SERVICE INFORMATION

This procedure is used for two purposes:

  1. Check the current Infiniti InTouch Software version.
  2. If needed, update the Infiniti InTouch software to the newest version.

Software updates may be required for the following reasons:

  • Delivery of new features, enhancements, or improvements
  • Update replacement components to the newest version

What Is Included In This Software Update: 

  • Updates operating system to current production level
  • Improves overall system performance
  • Addresses or improves specific system issues, including, but not limited to:
    • iPod music does not restart when reconnecting USB cable
    • Cannot access "xL" listed SiriusXM stations
    • "Sandbox has stopped unexpectedly" message
    • Unavailable App icons appear in App Garage
    • Left side scroll/slider function is not available while driving
    • Steering wheel volume control is slow to adjust
  • Makes the SiriusXM Travel Link feature available, which includes: Weather information, fuel price information, sports scores, stock ticker, movie listings
    NOTE: As previously announced, Infiniti InTouch Apps will be available later this Fall. This software update configures the InTouch system so that these Apps can properly link to it. Without this update, these Apps will not link to Infiniti InTouch even after the Apps are available.

Software updates are intended to update the operating system to current production, improve system performance, and address any system issues. Infiniti continues to work on system enhancements and improvements.

As with many new advanced technology devices, the Infiniti InTouch system is designed to allow for future software updates, installed by Infiniti dealers, when released by Infiniti. The system was intentionally designed in this manner to allow for the addition of new features and enhancements to the operating system as they become available.
