Smart Driving Guide

Smart Driving Guide

Smarter tech. Less distraction.

Smart accessories should make the cabin feel simpler, not busier. Set up navigation, charging and connected features before the drive whenever possible, keep essential information easy to glance at and keep your attention on the road.

Smart principles

Useful technology should stay in the background.

A well-planned setup reduces unnecessary interaction once the vehicle is moving. Choose clear positions for devices, manage cables and configure the essentials before departure.

01 / PREPARE

Set up before you move

Enter your destination, connect audio and arrange charging before starting the journey whenever possible. Preparation reduces the need to adjust devices while driving.

02 / POSITION

Keep the road view clear

Position accessories where they are easy to see when needed without unnecessarily obstructing the windshield, instruments, mirrors or essential vehicle controls.

03 / SIMPLIFY

Reduce cables and cabin clutter

Route charging cables so they stay away from steering, pedals, gear controls and other moving areas. A simple setup is easier to use and easier to maintain.

Connected cabin

Build the setup around the drive, not the device.

Navigation, audio and charging can work together without dominating the interior. The best setup keeps controls understandable and interaction minimal once you are moving.

Before the drive

Five minutes of setup can simplify the whole journey.

Treat your connected-car setup like any other part of preparing to drive. Configure what you need while stationary, then keep interaction to a minimum on the road.

01

Secure your phone or device

Make sure the mount is installed according to its instructions and that the device is held securely before setting off.

02

Set the destination

Enter the route before moving whenever possible. Review the first part of the journey so you are not immediately searching for directions after departure.

03

Connect power and audio

Plug in charging cables, establish Bluetooth or other supported connections and select the audio source before the drive begins.

04

Check cable routing

Keep cables clear of pedals, steering controls, gear selectors and areas where they could catch on hands, clothing or moving interior components.

05

Reduce unnecessary notifications

Use suitable device settings to limit nonessential interruptions. Follow local laws and your device's supported driving or focus features where applicable.

Smart essentials

Give every accessory a clear purpose.

Avoid adding technology simply because there is space for it. Each accessory should make navigation, power, audio or everyday organization easier.

Phone holders & mounts

Position for visibility, not constant interaction.

A useful mount keeps the device secure and readable without creating unnecessary obstruction. Adjust the position while parked and confirm the mount remains stable.

Keep the driver's forward view clear
Confirm the device is securely held
Check access to nearby controls
Charging & power

Power devices without creating cable clutter.

Use compatible charging equipment and keep cables arranged so they do not interfere with driving controls or become tangled across the center console.

Use suitable compatible connections
Keep excess cable length controlled
Disconnect damaged cables or accessories
Bluetooth & audio

Connect before the journey begins.

Complete pairing and select your audio source while stationary whenever possible. Keep volume at a level that allows you to remain aware of the driving environment.

Pair devices before departure
Choose playlists or audio in advance
Keep essential vehicle sounds noticeable
Navigation

Let directions guide without dominating the drive.

Set the route before moving and rely on concise visual or voice guidance where suitable. If a major adjustment is required, make it when safely stopped.

Keep the display easy to glance at
Stop safely for complex changes

While driving

The safest interface is often the one you barely need to touch.

Avoid complex device interaction while the vehicle is moving. Use supported hands-free functions where appropriate, follow local requirements and safely stop before making adjustments that require sustained attention.

FAQ

Smart driving, simply explained.

Connected accessories can make daily driving more convenient, but the road and your vehicle controls should always remain the priority.

Where should I position a phone mount?
Choose a position that keeps the device secure and reasonably easy to glance at without unnecessarily blocking the road view, mirrors, instruments or important vehicle controls. Follow the mount instructions and applicable local requirements.
When should I enter a navigation destination?
Whenever possible, set the route before the vehicle begins moving. If a complex change becomes necessary during the journey, stop safely before making it.
How can I keep charging cables organized?
Use only the length you need and route cables away from pedals, steering controls, gear selectors and other moving areas. Replace damaged cables rather than continuing to use them.
Should I pair Bluetooth while driving?
Pairing and connection setup are best completed while stationary. Doing the setup in advance reduces unnecessary interaction after the journey starts.
What should I do if a device needs attention while driving?
Avoid sustained interaction with the device while moving. If the task cannot be handled appropriately through a supported hands-free function, safely stop before making the adjustment.
