When installing a CB, ham radio or car phone in
your NISSAN, be sure to observe the following
precautions, otherwise the new equipment may
adversely affect the engine control system and
other electronic parts.
WARNING
cA cellular telephone should not be used
while driving so full attention may be
given to vehicle operation. Some juris-
dictions prohibit the use of cellular tele-
phones while driving.
cIf you must make a call while your ve-
hicle is in motion, the hands free cellu-
lar phone operational mode (if so
equipped) is highly recommended. Ex-
ercise 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
cKeep the antenna as far away as pos-
sible from the electronic control
modules.
cKeep the antenna wire more than 8 in
(20 cm) away from the electronic con-
trol system harnesses. Do not route the
antenna wire next to any harness.
cAdjust the antenna standing-wave ratio
as recommended by the manufacturer.
cConnect the ground wire from the CB
radio chassis to the body.
cFor details, consult a NISSAN dealer.
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 phonemodule 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.
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.
When the radio wave condition is not ideal or
ambient sound is too loud, it may be difficult to
hear the other person’s voice during a call.
Do not place the cellular phone in an area sur-
rounded by metal or far away from the in-vehicle
phone module to prevent tone quality degrada-
tion and wireless connection disruption.
While a cellular phone is connected through the
BluetoothTwireless connection, the battery
power of the cellular phone may discharge
quicker than usual. The BluetoothTHands-Free
Phone System cannot charge cellular phones.
If the hands-free phone system seems to be
malfunctioning, please refer to “Troubleshooting
guide” later in this section. You can also visit
www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth for troubleshoot-
ing help.
Refer to the cellular phone Owner’s Manual re-
garding the telephone charges, cellular phone
antenna and body, etc.
This device complies with Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the fol-
lowing two conditions: (1) this device may
not cause harmful interference, and (2) this
device must accept any interference re-ceived, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation ex-
posure limits set forth for an uncontrolled envi-
ronment. This equipment should be installed and
operated with minimum distance of 8 inches (20
cm) between the radiator and your body. This
Transmitter must not be co-located or operating

USING THE SYSTEM
The NISSAN Voice Recognition system allows
hands-free operation of the BluetoothTPhone
System.
If the vehicle is in motion, some commands may
not be available so full attention may be given to
vehicle operation.
Initialization
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, NISSAN Voice Recognition is initialized,
which takes a few seconds. When completed,
the amber light on the overhead console illumi-
nates and the system is ready to accept voice
commands. If the
button is pressed before
the initialization completes, the system will an-nounce “Hands-free phone system not ready”
and will not react to voice commands.
Operating tips
To get the best performance out of the NISSAN
Voice Recognition system, observe the following:
cKeep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as
possible. Close the windows to eliminate
surrounding noises (traffic noises, vibration
sounds, etc.) , which may prevent the system
from recognizing voice commands correctly.
cWait until the tone sounds before speaking a
command. Otherwise, the command will not
be received properly.
cStart speaking a command within 5 seconds
after the tone sounds.
cSpeak in a natural voice without pausing
between words.
Giving voice commands
To operate NISSAN Voice Recognition, press
and release thebutton located on the
steering wheel. The light on the overhead con-
sole flashes to signal you have entered a voice
recognition (VR) session. After the tone sounds,
speak a command.

The command given is picked up by the micro-
phone, and voice feedback is given when the
command is accepted.
cIf you need to hear the available commands
for the current menu again, say “Help” and
the system will repeat them.
cIf a command is not recognized, the system
announces, “Command not recognized.
Please try again.” Repeat the command in a
clear voice.
cIf you want to go back to the previous com-
mand, you can say “Go back” or “Correc-
tion” any time the system is waiting for a
response.
cYou can cancel a command when the sys-
tem is waiting for a response by saying,
“Cancel” or “Quit.” The system announces
“Cancel” and ends the VR session. You can
also press the
button on the steering
wheel at any time. Whenever the VR session
is cancelled, a double beep sounds to indi-
cate you have exited the system.
cIf you want to adjust the volume of the voice
feedback, press the volume control switches
(+ or -) on the steering wheel while being
provided with feedback. You can also use
the radio volume control knob.How to say numbers
NISSAN Voice Recognition requires a certain
way to speak numbers in voice commands. Refer
to the following rules and examples.
cEither “zero” or “oh” can be used for “0”.
Example: 1-800-662-6200
– “One eight oh oh six six two six two oh
oh”, or
– “One eight zero zero six six two six two oh
oh”
cWords can be used for the first 4 digits
places only.
Example: 1-800-662-6200
– “One eight hundred six six two six two oh
oh”,
– NOT “One eight hundred six six two sixty
two hundred, and
– NOT “One eight oh oh six six two sixty two
hundred.
cNumbers can be spoken in small groups.
The system will prompt you to continue en-
tering digits, if desired.
Example: 1-800-662-6200
– “One eight oh oh”The system repeats the numbers and
prompts you to enter more.
– “six six two”
The system repeats the numbers and
prompts you to enter more.
– “six two oh oh”
cYou can say “Star” for * and “Pound” for # at
any time in any position of the phone num-
ber.
Example: 1-555-1212 *123
– “One five five five one two one two star
one two three”
NOTE:
For best results, say phone numbers as
single digits.
