number of phones connected. Up to 5
phones can be connected. If the user tries to
connect a sixth phone, the system an-
nounces that the user must first delete one
phone or replace an existing phone. If the
user tries to connect a phone that has already been connected to the vehicle sys-
tem, the system announces the name that
the phone is already using. The connecting
procedure will then be cancelled.

phone of lesser priority when two or more
phones connected with Bluetooth Hands-

NOTE:
When the user deletes a phone, the associated
phone book for that phone will also be deleted.
●Replace Phone
Use the Replace Phone command to change
the priority level of the active phone.
The priority level determines which phone is
active when more than one paired
Bluetooth phone is in the vehicle.
The system states the priority level of the
active phone and asks for a new priority
level (1, 2, 3, 4, 5).
If the new priority level is already being used
for another phone, the two phones will swap
priority levels.
For example, if the current priority levels are: Priority Level 1 = Phone A
Priority Level 2 = Phone B
Priority Level 3 = Phone C
and you change the priority level of Phone C to
Level 1, then: Priority Level 1 = Phone C
Priority Level 2 = Phone B
Priority Level 3 = Phone A
● Bluetooth On/Off
Use the Bluetooth On/Off command to turn
on/off Bluetooth Hands-Free Phone System.
●Help
The system announces the available com-
mands.
VOICE ADAPTATION MODE
The Voice Adaptation mode allows up to two
users with different dialects to train the system
to improve recognition accuracy. By repeating a
number of commands, the users can create a
voice model of their own voice that is stored in
the system. The system is capable of storing a
different voice adaptation model for each con-
nected phone.

the voice adaptation mode screen. 6. Voice memory A or memory B is selected
automatically. If both memory locations
are already in use, the system will prompt
you to overwrite one. Follow the instruc-
tions provided by the system.
7. When preparation is complete and you are ready to begin, press the
button.
8. The voice adaptation mode will be ex- plained. Follow the instructions provided
by the system.
9. When training is finished, the system will tell you an adequate number of phrases
have been recorded.

INFINITI Voice Recognition allows hands-free
operation of the Phone, Navigation, Information
and Audio systems in one of two modes, Stan-
dard Mode or Alternate Command Mode.
In Standard Mode, commands that are available
are always shown on the display and an-
nounced by the system. You can complete your
desired operation by simply following the
prompts given by the system. (See “INFINITI
VOICE RECOGNITION STANDARD MODE” later in
this section for details.)
For advanced operation, you can use the Alter-
nate Command Mode. (See “INFINITI VOICE REC-
OGNITION ALTERNATE COMMAND MODE” later
in this section for details.) When this mode is
active, an expanded list of commands can be
spoken after pushing the TALK
switch,
and the voice command menu prompts are
turned off. Review the expanded command list,
which is available when this mode is active.
Note that in this mode the recognition success
rate may be affected as the number of available
commands and the ways of speaking each
command are increased.
To switch one mode to another, see each mode
description later in this section. To improve the recognition success rate when
Alternate Command Mode is active, try using
the Speaker Adaptation Function available in
that mode. Otherwise, it is recommended that
Alternate Command Mode be turned off and
Standard Mode be used for the best recognition
performance.
For the voice commands for the navigation
system, refer to the Navigation System Owner’s
Manual of your vehicle.
The voice recognition system cannot be oper-
ated when the retractable hard top is not
closed.

Before starting
To get the best recognition performance from
INFINITI Voice Recognition, observe the follow-
ing:
●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.
● Wait until the tone sounds before speaking a
command.
● Speak in a natural conversational voice with-
out pausing between words.
● If the air conditioner is set to “Auto”, the fan
speed is automatically lowered so that your
commands can be recognized more easily.
Giving voice commands
1. Push the TALKswitch located on the
steering wheel. 2. A list of commands appears on the
screen, and the system announces,
“Would you like to access Phone, Naviga-
tion, Information, Audio or Help?”.
3. After the tone sounds and the icon on the screen changes from

speak a command.
Selecting the “Practice” key will start the
practice mode. See “Let’s Practice” earlier in
this section.
4. Continue to follow the voice menu prompts and speak after the tone sounds
until your desired operation is completed.
Selecting the “Help ” key can display the
detailed information of the each command.
