How to say numbers
NISSAN Voice Recognition requires a
certain way to speak numbers in voice
commands. Refer to the following exam-
ples.
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
dialing results, say phone numbers as
single digits. Also, full numbers can only
be spoken for “800”. For example, you
cannot say 555-6000 as “five five five six
thousand”.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
The system should respond correctly to
all voice commands without difficulty. If
problems are encountered, follow the
solutions given in this guide for the
appropriate error. Where the solutions
are listed by number, try each solution in
turn, starting with number one, until the
problem is resolved.

Symptom/error messageSolution
The system responds “Com-
mand Not Recognized” or the
system fails to recognize the
command correctly. 1. Ensure that the command format is valid. Use the “List Commands” or “What Can I Say?” command under the
“Help” menu.
2. Speak clearly without pausing between words and at a level appropriate to the ambient noise level.
3. Ensure that the ambient noise level is not excessive (for example, with the windows open or the defroster on).
NOTE:
If it is too noisy to use the phone, it is likely that voice commands will not be recognized.
4. If optional words of the command have been omitted, then the command should be tried with these in place.

MEMO

5-4Starting and driving
WARNING
.Do not leave children or adults
who would normally require the
support of others alone in your
vehicle. Pets should not be left
alone either. They could acciden-
tally injure themselves or others
through inadvertent operation of
the vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny
days, temperatures in a closed
vehicle could quickly become
high enough to cause severe or
possibly fatal injuries to people or
animals.
. Properly secure all cargo with
ropes or straps to help prevent it
from sliding or shifting. Do not
place cargo higher than the seat-
backs. In a sudden stop or colli-
sion, unsecured cargo could
cause personal injury.
EXHAUST GAS (carbon monoxide)
WARNING
.Do not breathe exhaust gas; it
contains colorless and odorless
carbon monoxide. Carbon mon- oxide is dangerous. It can cause
unconsciousness or death.
. If you suspect that exhaust fumes
are entering the vehicle, drive
with all windows fully open, and
have the vehicle inspected imme-
diately.
. Do not run the engine in closed
spaces such as a garage.
. Do not park the vehicle with the
engine running for an extended
period of time.
. Keep the liftgate closed while
driving, otherwise exhaust gas
could be drawn into the passen-
ger compartment. If you must
drive with the liftgate open, fol-
low these precautions:
— Open all the windows.
— Turn the air recirculation
mode off and set the fan
speed control to the highest
level to circulate the air.
. If a special body or other equip-
ment is added for recreational or
other usage, follow the manufac-
turer’s recommendation to pre-
vent carbon monoxide entry into
the vehicle. (Some recreational
vehicle appliances such as stoves, refrigerators, heaters, etc. may
also generate carbon monoxide.)
. The exhaust system and body
should be inspected by a quali-
fied mechanic whenever:
— Your vehicle is raised while
being serviced.
— You suspect that exhaust fumes are entering into the
passenger compartment.
— You notice a change in the sound of the exhaust system.
— You have had an accident involving damage to the ex-
haust system, underbody, or
rear of the vehicle.
THREE-WAY CATALYST
The three-way catalyst is an emission
control device installed in the exhaust
system. Exhaust gases in the three-way
catalyst are burned at high temperatures
to help reduce pollutants.
WARNING
. The exhaust gas and the exhaust
system are very hot. Keep people,
animals and flammable materials

reduce explosion hazard.
6. Connect jumper cables in the se- quence as illustrated (
???).
CAUTION
.Always connect positive (+) to
positive (+) and negative (−) to
