INFO:
To exit the Voice Recognition System, push
and hold <
>or <>on the steering
wheel.
Operating tips
. Speak a command after the tone.
. If the command is not recognized, the
system will prompt you to speak the
command again. Repeat the command in
a clear voice.
. Touch [
] on the touch screen or push
<> on the steering wheel or the
INFINITI controller to return to the
previous screen.
. To adjust the volume of the system
feedback, push <-
+>on the steering
wheel or turn while the
system is making an announcement.
. When setting a destination for route
guidance with some search methods,
such as POI, Intersection or City Center
search, the search area is automatically
set to the state/province where your
vehicle is located. Change state/pro-
vince to change the search area to
another state/province if necessary. Voice Prompt Interrupt:
In most cases, you can interrupt the voice
feedback to speak the next command by
pushing
<
>on the steering wheel. After
interrupting the system, wait for a tone
before speaking your command.
One Shot Call:
To use the system faster when making a call,
you may speak the second level command
skipping speaking the first level command.
For example, push <
>and say “Redial”
after the tone without first saying “Phone”.
For phone command operation:
. After the command “Call”, a name regis-
tered in the phonebook can be spoken
for recognition, while a phone number
can be spoken after the command “Dial”.
Names from the phonebook cannot be
spoken after the command “Dial”.
. The system has the function to read the
text messages out loud, but misreading
may occur in some cases.
. Even if nicknames such as “Mom” or
“Dad” are registered in the cellular
phone, the Voice Recognition System
recognizes only names. To have the system recognize the nicknames, register
the entries in the [Quick Dial] from the
Phone menu.
“Quick Dial” (page 4-13)
For navigation command operation:
. Depending on the area where the vehicle
is located (such as in Puerto Rico, Guam,
etc.), the system may not recognize the
general navigation commands.
. Points of Interest:
— The POI commands searches for Points of Interest registered in the
navigation system.
— When searching for POI, the search is conducted within the current state/
province or the state/province speci-
fied by “Change State” command. To
change the state/province, speak
“Change State” after the prompt
and then after the next prompt, speak
the name of the state/province for
which you wish to conduct the POI
search. The state/province will be
reset to the current state each time
the voice recognition session is re-
started.
