Operating tips
To get the best performance out of NISSAN
Voice Recognition, observe the following:∙ Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as possible. Close the windows to elimi-
nate the surrounding noises (traffic
noises, vibration sounds, etc.), which
may prevent the system from recogniz-
ing the voice commands correctly.
∙ Wait until a tone sounds before speak- ing a command. Otherwise, the com-
mand will not be received properly.
∙ Start speaking a command within 3.5 seconds af ter the tone sounds.
∙ Speak in a natural voice without paus- ing between words.
SYSTEM FEATURES
NISSAN Voice Recognition can activate the
following systems:
∙ Bluetooth® Hands-Free Phone System
∙ Navigation

separate NissanConnect® Owner’s Manual.
How to say numbers
NISSAN Voice Recognition requires a cer-
tain way to speak numbers in voice com-
mands. Refer to the following examples.
General rule: Either “zero” or “oh” can be
used for “0”.
Phone numbers
Speak phone numbers according to the
following example. For 1-800-662-6200, say
dial number and then speak the phone
number in any of the following formats: ∙ “one eight oh oh six six two six two oh oh”
∙ “one eight hundred six six two six two oh oh”
∙ “one eight zero zero six six two six two oh oh”
For the best voice recognition phone dial-
ing results, say phone numbers as single
digits. Also, full numbers can only be spo-
ken for “800”. For example, you cannot say
555-6000 as “five five five six thousand”.

Do not operate the starter for more
than 15 seconds at a time. If the engine
does not start, turn the key off and wait
10 seconds before cranking again, oth-
erwise the starter could be damaged.4. Allow the engine to idle for at least 30 seconds af ter starting. Do not race
the engine while warming it up. Drive at
a moderate speed for a short distance
first, especially in cold weather.
NOTE:
Care should be taken to avoid situations
that can lead to potential battery dis-
charge and potential no-start conditions
such as: 1. Installation or extended use of elec-
tronic accessories that consume bat-
tery power when the engine is not
running (phone chargers, GPS, DVD
players, etc.).
2. The vehicle is not driven regularly
and/or only driven short distances.
In these cases, the battery may need to
be charged to maintain battery health.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (A/T)
(if so equipped)
WARNING
∙ Do not depress the accelerator pedal while shif ting from P (Park) or N (Neu-
tral) to R (Reverse), D (Drive), 3, 2 or 1.
Always depress the brake pedal until
shif ting is completed. Failure to do so
could cause you to lose control and
have an accident.
∙ Cold engine idle speed is high, so use caution when shif ting into a forward
or reverse gear before the engine has
warmed up.
∙ Never shif t to either the P (Park) or R (Reverse) position while the vehicle is
moving forward and P (Park) or D
(Drive) position while the vehicle is re-
versing. This could cause an accident
or damage the transmission.
∙ Except in an emergency, do not shif t to the N (Neutral) position while driv-
ing. Coasting with the transmission in
the N (Neutral) position may cause se-
rious damage to the transmission. ∙ Do not downshif t abruptly on slippery
roads. This may cause a loss of
control.CAUTION
∙ Except in an emergency, do not shif tto the N (Neutral) position while driv-
ing. Coasting with the transmission in
the N (Neutral) position may cause se-
rious damage to the transmission.
∙ To avoid possible damage to your ve- hicle, when stopping the vehicle on an
uphill grade, do not hold the vehicle by
depressing the accelerator pedal. The
foot brake should be used for this
purpose.
The A/T in your vehicle is electronically con-
trolled to produce maximum power and
smooth operation.
The recommended operating procedures
for this transmission are shown on the fol-
lowing pages. Follow these procedures for
maximum vehicle performance and driv-
ing enjoyment.
DRIVING THE VEHICLE
5-14Starting and driving

∙ Keep the battery surface clean and dry.Any corrosion should be washed off
with a solution of baking soda and wa-
ter.
∙ Make certain the terminal connections are clean and securely tightened.
∙ If the vehicle is not to be used for 30 days or longer, disconnect the nega-
tive (-) battery terminal cable to prevent
discharge.
NOTE:
Care should be taken to avoid situations
that can lead to potential battery dis-
charge and potential no-start conditions
such as: 1. Installation or extended use of elec-
tronic accessories that consume bat-
tery power when the engine is not
running (Phone chargers, GPS, DVD
players, etc.)
2. Vehicle is not driven regularly and/or
only driven short distances.
In these cases, the battery may need to
be charged to maintain battery health.WARNING
∙ Do not operate the vehicle if the fluid in the battery is low. Low battery fluid
can cause a higher load on the battery
which can generate heat, reduce bat-
tery life, and in some cases lead to an
explosion.
∙ When working on or near a battery, always wear suitable eye protection
and remove all jewelry.
∙ Do not tip the battery. Keep the vent caps tight and the battery level.
∙ Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead and lead
compounds. Wash hands af ter
handling.
∙ Keep battery out of the reach of children. ∙ Do not expose the battery to flames,
an electrical spark or a cigarette. Hy-
drogen gas generated by the battery
is explosive. Explosive gases can
cause blindness or injury. Do not allow
battery fluid to contact your skin,
eyes, fabrics or painted surfaces. Sul-
furic acid can cause blindness or in-
jury. Af ter touching a battery or bat-
tery cap, do not touch or rub your
eyes. Thoroughly wash your hands. If
the acid contacts your eyes, skin or
clothing, immediately flush with wa-
ter for at least 15 minutes and seek
medical attention.
