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”.
