Apple CarPlay SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
For all features of Apple CarPlay to operate
correctly, it is necessary to have a compatible
iPhone, a cellular connection and a data plan.
When Apple CarPlay is operating, system
performance is affected by the strength of the
cellular connection or performance of the phone
itself. If performance of the system decreases:
. Disconnect and reconnect your phone
. Close all apps and restart them
. Cycle phone power off/on to restart
It is also recommended to use the Apple
Lightning cable that was provided with your
phone and confirm the latest software version is
installed.
Functionality of Apple CarPlay may decrease or
be lost if there are changes to operating systems,
hardware, software or other technologies central
to supporting the system that are outside of
NISSAN’s control. Changing government regu-
lations may also affect operation of Apple Car-
Play.
