How to Connect Mobile Navigation in Chery Cars?
3 Answers
First, turn on the Bluetooth in the car and also activate the Bluetooth on your mobile phone. Similar to connecting Bluetooth between two mobile phones, simply start searching for Bluetooth devices after turning on Bluetooth. After finding the corresponding Bluetooth device, you should click to pair. You can use your mobile phone to search for the car's Bluetooth and then proceed with pairing the Bluetooth device. After locating the Bluetooth device, pairing requires entering a password. Once the password is entered and pairing is successfully displayed, you can start using it.
Connecting my Chery Tiggo 7 to mobile navigation is quite straightforward, mainly done via USB cable or Bluetooth. The USB port is located below the center console—just plug in your phone's data cable, and the system will automatically recognize it, supporting Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. If you're an Apple user, enable CarPlay after connection, and mobile maps like Amap can be projected onto the car screen, making it convenient and safe to operate. Bluetooth pairing also works—turn on your phone's Bluetooth, enter the car's settings to select and pair with the Bluetooth device, and you can then use navigation audio, though the screen won't display it. It's recommended to set it up before driving to avoid distractions on the road. Some older Chery models may require a software update first; otherwise, connection failures can occur. I often drive for travel, and this method provides accurate route guidance without draining the battery.
As a parent using a car for daily commutes, I find connecting my phone's navigation to my Chery Arrizo quite practical. The preferred method is via USB: locate the car's USB port, plug in the cable, and when prompted on the phone, enable CarPlay or Baidu CarLife. Once set up, the navigation interface appears on the car's screen, supporting voice commands like "Hey Baidu, navigate home," which is handy for trips with kids to avoid getting lost. Bluetooth is another option; after pairing, it plays navigation audio but doesn't display the route map clearly. Avoid manual adjustments while driving, ensure your phone is sufficiently charged, and newer car infotainment systems offer better compatibility. I've noticed some Chery models also support wireless connections, eliminating cable clutter but sometimes requiring a system restart if the signal weakens. Safety first: set up navigation before driving to minimize accident risks.
