COMPRESSED AUDIO FILES (MP3/
WMA/AAC)
Explanation of terms
.MP3 — MP3 is short for Moving Pictures
Experts Group Audio Layer 3. MP3 is the
most well-known compressed digital audio
file format. This format allows for near “CD
quality” sound, but at a fraction of the size of
normal audio files. MP3 conversion of an
audio track can reduce the file size by
approximately a 10:1 ratio (Sampling: 44.1
kHz, Bit rate: 128 kbps) with virtually no
perceptible loss in quality. The compression
reduces certain parts of sound that seem
inaudible to most people.
. WMA — Windows Media Audio (WMA) is a
compressed audio format created by Micro-
soft as an alternative to MP3. The WMA
codec offers greater file compression than
the MP3 codec, enabling storage of more
digital audio tracks in the same amount of
space when compared to MP3s at the same
level of quality.
. Bit rate — Bit rate denotes the number of bits
per second used by a digital music file. The
size and quality of a compressed digital
audio file is determined by the bit rate used
when encoding the file. .
Sampling frequency — Sampling frequency
is the rate at which the samples of a signal
are converted from analog to digital (A/D
conversion) per second.
. Multisession — Multisession is one of the
methods for writing data to media. Writing
data once to the media is called a single
session, and writing more than once is called
a multisession.
. ID3/WMA tag — The ID3/WMA tag is the
part of the encoded MP3 or WMA file that
contains information about the digital music
file such as song title, artist, album title,
encoding bit rate, track time duration, etc.
ID3 tag information is displayed on the
Album/Artist/Track title line on the display.
. AAC — Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) is a
compressed audio format. AAC offers great-
er file compression than MP3 and enables
music file creation and storage at the same
quality as MP3.
Playback order
.The folder names of folders not containing
compressed audio files are not shown on the
display.
. The playback order is the order in which the
files were written by the writing software, so

.Do not place the cellular phone in an area
surrounded by metal or far away from the in-
vehicle phone module to prevent tone quality
degradation and wireless connection disrup-
tion.
. While a cellular phone is connected through
the Bluetooth

. Some cellular phones or other devices may
cause interference or a buzzing noise to
come from the audio system speakers.
Storing the device in a different location
may reduce or eliminate the noise.
. Refer to the cellular phone Owner’s Manual

cellular phones.
. The battery display on the monitor may not
coincide with the battery display of some cellular phones.
. Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as
possible to hear the caller’s voice clearly as
well as to minimize its echoes.
. If reception between callers is unclear,
adjusting the incoming or outgoing call
volume may improve the clarity.
. The microphone is located near the map
light.
. Reduce background noise as much as
possible by closing windows and pointing
HVAC vents away from the ceiling.

VOICE RECOGNITION
USING VOICE RECOGNITION SYS-
TEM
Initialization
When the ignition switch is in the ON or ACC
position, the voice recognition is initialized.
When the initialization is complete, the system
is ready to accept voice commands. If <
>on
the steering wheel is pushed before the initi-
alization 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, 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, 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
without pausing between words. .
The system recognizes commands given
from the driver’s seat.
GIVING VOICE COMMANDS
1. Push <>located on the steering wheel.
2. A list of commands appears on the screen,
and the system provides the voice menu
prompt.
Available category commands are displayed
on the left side of the screen. Speak or touch
a category command from the category
command list.
INFO:
.After the tone sounds and the icon on thescreen changes fromto, speak a
command. You can also select a com-
mand by directly touching the screen or
by tilting <
>/<>up or down and
pushing
.Some of the commands for each category
are shown on the right side of the screen
and they can also be spoken without
selecting a category.
.After executing the category command,only the commands related to the se-
lected category can be recognized.
“Command list” (page 7-6)
.The voice recognition system will pauseits operation when no command is given
after three prompts. To resume the
operation, push <
>on the steering
wheel.
3. Continue to follow the voice menu prompts and speak the voice commands after the
tone sounds until the preferred operation is
executed.

SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
The system does not recognize the connection
of a cellular phone. The system does not
receive or make a call. The cellular phone is not compatible with the in-
vehicle hands-free phone system.
Use a cellular phone compatible with the system. Visit
www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth/ to check compatibility.
The cellular phone is not connected. Check the registration procedure, and then register the
cellular phone again.
The phone operation is limited by the functions (such
as dial lock, etc.) of the registered cellular phone. Remove any settings that are limiting use of the cellular
phone, and then perform registration again.
The other party cannot hear your voice.
The other party can hear your voice, but it
cracks or cuts out. Mute function is enabled.
Verify mute function is disabled.
The cellular phone is not connected. Check the registration procedure, and then register the
cellular phone again.
The fan speed of the heater/air conditioner is too fast. Decrease the fan speed of the heater/air conditioner.
The ambient noise level is excessive. (For example:
heavy rain, construction sites, inside a tunnel,
oncoming vehicles, etc.) Close the windows to shut out ambient noise.
The noise generated by driving the vehicle is too
loud. Reduce the vehicle speed.
The incoming or outgoing voice level is too loud. Adjust the incoming or outgoing voice level properly.
The voice is cut out or noise is heard during a
call. The wireless Bluetooth
Šconnection may be dis-
rupted depending on the location of the cellular
phone. Do not place the cellular phone in an area surrounded by
metal or far away from the in-vehicle hands-free phone
system. Do not place a cellular phone close to the seats or
your body.
When a cellular phone is operated to make a
call, the hands-free function becomes unavail-
able. Some models of a cellular phone do not switch to the
hands-free mode when they are operated to make a
call. This is not a malfunction. Make a call again using the
hands-free function.
The other party’s voice cannot be heard. There
is no ring tone. The volume level is set to the minimum.
Adjust the volume level.
A cellular phone is not connected. Check the registration procedure, and then register the
cellular phone again.

VOICE RECOGNITION
SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
The system does not operate or fails to interpret the
command correctly. The interior of the vehicle is too noisy.
Close the windows or have the other occupants be
quiet.
The fan speed of the heater/air conditioner is too fast. Decrease the fan speed of the heater/air conditioner.
The noise generated by driving the vehicle is too
loud. Reduce the vehicle speed.
The voice command is spoken in a low voice. Speak the command in a louder voice.
The timing of speaking a command is too early. Speak the command after confirming the following: a voice guidance is announced, a tone sounds, and an
icon on the screen changes from gray to orange.
The command is spoken too slowly. Speak in a natural voice without pausing between
words.
The system prompts to repeat a command. Pronunciation is unclear. Speak clearly.
The command is spoken too late after the tone. Speak the command within 5 seconds after con- firming the following: a voice guidance is announced,
a tone sounds, and an icon on the screen changes
from gray to orange.
An improper command is spoken. Speak the command or a number that is displayed on
the screen.
Speak a command that is shown in the command list.
The system does not correctly recognize a number
spoken. Too many numbers are spoken at once.
Place a pause between the appropriate digits for
correct recognition by the system. When speaking a
telephone number, place a pause between area
codes, dial codes, etc.
