How to speak commands:
GUID-D73A39BF-43C8-459F-9C24-47B7F579C407The Voice Recognition System requires a
certain way to speak voice commands.
Speak normally and clearly in the direction
of the microphone (located in front of the
rearview mirror). Every digit of the number
must be spoken individually and in a
normal manner. The hands-free mode will
work best when the telephone number is
spoken in blocks of three to five digits.
After each spoken block is terminated, the
system will repeat the three to five digits
and wait for you to speak the next digit or
block of digits required for the telephone
number.
See “List of voice commands” (P.4-95) for
the appropriate commands that can be
spoken for the hands-free mode system.
Example:
In order to initiate a call, speak “Phone-
book”.
INFO
. If you are controlling the telephone
system by voice command for the first
time or do not know the appropriate
voice command, speak “Help”. The

existing phone. If the user tries to
connect a phone that has already been
connected to the vehicle system, the
system announces the name that the
phone is already using. The connecting
procedure will then be cancelled.
The Add Phone command is not avail-
able when the vehicle is moving.
. Select Phone
Use the Select Phone command to
select a phone of lesser priority when
two or more phones connected with
Bluetooth
®Hands-Free Phone System
are in the vehicle at the same time.
The system asks the user to name the
phone and confirm the selection.
Once the selection is confirmed, the
selected phone remains active until the
ignition switch is placed in the OFF
position or a new phone is selected.
. Delete Phone
Use the Delete Phone command to
delete a specific phone or all phones
from Bluetooth
®Hands-Free Phone
System. The system announces the
names of the phones already paired
with the system and their priority level.
The system then gives the option to
delete a specific phone, all phones or listen to the list again. Once the user
chooses to delete a phone or all
phones, the system asks the user to
confirm.
NOTE:
When the user deletes a phone, the
associated phone book for that phone will
also be deleted.
. Replace Phone
Use the Replace Phone command to
change the priority level of the active
phone.
The priority level determines which
phone is active when more than one
paired Bluetooth
®phone is in the
vehicle.
The system states the priority level of
the active phone and asks for a new
priority level (1, 2, 3, 4, 5).
If the new priority level is already being
used for another phone, the two
phones will swap priority levels.
For example, if the current priority levels
are:
Priority Level 1 = Phone A
Priority Level 2 = Phone B
Priority Level 3 = Phone C and you change the priority level of Phone
C to Level 1, then:
Priority Level 1 = Phone C
Priority Level 2 = Phone B
Priority Level 3 = Phone A

GUID-9482D93A-37E1-4228-9ED9-F243DD54E8F2INFINITI Voice Recognition allows hands-
free operation of the Phone, Navigation,
Information and Audio systems in one of
two modes, Standard Mode or Alternate
Command Mode.
In Standard Mode, commands that are
available are always shown on the display
and announced by the system. You can
complete your desired operation by simply
following the prompts given by the system.
(See “INFINITI Voice Recognition Standard
Mode” (P.4-104) for details.)
For advanced operation, you can use the
Alternate Command Mode. (See “INFINITI
Voice Recognition Alternate Command
Mode” (P.4-116) for details.) When this
mode is active, an expanded list of
commands can be spoken after pushing
the TALK
switch, and the voice
command menu prompts are turned off.
Review the expanded command list, which
is available when this mode is active. Note
that in this mode the recognition success
rate may be affected as the number of
available commands and the ways of
speaking each command are increased.
To switch one mode to another, see each

How to speak numbers:
GUID-D73A39BF-43C8-459F-9C24-47B7F579C407INFINITI Voice Recognition requires a cer-
tain 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 you would like to say 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
You can improve the recognition of phone
numbers by saying the phone number in
three groups of numbers. For example,
when you try to call 800-662-6200, say
“eight zero zero” first, and the system will
then ask you for the next three digits. Then,
say “six six two”. After recognition, the
system will then ask for the last four digits.
Say, “six two zero zero”. Using this method

TERNATE COMMAND MODE
GUID-0F87D2A0-033E-4CD1-9FE3-7FE45EC95A78The following section is applicable when
Alternate Command Mode is activated.
When Alternate Command Mode is acti-
vated, an expanded list of commands can
be used after pressing the TALK
switch. In this mode, available commands
are not fully shown on the display or
prompted. Review the expanded command
list when this mode is active. See exam-

of speaking each command are increased.
To improve the recognition success rate,
try using the Speaker Adaptation Function
available in that mode. (See “Speaker
adaptation function (for Alternate Com-
mand Mode)” (P.4-128).) Otherwise it is
recommended that Alternate Command
Mode be turned OFF and Standard Mode
be used for the best recognition perfor-
