Find the answers to our most frequently asked questions about Jaguar infotainment and our connected services.
How do I configure/edit the customisable homescreen?
To add a shortcut/widget press and hold your finger down on an empty part of the homescreen. To move a shortcut/widget simply tap on the edit icon at the bottom of the Touchscreen. Tap on + to select the area you would like to place the new shortcut/widget.
To delete a shortcut/widget, drag it to the bottom of the Touchscreen where a large delete bar will appear.
To move a shortcut/widget between homescreens, drag it to the side of the screen – at this point the next/previous homescreen is shown. Release pressure on the shortcut/widget when in the desired position.
Scalable shortcuts/widgets can be resized by clicking on the resize icon shown in lower right corner of the shortcut/widget in edit mode.
Please note that you can only configure/edit the customisable homescreen(s) when your vehicle is stationary.
Why can’t I always resize the widgets/shortcuts on the customisable homescreen?
Not all shortcuts/widgets can be resized, and others may have limited resizing options. This is to ensure that the function of the shortcut/widget is never impacted – for example, by making it too small.
I've created my own homescreen – can I make this the default homescreen?
Yes, it’s possible to set up your home pages so you default back there every time you press the home button. Go to settings > Home settings
Pressing the home button once will return you to your default homescreen. Pressing the home button twice allows you to preview all pages including the extra features screen. This function makes accessing specific pages much quicker once multiple home pages have been added.
How many homescreens can I create?
You can create up to 4 new homescreens in addition to the factory set homescreen.
Can I customise the factory set homescreen?
No, it’s not possible to customise this page.
Can I use my own wallpaper?
At this time you can only select from pre-installed wallpaper designs.
What’s the function of the small square icons inside each quadrant on the homescreen?
The small square icon placed to the side of the main feature panels, provides a shortcut to a specific feature. For example, your voicemail, seat controls, set/cancel navigation guidance, play/pause etc., depending on the media source you’re using.
Which functions can be operated with the steering wheel controls?
Depending on your vehicle’s specification, the following Touch Pro features can be operated via the steering wheel:
Why isn't there an option to change the time setting?
The time is automatically synced to GPS satellites based on your vehicle’s current position. Therefore as you drive between time zones or GMT Daylight Saving Time changes, the system will automatically update.
Depending on what feature I’m using, clicking on the Settings button brings up different options – why is this?
We wanted to provide easier access to general settings as well as quicker access to some more commonly used settings like display and audio. For this reason, a settings icon (two gears) has been placed at the bottom of the Touchscreen in every main feature. Tapping this button displays the settings screen for this feature.
At the top one large button dynamically changes according to the feature in use at the time. For example, if you’re using the Navigation feature, Navigation settings will be displayed. At the bottom there are controls to override the automatic brightness of the Touchscreen or to turn it off completely. The two large buttons in the lower section provide access to All settings and Audio settings.
The ‘back’ key doesn’t always return me to my last used feature/screen, why is this?
To help you navigate with fewer steps, Touch Pro uses a hierarchical logic for the ‘back’ key rather than historical. It passes you back through the levels of the system, rather than taking you back to your last used feature.
How many TV/Radio favourites can I access directly from the cluster menu with the steering wheel controls?
Your first 14 favourites can be selected from the virtual instrument display. If the favourite you want is not available, you can reorder the list once your vehicle is stationary.
How can I change which information is shown in the multi-tasking panel?
Swipe up or down on any panel to switch between the following:
The massage seats turn on automatically, how can I stop this?
You may have accidently enabled automatic activation of the massage function. Go to Settings > All settings > Features > Seats > Auto massage.
How long does the massage programme run for?
A full massage cycle lasts for 10 minutes.
Which features can I control with the new Voice Recognition System?
Jaguar’s Voice Recognition System allows safer access to your media and phone systems. To activate voice recognition, press the voice control button on the steering wheel.
Why doesn’t the Voice Recognition System recognise certain radio stations?
This can happen when a number of radio stations share a similar name. In this case the system will display a list of possible stations to choose from. Simply tap the name of your station or read out the line number.
Alternatively, you could try saying the full station name. You can also create voice tags for all of your favourite stations.
Why can't I use the Voice Recognition System to control the climate?
Jaguar’s voice recognition system was designed to help eliminate tasks that would otherwise require multiple steps. In most cases controlling the climate requires a single button press – voice control would be more complicated for this interaction.
Can I change the language of the Voice Recognition System?
The voice language is set based on the system language. To select a different language for the Voice Recognition System, simply choose a different system language from the vehicle settings menu.
The settings for voice recognition show controls for confirmation and feedback, what are these?
With ‘voice command confirmations’ enabled, the Voice Recognition System confirms your voice request by repeating the instruction. For example, after saying ‘Call home’ the system says ‘Calling home’. Disabling this speeds up the time in which the system is able to carry out the task. With ‘voice feedback’ enabled, the system prompts you on what to say next. Again, disabling this function once you have become accustomed to the system will shorten the interaction time. Please note that even after you’ve disabled ’voice feedback’, the system may still require further input from you in certain situations.
After reversing the vehicle, then driving forwards, the Park Distance Control screen pops up on the Touchscreen – how can I hide it?
To temporarily minimise the window but retain audible alerts – tap the cross in the upper corner of the Park Distance Control window.
To completely disable the Park Distance Control, tap the Park Distance Control button. Depending on your vehicle this will either be in the bottom of the Touchscreen or in the overhead console.
Once your vehicle’s speed increases beyond 11mph/ 16km/h Park Distance Control will be disabled automatically.
Why does the rear camera always show when I select Reverse – why not display 360 degree camera view if that was my last used option?
This is for safety reasons. The rear camera’s angle of view is far wider when in operation as a single camera view. Rear camera view is also more effective at alerting you to approaching traffic just out of view.
What is my driving score?
In some cases it’s possible to achieve a high driving score but have a lower MPG / km/l – for example when driving in heavy traffic. If your driving score was 100%, you have achieved the most efficient use of fuel for the journey. Whereas a driving score of 50% indicates that you could have achieved significantly better fuel economy by adopting a different driving style.
Why do I have a high percentage driving score, but poor fuel consumption?
In some cases it’s possible to achieve a high driving score but have a lower MPG / km/l – for example when driving in heavy traffic. If your driving score was 100%, you have achieved the most efficient use of fuel for the journey. Whereas a driving score of 50% indicates that you could have achieved significantly better fuel economy by adopting a different driving style.
FAQs include details of how to update your SD card. If you have a different query please contact a retailer for support on our older systems.
What is Map Updater?
The Map Updater is a software tool for PC and Mac. It is used for downloading new map data and related content for the Navigation system.
Where is the SD Card?
The Map SD Card should be in the SD Card slot of the vehicle. Please refer to the vehicle handbook for the exact location of the slot.
Why is the Map Updater not detecting my SD Card?
The Map Updater only recognises a valid SD Card designed for use with the Navigation system. Any other SD Cards will not be detected. If the SD Card is damaged or the data has been changed in any form without the use of Map Updater, it could result in the SD Card being unrecognised. You may also want to check if the SD Card slot on your PC or Mac is working correctly.
How can I check the availability of any Map Updates?
Use the Map SD Card with the Map Updater to check for available updates. The Map Updater automatically recognises available updates for the detected SD Card and offers them for download and install.
Is my Map Updater up to date?
The Map Updater automatically checks for app updates every time it is launched.
Why is my VIN shown in the Map Updater?
Your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is a unique identifier assigned to every vehicle produced. Your VIN can be located on a plate, visible through the base of the windscreen, on the left hand side of the vehicle. The Map Updater uses your VIN to authorise a non-transferable licence for the use of maps on your vehicle during the activation process.
Which operating systems does the Map Updater support?
The Map Updater currently supports Microsoft Windows version 7, 8 and 10 and Mac OS X 10.8 onwards.
Can I store my own personal data on the SD Card?
The Map SD Card is supplied only for use with the Navigation system. The card should not be used for storing any other data. Any changes to the SD Card's content must be carried out only through the Map Updater. Storing other data on the SD Card or making unauthorised changes to data on the SD Card could cause problems with your Navigation system and may invalidate your vehicle warranty.
Why is my vehicle not recognising the SD Card?
If your Map SD Card is not recognised, please ensure that the SD Card is in the unlocked state (small switch on the side of the SD card) and inserted properly in the SD Card slot in the vehicle. If it is inserted correctly, please switch off the ignition, close all doors of the vehicle and lock the vehicle for 2 minutes before restarting the vehicle. If the SD Card is still not recognised, please note any error message that your vehicle is displaying, and contact your Retailer for further assistance.
Why are some of the options greyed out?
The Map Updater automatically recognises the contents of the connected SD Card. The availability of certain buttons and/or features may be linked to the contents of the SD Card.
Why is no VIN linked to the SD Card?
This message indicates that the Map Updater could not find a Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on the card. Please contact your Retailer.
Are the older maps deleted on a new install?
Yes, newer maps delete and replace the older version of maps.
Can I cancel a download and install in progress?
No, the Download and Install process must complete fully to maintain consistency and validity of the map contents on the SD Card. Please do not close the Map Updater or remove the SD Card while Download and Install is in progress.
What do I do if I have lost, broken or damaged my SD Card?
You will need to order a new SD Card. Please contact your Retailer for further assistance.
Do you have a contact centre for support?
Please contact your local Retailer for further assistance
In the Radio feature, are ‘Favourites’ similar to pre-sets?
Yes, your radio’s ‘Favourites’ provide a single list of all your favourite radio stations regardless of band e.g. FM, AM DAB – making it easy to navigate to your favourite station. (Previous systems required you to switch radio bands before selecting the pre-set.)
You can also add your favourite radio stations as a shortcut on one of your customised homescreens.
Alternatively press the voice recognition button on the steering wheel and use a voice command to find the station.
How do I add a Radio station to my Favourites?
From the ‘Now playing’ screen, or in the radio station ‘Find list’, tap the star icon. When the star changes from an outline to a solid icon, the station has been added as a Favourite. Stations are listed in the order you add them.
Can I change the order of my Favourites list?
Yes. Press the edit icon at the bottom of the screen, and then tap and drag the station to a new position in the list. (This can only be done when your vehicle is stationary.)
How do I remove a station from my Favourites list?
Tap on the star icon – once it reverts back to an outline that station will no longer be listed as a Favourite.
How do I switch between radio stations when I’m in Media?
When in Media you can swipe left/right across the centre of the Touchscreen to change radio stations, TV channels or the track that’s playing.
How are FM stations organised in the media library?
When you select the ‘Find’ option from the ‘Now Playing’ radio screen it will list all available FM stations by frequency. However, if you prefer to reorder the list by station name, you can change this in Radio Settings.
How many TV/Radio favourites can I access directly from the cluster menu with the steering wheel controls?
Your first 14 favourites can be selected from the virtual instrument display. If the favourite you want is not available, you can reorder the list once your vehicle is stationary.
What capacity USB sticks can be used?
Up to 128GB.
Please note that before any USB stick can be used you will need to reformat it as FAT32. Please make sure you save any data on the USB stick as reformatting will erase all data.
Can I use portable media storage drives?
We don’t recommend it as the power consumption for these drives varies significantly.
Which media formats are supported for playback of music and video?
Touch Pro supports a wide range of audio and video formats including:
Audio formats: AAC, Dolby, DTS, FLAC, MPEG 1, 2, 3, WMA, PCM, WAV, Apple Lossless
Video formats: AVI, DV, 1, 2, 4 including DivX, Xvid and QuickTime, H.263, H.264, WMV, MKV
Is USB 3.0 supported?
Yes.
Can I view more than one TV channel in my vehicle?
Depending on your vehicle’s specification and the reception quality, it may be possible to view up to three channels simultaneously.
Multiple TV antennas located in the vehicle’s architecture make it possible to view one channel on the left rear screen, a second on the right rear screen, and a third on the front Touchscreen. However the front Touchscreen is only viewable if the vehicle is stationary – once the vehicle is moving only the audio will play.
When one TV channel is being viewed, the signal from multiple antennas combines to help provide a stronger signal and improve picture quality.
When I insert a DVD into the drive slot, why doesn’t it play automatically?
To avoid interrupting the media source that’s currently playing. This function is especially useful for vehicles equipped with a Rear Seat Entertainment system. In this case, to avoid disturbing other passengers, the DVD may be played on the rear screens with the audio played over the wireless headphones.
Can I control and monitor content on the rear screens from the front of the vehicle?
Yes, select the media playing screen from the front Touchscreen and tap ‘rear media’. You can now see what each screen is currently playing.
From this screen, the front passenger can also change media sources and/or channels/stations/tracks, depending on the source in use.
The driver can also choose to listen to the same audio as the Rear Seat Entertainment over the cabin audio. At this point the rear passengers will have full control of the cabin audio volume.
Please note that only front or rear passengers can have access to the volume control at one time. It’s not possible for the volume to be adjusted from both the rear and front of the vehicle simultaneously.
What features are available in the new Rear Seat Entertainment system?
The Rear Seat Entertainment system features include the following:
In the rear media ‘supervisor’ screen, what is the function of the lock button?
This locks the remote control and prevents users in the rear of the vehicle from changing the channel or volume. This function can be particularly useful when you’re carrying young children in your vehicle.
Can I mute/adjust the cabin audio volume from the rear of the vehicle?
If audio is playing over the vehicle’s sound system, rear passengers can be provided with control of the cabin audio. The remote control unit can then be used to adjust or mute the volume if required.
When listening to rear media using the vehicle’s wireless headphones, the volume control is located on the side of the headphones.
Can I buy InControl Apps for my current vehicle?
Currently it is only possible to have InControl Apps on a new vehicle. InControl Apps is selected when the vehicle is ordered, as the hardware is fitted at the factory.
I have purchased a used Jaguar which has InControl Apps fitted. Am I able to connect my smartphone?
Yes. Simply install InControl Apps on your smartphone and the InControl Apps feature will be wholly available.
Can I download apps available for other regions?
By changing your region in the Options tab of the smartphone app you will be able to see apps available to users in other regions. You will only be able to download these apps if they are also available in your region. Note: app availability does not guarantee that your language preferences will be available.
How much does InControl Apps cost?
There is a one off cost for the InControl Apps system as hardware must be fitted at the factory. Check with your local Retailer for the cost. The InControl App is available free of charge on both Google Play and the Apple App Store. Some 3rd party apps may require a purchase.
Why aren't all my apps available on InControl Apps?
Only apps that have been through Jaguar's approval process are available to use with InControl Apps.
I've updated my phone and now InControl Apps doesn't work.
Every effort is made to ensure that InControl Apps is compatible with the latest operating systems. Try reinstalling the smartphone app on your device.
Does InControl Apps use Mobile Data?
Yes. It's recommended that any smartphone using InControl Apps has a suitable mobile data plan.
When I use voice interaction, why does my cluster show a phone call in progress?
When you start a voice session, your phone will trigger a virtual phone call (no charge applies) to gain access to the in-vehicle microphones.
Is it possible to have InControl Apps on more than one smartphone?
Yes. Any compatible smartphone with InControl Apps installed will be able to connect to the Touchscreen. Though only one device can be connected at any one time.
What happens if there is no data connection?
When using InControl services in an area of poor network coverage (e.g. remote, rural areas) the apps will display a pop-up when there is no available data connection for a requested function.
Can I have InControl Apps on any Jaguar vehicle?
InControl Apps must be selected when ordering your vehicle as hardware must be fitted at the factory. Check with your local Retailer for vehicle availability.
How do I install a compatible app?
Open InControl Apps on your smartphone and scroll through the 'Not installed apps' list until you find the app you wish to install. Depending on your device, selecting this app will take you to Google Play or the Apple App Store. Download and install as normal. The new app icon will appear in the "installed" section when you next connect your smartphone to your vehicle.
Do I have to create an account to use some apps?
It is strongly recommended that upon downloading any third party application from the Google Play or Apple App Store, that the app is opened on the handset first prior to connection to the vehicle. The app may have permissions that need to be approved or an account may need to be created before it can be used in the vehicle.
When using InControl Apps, why is the audio played through my Android phone’s speaker rather than the vehicle’s sound system?
Android phones must be connected to Touch Pro via Bluetooth as well as USB.
InControl Apps is installed on my device but it won't connect to the vehicle
When connecting your phone to the vehicle ensure your device is unlocked, cases or screen covers are not closed (some can auto lock the phone when closed), that all open apps have been closed and the phone is connected to the dedicated InControl Apps USB port (labelled). If this fails to solve the problem, check your device is compatible by visiting the compatibility site at www.landrover.com.
Do I need to start the app before connecting to the vehicle?
No, for iPhone if the app is not already running, you will be given a phone prompt to allow the app to open. If using an Android phone, you can select 'Always Allow' when prompted which will forego all future prompts. Remember, your phone will need to be unlocked when connecting. There should be no need for further phone interaction once your device is connected.
My phone is connected and I can see the apps but there's no audio coming through the cabin speakers. How do I connect to Bluetooth?
When connecting a phone, a prompt will appear on the Touchscreen for "view" and "Bluetooth Settings". In order to access audio through InControl Apps, your device will need to be connected to the vehicle via Bluetooth. By selecting "Bluetooth Settings", you will then be able to follow the prompts to pair your phone. On subsequent connection the prompt for "Bluetooth Settings" will be replaced by "View and Listen" when your phone is Bluetooth paired but not the active audio source. If you still cannot hear any sound ensure your smartphone is paired with the vehicle by following the steps located on the owners section of jaguar.co.uk. Also make sure the audio volume on the phone and vehicle is turned up.
Will InControl Apps still work when the vehicle is in motion?
For safety reasons, some aspects of InControl Apps are reduced or disabled when the vehicle is moving.
I made a phone call and I had to unlock my iPhone before I could use InControl Apps again. Why?
This is an Apple security feature. When you make a phone call longer than the "Auto-Lock" setting, the phone will lock even when connected to InControl Apps. You can set your iPhone to never "Auto-Lock" by entering: Settings> General > Auto-Lock and selecting "Never". N.B. The "Never" Auto-Lock Setting may not be available in some circumstances e.g. if your iPhone has corporate administrator settings that require a pin code to unlock.
When I connect my phone to the vehicle, I always get a popup on the device to allow the connection. How do I stop this from happening?
On iPhone, this can be avoided by pressing the home button before connecting to InControl Apps. On Android devices, the prompt contains a check-box to avoid future prompts on connections to the vehicle.
Where should I stow my device when connected to InControl Apps?
Stowage of your device should be near to the dedicated InControl Apps USB port.
I have updated to iOS 9, why do I now have to go through an approval process before I can use a new app in the vehicle?
This is a new security feature introduced by Apple for the iOS 9 update. All third party apps, except the three virtual apps - Calendar, Music and Contacts, will now require approval. The process is described in detail here.
What happens if I don’t update to iOS 9?
This approval process is for any iPhones running iOS 9. If you have not updated to iOS 9, you will not need to approve each app before use. However we still recommend that you set up the app before you connect to the vehicle.
Please note that once updated, a phone cannot restore a previous iOS version.
Are tablet devices supported?
Not at this time.
Should I update my iPhone Software?
InControl Apps works best with the latest operating software (Apple iOS 8+).
Why can’t I switch the map view to north-up?
Based on user research, we designed Touch Pro’s navigation system around direction-up view. The vast majority of users prefer this view, because it provides an easier at-a-glance interpretation of the road as it unfolds ahead. We felt that aligning other map views to direction-up eliminated any potential confusion.
Direction-up view can be combined with north-up to display your current position and destination in context of the remaining route or complete route. Additionally, searches are always shown in north-up view to provide the context of your current location to the destination. A temporary north-up option is also available when browsing the map.
How do I select 3D Map View in the virtual instrument display?
Press the Menu button on the steering wheel to bring up the Settings menu. Then select the Display Settings menu and tap ‘maps’. If the Display Settings menu is not shown, scroll through the sub menus until you see the ‘map’ option – this should already be highlighted. Click on OK to select. Once the map appears in the virtual instrument display, close the menu by holding down the left select button.
Why does the virtual instrument display default back to instrument dial view between journeys?
To keep you fully up-to-date with your vehicle’s status regarding fuel, oil levels and any other important notifications.
Why does the Navigation map stop moving when I use the pinch to zoom gesture?
As soon as you interact with the map it changes to ‘Explore’ mode, which allows you to locate places and check the route or traffic in the local area etc. ‘Explore’ mode also includes an option to view the map in ‘north-up’ mode.
The map will automatically return to ‘guidance’ mode after 60 seconds or when you press the back key or tap the navigation arrow. Map View is based on the last used 2D, 3D or satellite map option.
Occasionally the speed limit information displayed on the Navigation system does not match that shown on the actual road signs, why is this?
The speed limits shown are based on the information available when the on-board map database was compiled.
While every effort is taken to provide accurate information, the responsibility for obeying traffic regulations remains firmly with the driver.
How many waypoints can I create along a route?
You can create up to 10 waypoints along the route including your destination. These are sequenced in the order you add them. To reorder your waypoints, simply tap the menu icon in the lower corner of the map, and select Edit.
Why is the homescreen showing an estimated time of arrival (ETA) for a destination that I haven’t selected?
If you’ve enabled ‘Commutes’ in the Navigation Settings menu, the destination will be a ‘commute’ learnt from your current location and time of day. The Navigation system predicts that this may be your potential destination and the ETA corresponds to this. With commutes enabled, the system can provide your ETA even if you haven’t set a destination – keeping you informed about any potential issues on your preferred route. If you sometimes drive an alternative route to the same destination, the system will learn this too. When more than one route has been learnt for the same destination, the system displays the quickest route. When you begin your journey it will display as a line on the map, but will not read out turn-by-turn instructions – it assumes you know the route. If you deviate from your current route, and from any other routes you’ve previously taken to this destination – the system will ask if you would like to switch to turn-by-turn guidance. This can be especially useful if you’re in an unfamiliar location.
How many journeys do I need to make to the same destination before the Commute feature learns the journey?
It generally requires two journeys to the same destination from the same start point before a ‘commute’ is learnt. The current time must also be within +/- 1 hour of the learnt start time.
How do I set a destination?
There are a number of different ways to set a destination with Touch Pro.
1. To access the ‘Set Destination’ option screen from the homescreen, tap the ‘Set Destination’ icon on the navigation tile. This will take you directly to the search screen where you can enter a postcode, address or place name in a single line.
2. Tap the Navigation icon at the bottom of the Touchscreen twice. This provides a shortcut to the Destination settings screen. From here you can select one of three options, Address entry (including postcode), Search or Destinations. Destinations can be Home, Recent destinations, Favourite destinations, Shared destinations or Commutes.
3. When a commute is available it will be displayed on the homescreen navigation tile. If more than one commute is available based on your current location and time of day, it will display ‘commutes available’. Tapping on the navigation tile takes you directly to a list of the available commutes.
4. Alternatively, select a destination from the map screen, and tap the menu button in the bottom corner of the map. Again the three destination options, Address, Search and Destinations will be shown.
5. You can also send places or destinations to your vehicle via the Route Planner smartphone app or website. A place ‘saved’ in the Route Planner will appear in your favourite destinations once your vehicle has connected to the Internet and synched the destinations. If Navigation is open on the screen when a new destination is received from the Route Planner, the destination will appear as a pop-up panel. Tapping ‘use now’ will confirm the destination in the in-car navigation system. Places set as a destination via the Route Planner appear in recent destinations. *Market dependent, only available with Remote app.
Why hasn’t the destination I sent to my vehicle appeared on the in-vehicle Navigation system?
Destinations can only be received when the vehicle has a suitable data connection. In some cases, even though the system may be shown as connected, the mobile network could be oversubscribed, preventing the system from receiving the destination. Destinations received by the vehicle will be shown only when you are exploring the system’s Navigation function. The destination will then be shown either as a route to the side of the Touchscreen or a confirmation pop-up. If the destination is received by the vehicle when you are using a feature other than Navigation, the destination can be retrieved from recent destinations.
How can I view alternative routes?
Once you’ve selected a destination, tap on ‘Route options’ to view the default route (at the top of the list) and up to two alternative routes. Select your preferred route and tap start to commence guidance.
How do I use the destination search function?
Simply enter a place, postcode or address in the search box. Even if you spell the name/address incorrectly, the search function will usually recognise the location.
If your vehicle has a data connection, the search will access the latest information in the cloud as well as your vehicle’s on-board database. *Market dependent.
What’s the most efficient way to search for a destination?
To save time, press the hide keyboard icon after typing the first 3-4 letters. This will display a list of possible locations. As you scroll through the list, map view automatically updates so you can easily see the location in the context of your route, destination or current position.
Click on the desired destination to see a route preview on the map. If your vehicle has a data connection, street level imagery for the location will also be shown when available.
Tapping on the full screen icon in the corner of the picture enlarges the street level image. Panning the image allows you to rotate through 360 degrees. Tapping on ‘…’ provides further information including address details, and recently posted reviews if available. Depending on your destination, a star rating may be displayed based on reviews from sites like TripAdvisor. *Market dependent.
If the destination is a vehicle park – and the vehicle park supports this information – an additional information screen may also include space availability. *Market dependent.
When Navigation Guidance is active, clicking to the side of the search box allows you search for another location near your destination – for example, a restaurant for lunch. *Market dependent.
Why does the fuel-warning icon sometimes appear when I set a destination?
To warn you that you don’t have enough fuel to complete your journey without a fuel stop.
To easily build a fuel stop into your journey, tap on the fuel-warning icon. Doing this will display filling stations along your route close to point you will need to refuel – it will also provide a more accurate estimated time of arrival (ETA).
Once I’ve parked my vehicle, how can I continue the journey from my smartphone?
Open the Route Planner on your Apple or Android smartphone. As long as you’re more than 30 metres from the destination you originally set – and you didn’t cancel guidance before exiting your vehicle – the destination will be synced to your smartphone via the cloud. Depending on your route settings, the app will guide you to your destination by foot or public transport. *Market dependent, only available with Remote app.
At times the companion app may take up to 30 seconds to refresh and sync destinations and your vehicle’s position from the cloud. Please don’t close and re-launch the app during this time – this may force a re-sync of your destination and your vehicle’s position.
Please note that if you’re in a location with poor network coverage, your destination may not sync to the Route Planner App.
If I’m using the Navigation system in guidance mode and I search for a new destination, why doesn’t the system allow me to replace my current destination with the new one searched?
We decided that providing a ‘replace current destination’ option - given the usage rate of this scenario – would have added unhelpful additional complexity. The most straightforward way to enter a new destination is to cancel guidance from the Navigation menu and set a new destination
When entering an address, why is it always necessary to type the town before entering the street?
To make it quicker for you to find the street you’re looking for. The same street name is often found in multiple towns – by entering the town first, your list of possible street options is reduced.
However, it is possible to enter places or addresses in a single line using the Search option.
How do I share my estimated time of arrival (ETA)?
Once your vehicle has connected to the Internet and you’ve signed into your Navigation Account, tap on the box at the bottom of the Touchscreen where ETA information is shown. Select which recipients you’d like to share your ETA with by SMS (subject to market availability) text or email, and chose whether you’d like to send updates every 5, 10 or 20 minutes. *Market dependent, only available with Remote app.
Your contacts can be stored via navigation settings or via this screen. The system will automatically save any new contacts, making it even quicker to share your ETA next time you sign in.
Can I use the contacts list from my connected smartphone to share my estimated time of arrival (ETA)?
Our objective is to make sharing your ETA as easy as possible, and we felt that interfacing with your phone’s contacts created additional steps and search criteria. As this feature will generally be used with a small group of people on a regular basis, we concluded that pre-programming a limited set of email and/or phone numbers would make this function far simpler to use.
Do I need to enter my phone number or email address to send ETA/place/location notifications?

How does the Remote Climate feature work?
Depending on your vehicle specifications and markets, the Remote Premium smartphone app will provide you with the ability to pre-condition your vehicle either via the Engine Start function or via the Fuel Fired Heater function. If you have a vehicle with an automatic transmission, the engine will be used to pre-condition the vehicle. You can select a target temperature and will then be able to remotely start the engine by pressing the "Engine Start" button and entering your InControl PIN on the Remote Climate screen of the Remote Premium smartphone app. Please note that some countries may prohibit or restrict the use of the remote engine start function. You must make yourself aware of, and you must comply with, all local laws in each country in which you intend to use or are using the remote Engine Start function. You can access our InControl T&Cs and privacy policy below our Connect FAQs. If you have a vehicle with manual transmission, and the vehicle is fitted with the Park Heat option, the vehicle will be pre-conditioned using the fuel fired heater. You will be able to pre-condition the vehicle by pressing the "Start" button and entering your InControl PIN on the Remote Climate screen of the Remote Premium smartphone app. The vehicle will then automatically decide whether to heat or vent depending on the current temperature. Remote Climate will only work using the Fuel Fired Heater if the vehicle is equipped with the Park Heat option, which you need to purchase separately. To conserve battery power certain non-essential Remote Premium features will shut down if the vehicle is not driven for 4 days (e.g. if you go on holiday). The Remote Premium smartphone app features will be automatically reactivated the next time the vehicle is driven. The Wake Up feature allows you to schedule a wake up of these features on your vehicle. Remote Premium can be programmed to power up on a date set by you through the Vehicle Wake Up screen of the Remote Premium smartphone app. All the Remote Premium features will be operational from this specific date.
Why are some/all of the Remote Premium feature buttons greyed out on my version of the Remote Premium smartphone app?

Why does the climate function show a different temperature than the one I set up using the Remote smartphone app?
Once you start the car after using the Remote Climate function from the Remote smartphone app, the climate settings will default back to the temperature set up during the last car cycle, so the temperature on the car display will not sync with the app value.
