2021 NISSAN LEAF service

NissanConnect® EV with Services powered
by SiriusXM®, Vehicle Information Sharing
with NISSAN. Note, turning off “Vehicle Infor-
mation Sharing with NISSAN” will only dis-
able the automatic sharing of information
at vehicle start-up. Certain categories of
data may still be transmitted if vehicle tele-
matics features are accessed either in the
vehicle or remotely.
Your agreement to the transmission and
use of 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 sub-
scription agreement, your vehicle wire-
lessly transmits recorded vehicle data to
NISSAN for various purposes, including
NissanConnect® EV with Services powered
by SiriusXM®, 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 connec-
tion with the vehicle telematics system. If
you touch [Decline] your vehicle will not
transmit data. However, the telematics fea-
tures referenced above, and perhaps oth-ers, will not be available to you. The vehicle’s
static navigation system will remain opera-
tional, and you will be able to access your
radio and climate controls.
Telematics features are dependent on cel-
lular data transmission. Some areas may
have limited or no cellular connectivity, re-
sulting in a loss or interruption of data
transmission and, as a result, certain fea-
tures 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, mountain-
ous areas, etc. Even if the signal strength
bar of the in-vehicle data communication
module indicates good reception, connec-
tivity may be disrupted. This does not indi-
cate a malfunction. Operate the system
again af ter a few minutes to restore con-
nectivity. NissanConnect® EV with Services
powered by SiriusXM® 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 inaccu-
rate data. NissanConnect® EV with Services
powered by SiriusXM® communications
may be received at a verified e-mail ad-
dress 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 ac-
tive, 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 infor-
mation. Upon sale of the vehicle, please
contact NISSAN at the website or phone
number above so that NISSAN’s records
may be updated. NissanConnect® EV with
Services powered by SiriusXM® subscrip-
tion services will automatically terminate
at the end of the initial free term if you do
not wish to renew your subscription agree-
ment at the prices then in effect.
