5. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Srnubi Car Radio Multimedia Player, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the screen and exterior. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that may damage the surface.
  • Software Updates: Periodically check for software updates provided by Srnubi to ensure you have the latest features and bug fixes.
  • Avoid Extreme Temperatures: Do not expose the unit to extreme heat or cold, as this can affect its electronic components.
  • Cable Connections: Ensure all cables are securely connected. Loose connections can lead to intermittent issues.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:

Q: Why can't the car radio turn on?
  • Check Voltage: Ensure the car radio receives 12V.
  • Wiring: When testing, combine the red and yellow wires and connect them to the positive side of the power supply. Connect the black line to the negative power supply.
  • Power Cables: You must use the provided power cables. Do not insert the original car plug directly into the unit.
  • Fuse: Replace the fuse with the same type if it's blown.
Q: Why does the car radio show "No Signal" when reversing?
  • Camera Connection: Check if the camera's line is properly connected to the car radio. The video port of the rear camera must be inserted into the "CAMIN" port of the car radio.
Q: Why does the camera display "!" and "Can't watch video while driving" when using USB to watch videos?
  • Video Warning Setting: Turn off the "Video Warning" function in the settings.
Q: Why can't I search for FM radio stations?
  • Radio Antenna: Ensure the radio antenna is properly inserted and well-contacted. Try inserting it multiple times.
  • Signal Strength: The signal in your location might be weak. Try testing in a different area.
  • Antenna Condition: Check if the car's radio antenna is broken or ineffective; replace it if necessary.
Q: Why can't I connect the car radio's Bluetooth?
  • Phone Settings: Open your phone's Bluetooth settings, search for devices, and pair with the player's Bluetooth model. If a pairing code is required, try "0000", "1234", or "123456".
  • Test with Another Phone: Try connecting with a different mobile phone to rule out phone-specific issues.
  • Bluetooth Antenna: Ensure the Bluetooth receiving antenna is properly connected.
  • Reset: If all methods fail, unplug the power connector from the back of the player, wait 3 minutes, and plug it back in.
Q: Bluetooth or WiFi signal is weak.
  • Rear Camera Input Connector: Check and reconnect the yellow rear camera input connector. It often contains two short cables that are extensions for the Bluetooth and WiFi antennas. You can extend these cables to enhance the signal.
Q: The navigation map does not work.
  • GPS Signal: Check if the GPS has a signal by clicking on GPS signal detection. If there is a signal, try reinstalling the map or opening a mobile WiFi hotspot.
  • GPS Antenna: If there is no GPS signal, move the car out of the garage and test the GPS interface voltage on the road. The voltage must be 3.3V; otherwise, the GPS antenna should be replaced.
Q: The screen display is abnormal.
  • One-key Recovery: Click the one-key recovery button.
  • Screen Cable: If the issue persists, remove the screws on the back, check if the screen cable is loose, and reconnect it.
Q: Abnormal sound.
  • Wiring Modification: Check if the original car cable has been modified. If so, inspect the speaker cables and reconnect them correctly.
  • Amplifier: Ensure there isn't an incompatibility with an original or modified amplifier.
Q: Radio setting interface password.
  • T6 models: 111333, 1234, 1617, 16176699
