●Laws in some jurisdictions may restrict
the use of “Text-to-Speech”. Check lo-
cal regulations before using this
feature.
● Laws in some jurisdictions may restrict
the use of some of the applications and
features, such as social networking and
texting. Check local regulations for any
requirements.
● Use the text messaging feature after
stopping your vehicle in a safe location.
If you have to use the feature while
driving, exercise extreme caution at all
times so full attention may be given to

● If you are unable to devote full attention
to vehicle operation while using the text
messaging feature, pull off the road to a
safe location and stop your vehicle. NOTE:
Many phones may require special permis-
sion to enable text messaging. Check the

some phones, you may need to enable ‘Noti-
fications’ in the phone’s Bluetooth menu for
text messages to appear on the headunit.
Please consult your phone’s Owner’s
manual. Text message integration requires
that the phone support MAP (Message Ac-
cess Profile) for both receiving and sending

port all text messaging features. Please refer

Operating tips
To get the best performance out of NISSAN
Voice Recognition, observe the following:● 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
from recognizing the voice commands cor-
rectly.
● Wait until a tone sounds before speaking a
command. Otherwise, the command will not
be received properly.
● Start speaking a command within 3.5 sec-
onds after the tone sounds.
● Speak in a natural voice without pausing
between words.
SYSTEM FEATURES
NISSAN Voice Recognition can activate the fol-
lowing systems:
● Bluetooth® Hands-Free Phone System
● Navigation
● Audio
● Information
● My Apps
For additional information on the navigation sys-
tem, refer to the separate Navigation System
Owner’s Manual.
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 following
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 re-
sults, 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”.
