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. Phone numbers
Speak phone numbers according to the follow-
ing examples:
●
1-800-662-6200
– “Dial one eight zero zero six six two six two zero zero.”
Note 1: For the best voice recognition phone
dialing results, say phone numbers as single
digits.
Note 2: You cannot say 555-6000 as “five five
five six thousands”.
Note 3: When speaking a house number, speak
the number “0” as “zero”. If the letter “o (Oh)”
is included in the house number, it will not be
recognized as the number “0 (zero)” even if you
speak “oh” instead of “zero”. Please speak
“zero” for the number “0 (zero)”, “oh” for the
letter “o (oh)”.
Speaker adaptation function (for

tion performance. The system can memorize the
voices of up to three persons.
Having the system learn the user’s voice:
1. Push the SETTING button on the instru- ment panel and select the “Others” key.
2. Select the “Voice Recognition” key.
3. Select the “Speaker Adaptation” key.

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 “COMMAND NOT RECOGNIZED” or the
system fails to interpret the command correctly. 1. Ensure that the command format is valid, see “Command List” 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 “BLUETOOTH
HANDS-
FREE PHONE SYSTEM (models with navigation system)” earlier in this section; page 4-93.)
2. Replace one of the voicetags being confused with a different voicetag.

MEMO

The brightness of the BSW indicator lights is
adjusted automatically depending on the
brightness of the ambient light.
A chime sounds if the radar sensors have
already detected vehicles when the driver acti-
vates the turn signal. If a vehicle comes into the
detection zone after the driver activates the turn
signal, then only the BSW indicator light flashes
and no chime sounds. (See “BSW DRIVING
SITUATIONS” later in this section)
The BSW system is automatically turned on
when the engine is started and the warning
systems ON indicator light
1illuminates on
the switch. You can turn the BSW system off by
pushing the warning systems switch on the
instrumental panel. This switch will turn on and
off the LDW, BSW and FCW systems at the same
time.
NOTE:
If you continue to push the warning systems
switch from off to on for over 4 seconds, a chime
will sound. This will change the default status of
the LDW, BSW and FCW systems to OFF so that
these systems will not automatically turn on
when the engine is started. If this procedure is
repeated, the default status will return to ON.
WARNING
● Do not use the BSW system when towing a
trailer because the system may not function
properly.
● Excessive noise (e.g. audio system volume,
open vehicle window) will interfere with the
chime sound, and it may not be heard.
● The radar sensors may not be able to detect
and activate BSW when certain objects are
present such as:
– Pedestrians, bicycles, animals
– Several types of vehicles such as motor- cycles
– Oncoming vehicles
– Vehicles remaining in the detection zone when you accelerate from a stop
(See “BSW DRIVING SITUATIONS” later in
this section)
– A vehicle merging into an adjacent lane at a speed approximately the same as your
vehicle
(See “BSW DRIVING SITUATIONS” later in
this section) – A vehicle approaching rapidly from be-
hind.
(See “BSW DRIVING SITUATIONS” later in
this section)
– A vehicle which your vehicle overtakes rapidly.
(See “BSW DRIVING SITUATIONS” later in
this section)
● Severe weather or road spray conditions
may reduce the ability of the radar to detect
other vehicles.
● The radar sensors detection zone is de-
signed based on a standard lane width.
When driving in a wider lane, the radar
sensors may not detect vehicles in an adja-
cent lane. When driving in a narrow lane, the
radar sensors may detect vehicles driving
two lanes away.
● The radar sensors are designed to ignore
most stationary objects, however objects
such as guardrails, walls, foliage and parked
vehicles may occasionally be detected. This
is a normal operating condition.
