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 connected with thein-vehicle phone module when the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position with the
previously connected cellular phone turned
on and carried in the vehicle.
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 cellular phone and the in-
vehicle phone module before using the
hands-free phone system.
∙ Some Bluetooth® enabled cellular
phones may not be recognized by the
in-vehicle phone module. Please visit
www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth for a
recommended phone list and connect-
ing instructions.
∙ 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
NISSAN Voice Recognition 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.
∙ Wait until the tone sounds before
speaking a command. Otherwise, the
command will not be received properly.
∙ Start speaking a command within
5 seconds af ter the tone sounds.
∙ Speak in a natural voice without paus-
ing between words.
Giving voice commands
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 session
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, press 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.
∙ In most cases you can interrupt the
voice feedback to speak the next com-
mand by pressing the
button on
the steering wheel.
∙ 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
but-
ton and af ter the tone say, “Call Redial.”

VOICE ADAPTATION (VA) MODE
Voice Adaptation (VA) allows up to two out-
of-dialect users to train the system to im-
prove recognition accuracy. By repeating a
number of commands, the users can cre-
ate a voice model of their own voice that is
stored in the system. The system is ca-
pable of storing a different Voice Adapta-
tion model for each connected phone.
Training procedure
The procedure for training a voice is as fol-
lows.

transmission in P (Park).
3. Press and hold the
button for
more than 5 seconds.
4. The system announces: “Press the
PHONE/SEND
button for the
hands-free phone system to enter the
voice adaptation mode or press the
PHONE/END
button to select a
different language.”5. Press the
button.
For additional information on selecting
a different language, refer to “Choosing
a language” in this section.
6. Voice memory A or memory B is se-
lected automatically. If both memory
locations are already in use, the system
will prompt you to overwrite one. Fol-
low the instructions provided by the
system.
7. When preparation is complete and you
are ready to begin, press the
but-
ton.
8. The VA mode will be explained. Follow
the instructions provided by the sys-
tem.
9. When training is finished, the system
will tell you an adequate number of
phrases have been recorded.
10. The system will announce that voice
adaptation has been completed and
the system is ready.
The VA mode will stop if:
∙ The
button is pressed for more
than 5 seconds in VA mode.∙ The vehicle begins moving during VA
mode.
∙ The ignition switch is placed in the OFF
or LOCK position.
Training phrases
During the Voice Adaptation mode, the sys-
tem instructs the trainer to say the follow-
ing phrases. The system will prompt you for
each phrase.
∙ phonebook transfer entry
∙ dial three oh four two nine
∙ delete call back number
∙ incoming
∙ transfer entry
∙ eight pause nine three two pause seven
∙ delete all entries
∙ call seven two four zero nine

NOTE:
Some devices require the user to accept
connections to other Bluetooth® de-
vices. If your phone does not connect au-
tomatic ally to the system, consult the
phone’s Owner’s Manual for details on
device operation.
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 or work
properly. Please visit
www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth or
www.nissan.ca/bluetooth for a recom-
mended phone list and connecting in-
structions.
∙ 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.
– Your cellular phone is locked to pre-
vent it from being dialed.
∙ When the radio wave condition is not
ideal or ambient sound is too loud, it
may be difficult to hear the other per-
son’s voice during a call.
∙ Do not place the cellular phone in an
area surrounded by metal or far away
from the in-vehicle phone module to
prevent tone quality degradation and
wireless connection disruption.∙While a cellular phone is connected
through the Bluetooth® wireless connec-
tion, the battery power of the cellular
phone may discharge quicker than usual.
The Bluetooth® Hands-Free Phone Sys-
tem cannot charge cellular phones.
∙ For additional information, you can visit
www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth or
www.nissan.ca/bluetooth for trouble-
shooting help.
∙ 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 differ-
ent location may reduce or eliminate
the noise.
∙ For additional information, refer to the
cellular phone Owner’s Manual regard-
ing the telephone charges, cellular
phone antenna and body, etc.
