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.
NOTE:Feature availability depends on your carrier and mobile
phone manufacturer. Some Apple CarPlay® features may
or may not be available in every region and/or language.
To use Apple CarPlay®, make sure you are using iPhone®
5 or later, have Siri enabled in Settings, 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 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.

Apple CarPlay® And LTE Data Coverage
NOTE:
To use Apple CarPlay®, make sure that cellular data is
turned on, and that you are in an area with cellular

ARPLAY® TIPS AND TRICKS
Android Auto™ And Apple CarPlay® Automatic Bluetooth®
Pairing
After connecting to Android Auto™ or Apple CarPlay® for
the first time and undergoing the setup procedure, the
smartphone pairs to the Uconnect system via Bluetooth®
without any setup required every time it is within range, if
Bluetooth® is turned on.
NOTE:Apple CarPlay® uses a USB connection while Android
Auto™ uses both USB and Bluetooth® connections to
function. The connected device is unavailable to other
devices when connected using Android Auto™ or Apple
CarPlay®.
Multiple Devices Connecting To The Uconnect System —
If Equipped
It is possible to have multiple devices connected to the
Uconnect system. For example, if using Android Auto™/
Apple CarPlay®, the connected device will be used to
place hands-free phone calls or send hands-free text
messages. However, another device can also be paired to
the Uconnect system, via Bluetooth®, as an audio source,
so the passenger can stream music.
NOTE:Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ can only be launched
from the front and center console USB ports.

to measure the degree of the steering wheel relative to
zero (straight ahead) reference angle. The zero degree
reference angle measurement indicates a steering
wheel straight ahead position.
The friction circle display shows instantaneous G-Force as
a highlight and previous G-Force as dots within the circle.
The system records previous G-Force for three minutes. If
there are multiple samples at a given point, the color of
the dot will darken from blue to red. Vectors more frequent
will show in red; infrequent vectors will show in blue.
