Important Notes on Power and Speaker Wiring:

• The unit will turn on normally when both the yellow (B+) and red (ACC) lines receive a 12V positive power simultaneously.
• The yellow (B+) line maintains power to the unit, providing memory function.
• There are 8 speaker cables. Each cable must not be grounded, shared, or touch other lines. Doing so may result in no sound output, distorted sound, or overheating of the unit.

5.3. Reversing Camera Installation

To install a reversing camera (optional accessory):

1. Locate the pink reverse control line on the unit's power line. Connect this line to the 12V positive pole of the reverse lamp. The screen will turn blue when reverse is engaged.
2. Locate the CAM video input interface on the back of the unit.
3. Connect the camera: The red socket of the camera connects to the power cable. The yellow wire of the camera connects to the video cable. The red wire of the power cable and the video cable are screwed together to the positive pole of the reverse lamp. The black wire of the power cable is not used.
4. The other end of the video cable connects to the CAM video input interface on the back of the unit. The red line coming out of the video line connects to the reversing control line of the power line.

Warning: If a reversing camera is not installed, do not connect the REVERSE/BACK cable to any other location. Leave it unconnected. Otherwise, the unit may display incorrectly or automatically enter reverse mode, potentially causing malfunction. If this occurs, disconnect the REVERSE/BACK line immediately to restore normal operation.

8. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues and their solutions. If the problem persists, contact customer support.

8.1. Cannot Boot Normally

1. Wiring Check: Ensure the yellow (B+), red (ACC), and black (GND) wires are correctly connected. Yellow to positive, red to key control, black to negative. Incorrect or loose connections will prevent booting.
2. Original Car Wiring: Do not connect original car wiring directly by color, as standards vary. Use the provided wiring harnesses.
3. Fuse Check: If the 3 wires are correctly connected but the unit doesn't boot, check the fuse on the yellow line. If it's broken, replace it. If the fuse is fine, twist the yellow and red wires together, turn on the key, and press the power button.
4. Short Circuit Protection: If fuses repeatedly burn out, it indicates a short circuit in the unit's protection circuit. This requires professional repair.
5. Bench Test: If all else fails, connect the yellow and red wires to a 12V positive power source and the black wire to negative. If it boots, the issue is with your car's wiring. If not, the unit is faulty.

8.2. Automatic Shut-down

1. Cable Error: If the blue (automatic antenna power supply) cable is connected to the unit's power cable, it may cause automatic shutdown. Correct the wiring.
2. Unstable Voltage: Test the power supply with a stable 12V-5A source. If the unit still shuts down automatically, the unit is faulty. If it doesn't, the power supply is the issue.

8.3. Audio Issues (Noise / No Sound)

1. Noise: If there's noise at high volume, the original speaker power may be too low. Avoid excessively high volume. If the speaker cable is grounded, connect it directly to the unit's speaker cable without grounding.
2. No Sound After Installation: Check for wiring errors or short-circuited speaker wires. Ensure speaker cables are not grounded or touching each other. Reconnect any short-circuited cables. Verify the number of speaker cables matches your vehicle's requirements (e.g., 2 speakers need 4 cables).
3. No Sound After A While: Disconnect all speaker cables from the unit (do not remove them). Test with an external speaker by connecting it to the gray and purple wires of the tail line. If there's sound, your car's speaker line is short-circuited or the speaker is damaged. If there's no sound, the unit is faulty.

8.4. Remote Control Not Working

1. Test Remote: Use a mobile phone camera to check if the remote's IR light flashes when buttons are pressed. If not, replace the battery. If it flashes, the remote is functional.

8.5. Settings Not Saved (No Memory)

1. Wiring: The yellow and red lines are connected together (yellow to positive, red to key control). If they are reversed, switch their positions.

8.6. Bluetooth Not Working

1. Pairing: Turn on the unit, search for its Bluetooth name on your phone, and click Connect. If a pairing code is requested, try 0000, 1234, or 123456.
2. Reset: If issues persist, unplug the unit's power plug from the back for 3 minutes, then reconnect.

8.7. Product Emits Smoke

Replace the FUSE. If the problem cannot be solved, the internal circuit has burned and requires after-sales service.

8.8. Reversing Camera Not Displaying

1. Wiring: Check for incorrect or missing wiring. Ensure the reverse control line (pink) is connected to 12V positive, and the camera's video output is connected to the CAM video input.
2. Camera Fault: If the camera's lamp (when correctly wired) does not light up, the camera is faulty and needs replacement.

8.9. FM Radio Not Receiving Stations

1. Antenna Connection: Ensure the antenna plug is fully inserted. Check if the antenna is disconnected or the line is broken.
2. Search: Use the AS button for automatic station search or manually search using the before/after buttons.
3. Alternative Antenna: If the above steps don't work, unplug the antenna plug and insert a screwdriver or metal strip into the antenna port as a temporary antenna.

9. User Tips

• Factory Settings Password: The default factory password is 1234. Some users have reported 3368 as an alternative. If the default doesn't work, try 3368.
• Pre-Installation Test: Always test the unit with a 12V power supply before full installation in the car to avoid issues after wiring.
• Wiring Caution: Pay close attention to speaker wiring to prevent short circuits and ensure proper sound output. Each speaker cable should be connected individually without grounding or sharing.
• Touch Screen Responsiveness: If the touch screen becomes unresponsive, a quick reset or reboot often resolves the issue.
