USING THE SYSTEM
Initialization
When the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position, NISSAN Voice Recognition is initia-
lized, which may take up to one minute. When
completed, the system is ready to accept voice
commands. If the TALK
switch is pushed
before the initialization completes the display will
show the message: “System not ready.” or a
beep sounds.
Before starting
To get the best performance from 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.
. When the air conditioner is in the “AUTO”
mode, the fan speed decreases automati-
cally for easy recognition.
. Wait until a tone sounds before speaking a
command.
