SOFTWARE UPDATES

Note: In certain cases, the vehicle informs the user before an update, and outlines any preconditions the user must follow to make sure vehicle operation following the update. These can include requirements to drive the vehicle shortly after an update has been applied.

The vehicle may support the download and installation of over-the-air software updates. Over-the-air software allows certain components of the vehicle to be kept up to date without the need to visit a retailer/authorized repairer.

The ability to perform an update is simple and intuitive from within the vehicle's infotainment system.

When a new software update is available, and depending on internet connectivity, the vehicle automatically begins the download process with no interruption to the vehicle usage. On completion of the download, a notification displays on the touchscreen asking to begin the installation process.

Note: Depending on the specification of the vehicle, software downloads may be requested to be done manually.

Follow the on-screen prompt to start the installation process or schedule for a preferred time. A preferred time can be set via Vehicle and Software Updates menus in the touchscreen.

Note: During installation the user can access the vehicle at any time, but it will not be able to start the vehicle.

Upon successful completion of the update, an on-screen notification is displayed.

Following the update, the current software version information is visible within the vehicle's infotainment system.

Note: An update process can take up to an hour to complete.

To complete a software update observe the following conditions:

• The vehicle has to be locked and alarmed to start the installation process.

Note: Once the installation is initiated, the vehicle may still be accessed, however it will not be possible to start the vehicle.

• The vehicle has to be parked and stationary.
• The new software must be successfully downloaded to the vehicle.
