USING THE SYSTEM
Initialization
When the ignition switch is pushed to the ON

initialized, which takes a few seconds. When
completed, the system is ready to accept voice
commands. If
is pushed before the initial-
ization completes, the display will show the mes-
sage: “System not ready.”
BEFORE STARTING
To get the best recognition performance from
NISSAN Voice Recognition, observe the follow-
ing points:
● The interior of the vehicle should be as quiet
as possible. Close the windows to eliminate
the surrounding noises (traffic noise and vi-
bration 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 with-
out pausing between words.
