4.4 Steering Wheel Control (SWC)

The method for activating steering wheel control functions depends on whether your vehicle uses a CANBUS decoder.

• Without CANBUS Decoder: Connect the plugs or the steering wheel control wires (Key1/Key2) in the power cable to the corresponding port or wire of your original car. Then, go to "SteeringWheel Key" manual match to activate the button function.
• With CANBUS Decoder: Connect the canbus before powering on the machine. Then, follow this path: Apps > Settings > Factory Settings (8888/8317) > Vehicle > Automotive type. Select the brand of the canbus decoder and the matching model and year according to your vehicle's actual situation to ensure SWC works properly.
