Automatic System Updates

From this menu, you can enableautomatic updates. If you have not done so already, the system prompts you to set up a Wi-Fi connectionwhen you enable this feature.

When Wi-Fi and automatic updates are enabled, your system checks for software updates periodically. If a new version is available, it downloads at that time. Software downloads can take place for up to 30minutes after you have switched your vehicle off. The updates do not interrupt the normal use of your SYNC 3 system. If a download does not complete for any reason, the download continues where it left off at the next Wi-Fi connected opportunity. Upon activation of an update, a banner displays on the touchscreen indicating the system update. Select the icon to see more detail. This icon displays for two ignition cycles.

Available Wi-Fi Networks

You can then select your Wi-Fi network. You may have to enter the security code if the network is secured. The system confirms when it has connected to the network.
