Your NISSAN is equipped with the
Bluetooth® Hands-Free Phone System. If
you have a compatible Bluetooth® enabled
cellular phone, you can set up the wireless
connection between your cellular phone
and the in-vehicle phone module. With
Bluetooth® wireless technology, you canmake or receive a hands-free telephone
call with your cellular phone in the vehicle.
Once your cellular phone is connected to the
in-vehicle phone module, no other phone
connecting procedure is required. Your
phone is automatically connected with the in-vehicle phone module when the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position with the
previously connected cellular phone turned
on and carried in the vehicle.
NOTE:
Some devices require the user to accept
connections to other Bluetooth® de-
vices. If your phone does not connect au-
tomatically to the system, consult the
phone’s Owner’s Manual for details on
device operation.
You can connect up to five different
Bluetooth® cellular phones to the in-
vehicle phone module. However, you can
talk on only one cellular phone at a time.
Before using the Bluetooth® Hands-Free
Phone System, refer to the following notes.
∙ Set up the wireless connection be- tween a compatible cellular phone and
the in-vehicle phone module before us-
ing the hands-free phone system.
∙ Some Bluetooth® enabled cellular phones may not be recognized or work
properly. Please visit
www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth or
www.nissan.ca/bluetooth for a recom-
mended phone list and connecting in-
structions.

USING THE SYSTEM
The NISSAN Voice Recognition system al-
lows hands-free operation of the
Bluetooth® Hands-Free Phone System.
If the vehicle is in motion, some commands
may not be available so full attention may
be given to vehicle operation.
Initialization
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, NISSAN Voice Recognition is initial-
ized, which takes a few seconds. If the
button is pressed before the initialization
completes, the system will announce
“Hands-free phone system not ready” and
will not react to voice commands.
Operating tips
To get the best performance out of the
NISSAN Voice Recognition system, observe
the following:∙ Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as possible. Close the windows to elimi-
nate surrounding noises (traffic noises,
vibration sounds, etc.), which may pre-
vent the system from recognizing voice
commands correctly. ∙ Wait until the tone sounds before
speaking a command. Otherwise, the
command will not be received properly.
∙ Start speaking a command within 5 seconds af ter the tone sounds.
∙ Speak in a natural voice without paus- ing between words.
Giving voice commands
To operate NISSAN Voice Recognition,
press and release the
button located
on the steering wheel. Af ter the tone
sounds, speak a command.
The command given is picked up by the
microphone, and voice feedback is given
when the command is accepted.
∙ If you need to hear the available com- mands for the current menu again, say
“Help” and the system will repeat them.
∙ If a command is not recognized, the system announces, “Command not
recognized. Please try again.” Make sure
the command is said exactly as
prompted by the system and repeat
the command in a clear voice. ∙ If you want to go back to the previous
command, you can say “Go back” or
“Correction” any time the system is
waiting for a response.
∙ You can cancel a command when the system is waiting for a response by say-
ing, “Cancel” or “Quit.” The system an-
nounces “Cancel” and ends the Voice
Recognition session. You can also press
and hold the
button on the steer-
ing wheel for 5 seconds at any time to
end the Voice Recognition session.
Whenever the Voice Recognition ses-
sion is canceled, a double beep is
played to indicate you have exited the
system.
∙ If you want to adjust the volume of the voice feedback, push the volume con-
trol switches (+ or -) on the steering
wheel while being provided with feed-
back. You can also use the radio volume
control knob.
∙ In most cases you can interrupt the voice feedback to speak the next com-
mand by pressing the
button on
the steering wheel.
