– 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.
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.
This device complies with Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the fol-
lowing two conditions: (1) this device maynot 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
in conjunction with any other antenna or transmit-
ter.
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 turned to the ON
position, NISSAN Voice Recognition is initialized,
which takes a few seconds. If the
button is
pressed before the initialization completes, the
system will announce “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. 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 is played to
indicate 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.
cIn most cases you can interrupt the voice
feedback to speak the next command by
pressing the
button on the steering
wheel.
cTo speed the operation you can say multiple
commands. For example, press the
button then say “Phonebook, New entry”rather than “Phonebook.” Wait for the voice
feedback prompt then say “New entry”.
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.
