TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
The system should respond correctly to all voice commands without difficulty. If problems are encountered, try the following solutions.
Where the solutions are listed by number, try each solution in turn, starting with number 1, until the problem is resolved.
SymptomSolution
The system fails to interpret the command
correctly. 1. Ensure that the command is valid. (See “NISSAN Voice Recognition System (models with navigation system)” (P.4-99) .)
2. Ensure that the command is spoken after the tone.
3. Speak clearly without pausing between words and at a level appropriate to the ambient noise level in the vehicle.
4. Ensure that the ambient noise level is not excessive (for example, windows open or defroster on) . NOTE: If it is too noisy to
use the phone, it is likely that the voice commands will not be recognized.
5. If more than one command was said at a time, try saying the commands separately.
The system consistently selects the
wrong voicetag. 1. Ensure that the voicetag requested matches what was originally stored. (See “Quick Dial” (P.4-79) .)
2. Replace one of the names being confused with a new name.
The system cannot be operated. Close the soft top (for Roadster models) .

The system fails to interpret the command correctly. 1. Ensure that the command is valid. See “List of voice commands” (P.4-92) .
2. Ensure that the command is spoken after the tone.
3. Speak clearly without pausing between words and at a level appropriate to the ambient noise level in the vehicle.
4. Ensure that the ambient noise level is not excessive (for example, windows open or defroster on) . NOTE: If it is too
noisy to use the phone, it is likely that the voice commands will not be recognized.
5. If more than one command was said at a time, try saying the commands separately.
6. If the system consistently fails to recognize commands, the voice training procedure should be carried out to
improve the recognition response for the speaker. See “Speaker Adaptation (SA) mode” (P.4-95) .
The system consistently selects the wrong entry from
the phonebook. 1. Ensure that the phonebook entry name requested matches what was originally stored. This can be confirmed by
using the “List Names” command. See “Phonebook (phones without automatic phonebook download function)”
(P.4-93) .
2. Replace one of the names being confused with a new name.

Symptom/error messageSolution
The system fails to interpret the command correctly. 1. Ensure that the command format is valid, see “Command List” (P.4-104) . 2. Speak clearly without pausing between words and at a level appropriate to the ambient noise level.
3. Ensure that the ambient noise level is not excessive, for example, windows open or defrost on.
NOTE:
If it is too noisy to use the phone, it is likely that voice commands will not be recognized.
4. If optional words of the command have been omitted, then the command should be tried with these in place.
The system consistently selects the wrong voicetag in
the phonebook. 1. Ensure that the voicetag requested matches what was originally stored. (See “Bluetooth
®hands-free phone
system (models with navigation system)” (P.4-76) .)
2. Replace one of the voicetags being confused with a different voicetag.
The system cannot be operated. 1. Make sure that the soft top (for Roadster models) is usable. If the soft top is not working, contact a NISSAN dealer.
2. Close the soft top (for Roadster models) .
3. Open and close the soft top (for Roadster models) before operating the system.

TOWING RECOMMENDED BY
NISSAN (NISMO models)
CAUTION
Do not tow NISMO models with any
wheel on the ground, or with the front
or rear wheels raised, because this may
cause damage to the front bumper with
an aerodynamic splitter, rear bumper
with an aerodynamic diffuser or ex-
haust pipes.
NISSAN recommends that you place the vehicle
on a flatbed truck as illustrated.
