How to speak numbers: GUID-D73A39BF-43C8-459F-9C24-47B7F579C407
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, if you would like to say 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
You can improve the recognition of phone
numbers by saying the phone number in
three groups of numbers. For example,
when you try to call 800-662-6200, say
“ eight zero zero ” first, and the system will
then ask you for the next three digits. Then,
say “ six six two ” . After recognition, the
system will then ask for the last four digits.
Say, “ six two zero zero ” . Using this method
