ANTENNA
To remove the antenna, hold the bottom of the
antenna and turn it counterclockwise.
To install the antenna, turn the antenna clock-
wise and tighten.
CAUTION
. To avoid damaging or deforming the
antenna, be sure to fold down (if so
equipped) or remove the antenna
under the following conditions.
— The vehicle enters a garage with
a low ceiling.

— The vehicle is covered with a carcover.
. Be sure that antenna is removed
before the vehicle enters an auto-
matic car wash.
. Always properly tighten the antenna
rod during installation. Otherwise,
the antenna rod may break during
vehicle operation. When installing a car phone or a CB radio in
your vehicle, be sure to observe the following
precautions, otherwise the new equipment may
adversely affect the electronic control modules
and electronic control system harness.
WARNING
.
A cellular phone should not be used
for any purpose while driving so full
attention may be given to vehicle
operation. Some jurisdictions prohi-
bit the use of cellular phones while
driving.
. If you must make a call while your
vehicle is in motion, the hands-free
cellular phone operational mode (if
so equipped) is highly recom-
mended. Exercise extreme caution
at all times so full attention may be
given to vehicle operation.
. If a conversation in a moving vehicle
requires you to take notes, pull off
the road to a safe location and stop
your vehicle before doing so.
CAUTION
.Keep the antenna as far away as
possible from the electronic control
modules.
. Keep the antenna wire more than 8
in (20 cm) away from the electronic
control system harness. Do not
route the antenna wire next to any
harness.
. Adjust the antenna standing-wave
ratio as recommended by the man-
ufacturer.
. Connect the ground wire from the
CB radio chassis to the body.
. For details, consult a NISSAN deal-
er.

command on the main menu. For example,
press the
button and after the tone say,
“Call Redial.” Note: The combined com-
mand of Call and (a Name) cannot be used.
How to say numbers
NISSAN Voice Recognition requires a certain
way to speak numbers in voice commands.
Refer to the rules and examples below.
. Either “zero” or “oh” can be used for “0”.
Example: 1-800-662-6200
— “One eight oh oh six six two six two oh
oh”, or
— “One eight zero zero six six two six two oh oh”
. Words can be used for the first 4 digits
places only.
Example: 1-800-662-6200
— “One eight hundred six six two six two oh
oh”,
— NOT “One eight hundred six six two sixty two hundred, and
— NOT “One eight oh oh six six two sixty two hundred.
. Numbers can be spoken in small groups.
The system will prompt you to continuing
entering digits, if desired.
Example: 1-800-662-6200 — “One eight zero zero”
The system repeats the numbers and
prompts you to enter more.
— “six six two” The system repeats the numbers and
prompts you to enter more.
— “six two zero zero”
. You can say “Star” for “*” and “Pound” for
“#” at any time in any position of the phone
number. (Available only when using the
“Special Number” command.)
Example: 1-555-1212 *123
— “One five five five one two one two star
one two three”
. Say “pound” for “#”. Say “star” for “*”
(available when using the “Special Number”
command and the “Send” command during
a call) .
. Say “plus” for “+” (available only when using
the “Special Number” command) .
. Say “pause” for a 2 second pause (available
only when storing a phone book number) .
See “Making a call by entering a phone
number” (P.4-57) and “List of voice com-
mands” (P.4-58) for more information.
NOTE:
For best results, say phone numbers as
single digits. The voice command “Help” is available at any
time. Please say the “Help” command to get
information about how to use the system.
INFO
.
If you are controlling the telephone system
by voice command for the first time or do not
know the appropriate voice command,
speak “Help”. The system announces the
available commands.
. When you speak numbers, you can speak
both “zero” or “oh” for “0”.
Manual command selection
Commands can be selected manually. While the
commands are displayed on the audio screen,
select a command by operating the audio tuning
switch, and then push the
switch. Once a
command is manually selected, the voice
command function is cancelled. To return to
voice command mode, push the
switch to
cancel the current operation, and then perform
the first procedure of voice command.

the cellular phone via the Bluetooth
®commu-
nication 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/bluetooth for instructions on
transferring phone numbers from NISSAN re-
commended cellular phones.
The system repeats the number and prompts

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 format is valid. (See “List of voice commands” (P.4-58) .)
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.4-61) .)
The system consistently selects the
wrong entry from the phone book. 1. Ensure that the phone book entry name requested matches what was originally stored. This can be confirmed by using the
“List Names” command. (See “List of voice commands” (P.4-58) .)
2. Replace one of the names being confused with a new name.
