Update your multimedia system and map

Note: check if your systems are already up to date to avoid starting a procedure unnecessarily.

To update your multimedia system and its maps, you will need a USB flash drive and a computer connected to the Internet.

Use your computer to download updates from the Internet to the USB flash drive, then install the updates from the USB flash drive on your vehicle's multimedia system.

If the multimedia system software is not up to date, the Toolbox software will offer a system update before the map is updated. The system and map cannot be updated at the same time. The process must be repeated for each update.

You will need to proceed as follows:

  • saving the system on a USB key;
  • install the Toolbox software on your computer;
  • downloading products from the Toolbox to the USB key;
  • Updating the multimedia system or map from the USB flash drive.

Follow the steps described below in sequence.
