USING THE SYSTEM
Initialization
When the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position, NISSAN Voice Recognition is initia-
lized, which may take up to one minute. When
completed, the system is ready to accept voice
commands. If is pushed before the
initialization completes, the display will show the
message: “Phonetic data downloaded. Please
wait.”
9-20Voice recognition

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
numbers by saying the phone number in 3
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
4 digits. Say, “Six Two Zero Zero”. Using this
method of phone digit entry can improve
recognition performance.
INFO:
When speaking a house number, speak the
number “0” as “zero”. If the letter “O” is included
in the house number, it will not be recognized as
the number “0” even if you speak “oh” instead of
“zero”. You can only say zero for “0”.

will not be provided in these areas.” When
approaching the endpoint of the suggested
road, voice guidance will announce, “Entering
the road with incomplete map data. Please use
the direction arrow and distance information to
proceed to your destination.”
REPEATING VOICE GUIDANCE
This function is available throughout route
guidance, from the time after the route calcula-
tion is completed until the vehicle arrives at the
destination. Push. Voice guidance
will be repeated.
INFO:
. If you push when you have
deviated from the suggested route and
when the automatic reroute function is off,
voice guidance will announce, “Proceed to
the highlighted route.”
. If you push when you are going
in the wrong direction, voice guidance will
announce: “Please make a legal U-turn if
possible.”
NOTES ON VOICE GUIDANCE
. Voice guidance in this system should be
regarded as a supplementary function.
When driving your vehicle, check the route on the map and follow the actual roads and
traffic regulations.
. Voice guidance is activated only for inter-
sections with certain conditions. There may
be cases that the vehicle has to turn, but
voice guidance is not provided.
. Voice guidance contents may vary, depend-
ing on the direction of the turn and the type
of intersection.
. The voice guidance timing will vary depend-
ing on the situation.
. When the vehicle has deviated from the
suggested route, voice guidance is not
available. The system will not announce this
to you. Refer to the map and recalculate the
route.
“RECALCULATE ROUTE” (page 5-
16)
. Voice guidance may not accurately corre-
spond with road numbers and directions at
freeway junctions.
. Voice guidance may not accurately corre-
spond to street names at freeway exits.
. The displayed street names may sometimes
differ from the actual names, or “UN-
KNOWN STREET NAME” may be dis-
played.
. Voice guidance is not available when the
[Guidance Voice] indicator is not illuminated. .
Voice guidance will start when the vehicle
enters the suggested route. Refer to the
map for directions to the starting point of the
route.
. When approaching a waypoint, voice gui-
dance will announce, “You have arrived at
waypoint 1 (2, 3, 4,...) .” Voice guidance will
switch to the next section of the route. When
voice guidance is not available, refer to the
map for directions.
. In some cases, voice guidance ends before
arrival at the destination. Refer to the
destination icon on the map to reach the
destination.
. If the system recognizes on which side the
destination (waypoint) is located, voice
guidance will announce “on the right/left”
after announcing the arrival at the destina-
tion.
. Voice guidance may be partially operational
or inoperative due to the angle of roads at an
intersection.
. Because freeway lane information is avail-
able only for approximately 7,000 major
freeways in North America, it is not possible
to display information for all junctions and
exits.
. Freeway exit information may differ from the
information on the actual exit signs.
10-12General system information

SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
Names of roads and locations differ
between Plan View and Birdview
TM. This is because the quantity of the displayed information is reduced so that
the screen does not become too crowded. There is also a chance that
names of the roads or locations may be displayed multiple times, and the
names appearing on the screen may be different because of a processing
procedure. This is not a malfunction.
The vehicle icon is not displayed in the
correct position. The vehicle was transported after the ignition switch was pushed off, for
example, by a ferry or car transporter. Drive the vehicle for a while on a road where GPS
signals can be received.
The position and direction of the vehicle icon may be incorrect depending
on the driving environments and the levels of positioning accuracy of the
navigation system. This is not a malfunction. Drive the vehicle for a while
to automatically correct the position and direction of
the vehicle icon.
“CURRENT VEHICLE LOCATION” (page
10-3)
When the vehicle is traveling on a new
road, the vehicle icon is located on
another road nearby. Because the new road is not stored in the map data, the system
automatically places the vehicle icon on the nearest road available.
Updated road information will be included in the next
version of the map data.
The screen does not switch to the night
screen even after turning on the head-
lights. The daytime screen was set the last time the headlights were turned on. Set the screen to the night screen mode using
when you turn on the headlights.“DISPLAY SETTINGS” (page 8-2)
The map does not scroll even when the
vehicle is moving. The current location map screen is not displayed.
