Android Auto™ is a feature of your
Uconnect system, and your Android™
6.0 or higher powered smartphone
with a data plan, that allows you to
project your smartphone and a
number of its apps onto the touchscreen radio display.
Android Auto™ brings you useful information, and
organizes it into simple cards that appear just when
they are needed. Android Auto™ can be used with
speech technology, the steering wheel controls, the
knobs and buttons on your radio faceplate, and the
radio display’s touchscreen to control many of your
apps. To use Android Auto™, perform the following
procedure:

NOTE:Feature availability depends on your carrier and
mobile phone manufacturer. Some Android Auto™
features may or may not be available in every
region and/or language.
1. Download the Android Auto™ app from the
Google Play store on your Android™-powered
smartphone.

2. Connect your Android™-powered smartphone to one of the media USB ports in your vehicle.
If the Android Auto™ app was not downloaded,
the first time you plug your device in the app
begins to download. Your vehicle should be in
PARK the first time you use the app.
NOTE:Be sure to use the factory-provided USB cable that
came with your phone, as aftermarket cables may
not work.

area with cellular coverage. Android Auto™ may

changes to the Android Auto™ icon.

launch it by pressing the Android Auto™ icon on the
touchscreen.

Uconnect system, the following features can be

APPLE CARPLAY®
Use this QR code to access your
digital experience.

Uconnect works seamlessly with
Apple CarPlay®, 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.

CarPlay® features may or may not be available in
every region and/or language. To use Apple CarPlay®, make sure you are using

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 Lightning cable
that came with your phone, as aftermarket cables
may not work.
2. Once the device is connected and recognized, the Phone icon on the drag & drop menu bar
changes to the Apple CarPlay® Icon.
NOTE:Apple CarPlay® is set to launch immediately. You
can also launch it by pressing the Apple CarPlay®
icon on the touchscreen.
