Setup and Installation
The Veralady Wireless CarPlay Screen is designed for simple plug-and-play installation, requiring no complex modifications to your vehicle's existing system. It comes with versatile mounting options to suit various dashboard configurations.
1. Mounting the Device
The device includes two types of brackets: a self-adhesive dashboard mount and a suction cup mount. Choose the bracket that best fits your vehicle's dashboard and provides an optimal viewing angle without obstructing your driving view.
- Dashboard Mount: Clean the desired area on your dashboard. Peel off the protective film from the adhesive base of the bracket and firmly press it onto the dashboard. Hold for a few seconds to ensure strong adhesion.
- Suction Cup Mount: Clean the windshield or a smooth dashboard surface. Press the suction cup firmly against the surface and push down the lever to create a vacuum seal.
Both brackets support 360-degree rotation and angle adjustments (45-degree and 180-degree adjustments depending on the bracket type) to achieve the perfect viewing position.

2. Power Connection
Connect the provided power cord to the device and plug the other end into your vehicle's cigarette lighter socket. The device will power on automatically when the vehicle's ignition is turned on.

The system includes a 4K front dash cam integrated into the main unit and supports an external 1080P backup camera. For backup camera installation, route the camera cable from the rear of your vehicle to the main unit and connect it to the designated AV-IN port. Ensure the backup camera is mounted securely and provides a clear view of the rear.
