How to speak numbers :
INFINITI Voice Recognition requires a certain
way to speak numbers when giving voice com-
mands. 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 num-
bers 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 of phone digit entry can improve recog-
nition performance.
When speaking a house number, speak the
number “0” as “zero”. If the letter “o (Oh)” is
included in the house number, it will not be
recognized as the number “0 (zero)” even if you
speak “oh” instead of “zero”.
Please speak
“zero” for the number “0 (zero)”, “oh” for the
letter “o (oh)”

speaking one command is sometimes suffi-
cient, but at other times it is necessary to speak
two or more commands. As examples, some
additional basic operations by voice commands

For navigation system commands, see the sepa-
rate Navigation System Owner’s Manual.Example 1 - Placing a call to the phone number

8. The system announces, “Please say thelast four digits” or say change number.
9. Speak “6200”. 10. The system announces, “Dial or Change
Number?”
11. Speak “Dial”.
12. The system makes a call to 800-662- 6200.
Note :
●You can also speak “800-662-6200” (10
continuous digits) or “662-6200” (7 continu-
ous digits), if the area code is not necessary.
However, the 3-3-4 digit grouping is recom-
mended for improved recognition. (See
“How to speak numbers” earlier in this
section.) ●
You can only say a phone number using the
3-3-4 grouping, 7 digits, and 10 digits using
this command. Please use the “International
Call” command for all other formats.
● If you say “Change Number” during phone
number entry, the system will automatically
request that you repeat the number using
the 3-3-4 format. In this case please say the
area code first and then follow the prompts.
● Do not add a “1” in front of the area code
when speaking phone numbers.
● If the system does not recognize your com-
mand, please try repeating the command
using a natural voice. Speaking too slow or
too loudly may further decrease recognition
performance.

INFINITI VOICE RECOGNITION
ALTERNATE COMMAND MODE
The following section is applicable when Alter-
nate Command Mode is activated.
When Alternate Command Mode is activated, an
expanded list of commands can be used after
pressing the TALK
switch. In this mode,
available commands are not fully shown on the
display or prompted. Review the expanded
command list when this mode is active. See
examples of Alternate Command Mode screens.
Please note that in this mode the recognition
success rate may be affected as the number of
available commands and ways of speaking each
command are increased. To improve the recog-
nition success rate, try using the Speaker Ad-
aptation Function available in that mode. (See
“Speaker adaptation function (for Alternate
Command Mode)” later in this section.) Other-
wise it is recommended that Alternate Com-
mand Mode be turned OFF and Standard Mode
be used for the best recognition performance.
