\225For a device that is not registered to the system, > see "
Registering a device."
\225 A registered device will automatically connect to the system when you bring it near
the system. If it does not automatically connect,
> see "
Connecting a registered device ",
" Disconnecting a registered device."

operation of the vehicle, and the use of any vehicle systems, including the \
touch screen
and steering wheel controls, which take the driver's eyes, attention, and focus away from
the safe operation of the vehicle, or which are not permissible by law, should never be
used during the operation of the vehicle.
