I need an easy cliff notes version on how to update my infotainment firmware. I have a 2014 hatchback. I don't know my current version. I have a mac only, not a pc. I am comfortable using wifi or USB to do this, but again, it needs to be dumbed down for an old man to accomplish. Using an iPhone to connect with the system as I drive. Thank you!

You need to know the current version before upgrading. It can be either a one step process, or a two step process.

If you have an older version and you try and do it in one step, you will destroy your equipment.

Your choice.....I recommend finding out your current version before progressing.

If this is an old firmware, then go into the system through the console. To find out the version, enter in the console:
cat jci/version.ini
