BEFORE STARTING

. The interior of the vehicle should be as
quiet as possible. Close the windows to
eliminate the surrounding noises (traf-
fic noise and vibration sounds, etc.),
which may prevent the system from
correctly recognizing the voice com-
mands.
. Wait until the tone sounds before
speaking a command.
. Speak in a natural conversational voice
without pausing between words.

How to speak numbers
INFINITI Voice Recognition requires a cer-
tain way to speak numbers when giving
voice commands. Refer to the following
examples. General rule:
Only single digits 0 (zero) to 9 can be used.
For example, to speak 500,
“five zero zero”
can be used, but “five hundred”cannot.
Examples:
1-800-662-6200
“One eight zero zero six six two six two
zero zero”
Improving Recognition of Phone numbers:
Recognition of phone numbers can be
improved by speaking the phone number
in 3 groups of numbers. For example, to
call 800-662-6200, speak “Eight Zero
Zero” first, and the system will then ask
to speak the next three digits. Then, speak
“Six Six Two”. After recognition, the
system will then ask to speak the last 4
digits. Speak, “Six Two Zero Zero”. Using
this method of phone digit entry can
improve recognition performance.INFO:
For best recognition, speak “zero”for the
number “0”and “oh” for the letter “o”.
