USING THE SYSTEM
Initialization
When the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position, INFINITI Voice Recognition is initial-
ized, which takes a few seconds. When com-
pleted, the system is ready to accept voice
commands. If the TALK
switch is pushed
before the initialization completes, the display will show the message: “Phonetic data down-
loaded. Please wait.” or a beep sounds.
Before starting
To get the best recognition performance from
INFINITI Voice Recognition, observe the follow-
ing:
●
The interior of the vehicle should be as quiet
as possible. Close the windows to eliminate
the surrounding noises (traffic noise and
vibration sounds, etc.), which may prevent
the system from correctly recognizing the
voice commands.
● Wait until the tone sounds before speaking a
command.
● Speak in a natural conversational voice with-
out pausing between words.
● If the air conditioner is set to “Auto”, the fan
speed is automatically lowered so that your
commands can be recognized more easily.
Giving voice commands
1. Push the TALKswitch located on the
steering wheel.

2. A list of commands appears on thescreen, and the system announces,
“Would you like to access Phone, Naviga-
tion, Information, Audio or Help?”.
3. After the tone sounds and the icon on the screen changes from
to,
speak a command.
Selecting the “Practice” key will start the
practice mode. See “Let’s Practice” earlier in
this section.
4. Continue to follow the voice menu prompts and speak after the tone sounds
until your desired operation is completed.
Selecting the “Help ” key can display the
detailed information of the each command. Operating tips :
●
Say a command after the tone.
● Commands that are available are always
shown on the display and spoken through
voice menu prompts. Commands other than
those that are displayed are not accepted.
Please follow the prompts given by the
system.
● If the command is not recognized, the sys-
tem announces, “Please say again”. Repeat
the command in a clear voice.
● Push the BACK button once to return to the
previous screen.
● To exit the voice recognition system, push
and hold the TALK
switch. The mes-
sage, “Voice canceled” will be announced.
● To skip the voice guidance function and give
the command immediately, press the TALK
switch to interrupt the system. Re-
member to speak after the tone.
● If you want to adjust the volume of the
system feedback, push the volume control
buttons [+] or [] on the steering switch or
use the audio system volume knob while the
system is making an announcement. How to speak numbers :
INFINITI Voice Recognition requires a certain
way to speak numbers when giving voice com-
mands. Refer to the following examples.
General rule
Only single digits 0 (zero) to 9 can be used. (For
example, if you would like to say 500, “five zero
zero” can be used, but “five hundred” cannot.)
Examples
●
1-800-662-6200
– “One eight zero zero six six two six two zero zero”
Improving Recognition of Phone numbers
You can improve the recognition of phone num-
bers by saying the phone number in three
groups of numbers. For example, when you try
to call 800-662-6200, say “eight zero zero”
first, and the system will then ask you for the
next three digits. Then, say “six six two”. After
recognition, the system will then ask for the last
four digits. Say, “six two zero zero”. Using this
method of phone digit entry can improve recog-
nition performance.

ALTERNATE COMMAND MODE
The following section is applicable when Alter-
nate Command Mode is activated.
When Alternate Command Mode is activated, an
expanded list of commands can be used after
pressing the TALK
switch. In this mode,
available commands are not fully shown on the
display or prompted. Review the expanded
command list when this mode is active. See
examples of Alternate Command Mode screens.
Please note that in this mode the recognition
success rate may be affected as the number of
available commands and ways of speaking each
command are increased. To improve the recog-
nition success rate, try using the Speaker Ad-
aptation Function available in that mode. (See
“Speaker adaptation function (for Alternate
Command Mode)” later in this section.) Other-
wise it is recommended that Alternate Com-
mand Mode be turned OFF and Standard Mode
be used for the best recognition performance.
