Before beginning installation, ensure your vehicle's ignition is off and the car battery is disconnected to prevent electrical shorts or damage.

3.1 Wiring Instructions

4. Operating Instructions

4.1 Bluetooth Pairing

1. Turn on your car radio and select the AUX input source. The method for selecting AUX input varies by Alpine radio model; refer to your radio's manual if needed.
2. On your mobile device (phone, tablet, etc.), enable Bluetooth and search for available devices.
3. Look for a device named similar to "BT-MUSIC" or "Qiilu AUX" in the list of available Bluetooth devices.
4. Select the adapter to pair. Once paired, your device should indicate a successful connection.

4.2 Playing Audio

After successful pairing, you can now play audio from your mobile device. The audio will be transmitted wirelessly to your Alpine car radio. Use your mobile device to control playback (play, pause, skip tracks) and volume. The car radio's volume control will also adjust the output level.

5. Maintenance

The Qiilu Auxiliary Input Bluetooth Adapter requires minimal maintenance. Keep the adapter and its connections clean and dry. Avoid exposing the unit to extreme temperatures, moisture, or direct sunlight for prolonged periods. Do not attempt to open or modify the adapter, as this will void any potential warranty and could cause damage.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Qiilu Auxiliary Input Bluetooth Adapter, refer to the following troubleshooting steps:

• No Audio Output:
  • Ensure the car radio is set to the correct AUX input source.
  • Verify that your mobile device is successfully paired with the adapter and playing audio.
  • Check the volume levels on both your mobile device and the car radio.

  • Turn off and on Bluetooth on your mobile device.
  • Delete any previous pairings for the adapter on your mobile device and attempt to pair again.
