NISSAN 370Z 2019 Owner´s Manual

NISSAN Voice Recognition allows hands-
free operation of the Phone, Navigation,
Information and Audio systems in one of
two modes, Standard Mode or Alternate
Command Mode.
In Standard Mode, commands that are
available are always shown on the display
and announced by the system. You can
complete your desired operation by sim-
ply following the prompts given by the
system. (See “NISSAN voice recognition
Standard Mode” (P.4-105) for details.)
For advanced operation, you can use the
Alternate Command Mode. (See “NISSAN
voice recognition Alternate Command
Mode” (P.4-116) 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 recog-
nition 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 Func- tion available in that mode. Otherwise, it
is recommended that Alternate Com-
mand Mode be turned off and Standard
Mode be used for the best recognition
performance.
For the voice commands for the naviga-
tion system, refer to the Navigation Sys-
tem Owner’s Manual of your vehicle.
For Roadster models:
The voice recognition system cannot be
operated when the soft top is not closed.

USING THE SYSTEM
Initialization
When the ignition switch is pushed to the
ON position, NISSAN Voice Recognition is
initialized, which may take up to one
minute. When completed, the system is
ready to accept voice commands. If the
TALK
switch is pushed before the
initialization completes, the display will
show the message: “System not ready.” or
a beep sounds.
Before starting
To get the best recognition performance
from NISSAN Voice Recognition, observe
the following:
. The interior of the vehicle should be as
quiet as possible. Close the windows
to eliminate the surrounding noises
(traffic noise and vibration sounds,
etc.), which may prevent the system
from correctly recognizing the voice
commands.
. Wait until the tone sounds before
speaking a command.
. Speak in a natural conversational
voice without pausing between
words.
. If the air conditioner is set to “Auto”,
the fan speed is automatically lowered
so that your commands can be re- cognized more easily.

SAA2167

2. A list of commands appears on the screen, and you will hear a prompt.
3. After the tone sounds and the icon on the screen changes from

sounds until your desired operation
is completed. Selecting the “Help” key can display
the detailed information of the each
command.
Operating tips:
. Say a command after the tone.
. Commands that are available are al-
ways shown on the display and spo-
ken through voice menu prompts.
Commands other than those that
are displayed are not accepted. Please
follow the prompts given by the
system.

system announces, “Please say again”.
Repeat the command in a clear voice.
. Push the BACK button once to return
to the previous screen.

announced.
Voice Prompt Interrupt:
To skip the voice guidance function and
give the command immediately, push the

Remember to speak after the tone.
How to speak numbers:
NISSAN Voice Recognition requires a
certain 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 num-
bers
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 of phone digit entry
can improve recognition 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 num-
ber “0 (zero)”, “oh” for the letter “o (oh)”

tion controller, the selected digits will
