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: ªPhonetic data down-
loaded. Please wait.º or a beep sounds.
Before starting
To get the best performance from INFINITI Voice
Recognition, observe the following:
c Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as
possible. Close the windows to eliminate the
surrounding noises (traffic noises, vibration
sounds, etc.), which may prevent the system
from recognizing the voice commands cor-
rectly.
c When the climate control is in the AUTO
mode, the fan speed decreases automati-
cally for easy recognition.
c Wait until a tone sounds before speaking a
command.
c Speak in a natural voice without pausing
between words.
Giving voice command
1. Push and release the TALKswitch
located on the steering wheel.

Operating tips :
c Voice commands cannot be accepted when
the icon is
.
c The list displayed can be scrolled by tilting
the ENTER switch on the steering wheel.
c If the command is not recognized, the sys-
tem announces, ªPlease say againº. Repeat
the command in a clear voice. c
Push the BACKbutton once to return to the
previous screen.
c If you want to cancel the command, push
and hold the TALK
switch for 1 sec-
ond. The message ªVoice canceledº will be
announced.

system feedback, push the volume control
buttons (+ or 2) on the steering wheel 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, ªfive zero
zeroº can be used, but ªfive hundredº cannot. Phone numbers
Speak phone numbers according to the follow-
ing examples:
c
1-800-662-6200
± ªDial one eight zero zero six six two six two zero zero.º
Note 1: For the best voice recognition phone
dialing results, say phone numbers as single
digits.
Note 2: You cannot say 555-6000 as ªfive five
five six thousandsº.
Note 3: When speaking a house number, speak
the number ª0º as ªzeroº. If the letter ªo (Oh)º
is included in the house number, it will not be
recognized as the number ª0 (zero)º even if you
speak ªohº instead of ªzeroº. You can only say
ªzeroº for ª0 (Zero)º. You can say either ªzeroº
or ªohº for ªo (Oh)º.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
The system should respond correctly to all voice commands without difficulty. If problems are encountered, follow the solutions given in this guide for
the appropriate error.
Where the solutions are listed by number, try each solution in turn, starting with number one, until the problem is resolved.
Symptom/error messageSolution
Displays ªCOMMAND NOT RECOGNIZEDº or the
system fails to interpret the command correctly. 1. Ensure that the command format is valid, see ªCommand Listº earlier in this section.
2. Speak clearly without pausing between words and at a level appropriate to the ambient noise level.
3. Ensure that the ambient noise level is not excessive, for example, windows open or defrost on.
NOTE:
If it is too noisy to use the phone, it is likely that voice commands will not be recognized.
4. If optional words of the command have been omitted, then the command should be tried with these
in place.
The system consistently selects the wrong voic-
etag in the phonebook. 1. Ensure that the voicetag requested matches what was originally stored. (See ªBLUETOOTH
THANDS-
FREE PHONE SYSTEM WITH NAVIGATION SYSTEMº earlier in this section; page 4-74.)
2. Replace one of the voicetags being confused with a different voicetag.

Additional information
cThe TPMS does not monitor the tire pressure
of the spare tire.
c The TPMS will activate only when the vehicle
is driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h).
Also, this system may not detect a sudden
drop in tire pressure (for example a flat tire
while driving).
c The low tire pressure warning light does not
automatically turn off when the tire pressure
is adjusted. After the tire is inflated to the
recommended pressure, the vehicle must be
driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h) to
activate the TPMS and turn off the low tire
pressure warning light. Use a tire pressure
gauge to check the tire pressure.
c Tire pressure rises and falls depending on
the heat caused by the vehicle's operation
and the outside temperature. Low outside
temperature can lower the temperature of
the air inside the tire which can cause a
lower tire inflation pressure. This may cause
the low tire pressure warning light to illumi-
nate. If the warning light illuminates in low
ambient temperature, check the tire pres-
sure for all four tires. c
You can also check the pressure of all tires
(except the spare tire) on the display. (See
ªHOW TO USE INFO BUTTONº in the ª4.
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice
recognition systemsº section.)
After tire rotation is performed, tire pressure
will not be displayed in the actual tire posi-
tion. Drive the vehicle at over 25 MPH (40
km/h) for approximately 10 minutes to reset
the display.
For additional information, see ªLow tire pres-
sure warning lightº in the ª2. Instruments and
controlsº section and ªTIRE PRESSURE MONI-
TORING SYSTEM (TPMS)º in the ª6. In case of
emergencyº section.
WARNING
c If the low tire pressure warning light illumi-
nates or LOW PRESSURE information is dis-
played on the monitor screen while driving,
avoid sudden steering maneuvers or abrupt
braking, reduce vehicle speed, pull off the
road to a safe location and stop the vehicle
as soon as possible. Driving with under-
inflated tires may permanently damage the
tires and increase the likelihood of tire fail-
ure. Serious vehicle damage could occur and
may lead to an accident and could result in
serious personal injury. Check the tire pres-
sure for all four tires. Adjust the tire pressure
to the recommended COLD tire pressure
shown on the Tire and Loading Information
label to turn the low tire pressure warning
light OFF. If you have a flat tire, replace it
with a spare tire as soon as possible. (See
ªFLAT TIREº in the ª6. In case of emergencyº
section for changing a flat tire.)
c When a spare tire is mounted or a wheel is
replaced, tire pressure will not be indicated,
the TPMS will not function and the low tire
pressure warning light will flash for approxi-
mately 1 minute. The light will remain on
after 1 minute. Contact your INFINITI retailer
as soon as possible for tire replacement
and/or system resetting.
