DETAILED MAP COVERAGE AREAS (MCA) FOR THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM POSITIONING ADJUSTMENT When the system judges that the vehicle position information is not accurate based on vehicle speed and gyro sensor data calculations, the system will adjust the vehicle position information using GPS signals. INFO: The antenna for GPS is located behind the instrument panel inside the vehicle. Do not place any objects, especially mobile phones or transceivers, on the instrument panel. Because the strength of the GPS signals are approximately one billionth of that of TV waves; phones and transceivers will decrease the strength or may totally disrupt the signals. This system is designed to help you reach your destination, and also performs other functions as outlined in this manual. However, you, the driver, must use the system safely and properly. Information concerning road conditions, traffic signs and the availability of services may not always be up-to-date. The system is not a substitute for safe, proper, and legal driving. Map data covers select metropolitan areas in the United States. Map data is available on map DVD-ROM. For information about map DVD-ROMs, contact a NISSAN dealer or call the NISSAN Navigation System help desk at 1-800-661-9995. Map data includes 2 types of areas: "Detailed coverage areas" providing all detailed road data and other areas showing "Main roads only". NOTE: Detailed map data is not available in many areas and is generally limited to select major metropolitan areas. For information on which metropolitan areas are in detailed coverage areas, please refer to the NISSAN Navigation System Software Booklet (included). When you purchase an updated map DVD-ROM, a new software booklet will be provided. RECEIVING SIGNALS FROM GPS SATELLITES Sometimes, satellite reception is weak. The following are places where signals tend to be weak: ● Inside tunnels and parking lots in buildings ● Areas with numerous tall buildings ● Under multi-layered highways ● In a dense forest ● Near military bases and certain government facilities Vehicles in these areas may not receive GPS signals (Indicator color: gray). DISPLAY OF GPS INFORMATION This system displays GPS information. Please refer to "GPS information display" on page 11-17. How does the Nissan navigation system work? 2-3
