NISSAN Voice Recognition allows hands-free
operation of the navigation system and other
systems equipped on this vehicle, such as the
phone, vehicle information and audio. NISSAN
Voice Recognition can be used in one of two
selectable modes, Standard Mode or Alternate
Command Mode.
In Standard Mode, the commands that are
available are always shown on the display and
announced by the system. To perform opera-
tions, simply follow the prompts given by the
system.
For advanced operation, change to Alternate
Command Mode. When this mode is active, an
expanded list of commands can be spoken after
pushing
switch and the voice command menu prompts
are turned off. Note that in this mode the
recognition success rate may be affected
because the number of available commands
and ways of speaking each command are
increased. Otherwise, it is recommended that
Alternate Command Mode be turned to OFF
and Standard Mode be used for the best
recognition performance.
For U.S. customers, Standard Mode is selected
by default. For Canadian customers, Alternate
Command Mode is the default mode.
Otherwise, it is recommended that Alternate Command Mode be turned to OFF and Stan-
dard Mode be used for the best recognition
performance.
INFO:
. For voice recognition system operation
related to the phone, audio or vehicle
information systems, refer to the Owner’s
Manual of your vehicle.
. When the system language is set to
“Franc¸ ais” (French) or “Espan ˜
ol” (Spanish) ,
the available commands and functions may
differ from those that are available when
using the system in English.
USING THE SYSTEM
Initialization
When the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position, NISSAN Voice Recognition is initia-
lized, which may take up to one minute. When
completed, the system is ready to accept voice
commands. If
initialization completes, the display will show the
message: “System not ready.”
BEFORE STARTING
To get the best recognition performance from
NISSAN Voice Recognition, observe the follow-
ing points:
. The interior of the vehicle should be as quiet
as possible. Close the windows to eliminate
the surrounding noises (traffic noise and
vibration sounds, etc.) , which may prevent
the system from correctly recognizing the
voice commands.
. The voice recognition system cannot be
operated when the soft top is not closed (for
Roadster models) .
. Wait until the tone sounds before speaking a
command.
. Speak in a natural conversational voice
without pausing between words.
. If the air conditioner is set to “Auto”, the fan
speed is automatically lowered so that voice
commands can be recognized more easily.
GIVING VOICE COMMANDS
The method of giving a voice command in
Standard Mode is described in this section.

.[Use Statistical Traffic Information]:
Uses statistical traffic information that is
stored in the map data.
. [Use Real Time Traffic Information]:
Uses the latest traffic information received
via the SiriusXM broadcast.
. [Use Avoid Area Settings]:
Enables the avoid area setting.
. [Use Ferries]:
Includes the use of ferries.
. [Use Learned Routes]:
Uses the roads that are most frequently
traveled with the help of self-learning
technology.
. [Auto Reroute]:
If the vehicle deviates from the suggested
route, the system automatically recalculates
a route that leads the vehicle to the
suggested route.
INFO:
. The recalculated route may not be the
shortest route because the system priori-
tizes easy-to-drive roads for safety reasons.
. If route conditions are set from [Route
Settings], all sections in the route are subject to the same route conditions even
though different route conditions are set for
different sections in [Edit/Add to Route].
. If [Use Time Restricted Roads] is deacti-
vated, the system calculates a route without
any consideration of the regulations con-
cerning the time or day of the week. There-
fore, the suggested route may include a road
subject to traffic regulations concerning the
time or day of the week. When driving along
the route, always follow all traffic regulations
regardless of whether [Use Time Restricted
Roads] is ON or OFF.
. If the system cannot calculate any alternative
routes, it displays the previous route.
. If the vehicle overly deviates from the
suggested route, the system calculates a
new route.
. Statistical traffic information is based on
previous traffic data. When the traffic situa-
tion rapidly changes due to unexpected
accidents, construction work, traffic restric-
tions, emergencies, etc., the prediction
accuracy of the system may be reduced.
. Traffic jam information displayed on the map
screen is not statistical traffic information. .
When [Use Statistical Traffic Information] is
turned on, the system may lead to a road
where a traffic jam occurs or to a detour
even though the shortest route does not
have a traffic jam.
. Even when [Use Real Time Traffic Informa-
tion] is turned on, if traffic information has
not been provided for the area, sometimes it
is possible that a detour will not be indicated
in a location where a traffic jam occurs.
. The system may not lead to a detour if traffic
closure or a traffic jam occurs far from the
present location.
. The system calculates to reduce the time
required for the entire route from the start to
destination. If there are no appropriate
routes, the system may lead to a route
where a traffic jam occurs instead of leading
to a detour.
. This system can learn and memorize the
route that is most frequently used. However,
despite driving on the same route several
times so that the system can learn the route,
the system may have difficulty learning the
route under the following conditions:
— [Use Time Restricted Roads] is turned on.

10-2General system information
ROUTE GUIDANCE
The main features of the NISSAN Navigation
System are visual guidance and voice guidance
in selected map coverage areas. Utilizing a
network of GPS (Global Positioning System)
satellites, the NISSAN Navigation System tracks
the location on the map and navigates to a
preferred location.
Once the destination is set in a map coverage
area, the NISSAN Navigation System will
calculate a route from the current location to
the destination. The real-time map display and
turn-by-turn voice guidance leads the driver
along the route. These features can be espe-
cially helpful when driving to unfamiliar locations.
The system may be unable to set a destination
and/or calculate a route when the destination is
outside the map coverage area. Additionally,
voice guidance may not be available if the
destination is outside the map coverage area.
For more information on how to set a destina-
tion, refer to section 4.
PLACES OF INTEREST (PLACES) DI-
RECTORY
The NISSAN Navigation System offers an
extensive places of interest (Places) directory
in map coverage areas. This directory includes a
wide variety of destinations ranging from gasstations, ATMs, and restaurants to casinos, ski
resorts, shopping centers and businesses. A
point of interest can be searched by category,
name or phone number. After selecting a
destination, the NISSAN Navigation System will
calculate a route to that destination.
The Places directory has many uses. For
example, the directory can be sorted by the
various types of restaurants near the current
location. If an ATM or gas station is needed, the
NISSAN Navigation System can navigate to the
closest preferred location.
For more information on how to use the Places
directory, refer to section 4.
ADDRESS BOOK
The Address Book can store up to 300 locations
from map coverage areas into a personal
directory. This is especially useful for frequently
visited locations, such as clients, relatives and
friends. The Address Book function allows easy
access to frequently visited locations when
setting them as your destination.
For more information on how to use the Address
Book, refer to section 6.
AVOID AREA
The Avoid Area function sets areas or freeways
that the NISSAN Navigation System does not
include in the suggested route when calculating
routes. For example, if a freeway or area that is
always congested with traffic.
For more information on the Avoid Area function,
refer to section 6.
NavTraffic INFORMATION
When available, the NavTraffic Information
broadcast may help to avoid delays due to
traffic incidents. Traffic jams, roadwork, closed
roads around the current location, etc. are
represented graphically on the map by icons
depicting the nature of the event. Incidents on
the route are automatically brought to the
attention when they are approached.
The NavTraffic Information feature, via the
guidance mode, may help to detour around
traffic problems. For more information on the
NavTraffic Information feature, refer to section 5.
AUTOMATIC REROUTE
When detecting a deviation from the suggested
route, the NISSAN Navigation System will
automatically recalculate a new route to the
destination.
For more information on the Automatic reroute
function, refer to section 5.

10-4General system information
Receiving signals from GPS satellites
The reception of GPS signals can be weak,
depending on the environment. Vehicles in the
following areas/environments may not receive
GPS signals (indicator color: gray) .
*Inside tunnels or parking garages
*Areas with numerous tall buildings
*Under multi-layered highways
*Under many large trees
*In a canyon
INFO:
The GPS antenna is located on the instrument
panel inside the vehicle. Do not place any
objects, especially mobile phones or transcei-
vers, on the instrument panel. Because the
strength of the GPS signal is approximately one
billionth of that of TV waves, phones and
transceivers will affect or may totally disrupt
the signal.
Display of GPS information
GPS information can be displayed.“Viewing GPS current location informa-
tion” (page 7-19)
