Smartphone integration consists of both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and it means you can use your smartphone in a simple and safe way in the car.
The technology allows you to control the functions in your smartphone, using the voice function, the steering wheel controls or the car's touch display.
By integrating your smartphone with the car's functions, it is easier to write text messages, make calls and navigate. Smartphone integration also supports other applications that have been downloaded to your smartphone, such as Spotify.(Only available in specific markets. Sometimes requires account and subscription to the service.)
Thanks to the voice function included in Smartphone integration, you can keep fully focused on the road. The voice function helps you not only to read and write text messages, but also to call contacts in the phonebook via voice control.
To use the map application you can either enter the destination on the car's touch display or state the destination via the voice function.
