To operate NISSAN Voice Recognition, press and release the 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.” 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 press and hold the 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.

– “One eight oh oh six six two six two oh oh”, or

– “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 continue 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”
