Step 3: Download the Update

 

  • Once the MyLink system is connected to the internet, return to the "System" or "Software Information" menu.
  • If an update is available, you should see an option to "Download" or "Install" the update.

  • Ensure your vehicle remains in park, and the engine stays on during this process.
  • Follow the on-screen prompts to begin the installation.
  • Once the installation starts, don’t turn off your vehicle until the process is complete.
  • The MyLink system may reboot several times during the installation. This is normal.

 

Step 5: Confirm Completion

 

  • Once the installation is complete, the MyLink system will give you a confirmation.
  • Verify that the new software version is correctly installed by checking the "Software Information" section in the settings.
  • Test a few features of the MyLink system to ensure everything is functioning correctly.
