Apple CarPlay Integration
Uconnect works seamlessly with Apple Car-
Play, the smarter, more secure way to use
your iPhone in the car, and stay focused on
the road. Use your Uconnect Touchscreen
display, the vehicle's knobs and controls, and
your voice with Siri to get access to Apple
Music, Maps, Messages, and more.
To use CarPlay, make sure you are using
iPhone 5 or later, have Siri enabled in Set-
tings, ensure your iPhone is unlocked for the
very first connection only, and then use the
following procedure:
1. Connect your iPhone to one of the media
USB ports in your vehicle.
NOTE:
Be sure to use the factory-provided Light-
ning cable that came with your phone, as
aftermarket cables may not work.
2. Once the device is connected and recog-
nized, the “Phone” icon on the drag &
drop menu bar changes to the Apple Car-
Play icon. Apple CarPlay should launch,but if not, refer to the Uconnect Owner’s
Manual Supplement for the procedure to
enable the feature “AutoShow”. You can
also touch the Apple CarPlay icon on the
touchscreen to launch it.
Once CarPlay is up and running on your
Uconnect system, the following features can
be utilized using your iPhone’s data plan:
• Phone
• Music
• Messages
• Maps

you and any navigation command said
launches the built-in Uconnect navigation
system.
• If you are using the built-in Uconnect navi-
gation system, and you try and start a new
route using CarPlay, via voice or any other
method, a pop-up appears asking if you
would like to switch from Uconnect naviga-
tion to iPhone navigation. A pop-up also
appears, asking if you’d like to switch, if an
CarPlay navigation is currently in use and
you attempt to launch a built-in Uconnect
route. Selecting “Yes” switches the naviga-
tion type to the newly used method of
navigation and a route will be planned for
the new destination. If “No” is selected the
navigation type remains unchanged.
