the surrounding noises (traffic noise and vi-
bration sounds, etc.), which may prevent the

commands.
● Wait until the tone sounds before speaking a
command.

out pausing between words.

How to speak numbers
NISSAN Voice Recognition requires a certain
way to speak numbers when giving voice
commands. Refer to the following examples.
General rule:
Only single digits 0 (zero) to 9 can be used. For
example, if speaking 500, “five zero zero” can be
used, but “five hundred” cannot.
