Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-67

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 whenthe ignition switch is placed in the ACC or
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-
tomatic ally to the system, consult the
phone's owner's manual for details on
device operation.
You can connect up to six 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 between
a compatible cellular phone and the in-
vehicle phone module before using 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.

• You will not be able to use a hands-freephone under the following conditions:– Your vehicle is outside of the cellular service area.
– Your vehicle is in an area where it is difficult to receive a cellular signal; such
as in a tunnel, in an underground park-
ing garage, near a tall building or in a
mountainous area.
– Your cellular phone is locked to prevent it from being dialed.
• When the radio wave condition is not ideal or ambient sound is too loud, it may
be difficult to hear the other person's
voice during a call.
• Do not place the cellular phone in an area surrounded by metal or far away from
the in-vehicle phone module to prevent
tone quality degradation and wireless
connection disruption.
• While a cellular phone is connected through the Bluetooth® wireless connec-
tion, the battery power of the cellular
phone may discharge quicker than usual.
The Bluetooth® Hands-Free Phone Sys-
tem cannot charge cellular phones. • Some cellular phones or other devices
may cause interference or a buzzing
noise to come from the audio system
speakers. Storing the device in a different
location may reduce or eliminate the
noise.
• For additional information, refer to the cellular phone owner's manual regarding
the telephone charges, cellular phone
antenna and body, etc.

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
“There is no phone connected” 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 aspossible. Keep all vents pointed away
from the microphone and close the win-
dows to eliminate surrounding noises
(traffic noises, vibration sounds, etc.),
which may prevent the system from rec-
ognizing voice commands correctly.
• Wait until the tone sounds before speak- ing a command. Otherwise, the com-
mand will not be received properly.
• Start speaking a command within 5 sec- onds af ter the tone sounds.
• Speak in a natural voice without pausing between words. • For calling contacts by name, please say
both the first and last name of the con-
tact for better recognition.
Giving voice commands
To operate NISSAN Voice Recognition,
press thebutton located on the steer-
ing wheel for less than 1.5 seconds. 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 a command is not recognized, the sys- tem announces, “Please say or select a
command from the displayed list.” 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 “Cor-
rection” 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 “Exit” and ends the Voice Recog-
nition session. You can also press and
hold the
button on the steering
wheel for 1.5 seconds at any time to end
the Voice Recognition session. Whenever
the Voice Recognition session is can-
celed, 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 (+ or -) volume
control switches on the steering wheel
while being provided with feedback. You
can also use the radio volume control
knob.
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.
