Driving is serious business. Only use Infiniti Connection™ and Infiniti Connection Plus services when safe to do so. Services, 
including automatic crash notification and SOS, require an active subscr\
iption, and are dependent upon the telematics device 
being in an operative condition, its ability to connect to a wireless ne\
twork, compatible wireless network availability, navigation 
map data, and GPS satellite signal receptions, the absence of which can \
limit or prevent the ability to reach Infiniti Connection 
Customer Care or receive support. Services require compatible 2G GSM/GPR\
S cellular network provided by AT&T. 2G cellular 
network not available in all areas and/or available at all times. Cellul\
ar technology is evolving, and changes to cellular networks 
provided by independent companies are not within Infiniti’s control. \
 AT&T has announced that on December 31, 2016, AT&T 
will terminate 2G network availability. AT&T has advised that, if purcha\
sed/leased vehicle prior to March 31, 2016, you must 
enroll by March 31, 2016 to have the services on the 2G network through \
December 31, 2016.  Like other devices that rely 
on 2G network coverage, once the 2G network is terminated, Infiniti Conn\
ection and Infiniti Connection Plus services will not 
function unless equipment replacements, upgrades, or alternative 2G netw\
ork coverage are available at that time, which Infiniti 
cannot guarantee. Infiniti is not responsible for associated costs that \
may be required for continued operation due to cellular 
network termination (including equipment upgrades, if available, or roa\
ming charges on alternative networks). Certain vehicle 
services, including Google
® compatible services, provided by independent companies are not within Infiniti’s control and 
are subject to change without notice or liability to Infiniti and its af\
filiates and agents. Complimentary 12 month subscription 
begins on your date of purchase. Subsequently, your credit card (if on \
file) will be charged at the then current subscription 
rate and your service will continue for 1 year periods under the terms o\
f your Subscription Agreement, or until 2G coverage is 
terminated on December 31, 2016 (if equipment upgrades or roaming charg\
es are not available by that date). Text rates and/
or data usage may apply. 
For more information, refer to the “Viewing technical information (section 7)” of your Navigation System Owner’s Manual.
