MANUAL CONTROL
While using the voice recognition system, it is
possible to select menu options by using the
steering wheel controls instead of speaking voice
commands. This can be especially helpful if the
noise of driving makes it difficult for the voice
recognition system to accurately interpret com-
mands. The manual control mode does not allow
dialing a phone number by digits. The user may
select an entry from the Phonebook or Recent
Calls lists. To re-activate voice recognition, exit
the manual control mode by pressing and holding
the PHONE/END (
) button. At that time,
pressing the PHONE/SEND
(Type A) or
the
(Type B) button will start the Hands
Free Phone System.

USING THE SYSTEM
The system allows hands-free operation of the
Bluetooth® Hands-Free Phone System.
If the vehicle is in motion, some commands may
not be available so full attention may be given to
vehicle operation.
Initialization
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, NISSAN Voice Recognition is initialized,
which takes a few seconds. If the
(Type A)
or the
(Type B) button is pressed before the initialization completes, the system will an-
nounce “Hands-free phone system not ready”
and will not react to voice commands.
Operating tips
To get the best performance out of the NISSAN
Voice Recognition system, observe the following:
● Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as
possible. Close the windows to eliminate
surrounding noises (traffic noises, vibration
sounds, etc.) , which may prevent the system
from recognizing voice commands correctly.
● Wait until the tone sounds before speaking a
command. Otherwise, the command will not
be received properly.
● Start speaking a command within 5 seconds
after the tone sounds.
● Speak in a natural voice without pausing
between words.
Giving voice commands
To operate NISSAN Voice Recognition, press
and release the
(Type A) or the(Type B) button located on the steering wheel.
After the tone sounds, speak a command.
The command given is picked up by the micro-
phone, and voice feedback is given when the
command is accepted. ●
If you need to hear the available commands
for the current menu again, say “Help” and
the system will repeat them.
● If a command is not recognized, the system
announces, “Command not recognized.
Please try again.” Make sure the command is
said exactly as prompted by the system and
repeat the command in a clear voice.
● If you want to go back to the previous com-
mand, you can say “Go back” or “Correc-
tion” any time the system is waiting for a
response.
● You can cancel a command when the sys-
tem is waiting for a response by saying,
“Cancel” or “Quit.” The system announces
“Cancel” and ends the Voice Recognition
session. You can also press and hold
the
button on the steering wheel for
5 seconds at any time to end the Voice
Recognition session. Whenever the Voice
Recognition session is cancelled, a double
beep is played to indicate you have exited
the system.
● If you want to adjust the volume of the voice
feedback, press the volume control switches
(+ or -) on the steering wheel while being
provided with feedback. You can also use
the radio volume control knob.

Voice Prompt Interrupt
In most cases you can interrupt the voice feed-
back to speak the next command by pressing
the
(Type A) or the(Type B) button
on the steering wheel. After interrupting the sys-
tem, wait for a beep before speaking your com-
mand.
One Shot Call
To use the system faster, you may speak the
second level commands with the main menu
command on the main menu. For example, press
the
(Type A) or the(Type B) button
and after the tone say, “Call Redial”.
