TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
The system should respond correctly to all voice commands without difficulty. If problems are encountered, try the following solutions.
Where the solutions are listed by number, try each solution in turn, starting with number 1, until the problem is resolved.
SymptomSolution
System fails to interpret the com-
mand correctly. 1. Ensure that the command is valid. (See “INFINITI VOICE RECOGNITION SYSTEM (models with navigation system)”
later in this section; page 4-109.)
2. Ensure that the command is spoken after the tone.
3. Speak clearly without pausing between words and at a level appropriate to the ambient noise level in the
vehicle.
4. Ensure that the ambient noise level is not excessive (for example, windows open or defroster on). NOTE: If it is
too noisy to use the phone, it is likely that the voice commands will not be recognized.
5. If more than one command was said at a time, try saying the commands separately.
The system consistently selects the
wrong voicetag. 1. Ensure that the voicetag requested matches what was originally stored. (See “VEHICLE PHONEBOOK” earlier in
this section.)
2. Replace one of the names being confused with a new name.

WARNING
●Use a phone after stopping your vehicle in a
safe location. If you have to use a phone
while driving, exercise extreme caution at all
times so full attention may be given to ve-
hicle operation.
● If you find yourself unable to devote full at-
tention to vehicle operation while talking on
the phone, pull off the road to a safe location
and stop your vehicle before doing so.
CAUTION
To avoid draining the vehicle battery, use a
phone after starting the engine.
Your vehicle is equipped with Bluetooth
Hands-Free Phone System. If you are an owner
of a Bluetooth enabled cellular phone, you can
set up the wireless connection between your
cellular phone and the in-vehicle phone mod-
ule. With Bluetooth wireless technology, you
can make or receive a telephone call with your
cellular phone in your pocket.
Once your cellular phone is paired to the in-
vehicle phone module, no phone connecting
procedure is required. Your phone is automati-
cally connected with the in-vehicle phone mod- ule when the ignition switch is pushed to the
“ON” position with the registered cellular
phone turned on and carried in the vehicle.
You can register up to 5 different Bluetooth
cellular phones in the in-vehicle phone module.
However, you can talk on only one cellular
phone at a time.
When a call is active, the audio system and
microphone (located in the ceiling in front of the
rearview mirror) are used for the handsfree
communications.
If the audio system is being used at the time,
the audio mode will mute and will stay muted
until the active call is ended.
The INFINITI Voice Recognition system supports
the phone commands, so dialing a phone num-
ber using your voice is possible.
Before using the Bluetooth
Hands-Free Phone
System, refer to the following notes.
● Set up the wireless connection between a
cellular phone and the in-vehicle phone
module before using the Bluetooth Hands-
Free Phone System.
● Some Bluetooth enabled cellular phones
may not be recognized by the in-vehicle
phone module. ●
You will not be able to use a hands-free
phone under the following conditions:
– Your vehicle is outside of the telephone service area.
– Your vehicle is in an area where it is difficult to receive radio waves; such as in
a tunnel, in an underground parking ga-
rage, behind a tall building or in a moun-
tainous area.
– Your cellular phone is locked in order not to be 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.
● Immediately after the ignition switch is
pushed to the “ON” position, it may be
impossible to receive a call for a short period
of time.
● 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 connection, the bat-
tery power of the cellular phone may dis-
charge quicker than usual.

The voice adaptation mode will stop if:
●The
button is pressed in voice adap-
tation mode.
● The vehicle is driven during voice adaptation
mode.
● The ignition switch is turned to the OFF or
LOCK position. 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.
INFINITI VOICE RECOGNITION
STANDARD MODE
The following section is applicable when the
Standard Mode is activated.
The Standard Mode enables you to complete
the desired operation by simply following the
prompts that appear on the display and also are
announced by the system.

Adapting the System to Your Voice
Tutorial adapting the system to your voice.USING THE SYSTEM
Initialization
When the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position, INFINITI Voice Recognition is initial-
ized, which takes a few seconds. When com-
pleted, the system is ready to accept voice
commands. If the TALK
switch is pushed
before the initialization completes the display
will show the message: “Phonetic data down-
loaded. Please wait.” or a beep sounds.
Before starting
To get the best performance from INFINITI Voice
Recognition, observe the following.
● Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as
possible. Close the windows to eliminate the
surrounding noises (traffic noises, vibration
sounds, etc.), which may prevent the system
from recognizing the voice commands cor-
rectly.
● When the air conditioner is in the AUTO
mode, the fan speed decreases automati-
cally for easy recognition.
