CarPlay™

Introduction

“CarPlay™" is a native service available on your smartphone which enables you to use some applications on your phone from your multimedia system screen.

Note: to find out if your vehicle is compatible with the CarPlay™ service, the 1 “Smartphone Integration” function must be listed on your multimedia system’s “System” menu.

For safety reasons, carry out these operations when the vehicle is stationary.

- follow the instructions on the multifunction screen;

- press button 3.

The CarPlay™ service is launched on the multimedia system.

If the procedure described above fails, repeat the operation.

Once the CarPlay™ service is running, the lower display on the multimedia screen changes:

Note: the “CarPlay™” service will only operate if your smartphone is connected to your vehicle's USB port.

The use of USB cables recommended by the phone manufacturer are advisable for correct functioning of the application.

Once the Android Auto™ app or CarPlay™ service is activated on your multimedia system, the lower display of the multimedia screen changes:

When Android Auto™ or CarPlay™ is running, you can access your smartphone's navigation and music apps. These applications will replace similar applications integrated in R-Link which are already launched. For example, you can use either a Android Auto™/CarPlay™ navigation app or the app built into your multimedia system, but not both.

The buttons 4 inform you if the apps are being run via Android Auto™ or CarPlay™, or from the multimedia system.

When you are using Android Auto™ or CarPlay™, some multimedia system functions will continue to run in the background. For example if you start “Android Auto™” or “CarPlay™” and use the navigation on your smartphone while the radio on the multimedia system is currently playing, the radio will continue to be broadcast.

Note:

- Android Auto™ and CarPlay™ will only run if your smartphone is connected to your vehicle's USB port;

- you can configure the multimedia screen from your phone settings.

Android Auto™ and CarPlay™ functions depend on the make and model of your telephone. For further information, please refer to the manufacturer's website if there is one.

Once the “Android Auto™” application or the “CarPlay™” service is activated on your multimedia system, you can use the voice recognition button in your vehicle to control some functions of your smartphone by voice. To do this, press and hold button 5 on the steering wheel of your vehicle (for more information, refer to the section on “Using voice recognition”).
