necessary to speak two or more com-
mands. As examples, some additional
basic operations by voice commands are

Note:
. You can also speak “800-662-6200”(10
continuous digits) or “662-6200”(7
continuous digits), if the area code is
not necessary. However, the 3-3-4 digit
grouping is recommended for improved
recognition. (See “How to speak num-
bers” earlier in this section.) .
You can only say a phone number using
the 3-3-4 grouping, 7 digits, and 10
digits using this command. Please use
the “International Call” command for
all other formats.
. If you say “Change Number” during
phone number entry, the system will
automatically request that you repeat
the number using the 3-3-4 format. In
this case please say the area code first
and then follow the prompts.
. Do not add a “1”in front of the area
code when speaking phone numbers.
. If the system does not recognize your
command, please try repeating the
command using a natural voice. Speak-
ing too slow or too loudly may further
decrease recognition performance.

INFINITI VOICE RECOGNITION AL-
TERNATE COMMAND MODE
The 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 pushing 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 examples of
Alternate Command Mode screens.
Please note that in this mode the recogni-
tion success rate may be affected as the
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)” later in this section.) Other-
wise it is recommended that Alternate
Command Mode be turned OFF and Stan-
dard Mode be used for the best recognition
performance.
