If your vehicle is compatible with Android
To use Android Auto, you must first connect your phone to your vehicle. For applicable vehicles, ensure that your vehicle’s infotainment system software is updated, as well as the software on your smartphone.*
*Note: You can check if your vehicle is eligible for software updates, or see the progress of an update, by selecting Settings > System > Vehicle Software > Updates.
Only select phones and select vehicles support this feature. If your vehicle and phone do offer this option, work through these steps to set up a wireless connection:
On some vehicles, if you plug your phone in via USB, the system will ask if you’d like to allow a wireless connection in the future. If you agree, the next time you go for a drive, your phone will automatically connect wirelessly with Android Auto.
It depends on how your vehicle is equipped. On some models, you can use Android Auto wireless without plugging in if you have a compatible phone. On other models, your phone must be tethered by a USB cord to use Android Auto.
You can charge your phone and have Android Auto running in the background. Just plug in your phone and hit the HOME button. You can also disable Android Auto in the "Settings" menu to enable the charge-only function using the USB cord.
For older vehicle modules, the screen does not automatically launch by default. However, users can adjust their phone settings to enable or disable automatic screen launching.
In newer vehicle modules, the screen will return to its last state by default. However, users can modify their phone settings to enable/disable automatic screen launching.
The quality of the album art depends on the size of the image that is available with the song. If the image is small, it appears blurry when stretched to fit the album art window in the Now-Playing screen.
Go to the Settings menu on your vehicle's centre display and select the option to Forget the Phone Connection. On your phone, go to the Bluetooth settings and forget the vehicle connection. Restart both your phone and vehicle and follow the setup steps to repair the connection. You can also go to the Settings menu on your phone and select Android Auto. From there, you will see a list of connected vehicles. From there, you can find your vehicle name and select Forget.
When error messages occur, ensure that your phone and vehicle are updated to the latest software versions (for applicable vehicles). You can also delete and repair your phone connection.
To use navigation with Android Auto, press the Android Auto app on your centre display. From there, select your preferred navigation. If you’re in Park, you can manually enter the address on your display. If you’re driving, you can use Google Assistant to say the address out loud.
If you have tried all troubleshooting steps and the issue persists, visit a dealership for further assistance. Provide detailed information about the issue and the steps you have already taken to resolve it.
To find out if your vehicle has this feature, contact your dealer or refer to your vehicle’s equipment list. Please check your Owner’s Manual for more information about features.
