Android Auto — If Equipped
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.
Android Auto is a feature of your Uconnect
system, and your Android 5.0 Lollipop, or
higher, powered smartphone with a data
plan, that allows you to project your smart-
phone and a number of its apps onto the
touchscreen radio display. Android Auto au-
tomatically brings you useful information,
and organizes it into simple cards that appear
just when they are needed. Android Auto can
be used with Google's best-in-class 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
follow these steps:
1. Download the Android Auto app from the
Google Play store on your Android-
powered smartphone.

and mobile phone manufacturer. Some Apple
CarPlay features may or may not be available
in every region and/or language.

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, that 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 Light-
ning cable that came with your phone, as
aftermarket cables may not work.2. Once the device is connected, the system
displays the CarPlay home screen. Apple
CarPlay automatically launches, but if
not, refer to the Uconnect Owner’s
Manual Supplement for the procedure to

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

also read incoming text messages so you
don’t have to.

Uconnect system, launch CarPlay, and push
and hold the VR button on the steering wheel
to use Siri to set your desired destination.
