WARNING
cUse a phone after stopping your vehicle
in a safe location. If you have to use a
phone while driving, exercise extreme
caution at all times so full attention may
be given to vehicle operation.
cIf a conversation in a moving vehicle
requires you to take notes, pull off the
road to a safe location and stop your
vehicle before doing so.
CAUTION
To avoid draining the vehicle battery, use
a phone after starting the engine.
Your NISSAN is equipped with the BluetoothT
Hands-Free Phone System. If you are an owner
of a BluetoothTenabled cellular phone, you can
set up the wireless connection between your
cellular phone and the in-vehicle phone module.
With BluetoothTwireless technology, you canmake or receive a hands-free telephone call with
your cellular phone in the vehicle.
Once your cellular phone is paired to the in-
vehicle phone module, no other phone connect-
ing procedure is required. Your phone is auto-
matically connected with the in-vehicle phone

module when the ignition switch is turned to the
ON position with the paired cellular phone turned
on and carried in the vehicle.
You can register up to 5 different BluetoothT
cellular phones to the in-vehicle phone module.
However, you can talk on only one cellular phone
at a time.
NISSAN Voice Recognition system supports the
phone commands, so dialing a phone number
using your voice is possible. For more details, see
NISSAN Voice Recognition System later in this
section.
Before using the BluetoothTHands-Free Phone
System, refer to the following notes.
cSet up the wireless connection between a
cellular phone and the in-vehicle phone
module before using the hands-free phone
system.
cSome BluetoothTenabled cellular phones
may not be recognized by the in-vehicle
phone module. Please visit
www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth for a recom-
mended phone list.
cYou will not be able to use a hands-free
phone under the following conditions:
– Your vehicle is outside of the cellular ser-
vice area.– Your vehicle is in an area where it is
difficult to receive cellular signal; such as
in a tunnel, in an underground parking
garage, near a tall building or in a moun-
tainous area.
– Your cellular phone is locked to prevent it
from being dialed.
cWhen the radio wave condition is not ideal
or ambient sound is too loud, it may be
difficult to hear the other person’s voice dur-
ing a call.
cImmediately after the ignition switch is
pushed to the ON position or the DVD-ROM
for the navigation system is inserted into the
player, it may be impossible to receive a call
for a short period of time.
cDo not place the cellular phone in an area
surrounded by metal or far away from the
in-vehicle phone module to prevent tone
quality degradation and wireless connection
disruption.
cWhile a cellular phone is connected through
the BluetoothTwireless connection, the bat-
tery power of the cellular phone may dis-
charge quicker than usual. The BluetoothT
Hands-Free Phone System cannot charge
cellular phones.cIf the hands-free phone system seems to be
malfunctioning, please refer to “Trouble-
shooting guide” later in this section. You can
also visit www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth for
troubleshooting help.
cRefer to the cellular phone Owner’s Manual
regarding the telephone charges, cellular
phone antenna and body, etc.
cThe signal strength display on the monitor
will not coincide with the signal strength
display of some cellular phones.

Operating tips
To get the best performance out of NISSAN
Voice Recognition, observe the following:
cKeep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as
possible. Close the windows to eliminate the
surrounding noises (traffic noises, vibration
sounds, etc.) , which may prevent the system
from recognizing the voice commands cor-
rectly.
cWait until a tone sounds before speaking a
command. Otherwise, the command will not
be received properly.
cStart speaking a command within 3.5 sec-
onds after the tone sounds.
cSpeak in a natural voice without pausing
between words.
SYSTEM FEATURES
NISSAN Voice Recognition can activate the fol-
lowing systems:
cNavigation (if so equipped)
cBluetoothTHands-Free Phone
For additional information on the navigation sys-
tem, see the separate Navigation System Own-
er’s Manual.
How to say numbers
NISSAN Voice Recognition requires a certain
way to speak numbers in voice commands. Refer
to the following examples.
General rule: Either “zero” or “oh” can be used for
“0”.
Phone numbers:
Speak phone numbers according to the following
examples:
c1-800-662-6200
csay “Dial” or “Phone dial” the system will
respond with “Please say the first group of
numbers”, then say:
– “one eight oh oh six six two six two oh oh”,
– “one eight hundred six six two six two oh
oh”, or– “one eight zero zero six six two oh oh”.
Note 1: For the best voice recognition phone
dialing results, say phone numbers as single dig-
its.
Note 2: You cannot say 555-6000 as “five five
five six thousand”.
Personal vocabulary (voicetags)
NISSAN Voice Recognition provides the function
called “voicetags”, which can be associated with
the phone and the navigation system (if so
equipped) . Using your own voice, 70 voicetags
can be registered in the “Phonebook” (phone)
and 20 locations can be registered in the “Ad-
dress Book” (navigation system) .
For additional information, see “BluetoothT
Hands-Free Phone System” earlier in this section
and/or the separate Navigation System Owner’s
Manual (if so equipped) for the method of “voic-
etag” registration.
LIST OF VOICE COMMANDS
Depending on the commands, some different
phrases are available. Optional words are shown
in brackets [ ]. A few words, identified with a slash
/, indicate the alternate words that you can select
when speaking the command. Data items that
