Instruction on how to set up Apple CarPlay®

Ready to get started using these features on your Frisco drives? Here are our step-by-step instructions on how to connect Apple CarPlay®:

1. First, make sure that your INEOS Grenadier supports Apple CarPlay®. Also, be sure you are in an area where the Apple CarPlay® technology will work because CarPlay® is not available in every region.
2. Start your vehicle, then check to see if Siri is on.
3. Connect your iPhone to your INEOS Grenadier vehicle in one of two ways:
1. If your vehicle supports CarPlay® via a USB cable, go ahead and plug your iPhone into the USB port in your vehicle. The USB port may be labeled with a CarPlay® or smartphone icon.
2. If you have a vehicle that supports wireless Apple CarPlay®, press and hold the voice-command button on the steering wheel. Be sure your radio is either in Bluetooth® or wireless mode. On your iPhone, go to Settings > General > CarPlay®, then tap available “cars”, and select your vehicle. Refer to your owner manual for additional information.
