Connecting Your Phone to a Toyota Avalon
To connect your phone to a Toyota Avalon, you can use either Apple CarPlay or Bluetooth, depending on your phone and the model year of your Avalon.
Using Apple CarPlay:
The Toyota Avalon is compatible with Apple CarPlay, allowing anyone with a relatively new iPhone to connect to it and enjoy their favorite apps through the car for safer, less-distracted driving.
Using Bluetooth:
If you prefer to connect via Bluetooth, you can follow these general steps:
1. Make sure Bluetooth is activated on your mobile device.
2. On your Entune multimedia system, click Menu > tap Setup > then tap Bluetooth. You will be prompted to add a new device, tap “Yes”. Select your device from the Entune screen.
3. On your mobile device, select your Toyota Entune system in the Bluetooth menu. The two will now begin pairing.
It’s important to note that the specific steps for connecting via Bluetooth may vary slightly depending on the model year of your Toyota Avalon.
If you have an older model of the Avalon and are looking to connect an Android phone, it’s worth noting that only 2021 and later model year Toyota Avalon vehicles are compatible with Android Auto.
In summary, for newer model years, you can connect your iPhone to the Toyota Avalon using Apple CarPlay, and for older model years, you can use Bluetooth for phone connectivity.
If you have any further questions or need assistance with the specific steps for your model year, feel free to reach out to your local Toyota dealership for guidance.
I hope this helps! If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.
