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 automatically, refer to the
Uconnect Owner’s Manual Supplement for
the procedure to enable the feature “Au-
toShow.” 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.
CarPlayCarPlay Data And Cellular Coverage

NOTE:
Only temporarily pushing the VR button on
the steering wheel will launch a native VR
session, not a Siri session, and it will not
function with CarPlay.
Music
CarPlay allows you to access all your artists,
playlists, and music from iTunes. Using your
iPhone’s data plan, you can also use select
third party audio apps including music, news,
sports, podcasts and more.
Messages
Just like Phone, CarPlay allows you to use Siri
to send or reply to text messages. Siri can also
read incoming text messages, but driver’s will
not be able to read messages, as everything is
done via voice.
Maps
To use your Apple Maps for navigation on your
Uconnect system, launch CarPlay, and push
and hold the VR button on the steering wheel
to use Siri to set your desired destination.
Alternatively, choose a Nearby destination by
pressing Destinations and selecting a cat-
egory, by launching Siri from the destinations
page, or even by typing in a destination.NOTE:
• If the VR button is not held, and is only
pushed, the native Uconnect VR will
prompt you and any navigation command
said will launch the native Uconnect navi-
gation system.

• If you are using the native Uconnect navi-gation system, and you try and start a new
route using CarPlay, via voice or any other
method, a pop-up will appear asking if you
would like to switch from Uconnect naviga-
tion to iPhone navigation. A pop-up will
also appear, asking if you’d like to switch, if
an CarPlay navigation is currently in use
and you attempt to launch a native
Uconnect route. Selecting “Yes” will switch
the navigation 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 will remain
unchanged.Apps
To use a compatible app with CarPlay, you
must have the compatible app downloaded,
and you must be signed in to the app. Refer
to http://www.apple.com/ios/carplay/ (U.S.
Residents) or
https://www.apple.com/ca/ios/carplay/ (Ca-
nadian Residents) to see the latest list of
available apps for CarPlay.
