Qashqai Model: Still looking for one....

Post by Steve101 »

I have just bought a new J12. I have set up speed cameras in the map, so you see the icon. Is there a way of getting an audible announcement when you are approaching a speed camera. I have looked and searched, but I am unable to get any announcements set up.

Many thanks

Yes you can. Somewhere in the settings can't quite remember where but you definitely can.

YMMV, and may be different depending on country/region ...
My experience is this ...
TomTom Maps, UI, HUD display all fine.
However ... speed limits, trajectory control indication, audible warning ... insufficient and plain wrong at times.
In streets where 20 MPH is allowed it indicates 60 MPH.
Speed camera audible warnings ... a BEEP not a voice like in (Android Auto) Waze.
If you don't mind to pay a few fines each year (or you always drive like 20 MPH) then by all means ... TomTom sure won't bother annoying you too much.
If you do like speeding ... TomTom is a great tool, no doubt about it. But I don't think the cops will agree.
Especially -Android/Carplay- Waze OTOH seems to me far better at warning you that those nice cops and cameras 'love' your speedy Qashqai a bit too much.

Many thanks for taking the bother to find this thread. It is much appreciated you took the time to do that. I’ll check my settings tomorrow.

Hiya - I have got the same issue.

Managed to set up the safety camera warning by switching it to on but it doesn’t beep like it did on the older Qashqai. Just rang the dealership and they have told me that the manufacturers are not allowed to have a verbal beep on the system anymore it should simply be a message on the screen…..

Not sure if that is correct

I have the QQ J12 2022. I get a low tone beep on approach to speed camera - about 100+ yds in advance. I wouldn't call it a warning as so easy to miss it - it's so low

Your dealer is talking rubbish.

You need to activate it in the settings. It isn't a very loud beep but is does beep nonetheless.
