may take up to one minute. When completed,
the system is ready to accept voice commands.
If
completes, the display will show the message:
“System not ready”.
BEFORE STARTINGTo get the best recognition performance from
Voice Recognition, observe the following items.
. 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
without pausing between words.
. If the air conditioner is set to “Auto”, the fan
speed is automatically lowered so that voice
commands can be recognized more easily.

How to speak numbersNISSAN Voice Recognition requires a certain
way to speak numbers when giving voice
commands. Refer to the following examples.
General rule:
Only single digits 0 (zero) to 9 can be used. (For
example, if speaking 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:
Recognition of phone numbers can be improved
by saying the phone number in 3 groups of
numbers. For example, to call 800-662-6200,
say “Eight Zero Zero” first, and the system will
then ask to speak the next three digits. Then, say
“Six Six Two”. After recognition, the system will
then ask to speak the last 4 digits. Say, “Six Two
Zero Zero”. Using this method of phone digit
entry can improve recognition performance.
INFO:
For best recognition, speak “zero” for the
number “0” and “oh” for the letter “o”.
