WARNING
●
A cellular phone should not be used for
any purpose while driving so full atten-
tion may be given to vehicle operation.
Some jurisdictions prohibit the use of
cellular phones while driving.
● If you must make a call while your ve-
hicle is in motion, the hands free cellu-
lar phone operational mode is highly
recommended. Exercise extreme cau-
tion at all times so full attention may be
given to vehicle operation.
● If you are unable to devote full attention
to vehicle operation while talking on
the phone, pull off the road to a safe
location and stop your vehicle.

●Some Bluetooth® enabled cellular phones
may not be recognized by the in-vehicle
phone module. Please visit
www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth/ and search
for a recommended phone list.
● You will not be able to use a hands-free
phone under the following conditions:
– Your vehicle is outside the service area for your cellular phone network.
– Your vehicle is in an area where it is difficult to receive radio waves, such as in
a tunnel, in an underground parking ga-
rage, behind a tall building or in a moun-
tainous area.
– Your cellular phone is locked in order to prevent dialing.
● When the radio wave condition is not ideal
or ambient sound is too loud, it may be
difficult to hear the other person’s voice dur-
ing a call. ●
This Bluetooth® system supports Wide-
band speech, which enhances the sound
quality of phone calls placed over
Bluetooth®. To take advantage of this fea-
ture, the cellular device should be used on a
carrier supporting Adaptive MultiRate Wide-
band (AMR-WB) or HD voice technology.
The performance of AMR-WB may vary by
carrier and calling area. Consult your cellular
carrier if you experience issues with call
quality or connection.
● Immediately after the ignition switch is
turned ON, it may be impossible to receive a
call for a short period of time.
● 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
disruption.
● While a cellular phone is connected through
the Bluetooth® wireless connection, the
battery of the cellular phone may discharge
quicker than usual.
● If the Bluetooth® Hands-Free Phone Sys-
tem seems to be malfunctioning, please visit
www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth/ for trouble-
shooting help. ●
Some cellular phones or other devices may
cause interference or a buzzing noise to be
emitted from the audio system speakers.
Storing the device in a different location may
reduce or eliminate the noise.
● Refer to the owner’s manual for the cellular
phone for information regarding the tele-
phone pairing procedure specific to your
phone, battery charging , and cellular phone
antenna, etc.
● The antenna display on the monitor may not
match the antenna display of some cellular
phones.
● The battery display on the monitor may not
match the battery display of some cellular
phones.
● Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as
possible to her the caller’s voice clearly as
well as to minimize echoes.
● If reception between callers is unclear, ad-
justing the incoming or outgoing call volume
may improve the clarity.
