NISSAN Voice Recognition allows hands-free
operation of the systems equipped on this ve-
hicle, such as phone and vehicle information.
There are two voice recognition modes of opera-
tion available. They are:
●Standard Mode
●Alternate Command Mode
In Standard Mode (the factory default setting) ,
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. Not all
NISSAN Voice Recognition options are available
while in Standard Mode.
For advanced operation, you can change to an
Alternate Command Mode that enables the op-
eration of the display and audio system through
NISSAN Voice Recognition. When this mode is
active, an expanded list of commands can be
spoken after pressing the
button on the
steering wheel, and the voice command menu
prompts are turned off.
In Alternate Command Mode the recognition
success rate may be affected because the num-
ber of available commands and the ways of
speaking each command are increased. For ad-ditional information, refer to “NISSAN Voice Rec-
ognition Alternate Command Mode” in this sec-
tion.
To improve the recognition success rate when
Alternate Command Mode is active, try using the
Speaker Adaptation Function available in that
mode. For additional information, refer to
“Speaker Adaptation Function” in this section.
Otherwise, it is recommended that Alternate
Command Mode be turned off and Standard
Mode be used for the best recognition perfor-
mance.
While using the NISSAN Voice Recognition sys-
tem for certain Phone and Navigation features,
you can switch to using manual controls (touch-
screen, NISSAN controller, steering wheel con-
trols) and the information you have already en-
tered by voice control will be retained. To switch
to manual controls, touch the “Manual Controls”
key on the display when it appears. The system
will respond by speaking “Changing to manual
operation. Please use manual controls to con-
tinue.”
For the voice commands for the navigation sys-
tem, refer to the Navigation System Owner’s
Manual of your vehicle.
For vehicles in the U.S., the factory default setting
is the Standard Mode. For additional information,
refer to “NISSAN Voice Recognition StandardMode” in this section. For vehicles in Canada, the
factory default setting is the Alternate Command
Mode. For additional information, refer to “Alter-
nate Command Mode” in this section.
NISSAN VOICE RECOGNITION

The Standard Mode enables control of naviga-
