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 models) .

may take up to one minute. When completed,
the system is ready to accept voice commands.
If > is pushed before the initialization
completes, the display will show the message:
“System not ready”.
BEFORE STARTING
To get the best recognition performance from
Voice Recognition, observe the following items.
. The interior of the vehicle should be as quiet
as possible. Close the windows to eliminate
the surrounding noises (traffic noise and
vibration sounds, etc.) , which may prevent
the system from correctly recognizing the
voice commands.
. Wait until the tone sounds before speaking a
command.
. Speak in a natural conversational voice
without pausing between words.
. If the air conditioner is set to “Auto”, the fan
speed is automatically lowered so that voice
commands can be recognized more easily.

How to speak numbers
NISSAN Voice Recognition requires a certain
way to speak numbers when giving voice
commands. Refer to the following examples.
General rule:
Only single digits 0 (zero) to 9 can be used. (For
example, if speaking 500, “five zero zero” can be
used, but “five hundred” cannot.
Examples:
1-800-662-6200
“One eight zero zero six six two six two zero
zero”
Improving Recognition of Phone numbers:
Recognition of phone numbers can be improved
by saying the phone number in 3 groups of
numbers. For example, to call 800-662-6200,
say “Eight Zero Zero” first, and the system will
then ask to speak the next three digits. Then, say
“Six Six Two”. After recognition, the system will
then ask to speak the last 4 digits. Say, “Six Two Zero Zero”. Using this method of phone digit
entry can improve recognition performance.
INFO:
For best recognition, speak “zero” for the
number “0” and “oh” for the letter “o”.
