mands are described here.

9. The system makes a call to 800-662-6200.
INFO:
. Speaking “800-662-6200” (10 continuous
digits) or “662-6200” (7 continuous digits)
is acceptable, if the area code is not
necessary. However the 3-3-4 digit group-
ing is recommended for improved recogni-
tion.
“How to speak numbers” (page 9-20)
. The NISSAN voice recognition system is not
limited to recognizing phone numbers of
only 7 or 10 digits. To dial a number in a
format other than the 3-3-4 digit grouping,
use the “International Call” command.
. If “Change Number” is spoken during phone
number entry, the system will automatically
request that the number be repeated 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 a voice
command, please try repeating the com-
mand using a natural voice. Speaking too
slowly or too loudly may further decrease
recognition performance.

9-2Voice recognition
NISSAN Voice Recognition allows hands-free
operation of the navigation system and other
systems equipped on this vehicle, in one of two
modes, Standard Mode or Alternate Command
Mode. Standard Mode allows the operation of
Navigation, Phone, Audio, Information and Help.
The commands that are available are always
shown on the display and announced by the
system. To perform operations, simply follow the
prompts given by the system. In Standard Mode,
hands-free operation of Change map view,
Route selection and Bluetooth Audio, etc. is
not available through Voice Recognition.
Alternate Command Mode allows advanced
operations. When this mode is active, an
expanded list of commands can be spoken after
pushing >, and the voice command
menu prompts are turned off. Note that in this
mode the recognition success rate may be
affected because the number of available
commands and ways of speaking each com-
mand are increased. Otherwise, it is recom-
mended that Alternate Command Mode be
turned OFF and Standard Mode be used for
the best recognition performance.
“Alternate command mode” (page 9-12)
INFO:
. To improve recognition success when Alter-
nate Command Mode is active, try using the
Speaker Adaptation function available in that
mode.
“Speaker adaptation” (page 9-21)
Otherwise, it is recommended that Alternate
Command Mode be turned OFF and Stan-
dard Mode be used for the best recognition
performance.
. For the voice commands for the audio,
phone and other systems, refer to the
vehicle Owner’s Manual. The following sec-
tions refer only to the navigation, phone and
information systems.
. The voice recognition system cannot be
operated when the soft top is not closed (for
Roadster and CrossCabriolet models).
