Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues, refer to the following common solutions:

• Bluetooth Connection Issues: Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on both devices. Forget and re-pair the device. Restart both the phone and the car stereo.
• GPS Signal Loss: Ensure the GPS antenna is properly installed and has a clear view of the sky. Move the vehicle to an open area if signal is weak.
