— Your vehicle is in an area where it is
difficult to receive radio waves; such as in
a tunnel, in an underground parking
garage, behind a tall building or in a
mountainous area.
— Your cellular phone is locked in order not
to be dialed.
.When the radio wave condition is not ideal
or ambient sound is too loud, it may be

INITIALIZATION
When the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position, NISSAN Voice Recognition is initia-
lized, which takes a few seconds. If the
button 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 TIPS
To 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 a
command. 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 COMMANDS
To operate NISSAN Voice Recognition, push
and release thebutton 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.

Up to 5 phones can be paired. If you try to pair a
sixth phone, the system announces that you
must first delete one phone or replace an
existing phone.
If you try to pair a phone that has already been
paired to your vehicle’s system, the system
announces the name the phone is already using.
The pairing procedure will then be canceled.
When prompted by the system, choose from the
following commands:
.“New phone” — see “PAIRING PROCE-
DURE” earlier in this section.
.“Replace phone” — The system announces
the names of the phones already paired and
asks which you would like to replace.
Once you say the name of the phone you
wish to replace, the paring procedure will
begin. (See “PAIRING PROCEDURE” ear-
lier in this section.)
.“List phone” — See the description below.
“List Phones”
Use the List Phone command to hear the names
of the phones currently paired. If no phones are
paired, the system announces, “No paired
phones to list.” The system then ends the VR
session.“Select Phone”
Use the Select Phone command to select a
phone of lesser priority when two or more
phones paired with Bluetooth
®Hands-Free
Phone System are in the vehicle at the same
time.
The system asks you to name the phone and
confirm the selection.
Once the selection is confirmed, the selected
phone remains active until the ignition switch is
turned OFF or you select a new phone.
“Change Priority”
Use the Change Priority command to change
the priority level of the active phone.
The priority level determines which phone is
active when more than one paired Bluetooth
®
phone is in the vehicle.
The system states the priority level of the active
phone and asks for a new priority level (1, 2, 3,
4, 5) .
If the new priority level is already being used for
another phone, the two phones will swap priority
levels.For example, if the current priority levels are:
Priority Level 1 = Phone A
Priority Level 2 = Phone B
Priority Level 3 = Phone C
and you change the priority level of Phone C to
Level 1, then:
Priority Level 1 = Phone C
Priority Level 2 = Phone B
Priority Level 3 = Phone A
“Delete Phone”
Use the Delete Phone command to delete a
specific phone or all phones from the Bluetooth
®
Hands-Free Phone System.
The system announces the names of the phones
already paired with the system and their priority
level. The system then gives you the option to
delete a specific phone, all phones or listen to
the list again.
Once you choose to delete a phone or all
phones, the system asks you to confirm this
action.
NOTE:
When you delete a phone, the associated
phone book for that phone will also be
deleted.
