ignition NISSAN MICRA 2018 Owner´s Manual

The air conditioner system in your NISSAN
vehicle is charged with a refrigerant de-
signed with the environment in mind.
This refrigerant does not harm the
earth’s ozone layer.
Special charging equipment and lubricant
is required when servicing your NISSAN air
conditioner. Using improper refrigerants or
lubricants will cause severe damage to
your air conditioner system. For additional
information, refer to “Air conditioner sys-
tem (if so equipped) refrigerant and oil rec-
ommendations” in the “Technical and con-
sumer information” section of this manual.
It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer to service your “environmentally
friendly” air conditioning system.
WARNING
The air conditioner system contains re-
frigerant under high pressure. To avoid
personal injury, any air conditioner ser-
vice should be done only by a NISSAN
dealer.
RADIO
Place the ignition switch in the ACC or ON
position and press the
(power) but-
ton / PWR (button) to turn the radio on. If
you listen to the radio with the engine not
running, the ignition switch should be
placed in the ACC position.
Radio reception is affected by station sig-
nal strength, distance from radio transmit-
ter, buildings, bridges, mountains and other
external influences. Intermittent changes
in reception quality normally are caused by
these external influences.
Using a cellular phone in or near the ve-
hicle may influence radio reception qual-
ity.
Radio reception
Your NISSAN radio system is equipped with
state-of-the-art electronic circuits to en-
hance radio reception. These circuits are
designed to extend reception range and to
enhance the quality of that reception.
However, there are some general charac-
teristics of both FM and AM radio signals
that can affect radio reception quality in a
moving vehicle, even when the finest
equipment is used. These characteristics
are completely normal in a given reception area and do not indicate any malfunction
in your NISSAN radio system.
Reception conditions will constantly
change because of vehicle movement.
Buildings, terrain, signal distance and inter-
ference from other vehicles can work
against ideal reception. Described below
are some of the factors that can affect your
radio reception.
Some cellular phones or other devices may
cause interference or a buzzing noise to
come from the audio system speakers.
Storing the device in a different location
may reduce or eliminate the noise.
FM RADIO RECEPTION
Range: FM range is normally limited to 40 –
48 km (25 – 30 mi) with monaural (single
channel) FM having slightly more range
than stereo FM. External influences may
sometimes interfere with FM station re-
ception even if the FM station is within
40 km (25 mi). The strength of the FM signal
is directly related to the distance between
the transmitter and receiver. FM signals fol-
low a line-of-sight path, exhibiting many of
the same characteristics as light. For ex-
ample, they will reflect off objects.

Your NISSAN is equipped with the
Bluetooth® Hands-Free Phone System. If
you have a compatible Bluetooth® enabled
cellular phone, you can set up the wireless
connection between your cellular phone
and the in-vehicle phone module. With
Bluetooth® wireless technology, you canmake or receive a hands-free telephone
call with your cellular phone in the vehicle.
Once your cellular phone is connected to
the in-vehicle phone module, no other
phone connecting procedure is required.
Your phone is automatically connectedwith the in-vehicle phone module when
the ignition switch is placed in the ON po-
sition with the previously connected cellu-
lar phone turned on and carried in the ve-
hicle.
You can connect up to five different
Bluetooth® cellular phones to the in-
vehicle phone module. However, you can
talk on only one cellular phone at a time.
Before using the Bluetooth® Hands-Free
Phone System, refer to the following notes.
∙ Set up the wireless connection be- tween a compatible cellular phone and
the in-vehicle phone module before us-
ing the hands-free phone system.
∙ Some Bluetooth® enabled cellular phones may not be recognized by the
in-vehicle phone module.
∙ You will not be able to use a hands-free phone under the following conditions:
– Your vehicle is outside of the cellular service area.
– Your vehicle is in an area where it is difficult to receive a cellular signal;
such as in a tunnel, in an under-
ground parking garage, near a tall
building or in a mountainous area.

Initialization
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, NISSAN Voice Recognition is initial-
ized, which takes a few seconds. If the
button is pressed before the initialization
completes, the system will announce
“Hands-free phone system not ready” and
will not react to voice commands.
Operating tips
To get the best performance out of the
system, observe the following:∙ Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as possible. Close the windows to elimi-
nate surrounding noises (traffic noises,
vibration sounds, etc.), which may pre-
vent the system from recognizing voice
commands correctly.
Giving voice commands (if so
equipped)
To operate NISSAN Voice Recognition,
press and release the
button located
on the steering wheel. Af ter the tone
sounds, speak a command.
The command given is picked up by the
microphone, and voice feedback is given
when the command is accepted. ∙ If you need to hear the available com-
mands for the current menu again, say
“Help” and the system will repeat them.
∙ If a command is not recognized, the system announces, “Command not
recognized. Please try again.” Make sure
the command is said exactly as
prompted by the system and repeat
the command in a clear voice.
∙ If you want to go back to the previous command, you can say “Go back” or
“Correction” any time the system is
waiting for a response.
∙ You can cancel a command when the system is waiting for a response by say-
ing, “Cancel” or “Quit.” The system an-
nounces “Cancel” and ends the Voice
Recognition session. You can also press
and hold the
button on the steer-
ing wheel for 5 seconds at any time to
end the Voice Recognition session.
Whenever the Voice Recognition ses-
sion is canceled, a double beep is
played to indicate you have exited the
system. ∙ If you want to adjust the volume of the
voice feedback, push the volume con-
trol switches (+ or -) on the steering
wheel while being provided with feed-
back. You can also use the radio volume
control knob.
Voice Prompt Interrupt
In most cases you can interrupt the voice
feedback to speak the next command by
pressing the
button on the steering
wheel. Af ter interrupting the system, wait
for a beep before speaking your command.
One Shot Call
To use the system faster, you may speak
the second level commands with the main
menu command on the main menu. For
example, press the
button and af ter
the tone say, “Call Redial”.
