THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING US!
We value your trust. We hope that you will be happy with our product, and as
excited about it as we are. We try to offer products of the highest quality
that satisfy even the most demanding requirements. If you are satisfied, it
would make us very happy if you chose us again the next time you make a
purchase.
We are environmentally conscious, therefore we use special eco-friendly
packaging. Please recycle!
Recycling and Environmental Protection
We try to avoid using plastic packaging and film and only use them when they are absolutely necessary to protect the product. So how are we different?
Packaging you can eat… Well, almost. 🙂
- We use ink made from soybeans as opposed to classic petroleum-based ink.
- The majority of our packaging is made from 100% recyclable paper.
- We limit the use of adhesives. If absolutely necessary, we make sure to choose only wa-ter-soluble ones.
We think globally, which means that we actively search for eco-friendly solutions. We keep an eye on trending technology and place findings of the scientific community into practice. We don‘t just try to meet quotas and mandates, we aim to exceed them.

Wait about 3 seconds or press the multifunction button to confirm and the modulator will automatically connect to the radio.
Pairing using Bluetooth
- Connect the modulator to the power connector (12 V – 24 V) in your car.
- “BT” and the frequency will flash alternately on the display, which means that the modulator is ready for Bluetooth pairing.
- Turn on the Bluetooth function on your phone and start searching for available devices.
- Select “APW-FMTV2” from the list and the pairing process starts.
- Once the display stops flashing and the FM frequency is displayed, the pairing process has been completed successfully.
Note: To ensure a stable connection, keep a maximum distance of 5 m between the telephone and the modulator.
Automatic pairing
The next time you turn on the modulator, it automatically pairs with the last
paired phone. We therefore recommend that you switch on the Bluetooth function
before switching on the modulator.
USB Flash Drive Connection
Insert a suitable USB Flash Drive into the USB-A port. The modulator supports
USB Flash drives up to 32 GB. If you would like to use a flash drive with a
larger capacity, it is necessary to provide an external power supply.
Playing audio files
You will be able to play audio files from your phone (via Bluetooth) or by
connecting a USB flash drive.
If you have multiple sources connected to play audio files at the same time,
press and hold the button Next track. The display will show the individual
sources as follows: Bluetooth – USB Flash disk. When the source from which you
want to play audio files appears, release the button. If you select Bluetooth,
you will need to press the multifunction button to start playback. If you
select a USB Flash Drive, playback will start automatically.
Supported audio file formats: MP3/WMA/FLAC.
Note: Due to the wide range of devices (USB Flash Drives) on the market,
full compatibility with all available devices cannot be guaranteed. It is
necessary to test the used device first and verify its compatibility. We
recommend any formatting to the FAT32 file format. Files with a lock or other
security features may not be playable. Play tried or unprotected files.
Set volume
Adjust the volume by turning the multifunction button to the left or right.
When playing audio files from the phone, we recommend that you first set the
maximum vol-ume of the phone and modulator and then adjust it with the volume
control on the car radio.

If you have your smartphone connected to the modulator via Bluetooth, you will
also be able to control calls via the modulator.
- Answer/End call – press briefly the multifunction button.
- Rejecting call – press and hold the multifunction button.
- Last number call – press the multifunction button twice.

- USB-C: 5 V/ 3 A (15 W); 9 V/ 2.22 A (20 W); 12 V/ 1.67 A (20 W).
