NISSAN Voice Recognition allows hands-free
operation of the systems equipped on this
vehicle, such as phone and vehicle information
as a factory default setting (Standard Mode) .
Commands that are available are always shown
on the display and announced by the system.
You can complete your desired operation by
simply following the prompts given by the
system. In this mode, hands-free operation of
Audio, Climate Control and Display is not
available through NISSAN Voice Recognition.
For advanced operation, you can change to an
Alternate Command Mode that enables the
operation of the display, audio, and climate
control through NISSAN Voice Recognition.
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. Note that in this
mode the recognition success rate may be
affected as the number of available commands
and the ways of speaking each command are
increased. (See “NISSAN VOICE RECOGNI-
TION ALTERNATE COMMAND MODE” later in
this section for details about Alternate Com-
mand Mode.)
To improve the recognition success rate when
Alternate Command Mode is active, try using the
Speaker Adaptation Function available in that
mode. (See “SPEAKER ADAPTATION FUNC-
TION” later in this section.) Otherwise, it isrecommended that Alternate Command Mode
be turned off and Standard Mode be used for
the best recognition performance.
For the voice commands for the navigation
system, refer to the Navigation System Owner’s
Manual of your vehicle.

InitializationWhen the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position, NISSAN Voice Recognition is initia-
lized, which takes a few seconds. 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: “Phonetic data downloaded.
Please wait.” or a beep sounds.
Before startingTo get the best performance from NISSAN
Voice Recognition, observe the following:
.Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as
possible. Close the windows to eliminate the
surrounding noises (traffic noises, vibration
sounds, etc.) , which may prevent the system
from recognizing the voice commands cor-
rectly.
.When the climate control is in the AUTO
mode, the fan speed decreases automati-
cally for easy recognition.
.Wait until a tone sounds before speaking a
command.
.Speak in a natural voice without pausing
between words.
