NISSAN Voice Recognition allows hands-free
operation of the Phone, Navigation, Information
and Audio systems in one of two modes,
Standard Mode or Alternate Command Mode.
In Standard Mode, commands that are available
are always shown on the display and announced
by the system. You can complete your desired
operation by simply following the prompts given
by the system. (See “NISSAN Voice Recogni-
tion standard mode” (P.4-155) for details.)
For advanced operation, you can use the
Alternate Command Mode. (See “NISSAN
Voice Recognition alternate command mode”
(P.4-166) for details.) When this mode is active,
an expanded list of commands can be spoken
after pushing the TALK
switch, and the
voice command menu prompts are turned off.
Review the expanded command list, which is
available when this mode is active. Note that in
this mode the recognition success rate may be
affected as the number of available commands
and the ways of speaking each command are
increased.
To switch one mode to another, see each mode
description later in this section.
To improve the recognition success rate when
Alternate Command Mode is active, try using the
Speaker Adaptation Function available in that
mode. Otherwise, it is recommended that
NISSAN VOICE RECOGNITION
SYSTEM (models with navigation
system)

Alternate Command Mode be turned off and
Standard Mode be used for the best recognition
performance.
For the voice commands for the navigation
system, refer to the Navigation System Owner’s
Manual of your vehicle.

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 recognition performance from
NISSAN Voice Recognition, observe the follow-
ing:
. The interior of the vehicle should be as quiet
as possible. Close the windows to eliminate
the surrounding noises (traffic noise and
vibration 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.
. If the air conditioner is set to “Auto”, the fan
speed is automatically lowered so that your
commands can be recognized more easily.

Giving voice commands
1. Push the TALKswitch located on the
steering wheel.
2. A list of commands appears on the screen, and you will hear a prompt.
3. After the tone sounds and the icon on the screen changes from

command.
Selecting the “Practice” key will start the
practice mode. See “Let’s Practice” (P.4-
157) .
4. Continue to follow the voice menu prompts and speak after the tone sounds until your
desired operation is completed. Selecting the “Help” key can display the
detailed information of the each command.
Operating tips:
. Say a command after the tone.
. Commands that are available are always
shown on the display and spoken through
voice menu prompts. Commands other than
those that are displayed are not accepted.
Please follow the prompts given by the
system.
. If the command is not recognized, the
system announces, “Please say again”.
Repeat the command in a clear voice.
. Push the BACK button once to return to the
previous screen.

and hold the TALK
switch. The mes-
sage, “Voice canceled” will be announced.
Voice Prompt Interrupt:
To skip the voice guidance function and give the
command immediately, press the TALK
switch to interrupt the system. Remember to
speak after the tone.
How to speak numbers:
NISSAN Voice Recognition requires a certain
way to speak numbers when giving voice
commands. Refer to the following examples. General rule
Only single digits 0 (zero) to 9 can be used. (For
example, if you would like to say 500, “five zero
zero” can be used, but “five hundred” cannot.)
Examples
.
1-800-662-6200
— “One eight zero zero six six two six two
zero zero”
Improving Recognition of Phone numbers
You can improve the recognition of phone
numbers by saying the phone number in three
groups of numbers. For example, when you try to
call 800-662-6200, say “eight zero zero” first,
and the system will then ask you for the next
three digits. Then, say “six six two”. After
recognition, the system will then ask for the last
four digits. Say, “six two zero zero”. Using this
method of phone digit entry can improve
recognition performance.
When speaking a house number, speak the
number “0” as “zero”. If the letter “o (Oh)” is
included in the house number, it will not be
recognized as the number “0 (zero)” even if you
speak “oh” instead of “zero”. Please speak
“zero” for the number “0 (zero)”, “oh” for
the letter “o (oh)”.
