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, press 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.
∙ To use the system faster, you may
speak the second level commands with
the main menu command on the main
menu. For example, press the
but-
ton and af ter the tone say, “Call Redial.”
How to say numbers
NISSAN Voice Recognition requires a cer-
tain way to speak numbers in voice com-
mands. Refer to the following rules and ex-
amples.
∙ Either “zero” or “oh” can be used for “0”.
Example: 1-800-662-6200
– “One eight oh oh six six two six two
oh oh”, or
– “One eight zero zero six six two six
two oh oh”∙ Words can be used for the first 4 digits
places only.
Example: 1-800-662-6200
– “One eight hundred six six two six
two oh oh”,
– NOT “One eight hundred six six two
sixty two hundred,” and
– NOT “One eight oh oh six six two sixty
two hundred”
∙ Numbers can be spoken in small
groups. The system will prompt you to
continue entering digits, if desired.
Example: 1-800-662-6200
– “One eight zero zero”
The system repeats the numbers and
prompts you to enter more.
– “Six six two”
The system repeats the numbers and
prompts you to enter more.
– “Six two zero zero”
∙ Say “pound” for “#”. Say “star” for “*” (avail-
able when using the “Special Number”
command and the “Send” command
during a call).For additional information, refer to “List
of voice commands” and “Special
number” in this section.
Example: 1-555-1212 *123
– “One five five five one two one two
star one two three”
∙ Say “plus” for “+” (available only when us-
ing the “Special Number” command).
∙ Say “pause” for a 2-second pause (avail-
able only when storing a phonebook
number).
NOTE:
For best results, say phone numbers as
single digits.
The voice command “Help” is available at
any time. Please use the “Help” command
to get information on how to use the sys-
tem.
Voice Prompt Interrupt
In most cases you can interrupt the voice
feedback to speak the next command by
pressing the
button on the steering
wheel. Af ter interrupting the system, wait
for a beep before speaking your command.
