Jaecoo J7: Apps, Saved Driver Settings and Getting Started with DSA

Is DSA compatible with your Jaecoo J7?

DSA supports the J7 model family, including petrol and PHEV configurations. Available features depend on your vehicle’s equipment and infotainment software.

Before installation, our support team will check your:

• Model year and country or market.
• Petrol or PHEV version.
• Trim and installed equipment.
• Infotainment software version.

Features such as seat memory or ventilation require compatible equipment. During setup, select only features physically present in your car.

What can DSA add to your J7?

Saved driver settings

Create driver profiles and save the preferences available for your vehicle. DSA applies the selected profile’s settings when the car starts, helping reduce repeated adjustments.

Comfort controls, drive settings, and other available options vary between vehicles.

Apps on your car screen

Use supported apps for navigation, music, and entertainment, with installation and management through the App Store. The DSA guides cover apps including Waze, YouTube, Spotify, and WhatsApp.

Some apps and Google services are unavailable or behave differently on the infotainment system. Check the DSA App Guide for supported apps and setup instructions.

Gestures and comfort controls

Use configurable gestures to access supported actions more easily, including climate controls and app navigation. Seat heating, ventilation, and related functions depend on your car’s equipment.

Sound customization

XEQ provides equalizer controls for adjusting the sound to your preference. Start with a preset, listen, and adjust it using the Quick Setup guide.
