TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDEGUID-5C44B4DB-B58B-4FD5-9BBE-F50CD8230F9BThe 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”(P.4-116).
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 voicetag in
the phonebook. 1. Ensure that the voicetag requested matches what was originally stored. (See
“Bluetooth
®Hands-Free Phone
System (models with navigation system)” (P.4-84).)
2. Replace one of the voicetags being confused with a different voicetag.
The system cannot be operated. 1. Make sure that the retractable hard top is usable. If the retractable hard top is not working, contact an INFINITI
retailer.
2. Close the retractable hard top.
3. Open and close the retractable hard top before operating the system.

9-24Technical and consumer information
GUID-9023DE11-7F99-4014-8B76-63304941B6C9This vehicle is equipped with an Event
Data Recorder (EDR). The main purpose of
an EDR is to record, in certain crash or
near crash-like situations, such as an air
bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle,
data that will assist in understanding how
a vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is
designed to record data related to vehicle
dynamics and safety systems for a short
period of time, typically 30 seconds or
less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to
record such data as:
.How various systems in your vehicle
were operating;
. Whether or not the driver and passen-
ger safety belts were buckled/fas-
tened;
. How far (if at all) the driver was
depressing the accelerator and/or
brake pedal; and,
. How fast the vehicle was traveling.
. Sounds are not recorded.
These data can help provide a better
understanding of the circumstances in
which crashes and injuries occur. NOTE:
EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only
if a nontrivial crash situation occurs; no
data are recorded by the EDR under normal
driving conditions and no personal data (e.g. name, gender, age and crash loca-
tion) are recorded. However, other parties,
such as law enforcement, could combine
the EDR data with the type of personally
identifying data routinely acquired during
a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special
equipment is required and access to the
vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to
the vehicle manufacturer and INFINITI
retailer, other parties, such as law en-
forcement, that have the special equip-
ment, can read the information if they
have access to the vehicle or the EDR. EDR
data will only be accessed with the
consent of the vehicle owner or lessee or
as otherwise required or permitted by law.GUID-19D5C887-4796-4FEC-856C-8B97CA64084BGenuine INFINITI Service Manual for this
model and prior models can be purchased.

tion for your vehicle. This manual is the
