PHONE SETTINGS
Call
●(a name)
If there are entries stored in the Phone Book,
a number associated with a name and loca-
tion can be dialed. See “Phone book regis-
tration” in this section to learn how to store
entries. When prompted by the system, say
the name of the phone book entry to call.
The system acknowledges the name. If there
are multiple locations associated with the
name, the system asks the user to choose
the location.
Once the name and location are confirmed,
the system begins the call. ●
Number
When prompted by the system, speak the
number to call.
● Redial
Use the Redial command to call the last
number of outgoing calls. The system ac-
knowledges the command, repeats the num-
ber and begins dialing. If a redial number
does not exist, the system announces,
“There is no number to redial” and ends the
VR session.
● Callback
Use the Callback command to call the last
number in incoming calls. The system ac-
knowledges the command, repeats the num-
ber and begins dialing. If an incoming call
number does not exist, the system an-
nounces, “There is no number to call back”
and ends the VR session.
● Help
The system announces the available com-
mands.
Phonebook
● (a name)
Use the name command to seek the name
and locations registered in the phonebook in
alphabetical order. When the system ac-
knowledges the alphabet the user spoke,
the system announces all registered names
and locations beginning with that alphabet.
Playback of the list can be stopped at any
time by pressing a button on the steering
wheel. The system ends the VR session.

Initialization
When the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position, INFINITI Voice Recognition is initial-
ized, which may take up to one minute. When
completed, the system is ready to accept voice
commands. If the TALK
switch is pushed
before the initialization completes the display
will show the message: “System not ready.” or
a beep sounds.
Before starting
To get the best performance from INFINITI Voice
Recognition, observe the following.
● 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.

CAUTION
Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as pos-
sible to hear the tone clearly.
The sonar system sounds a tone to warn the
driver of obstacles near the bumper. When the
“Sonar Display” key is ON, the sonar indicator
will also appear in the center display. (See
“SONAR INDICATOR” later in this section.) The
system detects rear obstacles when the selector
or shift lever is in the R (Reverse) position.
The system may not detect objects at speeds
above 6 MPH (10 km/h) and may not detect
certain angular or moving objects.
The sonar system detects obstacles up to 3.9 ft
(1.2 m) from the bumper with a decreased
coverage area at the outer corners of the bum-
per. Refer to the illustration for approximate
zone coverage areas. As you move closer to the
obstacle, the rate of the tone increases. When
the obstacle is less than 11.8 in (30 cm) away,
the tone will sound continuously. Keep the corner/center sonar (located on the
bumper fascia) free from snow, ice and large
accumulations of dirt (do not clean the sonar
with sharp objects). If the sonar is covered, it
will affect the accuracy of the sonar system.
The sensitivity level of the corner/center sonar
can be adjusted (higher or lower) in the SONAR
setting display. (See “HOW TO USE SETTING
BUTTON” in the “4. Monitor, climate, audio,
phone and voice recognition systems” section
for the “Sonar” settings.)

SONAR INDICATOR
With the “Sonar Display” key ON in the “Sonar”
settings, when the corner/center sonar detects
obstacles near the bumper, a tone will sound
and the sonar indicator will appear in the center
display. When the rear view monitor is dis-
played, the sonar indicator will appear in the
upper corner of the display

position of the object and the distance to the
object with its color and rate of blinking.
SSD0928
5-46Starting and driving
When an object is detected, the indicator
(green) appears and blinks (the tone sounds
intermittently). When the vehicle moves closer
to the object, the color of the indicator turns
yellow and the rate of blinking increases (the
rate of the tone increases). When the corner of
the vehicle is very close to the object, less than
11.8 in (30 cm) away, the indicator stops blink-
ing and turns red (the tone sounds continu-
ously).
When the rear view monitor is displayed, the
colors of the sonar indicator and the distance
guide lines in the rear view indicate different
distances to the object.
The sonar indicator can be turned off in the
SONAR setting display. (See “HOW TO USE
SETTING BUTTON” in the “4. Monitor, climate,
audio, phone and voice recognition systems”
section for the “Sonar” settings.) When the
sonar indicator is off, only a tone sounds when
the sonar detects obstacles.
SONAR SYSTEM OFF SWITCH
The sonar system OFF switch on the instrument
panel allows the driver to turn the sonar system
on and off. To turn the sonar system on and off,
the ignition switch must be in the “ON” posi-
tion. The indicator light
1on the switch will
illuminate when the system is turned off. If the
indicator light flashes when the sonar system is
not turned off, it may indicate a malfunction in
the sonar system.
WARNING
If the engine is not running or is turned off while
driving, the power assist for the steering will
not work. Steering will be harder to operate.
The power assisted steering uses a hydraulic
pump, driven by the engine, to assist steering.
If the engine stops or the drive belt breaks, you
will still have control of the vehicle. However,
much greater steering effort is needed, espe-
cially in sharp turns and at low speeds.
