4. Setup and Installation

Follow these steps to install your iKiKin M11 Car HUD Display:

1. Choose Installation Mode:
   • OBD Mode: Locate your vehicle's OBD2 port (usually under the dashboard on the driver's side). Insert the provided OBD cable connector firmly into the OBD2 port.
   • GPS Mode: Connect the provided USB cable to the HUD display and then plug the other end into a car charger (not included) or a suitable USB power source in your vehicle.
2. Position the HUD: Place the non-slip mat on your dashboard in a position that allows for clear projection onto the windshield without obstructing your view of the road.
3. Route the Cable: Carefully route the connecting cable (OBD or USB) along the dashboard and tuck it into the A-pillar seal or other trim to keep it tidy and secure, preventing interference with driving controls.
4. Apply Reflective Film (Optional): If the projection on your windshield appears blurry or has a double image, apply the reflective film to the windshield directly above the HUD unit. Clean the windshield thoroughly before application.
5. Power On: The HUD will automatically power on when your vehicle starts.

  • Check your vehicle's ignition status; the device powers on automatically with the car.
  • If using OBD mode, verify your vehicle's OBD2 port is functional.
• Inaccurate Speed/Data Readings:
  • In GPS mode, ensure the device has a clear view of the sky to acquire satellite signals. Allow a few minutes for initial satellite lock.
  • In OBD mode, ensure the connection is stable. Some vehicle models may have slight variations in data reporting.
  • Check the KM/MPH switch setting to ensure the correct unit is selected.
• Display Blurry or Double Image:
  • Adjust the position of the HUD on the dashboard.
  • Apply the provided reflective film to the windshield directly above the HUD for clearer projection.
• Display Stops Intermittently (GPS Mode):
  • Ensure a stable power supply from the USB car charger.
  • Verify that the device has a continuous, unobstructed view of the sky for GPS signal reception.
• Vehicle Warning Lights On (OBD Mode):
  • Immediately disconnect the OBD cable from your vehicle. This indicates a potential incompatibility or issue with your vehicle's system. Do not continue using the HUD in OBD mode. Consult a professional mechanic.
