. Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as
possible. Close the windows to eliminate the
surrounding noises (traffic noises, vibration
sounds, etc.), which may prevent the system
Heater, air conditioner, audio and phone systems4-93

4-94Heater, air conditioner, audio and phone systems
from recognizing the voice commands cor-
rectly.

How to say numbers
NISSAN Voice Recognition requires a certain
way to speak numbers in voice commands.
Refer to the following examples.
General rule: Either “zero” or “oh” can be used
for “0”.
Phone numbers:
Speak phone numbers according to the follow-
ing example. For 1-800-662-6200, say dial
number and then speak the phone number in
any of the following formats:
. “one eight oh oh six six two six two oh oh”
. “one eight hundred six six two six two oh oh”
. “one eight zero zero six six two six two oh
oh”
For the best voice recognition phone dialing
results, say phone numbers as single digits.
Also, full numbers can only be spoken for “800”.
For example, you cannot say 555-6000 as “five
five five six thousand”.

The system should respond correctly to all voice commands without difficulty. If problems are encountered, follow the solutions given in this guide for the
appropriate error. Where the solutions are listed by number, try each solution in turn, starting with number one, until the problem is resolved.

Not Recognized” or the system fails
to recognize the command correctly. 1. Ensure that the command format is valid. Use the “List Commands” or “What Can I Say?” command under the “Help” menu.

3. Ensure that the ambient noise level is not excessive (for example, with the windows open or the defroster 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.

WARNING
.Do not leave children or adults who
would normally require the support
of others alone in your vehicle. Pets
should not be left alone either. They
could accidentally injure themselves
or others through inadvertent op-
eration of the vehicle. Also, on hot,
sunny days, temperatures in a
closed vehicle could quickly become
high enough to cause severe or
possibly fatal injuries to people or
animals.
. Properly secure all cargo with ropes
or straps to help prevent it from
sliding or shifting. Do not place
cargo higher than the seatbacks. In
a sudden stop or collision, unse-
cured cargo could cause personal
injury.
EXHAUST GAS (carbon monoxide)
WARNING
.Do not breathe exhaust gases; they
contain colorless and odorless car-
bon monoxide. Carbon monoxide is
dangerous. It can cause uncon-
sciousness or death.
. If you suspect that exhaust fumes
are entering the vehicle, drive with
all windows fully open, and have the
vehicle inspected immediately.
. Do not run the engine in closed
spaces such as a garage.
. Do not park the vehicle with the
engine running for any extended
length of time.
. Keep the lift gate closed while
driving, otherwise exhaust gases
could be drawn into the passenger
compartment. If you must drive with
the lift gate open, follow these
precautions:
1. Open all the windows.
2. Set the
air recirculation to off
and the fan control to high to circulate the air.
. If electrical wiring or other cable
connections must pass to a trailer
through the seal on the lift gate or
the body, follow the manufacturer’s
recommendation to prevent carbon
monoxide entry into the vehicle.
. If a special body, camper or other
equipment is added for recreational
or other usage, follow the manufac-
turer’s recommendation to prevent
carbon monoxide entry into the
vehicle. (Some recreational vehicle
appliances such as stoves, refrig-
erators, heaters, etc. may also gen-
erate carbon monoxide.)
. The exhaust system and body
should be inspected by a qualified
mechanic whenever:
— The vehicle is raised for service.
— You suspect that exhaust fumes
are entering into the passenger
compartment.
— You notice a change in the sound of the exhaust system.
— You have had an accident invol- ving damage to the exhaust
