Starting Front Camera While Using Car Play
I plan on using Car Play which takes away the normal home screens on the display. How do you get the front curb camera display up while using Car Play? Do you have to exit Car Play first? Looking for the 2019 infotainment manual....
Thanks, David

hit the home button on the dash under the radio display, then you can access all the icons again.

You prolly already know that that you have to be going really slow for the camera to operate.

While in Car Play mode, press the Home key/button (has an icon of a little house) and then on the home screen (the one with all the icons that control the infotainment system) find and press the camera icon. No need to “exit” Car Play and return to Chevrolet My Link at all.

Roger the home button. Let’s say you are not using Car Play. I assume you have to hit the camera icon to get it to come on? In other words, it doesn’t come on automatically when under the speed limit, correct? Please forgive these simple questions. New to the C7 world. Planning to order this week :-)

If I’m wrong, I’m sure someone will be along shortly to clear things up. I’m taking a break from power washing my backyard fence
and this is all from memory.And welcome to the C7 World...

You're correct, then the cameras will go off as soon as you start to accelerate. You don't have to deactivate them yourself.
