dialing of that entry.
The phonebook stores up to 1000 names for
each phone paired with the system. Each name
can have up to 4 locations/phone numbers
associated with it.
When a phone is connected to the system, the
phonebook is automatically downloaded to the
vehicle. This feature allows you to access your
phonebook from the Bluetooth
Šsystem and call
contacts by name. You can record a custom
voice tag for contact names that the system has
difficulty recognizing. For more information see

Each phone has its own separate phone-
book. You cannot access Phone A ’s phone-
book if you are currently connected with Phone B.

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
to, speak a
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.

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)”.
