How to speak numbers NISSAN Voice Recognition requires a certain way to speak numbers when giving voice commands. Refer to the following examples.


Examples:


1-800-662-6200


— “One eight zero zero six six two six two


zero zero”


Improving Recognition of Phone numbers:


You can improve the recognition of phone numbers by saying the phone number in three groups of numbers. For example, when you try to call 800-662-6200, say “eight zero zero” first, and the system will then ask you for the next three digits. Then, say “six six two”. After recognition, the system will then ask for the last four digits. Say, “six two zero zero”. Using this method of phone digit entry can improve recognition performance.


When speaking a house number, speak the If the letter “o (Oh)” is number “0” as “zero”. included in the house number, it will not be recognized as the number “0 (zero)” even if you speak “oh” instead of “zero”. You can only say “zero” for “0 (zero)”. You can say either “zero” or “ oh” for “o (Oh)”.

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:


Note 1: For the best voice recognition phone dialing results, say phone numbers as single digits.


Note 2: You cannot say 555-6000 as “five five five six thousands”.


Note 3: When speaking a house number, speak the number “0” as “ zero”. If the letter “o ( Oh)” is included in the house number, it will not be recognized as the number “0 (zero)” even if you speak “oh” instead of “ zero”. You can only say “zero” for “0 ( Zero)”. You can say either “zero” or “oh” for “o (Oh)”.


Operating tips . Voice commands cannot be accepted when

Only single digits 0 (zero) to 9 can be used. (For example, if you would like to say 500, “five zero zero” can be used, but “five hundred” cannot.)

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE The system should respond correctly to all voice commands without difficulty. If problems are encountered, follow the solutions given in this guide for the appropriate error. Where the solutions are listed by number, try each solution in turn, starting with number one, until the problem is resolved.


Symptom/error message


Displays “COMMAND NOT RECOGNIZED” or the system fails to interpret the command correctly.


Solution


1. Ensure that the command format is valid, see “Command List” earlier in this section.


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


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


The system consistently selects the wrong voicetag in the phonebook.


4. If optional words of the command have been omitted, then the command should be tried with these in place. 1. Ensure that the voicetag requested matches what was originally stored. (See “BLUETOOTH® HANDS-FREE


PHONE SYSTEM WITH NAVIGATION SYSTEM” earlier in this section; page 4-75.)


2. Replace one of the voicetags being confused with a different voicetag.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE The system should respond correctly to all voice commands without difficulty. If problems are encountered, follow the solutions given in this guide for the appropriate error. Where the solutions are listed by number, try each solution in turn, starting with number one, until the problem is resolved.


Symptom/error message


Displays “COMMAND NOT RECOGNIZED” or the system fails to interpret the command correctly.


Solution


1. Ensure that the command format is valid, see “COMMAND LIST” earlier in this section.


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


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


4. If optional words of the command have been omitted, then the command should be tried with these in place. The system consistently selects the wrong voicetag. 1. Ensure that the voicetag requested matches what was originally stored. (See “BLUETOOTH® HANDS-FREE


PHONE SYSTEM WITH NAVIGATION SYSTEM” earlier in this section, page 4-85.)


2. Replace one of the voicetags being confused with a different voicetag.

PRECAUTIONS WHEN STARTING AND DRIVING


WARNING


. Do not leave children or adults who would normally require the support of others alone in your vehicle. Pets should not be left alone either. They could accidentally injure themselves or others through inadvertent op- eration of the vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny days, temperatures in a closed vehicle could quickly become high enough to cause severe or possibly fatal injuries to people or animals.


. Properly secure all cargo with ropes or straps to help prevent it from sliding or shifting. Do not place cargo higher than the seatbacks. In a sudden stop or collision, unse- cured cargo could cause personal injury.


EXHAUST GAS (carbon monoxide)


WARNING


. Do not breathe exhaust gases; they contain colorless and odorless car- bon monoxide. Carbon monoxide is


5-2 Starting and driving


dangerous. sciousness or death.


It can cause uncon-


If you suspect that exhaust fumes are entering the vehicle, drive with all windows fully open, and have the vehicle inspected immediately.


. Do not run the engine in closed


spaces such as a garage.


. Do not park the vehicle with the engine running for any extended length of time.


. Keep the lift gate closed while driving, otherwise exhaust gases could be drawn into the passenger compartment. If you must drive with the lift gate open, follow these precautions:


1. Open all the windows.


2. Set the


air recirculation to off and the fan control to high to circulate the air.


If electrical wiring or other cable connections must pass to a trailer through the seal on the lift gate or the body, follow the manufacturer’s recommendation to prevent carbon monoxide entry into the vehicle.


If a special body, camper or other equipment is added for recreational or other usage, follow the manufac- turer’s recommendation to prevent carbon monoxide entry into the vehicle. (Some recreational vehicle appliances such as stoves, refrig- erators, heaters, etc. may also gen- erate carbon monoxide.)


The exhaust system and body should be inspected by a qualified mechanic whenever:


— The vehicle is raised for service. — You suspect that exhaust fumes are entering into the passenger compartment.


— You notice a change in the


sound of the exhaust system.


— You have had an accident invol- ving damage to the exhaust system, underbody, or rear of the vehicle.


THREE-WAY CATALYST The three-way catalyst is an emission control device installed in the exhaust system. Exhaust gases in the three-way catalyst are burned at high temperatures to help reduce pollutants.


Model "Z51-D" EDITED: 2007/ 10/ 2


WARNING


The exhaust gas and the exhaust system are very hot. Keep people, animals or flammable materials away from the exhaust system com- ponents.


. Do not stop or park the vehicle over flammable materials such as dry grass, waste paper or rags. They may ignite and cause a fire.


CAUTION


. Do not use leaded gasoline. Depos- its from leaded gasoline will ser- i o u s l y r e d u c e t h e t h r e e - w a y catalyst’s ability to help reduce ex- haust pollutants.


. Keep your engine tuned up. Mal- functions in the ignition, fuel injec- tion, or electrical systems can cause overrich fuel flow into the three-way catalyst, causing it to overheat. Do not keep driving if the engine mis- fires, or if noticeable loss of perfor- mance or other unusual operating conditions are detected. Have the


vehicle inspected promptly by a NISSAN dealer.


. Avoid driving with an extremely low fuel level. Running out of fuel could cause the engine to misfire, dama- ging the three-way catalyst.


. Do not race the engine while warm-


ing it up.


. Do not push or tow your vehicle to


start the engine.


TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYS- TEM (TPMS) Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)


As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as


that


Black plate (315,1)


possible, and inflate them to the proper pres- sure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel effi- ciency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.


Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.


illumination of


Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approxi- mately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists. When the malfunction indi- cator is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of replace- ment or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or


Starting and driving 5-3


Model "Z51-D" EDITED: 2007/ 10/ 2


Black plate (316,1)


alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly.


Additional information


The TPMS does not monitor pressure of the spare tire.


the tire


The TPMS will activate only when the vehicle is driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h). Also, this system may not detect a sudden drop in tire pressure (for example a flat tire while driving).


The low tire pressure warning light does not automatically turn off when the tire pressure is adjusted. After the tire is inflated to the recommended pressure, the vehicle must be driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h) to activate the TPMS and turn off the low tire pressure warning light. Use a tire pressure gauge to check the tire pressure.


Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the heat caused by the vehicle’s operation and the outside temperature. Low outside temperature can lower the temperature of the air inside the tire which can cause a lower tire inflation pressure. This may cause the low tire pressure warning light to illuminate. If the warning light illuminates in low ambient temperature, check the tire pressure for all four tires.


For additional


information, see “Low tire pres-


5-4 Starting and driving


sure warning light” in the “2. Instruments and controls” section and “TIRE PRESSURE MON- ITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)” in the “6. In case of emergency” section.


WARNING


If the low tire pressure warning light illuminates while driving, avoid sud- den steering maneuvers or abrupt braking, reduce vehicle speed, pull off the road to a safe location and stop the vehicle as soon as possi- ble. Driving with under-inflated tires may permanently damage the tires and increase the likelihood of tire failure. Serious vehicle damage could occur and may lead to an accident and could result in serious personal injury. Check the tire pres- sure for all four tires. Adjust the tire pressure to the recommended COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and Loading Information label to turn the low tire pressure warning light OFF. If you have a flat tire, replace it with a spare tire as soon as possi- ble. (See “FLAT TIRE” in the “6. In case of emergency” section for changing a flat tire.)


. When a spare tire is mounted or a wheel is replaced, the TPMS will not function and the low tire pressure warning light will flash for approxi- mately 1 minute. The light will remain on after 1 minute. Contact your NISSAN dealer as soon as possible for tire replacement and/ or system resetting.


. Replacing tires with those not ori- ginally specified by NISSAN could affect the proper operation of the TPMS. . Do not


inject any tire liquid or aerosol tire sealant into the tires, as this may cause a malfunction of the tire pressure sensors.


CAUTION


The TPMS may not function properly when the wheels are equipped with tire chains or the wheels are buried in snow.


. Do not place metalized film or any metal parts (antenna, etc.) on the windows. This may cause poor re- ception of the signals from the tire


Model "Z51-D" EDITED: 2007/ 10/ 2


pressure sensors, and the TPMS will not function properly.


AVOIDING COLLISION AND ROLL- OVER


Some devices and transmitters may temporarily interfere with the operation of the TPMS and cause the low tire pressure warning light to illuminate. Some examples are:


Facilities or electric devices using similar radio frequencies are near the vehicle.


If a transmitter set to similar frequencies is being used in or near the vehicle.


If a computer (or similar equipment) or a DC/ AC converter is being used in or near the vehicle.
