Hi all.

Has anyone found out how to increase the volume of the speed camera alert?

I know there was a volume setting for it in my previous J11B, but can't find one in my new one. It seems very quiet and I only
just about hear it.

Thanks

Speed camera alerts? .....since when has there been these, I thought Nissan/ TomTom had to remove them as they were classed as illegal.

For the fixed cameras. The car beeps twice in quick succession when your a certain distance from them.
Both my previous two Qashqai's and Juke all had this.

Hello @Nissanfan and welcome to the forum. I don't think there are many on here who have the brand new J12 Qashqai - the production of mine has already been put back by a month. Hopefully someone will be able to help you sooner or later? ;)

Is this feature built into the TomTom sat nav that comes as standard? I've never heard of this feature before.

Hello @malvern_man, Nissan have re-introduced speed camera alerts on the brand new J12 Qashqai manufactured from June 2021. It was also available on Qashqais built between 2014-2018/19? I believe if you have Apple CarPlay/Android Auto on your Qashqai (J11B: 2019-2021), then you won't have speed camera alerts.

In the past (Connect Head Units) for J11a/b could use POI's (Point of Interest) which are triggered from the map (GPS). SpeedCams are POI's. During that time many folk used Waze and its likely the same with the J12 and other newer cars.

I'm not aware of current OEM headunit functionality in this context. I'd use my Garmin GPS as this Nissan GPS stuff is rather lame.

Its not illegal to use SpeedCam POIs....except in France mainly. Touchy folk.... :shock:
