not be detected if they are
traveling close together.
● The radar sensors’ detection zone is
designed based on a standard lane
width. When driving in a wider lane, the
radar sensors may not detect vehicles in
an adjacent lane. When driving in a nar-
row lane, the radar sensors may detect
vehicles driving two lanes away. ●
The radar sensors are designed to ig-
nore most stationary objects, however
objects such as guardrails, walls, foli-
age and parked vehicles may occasion-
ally be detected. This is a normal opera-
tion condition.
● The following conditions may reduce
the ability of the radar to detect other
vehicles:
– Severe weather
– Road spray
– Ice/frost/snow build-up on the vehicle
– Dirt build-up on the vehicle
● Do not attach stickers (including trans-
parent material) , install accessories or
apply additional paint near the radar
sensors. These conditions may reduce
the ability of the radar to detect other
vehicles.
● Excessive noise (for example, audio
system volume, open vehicle window)
will interfere with the chime sound, and
it may not be heard.

WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the RCTA system. Failure to operate the
vehicle in accordance with these system
limitations could result in serious injury or
death.
●Always check surroundings and turn to
check what is behind you before back-
ing up. The radar sensors detect ap-
proaching (moving) vehicles. The radar
sensors cannot detect every object such
as:
– Pedestrians, bicycles, motorcycles, animals or child-operated toy
vehicles
– A vehicle that is passing at speeds greater than approximately 19 mph
(30 km/h)
– A vehicle that is passing at speeds lower than approximately 5 mph
(8 km/h)
● The radar sensors may not detect ap-
proaching vehicles in certain situations:
– Illustration a: When a vehicle parked next to you obstructs the beam of the
radar sensor. – Illustration b: When the vehicle is
parked in an angled parking space.
– Illustration c: When the vehicle is parked on inclined ground.
– Illustration d: When an approaching vehicle turns into your vehicle’s park-
ing lot aisle.
– Illustration e: When the angle formed by your vehicle and approaching ve-
hicle is small
● The following conditions may reduce
the ability of the radar to detect other
vehicles:
– Severe weather
– Road spray
– Ice/frost/snow build-up on the vehicle
– Dirt build- up on the vehicle
● Do not attach stickers (including trans-
parent material) , install accessories or
apply additional paint near the radar
sensors. These conditions may reduce
the ability of the radar to detect other
vehicles ●
Excessive noise (e.g. audio system vol-
ume, open vehicle window) will inter-
fere with the chime sound, and it may
not be heard.
