system is waiting for a response by saying,
“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 to
end the VR session. 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 oh
oh”,
—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 continue
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.
(Available only when using “Call Interna-
tional” command.)
Example: 1-555-1212 *123
—“One five five five one two one two star
one two three”.Say “plus” for “+” (available only when using
the “Call International” command) .
.Say “pause” for a 2 second pause (available
only when storing a phone book number) .
See “Making a call by entering a phone
number” later in this section and “Call” later
in this section for more information.
NOTE:
For best results, say phone numbers as
single digits.
The voice command “Help” is available at any
time. Please say the “Help” command to get
information about how to use the system.

SPEAKER ADAPTATION (SA) MODESpeaker Adaptation allows up to two out-of
dialect users to train the system to improve
recognition accuracy. By repeating a number of
commands, the users can create a voice modelof their own voice that is stored in the system.
The system is capable of storing a different
speaker adaptation model for memory A and
memory B.
If memory A is available, the system will use
memory A to store the model. If memory A is in
use and memory B is available, the system will
use memory B to store the model. If both of the
memory locations are in use, the system will ask
the user to select which memory location should
be overwritten.
Training procedureThe procedure for training a voice is as follows.
1. Position the vehicle in a reasonably quiet
outdoor location.
2. Sit in the driver’s seat with the engine
running, the parking brake applied, and the
transmission in P (Park) position.
3. Push and hold the
button for more than
5 seconds.
4. The system announces: “Press the PHONE
SEND (
) button for the hands-free
phone system to enter the speaker adapta-
tion mode or press the PHONE END (
)
button to select a different language”.
5. Push the
button.

language, see “Choosing a language” earlier
in this section.
6. Voice memory A or memory B is selected
automatically. If both memory locations are
already in use, the system will prompt you to
overwrite one. Follow the instructions pro-
vided by the system.
7. When preparation is complete and you are
ready to begin, push the
button.
8. The SA mode will be explained. Follow the
instructions provided by the system.
9. When training is finished, the system will tell
you an adequate number of phrases have
been recorded.
10. The system will ask you to say your name.
Follow the instructions to register your
name.
11. The system will announce that speaker
adaptation has been completed and the
system is ready.
The SA mode will stop if:
.The
button is pushed for more than 5
seconds in SA mode.
.The vehicle is driven during SA mode.
.The ignition switch is placed in the OFF or
LOCK position.
Training phrasesDuring the SA mode, the system instructs you to
say the following phrases. (The system will
prompt you for each phrase.)

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDEThe system should respond correctly to all voice commands without difficulty. If problems are encountered, try the following solutions.
Where the solutions are listed by number, try each solution in turn, starting with number 1, until the problem is resolved.Symptom Solution
System fails to interpret the command
correctly.1. Ensure that the command format is valid. (See “List of voice commands” earlier in this section.)
2. Ensure that the command is spoken after the tone.
3. Speak clearly without pausing between words and at a level appropriate to the ambient noise level in the vehicle.
4. Ensure that the ambient noise level is not excessive (for example, windows open or defroster on) .
NOTE: If it is too noisy to use the phone, it is likely that the voice commands will not be recognized.
5. If more than one command was said at a time, try saying the commands separately.
6. If the system consistently fails to recognize commands, the voice training procedure should be carried out to improve the
recognition response for the speaker. (See “SPEAKER ADAPTATION (SA) MODE” earlier in this section.)
The system consistently selects the
wrong entry from the phone book.1. Ensure that the phone book entry name requested matches what was originally stored. This can be confirmed by using the
“List Names” command. (See “Phone book” earlier in this section.)
2. Replace one of the names being confused with a new name.
