8. About network usage
The vehicle system uses the mobile phone's network. Traffic costs refer to the connected network. For wireless CarPlay, connect the mobile phone's Bluetooth for the first time and keep it on. After successful CarPlay connection, Bluetooth disconnects, and the system enters the WIFI authentication channel. Ensure the mobile phone's WIFI is turned on but do not manually connect to the local system's WIFI network. CarPlay identifies the hotspot and transmits to the car display. For wired connection, plug in the mobile phone data cable.
