Connecting to the Internet via Wi-Fi

The vehicle can be connected to a Wi-Fi network.

If the vehicle is parked outside a building with a Wi-Fi network, for example, or if you are sharing an Internet connection via a cellular phone, you can connect the vehicle to that network.

If you are sharing your phone's Internet connection, remember to first enable tethering (personal/portable hotspot) on the phone.

To connect the vehicle to an external Wi-Fi network:
Go to settings iCup-2037-Settings symbol at the bottom of the center display and then tap Connectivity.
Tap the Wi-Fi row to display a list of available networks. Connection is not permitted for all networks. If the network you want to connect to is not shown in the list of available networks, see the note below.
Choose a network, enter the password, and connect.

 Note

Here are the known requirements for making the Wi-Fi access points available for use with Android:

  • WPA2 with password (CCMP).
    • A password is required.
  • Not permitted/possible:
    • Network without encryption (open network).
    • WPA3.
    • WEP.
    • WPA (with TKIP).
    • WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)-enabled routers. Also applies for WPA2 connections (most home routers are WPS-enabled). If your home router has WPS functionality enabled, it will not be available due to the limited security in WPS access management. To connect to a WPA2 network with WPS, disable WPS in the router.
