Nissan Primera P12 Sat Nav Radio / CD controls

Hi, I'm in New Zealand and have just bought a Japanese import Primera 2 ltr Wagon. Very nice it is as well. However, the radio / CD is labelled in Japanese. I see from the forum its not likely that I will be able to convert this to read in English, but does anyone have a translation of the menu items from Japanese into English? 

Welcome to NPOC,

OK, not too sure how much info you want and what you already know, so if we just concentrate on your radio/CD controls for now and anything else just ask again.

 

The audio system is accessed from the control panel you have photographed or from the steering column. The button on the control panel is the big round one on the left hand side.

 

Adjust the volume simply by turning in either direction.

 

To access the radio/CD press the button, this will access the radio or CD depending upon which was being listened to last time. To switch from one to the other you have to press the source (SRC) button which I believe is marked disc on your photo (also the bottom left hand side inner button on the steering wheel).

 

Once the big round button has been pressed this activates the the panel buttons number 1-6. These are multi-function buttons depending on which button has been pressed, e.g. sat nav, radio, CD etc. In radio mode these represent your radio station presets. To find a station use the joystick push in any direction. Up/down moves frequency in increments, left/right finds nearest station if held for a couple of seconds. Once you have found a station press on of the button 1 to 6 and hold for 5 secs and this will store the station. Looking at you photograph your two toggle buttons marked FM1-2 and AM are your wave band selection, so 6 station for each of these. Also a different set can be saved if the other nats key is used in the ignition.

 

I don’t know in you region if you have traffic announcements (TA) or RDS radio data system operation. Looking at your button it does not look if traffic announcements are enabled.

 

As far as audio menus are concerned, press the settings button it is immediately below button number 4. This brings up a menu on the screen. Depending on your model you should have 5 (type A) or six menus (Type B) depending on whether you have Sat NAV fitted.

 

The menu order from top to bottom will read Audio, Display, Instrument Brightness, Language and clock for type A and Audio, Display, Instrument Brightness, Language, navigation and guidance volume for type B.

 

Select audio by pressing the joystick menu and you get from top to bottom Bass, Treble, Balance, fader, loudness, AF, Reg, TA volume, On Volume Speed dependant volume and switch beep, all altered by moving the joystick in the appropriate direction.

 

I will leave it there for now, let me know how you get on and what ever else you want to know.

Well done guys - Awesome help
