USING SYSTEMThe NISSAN Voice Recognition system allows
hands-free operation of the Bluetooth
®Hands-
Free Phone System.
If the vehicle is in motion, some commands may
not be available so full attention may be given to
vehicle operation.
InitializationWhen the ignition switch is turned to the ON
position, NISSAN Voice Recognition is initia-
lized, which takes a few seconds. If thebutton is pushed before the initialization com-
pletes, the system will announce “Hands-free
phone system not ready” and will not react to
voice commands.Operating tipsTo get the best performance out of the NISSAN
Voice Recognition system, observe the follow-
ing:
.Keep 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.
.Wait until the tone sounds before speaking acommand. Otherwise, the command will not
be received properly.
.Start speaking a command within 5 seconds
after the tone sounds.
.Speak in a natural voice without pausing
between words.
Giving voice commandsTo operate NISSAN Voice Recognition, push
and release the
button located on the
steering wheel. After the tone sounds, speak a
command.
Thecommandgivenispickedupbythe
microphone, and voice feedback is given when
the command is accepted.
.If you need to hear the available commands
for the current menu again, say “Help” and
the system will repeat them.
.If a command is not recognized, the system
announces, “Command not recognized.
Please try again.” Repeat the command in
a clear voice.
.If you want to go back to the previous
command, you can say “Go back” or
“Correction” anytime the system is waiting
for a response.
.You can cancel a command when the
system is waiting for a response by saying,
Heater, air conditioner, audio and phone systems

Black plate (172,1)
Model "S35-D" EDITED: 2007/ 12/ 19
“Cancel” or “Quit.” The system announces
“Cancel” and ends the voice recognition
(VR) session. You can also push thebutton on the steering wheel at any time.
Whenever the VR session is canceled, a
double beep sounds to indicate you have
exited the system.
.If you want to adjust the volume of the voice
feedback, push 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:
.Either “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”
.Words can be used for the first 4 digits
places only.
Example: 1-800-662-6200
—“One eight hundred six six two six two ohoh”,
—NOT “One eight hundred six six two sixty
two hundred, and
—NOT “One eight oh oh six six two sixty two
hundred.
.Numbers can be spoken in small groups.
The system will prompt you to continuing
entering 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”
.You can say “Star” for * and “Pound” for # at
anytime in any position of the phone number.
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.

the R (Reverse) position.The brake pedal
must be depressed and the selector lever
button pushed in to move the selector
lever from P (Park) , N (Neutral) or any
driving position to R (Reverse) .
N (Neutral):
Neither forward nor reverse gear is engaged.
The engine can be started in this position. You
may shift to N (Neutral) and restart a stalled
engine while the vehicle is moving.
D (Drive):
Use this position for all normal forward driving.
L (Low) (if so equipped):
Use this position for maximum engine braking on
steep downhill gradients/climbing steep slopes
and whenever approaching sharp bends. Do not
use the L position in any other circumstances.
SSD0568A
Paddle shifter
Manual shift mode (if so equipped)When the selector lever is shifted from the D
position to the manual shift gate, the transmis-
sion enters the manual shift mode. Shift ranges
can be selected manually by operating the
selector lever or the paddle shifter on the
steering wheel.
In the manual shift mode, the shift range is
displayed on the position indicator in the meter.
Shift ranges up or down one by one as follows:M1?
/M2?
/M3?
/M4?
/M5?
/M6.When shifting up, move the selector lever tothe + (up) side or pull the right-side paddle
shifter (+)
*A
. The transmission shifts to a
higher range.
.When shifting down, move the selector lever
to the(down) side or pull the left-side
paddle shifter ()
*B. The transmission
shifts to a lower range.
.Moving the selector lever to the same side
twice or pulling the same paddle shifter
twice will shift the ranges in succession.
However, if this motion is rapidly done, the
second shifting may not be completed
properly.
.When canceling the manual shift mode,
return the selector lever to the D (Drive)
position. The transmission returns to the
normal driving mode.
.When you pull the paddle shifter while in the
D (Drive) position, the transmission will shift
to the upper or lower range temporarily. The
transmission will automatically return to the
D (Drive) position after a short period of
time. If you want to return to the D (Drive)
position manually, pull and hold the paddle
shifter for about 1.5 seconds.
M6 (6th):
Use this position for all normal forward driving at
highway speeds.

Accelerator downshift
— In D position —For passing or hill climbing, fully depress the
accelerator pedal to the floor. This shifts the
transmission down into a lower gear, depending
on the vehicle speed.High fluid temperature protection modeThis transmission has a high fluid temperature
protection mode. If the fluid temperature be-
comes too high (for example, when climbing
steep grades in high temperature with heavy
loads, such as when towing a trailer) , engine
power and, under some conditions, vehicle
speed will be decreased automatically to reduce
the chance of transmission damage. Vehicle
speed can be controlled with the accelerator
pedal, but the engine and vehicle speed may be
limited.Fail-safeIf the vehicle is driven under extreme
conditions, such as excessive wheel spin-
ning and subsequent hard braking, the
fail-safe system may be activated. The MIL
may illuminate to indicate the fail-safe
mode is activated. (See “Malfunction In-
dicator Light (MIL)” in the “2. Instruments
and controls” section.) This will occur even
if all electrical circuits are functioning
properly. In this case, turn the ignition
switch to the OFF position and wait for 10seconds. Then turn the switch back to the
ON position. The vehicle should return to
its normal operating condition. If it does
not return to its normal operating condi-
tion, have a NISSAN dealer check the
transmission and repair if necessary.
WARNING
When the high fluid temperature pro-
tection mode or fail-safe operation
occurs, vehicle speed may be gradually
reduced. The reduced speed may be
lower than other traffic, which could
increase the chance of a collision. Be
especially careful when driving. If ne-
cessary, pull to the side of the road at a
safe place and allow the transmission
to return to normal operation, or have it
repaired if necessary.

Shift lock releaseIf the battery charge is low or discharged, the
selector lever may not be moved from the P
(Park) position even with the brake pedal
depressed and the selector lever button pushed.
To move the selector lever, release the shift lock.
The selector lever can be moved to the N
(Neutral) position. However, the steering wheel
will be locked unless the ignition switch is turned
to the ON position. This allows the vehicle to be
moved if the battery is discharged.
To release the shift lock, perform the following
procedure:
