directed to dial an extension by an
automated system:
Say: “Send one two three four.”
The system acknowledges the com-
mand and sends the tones associated
with the numbers. The system then
ends the VR session and returns to
the call. Say “star” for “*”, say “pound”

name you would like to give the new
entry.
For example, say: “Mary.”
If the name is too long or too short, the
system tells you, then prompts you for a
name again.
Also, if the name sounds too much like a
name already stored, the system tells you,
then prompts you for a name again.
The system will ask you to transfer a
phone number stored in the cellular
phone’s memory.
To enter a phone number by voice
command:
For example, say: “five five five one two
one two.” See “How to say numbers” (P.4-
89) for more information.
To transfer a phone number stored in the
cellular phone’s memory:
Say: “Transfer entry.” The system ac-
knowledges the command and asks you
to initiate the transfer from the phone
handset. The new contact phone number
will be transferred from the cellular phone
via the Bluetooth® communication link.
The transfer procedure varies according
to each cellular phone. See the cellular
phone Owner’s Manual for details. You
can also visit www.nissanusa.com/blue-
tooth for instructions on transferringphone numbers from NISSAN recom-
mended cellular phones.

Phonebook (phones with auto-
matic phonebook download func-
tion)
NOTE:
Phonebook commands are not avail-
able when the vehicle is moving.
For phones that support automatic
download of the phonebook (PBAP Blue-
tooth profile), the “Phonebook” command
is used to manage entries to the vehicle
phonebook. You can say the name of an
entry at this menu to initiate dialing of
that entry.
The phonebook stores up to 1000 names
for each phone paired with the system.
Each name can have up to 4 locations/
phone numbers associated with it.

system, the phonebook is automatically
downloaded to the vehicle. This feature
allows you to access your phonebook
from the Bluetooth® system and call
contacts by name. You can record a

custom voice tag for contact names that
the system has difficulty recognizing. For
more information see “Record Name” in

nebook. You cannot access Phone A’s
phonebook if you are currently con-
nected with Phone B.
“List names”

The system allows you to record custom
voice tags for contact names in the phonebook that the vehicle has difficulty
recognizing. This feature can also be used
to record voice tags to directly dial an
entry with multiple numbers. Up to 40
voice tags can be recorded to the system.

vent a wireless connection to your phone.
“Replace phone”
This can be used to reconnect a new
phone with the vehicle you have changed
your cellular phone.
SPEAKER ADAPTATION (SA) MODE
Speaker Adaptation allows up to two out-
of dialect users to train the system to
improve recognition accuracy. By repeat-
ing a number of commands, the users
can create a voice model of their own
voice that is stored in the system. The
system is capable of storing a differentspeaker adaptation model for each con-
nected phone.
Training procedure
1. Position the vehicle in a reasonably
quiet outdoor location.
2. Sit in the driver’s seat with the engine running, the parking brake on, and the
transmission in Park.
3. Push and hold the
button for
more than 5 seconds.
4. The system announces: “Press the PHONE SEND (
) button for the
hands-free phone system to enter
the speaker adaptation mode or press
the PHONE END (
) button to select
a different language.”
5. Push the
button.
For information on selecting a differ-
ent language, see “Choosing a lan-
guage” (P.4-90).
6. If the connected phone is already in use, the system will prompt you to
overwrite. Follow the instructions pro-
vided by the system.
7. When preparation is complete and you are ready to begin, push the
button.
8. The SA mode will be explained. Follow the instructions provided by the sys-
tem. 9. When training is finished, the system
will tell you an adequate number of
phrases have been recorded.
10. The system will announce that speak- er adaptation has been completed
and the system is ready.
The SA mode will stop if:
. The
button is pressed for more
than 5 seconds in SA mode.
. The vehicle is driven during SA mode.
. The ignition switch is placed in the
OFF or LOCK position.
Training phrases
During the SA mode, the system instructs
you to say the following phrases.
(The system will prompt you for each
phrase.)

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
The system fails to interpret the command
correctly. 1. Ensure that the command is valid. See “List of voice commands” (P.4-92).
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.
6. If the system consistently fails to recognize commands, the voice training procedure should be
carried out to improve the recognition response for the speaker. See “Speaker Adaptation (SA)
mode” (P.4-96).
The system consistently selects the wrong
entry from the phonebook. 1. Ensure that the phonebook entry name requested matches what was originally stored. This can
be confirmed by using the “List Names” command. See “Phonebook (phones without automatic
phonebook download function)” (P.4-93).
2. Replace one of the names being confused with a new name.

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.4-99) for details.)
For advanced operation, you can use the
Alternate Command Mode. (See “NISSAN
voice recognition Alternate Command
Mode” (P.4-110) 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.
