Monitor, heater, air conditioner, audio, phone and voice recognition systems

— Your vehicle is outside of the telephone

service area.

— Your vehicle is in an area where it is

difficult to receive radio waves; such as in
a tunnel, in an underground parking
garage, near a tall building or in a
mountainous area.

— Your cellular phone is locked to prevent 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 person’s voice
during a call.

. Immediately after the ignition switch is

pushed to the ON position, it may be
impossible to receive a call for a short
period of time.

. 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 dis-
ruption.

. While a cellular phone is connected through

the Bluetooth

wireless connection, the

battery power of the cellular phone may
discharge quicker than usual. The Blue-
tooth

Hands-Free Phone System cannot

charge cellular phones.

. If the Bluetooth

Hands-Free Phone System

seems to be malfunctioning, see “Trouble-
shooting guide” later in this section. You can
also visit www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth for
troubleshooting 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 different location
may reduce or eliminate the noise.

. Refer to the cellular phone Owner’s Manual

regarding battery charging, cellular phone
antenna, etc.

. This wireless hands free car kit is based on

Bluetooth

technology,

USING THE SYSTEM

The NISSAN Voice Recognition system allows
hands-free operation of the Bluetooth

Hands-

Free Phone System.

If the vehicle is in motion, some commands may
not be available so full attention may be given to
vehicle operation.

Initialization

When the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position, NISSAN Voice Recognition is initia-
lized, which may take up to one minute. If the

button is pushed before the initialization

completes, the system will accept any com-
mand.

Operating tips

To get the best performance out of the NISSAN
Voice Recognition system, observe the follow-
ing:
. Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as

possible. Close the windows to eliminate
surrounding noises (traffic noises, vibration
sounds, etc.), which may prevent 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

after the tone sounds.

. Speak in a natural voice without pausing

between words.

Giving voice command

To operate NISSAN Voice Recognition, push
and release the

button located on the

steering wheel. After 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 commands

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 say again.” Repeat the command in
a clear voice.

. If you want to go back to the previous

command, you can say “Go back” or
“Correction” anytime the system is waiting
for a response.

. You can cancel a command when the

system is waiting for a response by saying,

“Cancel” or “Quit.” The system announces
“Cancel” and ends the VR session. You can
also push and hold the

button for 5

seconds on the steering wheel at any time to
cancel the VR session. Whenever the VR
session is cancelled, a double beep is
played to indicate you have exited the
system.

Voice prompt inturrpt:

In most cases you can interrupt the voice
feedback to speak the next command by
pressing the

button on the steering wheel.

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 after the tone say, “Call

Redial.” Note: The combined command of Call
and (Speak Name) cannot be used.

How to say numbers

NISSAN Voice Recognition requires a certain
way to speak numbers in voice commands.
Refer to the rules and examples below.
. Either “zero” or “oh” can be used for “0”.

Example: 1-800-662-6200
— “One eight oh oh six six two six two oh

oh”, or

4-136

Monitor, heater, air conditioner, audio, phone and voice recognition systems

— “One eight zero zero six six two six two

oh oh”

. Words can be used for the first 4 digits

places only.
Example: 1-800-662-6200
— “One eight hundred six six two six two oh

oh”,

— NOT “One eight hundred six six two sixty

two hundred, and

— NOT “One eight oh oh six six two sixty

two hundred.

. Numbers can be spoken in small groups.

The system will prompt you to continuing
entering digits, if desired.
Example: 1-800-662-6200
— “One eight zero zero”

The system repeats the numbers and
prompts you to enter more.

— “six six two”

The system repeats the numbers and
prompts you to enter more.

— “six two zero zero”

. You can say “Star” for “*” and “Pound” for

“#” at any time in any position of the phone
number. (Available only when using the
“Special Number” command.)
Example: 1-555-1212 *123

— “One five five five one two one two star

one two three”

. Say “pound” for “#”. Say “star” for “*”

(available when using the “Special Number”
command and the “Send” command during
a call).

. Say “plus” for “+” (available only when using

the “Special Number” command).

. Say “pause” for a 2 second pause (available

only when storing a phone book number).
See “Making a call by entering a phone
number” (P.4-138) and “List of voice com-
mands” (P.4-139) for more information.

NOTE:

For best results, say phone numbers as
single digits.

The voice command “Help” is available at any
time. Please say the “Help” command to get
information about how to use the system.

INFO
. If you are controlling the telephone system

by voice command for the first time or do not
know the appropriate voice command,
speak “Help”. The system announces the
available commands.

. When you speak numbers, you can speak

both “zero” or “oh” for “0”.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

The system should respond correctly to all voice commands without difficulty. If problems are encountered, try the following solutions.

Where the solutions are listed by number, try each solution in turn, starting with number 1, until the problem is resolved.

Symptom

Solution

The system fails to interpret the command correctly.

1. Ensure that the command is valid. See “List of voice commands” (P.4-139).

2. Ensure that the command is spoken after the tone.

3. Speak clearly without pausing between words and at a level appropriate to the ambient noise level in the vehicle.

4. Ensure that the ambient noise level is not excessive (for example, windows open or defroster on). NOTE: If it is too
noisy to use the phone, it is likely that the voice commands will not be recognized.

5. If more than one command was said at a time, try saying the commands separately.

6. If the system consistently fails to recognize commands, the voice training procedure should be carried out to
improve the recognition response for the speaker. See “Speaker adaptation (SA) mode” (P.4-142).

The system consistently selects the wrong entry from
the phonebook.

1. Ensure that the phonebook entry name requested matches what was originally stored. This can be confirmed by
using the “List Names” command. See “Phonebook (phones without automatic phonebook download function)”
(P.4-140).

2. Replace one of the names being confused with a new name.

WARNING

. Use a phone after stopping your

vehicle in a safe location. If you
have to use a phone while driving,
exercise extreme caution at all
times so full attention may be given
to vehicle operation.

. If you are unable to devote full

attention to vehicle operation while
talking on the phone, pull off the
road to a safe location and stop
your vehicle.

CAUTION

To avoid draining the vehicle battery,
use a phone after starting the engine.

Your vehicle 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 can make 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 connect-
ing procedure is required. Your phone is
automatically connected with the in-vehicle
phone module when the ignition switch is
placed in the ACC or ON position with the
previously connected cellular phone turned on
and carried in the vehicle.

NOTE:

Some devices require the user to accept
connections to other Bluetooth

devices. If

your phone does not connect automatic
ally to the system, consult the phone’s
Owner’s Manual for details on device
operation.

You can connect up to 5 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 between a

compatible cellular phone and the in-vehicle
phone module before using the hands-free
phone system.

. Some Bluetooth

enabled cellular phones

may not be recognized or work properly. For
information about Bluetooth

devices that

are available for use with this system, it is
recommended that you contact a NISSAN
dealer.

. 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

initialized, which takes a few seconds. If the
button is pushed before the initialization com-
pletes, the system will announce “Hands-free
phone system not ready” and will not react to
voice commands.

Connecting procedure:

NOTE:

The connecting procedure must be per-
formed when the vehicle is stationary. If
the vehicle starts moving during the pro-
cedure, the procedure will be cancelled.

Giving voice commands

To operate voice recognition, push and release
the

button located on the steering wheel.

After 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 commands

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 saying,
“Cancel” or “Quit.” The system announces
“Cancel” and ends the VR session. You can
also push and hold the

button on the

steering wheel for 5 seconds at any time to
end the VR session. Whenever the VR
session is cancelled, 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 (

- or

+) button

on the steering wheel while being provided
with feedback. 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
pushing the

button on the steering wheel.

After 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, push
the

button and after the tone say, “Call

Redial”.

Operating tips:

To get the best performance out of the Voice
Recognition system, observe the following:
. Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as

possible. Close the windows to eliminate
surrounding noises (traffic noises, vibration
sounds, etc.), which may prevent 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

after the tone sounds.

. Speak in a natural voice without pausing

between words.
