Apple CarPlay is an application 

developed by Apple Inc. Its func-

tions and services may be termi-

nated or changed without notice 

depending on the connected 

device’s operation system, hard-

ware and software, or due to 

changes in Apple CarPlay specifi-

cations.

●

In some regions, speed limit infor-

mation is displayed on the route 

guidance screen of the iOS 11 or 

later map application. The dis-

played information is based on the 

information in the map application, 

so it may differ from the speed 

limit information displayed on the 

multi-information display.
