BEFORE STARTING

To get the best recognition performance
out of INFINITI 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. Otherwise, the
command will not be recognized prop­erly.

. 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.

VOICE COMMAND EXAMPLES

To use the voice recognition function,
speaking one command is sometimes
sufficient, but at other times it is necessary
to speak two or more commands.
As examples, some additional basic opera­tions by voice commands are described
here.
