SYSTEM
Initialization
The Voice Recognition system will activate a few
seconds after the ignition switch is turned on.
Once activation is complete, you can start using
the system by pushing the
switch on the
steering wheel and speaking voice commands. If
the
switch on the steering wheel is pushed
before the activation completes, the display will
show a message to wait until the system is ready.
BEFORE STARTING
To get the best recognition performance from the
Voice Recognition system, observe the following
items.
● The interior of the vehicle should be as quiet
as possible. Close the windows to eliminate
surrounding noises (traffic noise and vibra-
tion 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 with-
out pausing between words.GIVING VOICE COMMANDS
1. Push theswitch located on the steer-
ing wheel.
2. A list of commands appear on the screen, and the system provides a voice menu
prompt.
When this screen is displayed, almost all of
the commands can be recognized. Available
commands for each category can be shown
on the right side of the screen. Highlight a
category listed on the left side of the screen
to find your preferred command.

Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-141
Infiniti InTouchTMuses an operating system like
those found on many computers, tablets and cell
phones. Like these devices, processing speed
may vary, and system response delays or resets
may occur intermittently. This does not indicate a
malfunction, and further information on system
operation can be found below.
System Start-Up
Due to the large number of features and capabili-
ties that the Infiniti InTouch
TMneeds to load on
start-up, it may take up to a minute for all func-
tions (such as Apps) to be available. The system
will display “Now Loading All Apps...” during this
time.
System Response Delay
Infiniti InTouch
TMuses an operating system like
those found on many computers, tablets and cell
phones. Like these devices, sometimes pro-
grams do not respond immediately and this may
temporarily delay system use.
In most situations, simply waiting a few moments
longer should be sufficient for the pending opera-
tions to complete.
If the system temporarily does not respond to
commands, the system can be easily reset. Sim-
ply push down the VOL/ON-OFF button for at
least 5 seconds. The system will turn off and
restart. After restart, all functions should be available.
If a navigation route was set, the route should
resume automatically.
System Reset
As noted above, intermittent system resets may
occur during normal operation. You may also
wish to reset the system if you find that a particu-
lar feature is not loading or responding. Often, a
quick system reset will resolve any issue you may
be experiencing. After restart, all functions will be
available as described above.
System Updates
Like many digital devices, the Infiniti InTouch
TMis
designed to allow for software updates as en-
hancements are developed and additional fea-
tures added. If you have questions about system
performance, it is recommended that you contact
an INFINITI retailer to ensure that your vehicle has
had the latest available software installed.
Operating Tips
Infiniti InTouch
TMprovides several methods of
operation to suit your preferences. The following
are suggested operating tips. ●
Operating the control panel, steering wheel
controls, or other controls too quickly can
cause a lag between the control and the
display. Operate the controls carefully and
allow the system to respond to your request.
● INFINITI recommends using Voice Recogni-
tion whenever possible to select options
while driving. Some touch screen function-
ality is intentionally unavailable during driv-
ing. Please view the available voice com-
mands by pushing the
(TALK) switch
and then selecting a category on the display.
● When looking for a street address or Points
of Interest (POI) , remember that you can use
Connected Search and Assisted Search
features within Infiniti InTouch
TMServices to
expand your search methods and results.
The Voice Recognition system recognizes a
defined set of commands. These commands
can be viewed in the display by pushing
the
(TALK) switch and then selecting
a category from the displayed list. The com-
mands can also be found in the Voice Rec-
ognition section under command list. For
additional information, refer to “Command
list” in this section.

AVOIDING COLLISION AND
ROLLOVER
WARNING
Failure to operate this vehicle in a safe
and prudent manner may result in loss of
control or an accident.
Be alert and drive defensively at all times. Obey
all traffic regulations. Avoid excessive speed,
high speed cornering, or sudden steering ma-
neuvers, because these driving practices could
cause you to lose control of your vehicle.
As with any vehicle, loss of control could
result in a collision with other vehicles or
objects or cause the vehicle to roll over,
particularly if the loss of control causes the
vehicle to slide sideways.
Be attentive at all times, and avoid driving when
tired. Never drive when under the influence of
alcohol or drugs (including prescription or over-
the-counter drugs which may cause drowsi-
ness) . Always wear your seat belt as outlined in
the “Safety – Seats, seat belts and supplemental
restraint system” section of this manual, and also
instruct your passengers to do so.
Seat belts help reduce the risk of injury in colli-
sions and rollovers. In a rollover crash, an
unbelted or improperly belted person is significantly more likely to be injured or
killed than a person properly wearing a
seat belt.
OFF-ROAD RECOVERY
While driving, the right side or left side wheels
may unintentionally leave the road surface. If this
occurs, maintain control of the vehicle by follow-
ing the procedure below. Please note that this
procedure is only a general guide. The vehicle
must be driven as appropriate based on the con-
ditions of the vehicle, road and traffic.
1. Remain calm and do not overreact.
2. Do not apply the brakes.
3. Maintain a firm grip on the steering wheel with both hands and try to hold a straight
course.
4. When appropriate, slowly release the accel- erator pedal to gradually slow the vehicle.
5. If there is nothing in the way, steer the ve- hicle to follow the road while vehicle speed
is reduced. Do not attempt to drive the ve-
hicle back onto the road surface until vehicle
speed is reduced.
6. When it is safe to do so, gradually turn the steering wheel until both tires return to the road surface. When all tires are on the road
surface, steer the vehicle to stay in the ap-
propriate driving lane.
● If you decide that it is not safe to return the
vehicle to the road surface based on vehicle,
road or traffic conditions, gradually slow the
vehicle to a stop in a safe place off the road.
RAPID AIR PRESSURE LOSS
Rapid air pressure loss or a “blow-out” can occur
if the tire is punctured or is damaged due to
hitting a curb or pothole. Rapid air pressure loss
can also be caused by driving on under-inflated
tires.
Rapid air pressure loss can affect the handling
and stability of the vehicle, especially at highway
speeds.
Help prevent rapid air pressure loss by maintain-
ing the correct air pressure and visually inspect
the tires for wear and damage. For additional
information, refer to “Wheels and tires” in the
“Do-it-yourself” section of this manual. If a tire
rapidly loses air pressure or “blows-out” while
driving, maintain control of the vehicle by follow-
ing the procedure below. Please note that this
procedure is only a general guide. The vehicle
must be driven as appropriate based on the con-
ditions of the vehicle, road and traffic.
