NISSAN Voice Recognition allows hands-free
operation of the navigation system and other
systems equipped on this vehicle, in one of two
modes, Standard Mode or Alternate Command
Mode.
In Standard Mode, you can operate Phone and
Information. The 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 opera-
tion of Audio, Climate Control and Display is not
available through Voice Recognition.
For advanced operation, you can change to
Alternate Command Mode that enables the
operation of the display, audio and climate
control through Voice Recognition. When this
mode is active, an expanded list of commands
can be spoken after pushing, and the
voice command menu prompts are turned off.
Please note that in this mode the recognition
success rate may be affected because the
number of available commands and ways of
speaking each command are increased.
For U.S. customers, Standard Mode is selected
by default. For Canadian customers, Alternate
Command Mode is the default mode. One mode
can be switched to another.
“SETTING THE ALTERNATE COMMAND
MODE” (page 9-23)
INFO:
. To improve recognition success when Alter-
nate Command Mode is active, try using the
Command Learning Function available in
that mode.
“VOICE COMMAND LEARNING
FUNCTION” (page 9-23)
Otherwise, it is recommended that Alternate
Command Mode be turned OFF and Stan-
dard Mode be used for the best recognition
performance.
. For the voice commands for the audio, air
conditioner and other systems, refer to the
vehicle Owner’s Manual. The following sec-
tions refer only to the navigation, phone and
information systems.
. When using the system in French, com-
mands and features differ from those avail-
able when using the system in English.
If you select the “Francais” key, the French
language will be displayed, so please use
the French Owner’s Manual. To obtain a
French Owner’s Manual, please refer to the
vehicle Owner’s Manual. The following section is applicable when Stan-
dard Mode is activated. (This mode is selected

USING THE SYSTEM
Initialization
When the ignition switch is pushed to the ON

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 downloading. Please
wait.”
BEFORE STARTING
To get the best recognition performance from
NISSAN Voice Recognition, observe the follow-
ing:
. 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 recognized more easily.

Operating tips

How to speak numbers
NISSAN Voice Recognition requires a certain
way to speak numbers when giving voice
commands. Refer to the following examples.
General rule:
Only single digits 0 (zero) to 9 can be used. (For
example, if you would like to say 500, “five zero
zero” can be used, but “five hundred” cannot.
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”.
