Android Auto SYSTEM LIMITA-
TIONS
For all features of Android Auto to operate
correctly, it is necessary to have a compa-
tible Android phone, a cellular connection
and a data plan.
When Android Auto 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 should also be confirmed that the latest
version of both Android OS and the Android
Auto App are installed on the cellular phone.
Functionality of Android Auto may decrease
or be lost if there are changes to operating
systems, hardware, software or other tech-
nologies central to supporting the system
that are outside of INFINITI’s control. Chan-
ging government regulations may also affect
the operation of Android Auto.
