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 ªINFINITI VOICE RECOGNITION SYSTEM (models with navigation system)º
later in this section; page 4-98.)
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 ªPHONEBOOK REGISTRATIONº ear-
lier in this section.)

GIVING VOICE COMMANDS
To operate INFINITI Voice Recognition, push and
release the
button located on the steer-
ing wheel. After the tone sounds, speak a
command.
The command given is picked up by the micro-
phone, and voice feedback is given when the
command is accepted.
c If you need to hear the available commands
for the current menu again, say ªHelpº and
the system will repeat them.
c If a command is not recognized, the system
announces, ªCommand not recognized.
Please try again.º Repeat the command in a
clear voice.
c If you want to go back to the previous
command, you can say ªGo backº or ªCor-
rectionº anytime the system is waiting for a
response.
c You can cancel a command when the system
is waiting for a response by saying, ªCancelº
or ªQuit.º The system announces ªCancelº
and ends the Voice Recognition (VR) session.
You can also push the
button on the
steering wheel at any time. Whenever the VR
session is canceled, a double beep is played
to indicate you have exited the system. c
If you want to adjust the volume of the voice
feedback, push the volume control switches
(+ or 2) on the steering wheel while being
provided with feedback. You can also use
the radio volume control knob.
NOTE:
The voice command ªHelpº is available at any
time. Please say ªHelpº to obtain the informa-
tion about how to use the INFINITI Voice Recog-
nition system.
How to say numbers
INFINITI Voice Recognition requires a certain
way to speak numbers in voice commands.
Refer to the rules and examples below.
c Either ªzeroº or ªohº can be used for ª0º.
Example: 1-800-662-6200
ЪOne eight oh oh six six two six two oh
ohº, or
ЪOne eight zero zero six six two six two oh ohº
c Words can be used for the first 4 digits
places only.
Example: 1-800-662-6200
ЪOne eight hundred six six two six two oh
ohº, ÐNOT ªOne eight hundred six six two sixty
two hundred, and
ÐNOT ªOne eight oh oh six six two sixty two hundred.
c Numbers can be spoken in small groups. The
system will prompt you to continuing enter-
ing digits, if desired.
Example: 1-800-662-6200
ЪOne eight zero zeroº
The system repeats the numbers and
prompts you to enter more.
Ъsix six twoº
The system repeats the numbers and
prompts you to enter more.
Ъsix two zero zeroº
c You can say ªStarº for * and ªPoundº for # at
in any position of the phone number. (They
are available only when using the ªCall
Internationalº command.)
Example: 1-555-1212 *123
ЪOne five five five one two one two star
one two threeº
NOTE:
For best results, say phone numbers as single
digits.

LIST OF VOICE COMMANDS
When you push and release thebutton
on the steering wheel, you can choose from the
commands on the Main Menu. The following
pages describe these commands and the com-
mands in each sub-menu.
Remember to wait for the tone before speaking.
You can say ªHelpº to hear the list of commands
currently available anytime the system is wait-
ing for a response.
If you want to end an action without completing
it, you can say ªCancelº or ªQuitº at any time
while the system is waiting for a response. The
system will end the VR session. Whenever the VR session is canceled, a double beep is played
to indicate you have exited the system.
If you want to go back to the previous com-
mand, you can say ªGo backº or ªCorrectionº
anytime the system is waiting for a response.
When you get used to the menus in the system,
you can talk ahead by saying more than one
command at a time. For example, say, ªCall five
five five one two one twoº or ªMemo pad
record.º
Also, when you get used to the system re-
sponses, you can skip ahead to the tone by
pressing the
button on the steering
wheel. However, if you press the
button
when the system is waiting for a response from
you it will end the VR session.CALL
(speak name)
If you have stored entries in the Phonebook,
you can dial a number associated with a name
and location.
See ªPHONEBOOKº later in this section to learn
how to store entries.
When prompted by the system, say the name of
the phonebook entry you wish to call. The
system acknowledges the name.
If there are multiple locations associated with
the name, the system asks you to choose the
location.

cKeep your engine tuned up. Malfunctions in
the ignition, fuel injection, or electrical sys-
tems can cause overrich fuel flow into the
three-way catalyst, causing it to overheat.
Do not keep driving if the engine misfires, or
if noticeable loss of performance or other
unusual operating conditions are detected.
Have the vehicle inspected promptly by an
INFINITI retailer.
c Avoid driving with an extremely low fuel
level. Running out of fuel could cause the
engine to misfire, damaging the three-way
catalyst.
c Do not race the engine while warming it up.
c Do not push or tow your vehicle to start the
engine.TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM
(TPMS)
Each tire, including the spare (if provided),
should be checked monthly when cold and
inflated to the inflation pressure recommended
by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle
placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your
vehicle has tires of a different size than the size
indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation
pressure label, you should determine the
proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has
been equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pres-
sure telltale when one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when
the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you
should stop and check your tires as soon as
possible, and inflate them to the proper pres-
sure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated
tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to
tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel
efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the
vehicle's handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for
proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver's
responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level
to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire
pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a
TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when
the system is not operating properly. The TPMS
malfunction indicator is combined with the low
tire pressure telltale. When the system detects
a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approxi-
mately one minute and then remain continu-
ously illuminated. This sequence will continue
upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as
the malfunction exists. When the malfunction
indicator is illuminated, the system may not be
able to detect or signal low tire pressure as
intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a
variety of reasons, including the installation of
replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the
vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning
properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction
telltale after replacing one or more tires or
wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the
replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow
the TPMS to continue to function properly.

cReplacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the proper
operation of the TPMS.
c Do not inject any tire liquid or aerosol tire
sealant into the tires, as this may cause a
malfunction of the tire pressure sensors.
CAUTION
cThe TPMS may not function properly when
the wheels are equipped with tire chains or
the wheels are buried in snow.
c Do not place metalized film or any metal
parts (antenna, etc.) on the windows. This
may cause poor reception of the signals from
the tire pressure sensors, and the TPMS will
not function properly.
Some devices and transmitters may temporarily
interfere with the operation of the TPMS and
cause the low tire pressure warning light to
illuminate. Some examples are:
± Facilities or electric devices using similar radio frequencies are near the vehicle.
± If a transmitter set to similar frequencies is being used in or near the vehicle. ± If a computer (or similar equipment) or a
DC/AC converter is being used in or near the
vehicle.
FCC Notice:
Changes or modifications not expressly ap-
proved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user's authority to operate the
equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
Rules and RSS-210 of Industry Canada.
Operation is subject to the following two condi-
tions: (1) This device may not cause harmful in-
terference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation of the de-
vice.
AVOIDING COLLISION AND ROLLOVER
WARNING
Failure to operate this vehicle in a safe and
prudent manner may result in loss of control or
an accident.
Be alert and drive defensively at all times. Obey
all traffic regulations. Avoid excessive speed,
high speed cornering, or sudden steering ma-
neuvers, because these driving practices could cause you to lose control of your vehicle.
As
with any vehicle, a loss of control could result in
a collision with other vehicles or objects, or
cause the vehicle to rollover, particularly if the
loss of control causes the vehicle to slide side-
ways. Be attentive at all times, and avoid
driving when tired. Never drive when under the
influence of alcohol or drugs (including pre-
scription or over-the-counter drugs which may
cause drowsiness). Always wear your seat belt
as outlined in the ªSEAT BELTSº in the ª1. Safety
Ð Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint
systemº section of this manual, and also in-
struct your passengers to do so.
Seat belts help reduce the risk of injury in
collisions and rollovers. In a rollover crash, an
unbelted or improperly belted person is signifi-
cantly more likely to be injured or killed than a
person properly wearing a seat belt.
OFF-ROAD RECOVERY
While driving, the right side or left side wheels
may unintentionally leave the road surface. If
this occurs, maintain control of the vehicle by
following the procedure below. Please note that
this procedure is only a general guide. The
vehicle must be driven as appropriate based on
the conditions of the vehicle, road and traffic.
1. Remain calm and do not overreact.
2. Do not apply the brakes.

3. Maintain a firm grip on the steering wheelwith both hands and try to hold a straight
course.
4. When appropriate, slowly release the ac- celerator pedal to gradually slow the ve-
hicle.
5. If there is nothing in the way, steer the vehicle to follow the road while the ve-
hicle speed is reduced. Do not attempt to
drive the vehicle back onto the road sur-
face until vehicle speed is reduced.
6. When it is safe to do so, gradually turn the steering wheel until both tires return
to the road surface. When all tires are on
the road surface, steer the vehicle to stay
in the appropriate driving lane.
cIf you decide that it is not safe to return the
vehicle to the road surface based on vehicle,
road or traffic conditions, gradually slow the
vehicle to a stop in a safe place off the road.
RAPID AIR PRESSURE LOSS
Rapid air pressure loss or a ªblow-outº can
occur if the tire is punctured or is damaged due
to hitting a curb or pothole. Rapid air pressure
loss can also be caused by driving on under-
inflated tires.
Rapid air pressure loss can affect the handling
and stability of the vehicle, especially at high-
way speeds.
Help prevent rapid air pressure loss by main-
taining the correct air pressure and visually
inspect the tires for wear and damage. See
ªWHEELS AND TIRESº in the ª8. Maintenance
and do-it-yourselfº section of this manual.
If a tire rapidly loses air pressure or ªblows-outº
while driving maintain control of the vehicle by
following the procedure below. Please note that
this procedure is only a general guide. The
vehicle must be driven as appropriate based on
the conditions of the vehicle, road and traffic.
WARNING
The following actions can increase the chance
of losing control of the vehicle if there is a
sudden loss of tire air pressure. Losing control
of the vehicle may cause a collision and result
in personal injury. c
The vehicle generally moves or pulls in the
direction of the flat tire.
c Do not rapidly apply the brakes.
c Do not rapidly release the accelerator pedal.
c Do not rapidly turn the steering wheel.
1. Remain calm and do not overreact.
2. Maintain a firm grip on the steering wheel
with both hands and try to hold a straight
course.
3. When appropriate, slowly release the ac- celerator pedal to gradually slow the ve-
hicle.
4. Gradually steer the vehicle to a safe loca- tion off the road and away from traffic if
possible.
5. Lightly apply the brake pedal to gradually stop the vehicle.
6. Turn on the hazard warning flashers and either contact a roadside emergency ser-
vice to change the tire or see ªCHANGING
A FLAT TIREº in the ª6. In case of emer-
gencyº section of this Owner's Manual.
