When the selector/shift lever is shifted into
the “ R ” (Reverse) position, the monitor
display shows view to the rear of the
vehicle.
The system is designed as an aid to the
driver in detecting large stationary objects
to help avoid damaging the vehicle. The
system will not detect small objects below
the bumper and may not detect objects
close to the bumper or on the ground.
WARNING . The rearview monitor is a convenience
but it is not a substitute for proper
vehicle operation because it has areas
where objects cannot be viewed. Always
look out the windows and check mirrors
to be sure that it is safe to move before
operating the vehicle. Always operate
the vehicle slowly.
. Objects viewed in the RearView Monitor
differ from actual distance because a
wide-angle lens is used. Objects in the
RearView Monitor will appear visually
opposite like ones viewed in the inside
and outside mirrors.
. Make sure that the trunk is securely
closed when backing up.

[ Edit: 2012/ 1/ 17 Model: V36-D ]. On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between the
predicted course line and the actual
course line.
. If the battery is disconnected or be-
comes discharged, the predicted course
lines may not be displayed correctly. If
this occurs, drive the vehicle on a
straight road for more than 5 minutes.
. The displayed lines will appear slightly
off to the right because the rearview
camera is not installed in the rear center
of the vehicle.
. The distance guide line and the vehicle
width guide line should be used as a
reference only when the vehicle is on a
level paved surface. The distance viewed
on the monitor is for reference only and
may be different than the actual distance
between the vehicle and displayed ob-
jects.
. When backing up the vehicle up a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are further
than they appear. When backing up the
vehicle down a hill, objects viewed in the
monitor are closer than they appear. Use
the inside mirror or glance over your
shoulder to properly judge distances to other objects.
The vehicle width and predicted course
lines are wider than the actual width and
course.

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 vehicle operation.
. If you find yourself unable to devote full
attention to vehicle operation while
talking on the phone, pull off the road
to a safe location and stop your vehicle
before doing so.
CAUTIONTo 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 module. 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 con-
necting procedure is required. Your phone
is automatically connected with the in-
vehicle phone module 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 Blue-
tooth ®
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 number using your voice is
possible.
Before using the Bluetooth ®
Hands-Free
Phone System, refer to the following notes.
. Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) and the Bluetooth ®
functions share the same frequency
band (2.4 GHz). Using the Bluetooth ®and the wireless LAN functions at the
same time may slow down or discon-
nect the communication and cause
undesired noise. It is recommended
that you turn off the wireless LAN (Wi-
Fi) when using the Bluetooth ®
func-
tions.
. Set up the wireless connection between
a cellular phone and the in-vehicle
phone module before using the Blue-
tooth ®
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 tele-
phone 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 garage, behind a tall build-
ing or in a mountainous 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.Bluetooth ®

system announces, “ Please say again ” .
Repeat the command in a clear voice.
. Push the
switch or the BACK button
once to return to the previous screen.
. If you want to cancel the command,
push the
switch. The message
“ Voice input is canceled ” will be
announced. If you want to adjust the
volume of the system feedback, push
the volume control buttons [+] or [ − ] on
the steering wheel or use the audio system volume knob while the system
is making an announcement.
How to speak commands: GUID-D73A39BF-43C8-459F-9C24-47B7F579C407
The Voice Recognition System requires a
certain way to speak voice commands.
Speak normally and clearly in the direction
of the microphone (located in front of the
rearview mirror). Every digit of the number
must be spoken individually and in a
normal manner. The hands-free mode will
work best when the telephone number is
spoken in blocks of three to five digits.
After each spoken block is terminated, the
system will repeat the three to five digits
and wait for you to speak the next digit or
block of digits required for the telephone
number.
See “ List of voice commands ” (P.4-106) for
the appropriate commands that can be
spoken for the hands-free mode system.
Example:
In order to initiate a call, speak “ Phone-
book ” .
INFO
. If you are controlling the telephone
system by voice command for the first
time or do not know the appropriate
voice command, speak “ Help ” . The system announces the available com-
mands.
. When you speak numbers, you can
speak both “ zero ” or “ oh ” for “ 0 ” .
Personal vocabulary (voicetags): GUID-D73A39BF-43C8-459F-9C24-47B7F579C407
Voice Recognition System is equipped with
the function called “ voicetags ” , which can
be associated with the phone number and
name in the phonebook. Using the voice
tag will automatically generate a speed
dial to the registered number.
See “ Phonebook registration ” (P.4-108).
You can call the identified number using
the following command: “ Dial ” followed by
the voice tag.
Dialling a name with a voice tag: GUID-D73A39BF-43C8-459F-9C24-47B7F579C407
It is possible to call up a name via a voice
tag instead of a number, provided the
name and number of your correspondent
has been previously stored in the phone-
book.
Dial via a voice tag, according to the
following procedure.
1. Push the
switch.
2. The system replies “ please say a
command after the beep. Available
commands are: Call, Phonebook, Re-
