Sylphy navigation setup method is: 1. Turn on the navigation switch button, then click the menu bar button indicated by the finger below; 2. Open the second navigation item, and the system will enter the navigation interface; 3. Determine the location based on satellite positioning and search for the desired destination. Taking the 2021 Sylphy as an example, it belongs to the compact car category with body dimensions of: length 4631mm, width 1760mm, height 1503mm, and a wheelbase of 2700mm. The 2021 Sylphy features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 122PS, maximum power of 90kW, maximum torque of 155Nm, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.

I just picked up my Nissan Sylphy last week and found the navigation system quite straightforward to use. After starting the vehicle, locate and tap the navigation icon on the central control screen. First-time users need to agree to the terms. You can set your destination by handwriting directly or using voice commands like 'Navigate to XX Shopping Mall.' It's advisable to save your home and office addresses in favorites beforehand, so you can select them directly for daily commutes. If you suddenly want to change your route while driving, just press the 'Recalculate' button on the left side of the screen, and it will immediately provide you with a new route. When driving on highways, remember to set the route preference to 'Avoid Tolls' to save some money. Lastly, don’t forget to connect to your phone’s hotspot to update the maps; otherwise, newly constructed roads won’t be displayed.

I mainly use voice control for the Sylphy's navigation, which is especially convenient while driving. First, press the microphone button on the steering wheel and simply say 'Open navigation' to start the system. When stating the destination, be as detailed as possible, such as 'Navigate to B2 level underground parking of Wanda Plaza in Chaoyang District,' for higher accuracy. A handy tip is to set frequently visited places like supermarkets or schools as quick destinations—just say 'Go home,' and it automatically plans the route. If you encounter traffic congestion, long-press the hang-up button on the right side of the steering wheel, and the navigation will immediately suggest three alternative routes. It's best to connect to your phone's hotspot once a month to update the map data, ensuring you can avoid newly opened subway constructions or detours.

The key to setting up the Nissan Sylphy's navigation is making good use of the favorites feature. First, go to the system settings in the main menu and select 'Navigation Settings' to enable real-time traffic. When saving frequently used addresses, don't be lazy—it's best to fill in the complete house number. I usually set my parents' home and my child's school as quick address groups, which makes pickups and drop-offs much more convenient. For route planning, I recommend choosing 'Time Priority' as it's more practical than the system's default fuel-saving mode. Since highway entrances often get congested, pulling up the traffic congestion view in advance can help you avoid those long 5-kilometer queues.
