Make sure the WIFI access point is enabled in the MMI settings.
On your iPhone under Settings -> Wi-Fi, your car should appear with ***_5GHZ.
Pair your Apple device with Bluetooth, it should now ask you if you want to activate CarPlay.
If not, delete the pairing, first connect to the car’s Wi-Fi from the Apple device, then retry pairing via Bluetooth.
