BLUETOOTH®STREAMING AUDIO
.Some Bluetooth®audio devices may not be
recognized by the in-vehicle audio system.
. It is necessary to set up the wireless
connection between a compatible Blue-
tooth
®audio device and the in-vehicle
Bluetooth®module before using the Blue-
tooth®streaming audio.
. The Bluetooth®streaming audio may be
stopped under the following conditions:
— Receiving a hands-free call.
— Checking the connection to the hands-
free phone.
— Connecting the hands-free phone or the audio device.
— Downloading the phonebook memory from the connected cellular phone.
. Do not place a Bluetooth
®audio device in
an area surrounded by metal or far away
from the in-vehicle Bluetooth
®module to
prevent tone quality degradation and wire-
less connection disruption.
. While an audio device is connected through
a Bluetooth
®wireless connection, the bat-
tery of the device may discharge quicker
than usual. .
This system supports the Bluetooth
®Audio
Distribution Profile (A2DP, AVRCP).
. Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) and the Bluetooth
®
functions share the same frequency band
(2.4 GHz) . Using the Bluetooth®and the
wireless LAN functions at the same time may
slow down or disconnect the communica-
tion and cause undesired noise. It is
recommended that you turn off the wireless
LAN (Wi-Fi) when using the Bluetooth
®
functions.

data by NISSAN can be provided in various
ways. The vehicle is equipped with a “pop up”
screen on the vehicle navigation system that will
ask for your consent to this data transfer. A
version of the following message will appear:
“Pursuant to subscription agreement, your ve-
hicle wirelessly transmits recorded vehicle data
to NISSAN for various purposes, including
CARWINGS
TMservices, product evaluation,
research and development. By touching [OK],
you consent to the transmission and use of your
vehicle data. See Owner’s Manual or NISSAN
Owner’s portal webpage for terms and details.”
If you touch [OK], your vehicle will transmit data
as designed in connection with the vehicle
telematics system. If you touch [Decline] your
vehicle will not transmit data. However, the
telematics features referenced above, and per-
haps others, will not be available to you. The
vehicle’s static navigation system will remain
operational, and you will be able to access your
radio and climate controls.
Telematics features are dependent on cellular
data transmission. Some areas may have limited
or no cellular connectivity, resulting in a loss or
interruption of data transmission and, as a result,
certain features may be temporarily unavailable.
Even if areas with good signal reception, cellular
connectivity can be adversely affected by things
such as tall buildings, apartments, tunnels, underground parking, mountainous areas, etc.
Even if the signal strength bar of the in-vehicle
data communication module indicates good
reception, connectivity may be disrupted. This
does not indicate a malfunction. Operate the
system again after a few minutes to restore
connectivity. CARWINGS
TMtelematics features
are offered as a convenience to the vehicle
owner. NISSAN is not responsible for, and
owner assumes all risk of, interruptions in
service or errors based on incomplete or
inaccurate data. CARWINGS
TMcommunica-
tions may be received at a verified e-mail
address or by SMS/text messaging-enabled
mobile phone. Standard text rates and/or data
usage may apply depending on your carrier.
If your vehicle’s telematics account is active, and
you are not the original owner, please contact
NISSAN at the website or phone number above
as soon as possible to update the telematics
enrollment information. Upon sale of the vehicle,
please contact NISSAN at the website or phone
number above so that NISSAN’s records may be
updated. CARWINGS
TMsubscription services
will automatically terminate at the end of the
initial free term if you do not wish to renew your
subscription agreement at the prices then in
effect.
