Enable Carplay access permissions on your smartphone. Connect and pair your phone with the car's system using the original USB cable. After connection, Carplay will automatically pop up - exit this and click on GEELY. Once successfully connected, open the navigation app on your phone and enter the destination. The car's display screen will then synchronize with the phone's navigation content.
When driving my Kia KX3, I encountered the issue of how to connect to the large-screen navigation. First, I familiarized myself with the car's system. After starting the car, I tapped the 'Navigation' icon in the lower left corner of the screen, which prompted me to enter the destination address using the touch keyboard. If I wanted to connect my phone's navigation, such as Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, I had to first turn on the phone's Bluetooth, then find the 'Connect Device' option in the car screen's settings menu. After pairing, the navigation could be projected onto the large screen. Remember to regularly update the map data; sometimes it downloads automatically when the car is connected to the internet, but if there's no internet, you can manually download the map package from the official website using a USB. If the signal is weak during connection, check if the GPS antenna inside the car is loose, which can help avoid navigation lag. The overall process is quite intuitive, and after trying it a few times, it becomes easier. Connecting your phone can make the navigation more real-time.
