USING THE SYSTEM
Initialization
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, NISSAN Voice Recognition is initialized,
which takes a few seconds. When completed,
the system is ready to accept voice commands. If
the switch is pressed before the initialization
completes, voice commands will not be accepted.
Please wait until the NISSAN Voice Recognition
initialization is completed.
BEFORE STARTING
To get the best recognition performance from
Voice Recognition, observe the following:
● 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.
