6. Operating Instructions

6.1. Bluetooth Pairing Connection

You can use Bluetooth for music playback or hands-free calls. When using wireless CarPlay or Android Auto, you must first pair the Bluetooth connection.

6.2. MirrorLink (Mobile Screen Mirroring)

MirrorLink allows you to project your phone's screen onto the car player's display.

For iPhone (iOS Mirroring)

When your iPhone is connected to the device, its screen content will be projected. Note that touch input on the car player screen is not supported for iPhones.

For Android (Android Mirroring)

When connecting an Android device via USB, you will be prompted to install an APP. After installation, reconnect the data cable to enter screen mirroring mode. You can operate on both the car player screen and the phone screen. Image transfer is successful, but audio requires a successful Bluetooth connection.

CarPlay allows you to use various iPhone functions on the car player screen.

• **Wired Connection:** Connect your iPhone via a USB data cable. The device will automatically enter the CarPlay interface.
• **Wireless Connection:** First, enable Bluetooth and Wi-Fi on your iPhone, then connect via Bluetooth. The device will automatically enter the CarPlay interface. (Note: The signal is transmitted via Wi-Fi. If Wi-Fi is off, CarPlay will disconnect.)

6.4. Android Auto (Wired & Wireless)

Android Auto allows you to display your Android phone applications on the car player screen.

• **Prerequisites:** You need to download and install the "Android Auto" app from Google Play. An Android phone with OS 6.0 or higher and a valid data cable are required.

6.5. Audio Output Methods

The device offers three ways to output audio:

• **Built-in Speaker:** When playing music from a USB flash drive, the sound will come from the built-in 1W speaker on the back of the unit.



• **AUX Line Transmission:** The audio can be transmitted to your original car player via the 3.5mm AUX cable. (Supported by some models only)



• **FM Signal Transmission:** The device can transmit audio to your original car radio.
1. **Preset Frequencies:** Select one of the six preset FM transmission frequencies and use your car radio to search for that frequency.
2. **Manual Frequency Setting:**
   • Tune your car radio to an empty channel (e.g., 92.3MHz) to avoid interference.
   • Set the device's FM transmission frequency to match your car radio's frequency (e.g., 92.3MHz).
   • The audio will then be transmitted through your car's speakers.

• **Cleaning:** Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the screen and exterior. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the surface.

8. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues and their solutions.

• **MirrorLink Connection Issues:**
  • Before connecting, ensure the device's PhoneLink function is selected to 'Mirror' mode.
  • Connect the phone's data cable and authorize the connection on your phone.
• **No Sound Output from Car Speakers:**
  • The device has a built-in speaker; ensure it is not muted in the system settings if you intend to use car speakers.
  • Use the FM transmission function: Select an empty FM channel on the device (e.g., 86.3MHz), play USB music, then tune your car radio to the same frequency.
  • Use the 3.5mm AUX OUT interface (if supported by your model) to transmit audio to your car's original player.
• **Bluetooth Not Working Properly:**
  • Delete any previously paired "SWL-BT" or "CarPlay" devices from your mobile phone's Bluetooth settings.
  • Re-search for the device's Bluetooth name and reconnect.
• **CarPlay or Android Auto Not Connecting Automatically:**
  • Ensure CarPlay or Android Auto is set as the default connection mode in the PhoneLink settings.
  • For wireless connections, ensure both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are enabled on your mobile phone.
  • If issues persist, clear all paired Bluetooth devices on your phone, restart both phone and device, and re-establish the connection. Check that the CarPlay switch in the interface is set to the correct option. A factory reset (Settings - Basic Settings - Restore factory Settings) can also resolve persistent issues.
• **Low Volume (Music/Calls):**
  • Press and hold your finger on the top of the screen and slide down to access the status bar. Adjust the playback or call volume from there.
• **Time and Date Not Remembered:**
  • The device does not have an internal battery to retain time/date settings. It will automatically update the time and date once connected to a mobile phone.
• **Cannot Play TF Card/USB Music/Videos:**
  • Use 8GB or 16GB TF cards or USB drives. Some large-capacity storage devices may not be supported.
  • Format the storage device to FAT32 file system.
  • Ensure media files are in common formats, as some encoding formats may not be recognized.
• **Screen Not Lighting Up:**
  • Verify the power supply is correctly connected. The USB light on the cigarette lighter plug should be on.
  • If power is confirmed, press and hold the reset button on the back of the device for 3 seconds.
  • If the issue is software-related, contact customer service for a software upgrade.
• **Touch Screen Not Working Properly:**
  • Long-press the touch screen with five fingers for a few seconds to enter the touch correction interface. Click the crosshair on the screen to restore calibration.
• **Reversing Camera Image is Upside Down:**
  • Check the device settings for an option to flip or rotate the camera image.
• **External Microphone Quality:**
  • If the built-in microphone quality is poor during calls, an external lavalier microphone can be connected via the 3.5mm MIC IN jack (if supported by your model).
• **Screen Mirroring Cannot Be Connected:**
  • You must exit CarPlay or Android Auto before attempting screen mirroring.
  • To exit CarPlay (iPhone): Click the 'i' next to the Bluetooth name, turn off CarPlay, then ignore the device.
  • To exit Android Auto (Android): Turn off Wi-Fi and hotspot on the phone, then ignore the Bluetooth device.

9. User Tips

• **Wireless CarPlay/Android Auto:** While both wired and wireless connections are supported, some users report more stable wireless Android Auto compared to wireless CarPlay. If you experience issues with wireless CarPlay, try the wired connection.
• **Audio Output:** For the best audio quality through your car's speakers, prioritize using the AUX cable connection if your car supports it. If not, FM transmission is a viable alternative, but ensure you find an empty frequency to avoid interference.
• **Volume Control:** If you find the volume too low, remember to slide down the status bar on the device screen to access and adjust the volume settings.
• **External Microphone:** If call quality is a concern, consider connecting an external microphone to the MIC IN port for improved clarity.
• **Screen Protection:** To prevent screen damage, avoid touching the screen with sharp objects and clean it regularly with a soft cloth.
