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 mediaUSB 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, the system will display the CarPlay home screen.
Apple CarPlay should automatically
launch, but if it does not launch automati-
cally, refer to the Uconnect Owner’s
Manual Supplement for the procedure to enable the feature “AutoShow.” You can
also launch it by pressing the CarPlay
located in the “Apps” menu. If you use
Apple CarPlay frequently you can move
the app to the menu bar at the bottom of
the touchscreen. Press the “Apps” button
and locate the CarPlay app; then press
and drag the selected App to replace an
existing shortcut in the main menu bar.
Once CarPlay is up and running on your
Uconnect radio, the following features can be
utilized using your iPhone’s data plan:
• Phone
• Music
• Messages • Maps
NOTE:
To use CarPlay make sure that cellular data is
turned on, and that you are in an area with
cellular coverage. Your data and cellular cov-
erage is shown on the left side of the radio
screen.
Phone
With CarPlay, press and hold the VR button
on the steering wheel to activate a Siri voice
recognition session. You can also press and
hold the Home button within CarPlay to start
talking to Siri. This will allow you to make
calls or listen to voice mail as you normally
would using Siri on your iPhone.
