When plugged into the USB port the Media Center screen should show the Car Play option in the menu, if its a model that supports Car Play.


Make sure the USB port you are using is one that connects to the media center, and not one that is just for charging.

Is the option not appearing there?

In that case just press the Car Play button on the media center screen.


The Car Play screen in Settings is only for the setup for cars that support wireless Car Play.


The 2016 Civic only supports USB CarPlay.


It will not appear in the Car Play screen.

Your unit does not support Car Play. The Touch screen enabled units are the ones that support Car Play. without the touch screen, there is no Car Play.


You can use the Bluetooth connection features, such as music playback and call answering, but that is not Car Play.
