ADDITIONAL EXPLANATION

Working Principle:

• Wireless CarPlay uses Bluetooth to set up the connection between the phone and the vehicle and then it switches to using WiFi for the actual functionality.
• After the Bluetooth pairing is successful, the phone V’vlFi will automatically connect to the car player’s WiFi, and then disconnect the Bluetooth connection by default. ewhen the car stereo is powered on, it will try to automatically connect to the last connected phone.

Based on the working principle of the car player, please pay attention to the following:

1. When enjoying the wireless CarPlay/Android Auto function, the phone’s V’vlFi will be occupied by the car player, other WiFi cannot be used during this period. If there is a conflict between other WiFi and car stereo’s WiFi, you may need to manually disconnect the connection of other V’vlFi to keep the wireless CarPlay/Android Auto use.
2. The auto-connection function of the car stereo requires you to keep the WiFi and Bluetooth of the mobile phone available. In addition, please set the WiFi network of the car stereo to “Auto-Join”.
3. Since the car stereo will disconnect the Bluetooth connection after pairing, your phone’s Bluetooth may automatically connect to other devices, which may cause car stereo mic input or sound playing to be unavailable. You may need to manually disconnect your phone from the other Bluetooth or switch off the Bluetooth directly to fix it. (Bluetooth plays a pairing role in the work of the car player. When the pairing is completed, it only needs V’vlFi to keep working, so it doesn, n’t matter to tum off Bluetooth. But when you use it next time, you still need to turn on Bluetooth, so that the car stereo can be automatically paired and connected.)

Note: In the drop-down menu of the mobile phone, you need to click to turn off Bluetooth first, and then click the Tum off V’vlFi button to disconnect. Just tum off the WiFi button alone, and the car will keep trying to reconnect.

Tum on the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth of the mobile phone first; Pair new device and find the Bluetooth name “CarKit-X” in the Bluetooth list, click to pair, (If need pin code, try 0000); and the car player will automatically enter into carplay interface.
