Follow these steps for a quick and easy setup:

1. Connect the Adapter: Plug the Alltotive S1 Wireless CarPlay Adapter into the car's USB port that supports data transfer. This is typically indicated by a data symbol next to the port. Avoid using USB ports that are for charging only. This step is primarily for the initial setup.
