USING THE SYSTEMY51D-V-E01-5E81D89F-C8CF-4D6D-BD66-54D31A01DF23
InitializationY51D-V-E01-B86C7854-275F-4941-81CB-A3A6D12FE6CEWhen the ignition switch is pushed to the
ON position, INFINITI Voice Recognition is
initialized, which can take up to one
minute. When completed, the system is

a beep sounds.
Before startingY51D-V-E01-553337EB-04D2-4696-A13E-069A82076309To get the best recognition performance
from INFINITI Voice Recognition, observe
the following:
. The interior of the vehicle should be as
quiet as possible. Close the windows to
eliminate the surrounding noises (traf-
fic noise and vibration sounds, etc.),
which may prevent the system from
correctly recognizing the voice com-
mands.
. 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 your commands can be recog-
nized more easily.

Operating tips:
GUID-CA441E56-2FD0-4540-A74C-DB510E9F7AE0. Say a command after the tone.
. Commands that are available are al-
ways shown on the display and spoken
through voice menu prompts. Com-
mands other than those that are dis-
played are not accepted. Please follow
the prompts given by the system.
. If the command is not recognized, the
system announces, “Please say again”.
Repeat the command in a clear voice.
. Push the BACK button once to return to
the previous screen.
. To exit the voice recognition system,
push and hold the TALK
switch. The
message, “Voice canceled” will be
announced.
. To skip the voice guidance function and
give the command immediately, press
the TALK
switch to interrupt the
system. Remember to speak after the
tone. How to speak numbers:
GUID-CA441E56-2FD0-4540-A74C-DB510E9F7AE0INFINITI 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
of phone digit entry can improve recogni-
tion performance.
When speaking a house number, speak the
number “0”as“zero ”. If the letter “o (Oh)”is included in the house number, it will not
be recognized as the number
“0 (zero)”
even if you speak “oh”instead of “zero”.
Please speak “zero”for the number “0
(zero)”, “oh”for the letter “o (oh)”
Send digits using dial tone:
GUID-CA441E56-2FD0-4540-A74C-DB510E9F7AE0. Press the TALKswitch during a
phone call.
. The menu will be launched and you will
be provided with the following gui-
dance: "Please say the digits to dial".
. After guidance, say the digits of the
number you want to send. After this,
the digits that have been recognized
will be read out.
. If you press the ENTER button on the
steering wheel or on the INFINITI con-
troller, the selected digits will be sent.

number of available commands and ways
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.4-131).) Otherwise it is
recommended that Alternate Command
Mode be turned OFF and Standard Mode
be used for the best recognition perfor-
mance.
