Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your kuayvan car stereo, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Screen Cleaning: Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to clean the display. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or aerosol sprays, as these can damage the screen.
• Connection Checks: Periodically inspect all cables and connections (power, AUX, camera) to ensure they are secure and free from damage. Loose connections can lead to intermittent functionality.
• TF Card Management: Regularly check the included 64GB TF card for proper insertion and function. While loop recording manages storage, it is good practice to occasionally review and back up important footage. Format the TF card if you experience recording issues or degraded performance.
• Temperature Exposure: Avoid exposing the device to extreme temperatures for extended periods, as this can affect its electronic components and battery life.

Troubleshooting

Common Issues & Solutions

• Device not powering on:
  • Check the power cord connection to the vehicle's 12V outlet.
  • Ensure the vehicle's 12V outlet is active (some vehicles require the ignition to be on).
• CarPlay/Android Auto not connecting:
  • Verify Bluetooth is enabled on both your smartphone and the car stereo.
  • Ensure the correct device name is selected for pairing in your phone's Bluetooth settings.
  • Try restarting both your smartphone and the car stereo.
• No audio output:
  • Check the selected audio output method on the car stereo (Built-in Speaker, AUX, FM, Bluetooth).
  • Ensure volume levels are up on both the car stereo and your vehicle's audio system.
  • If using AUX, ensure the cable is fully inserted into both the car stereo and your vehicle's AUX input.
  • If using FM transmission, tune your car radio to the correct frequency displayed on the car stereo.
• Dash Cam recording issues:
  • Ensure the 64GB TF card is properly inserted into the designated slot.
  • Check if the TF card is full (though loop recording should manage this by overwriting older files).
  • If issues persist, try formatting the TF card through the device's settings (this will erase all data).
• Screen mirroring problems:
  • Verify your phone is connected to the device's dedicated WiFi network for mirroring (not your home WiFi).
  • Ensure the correct mirroring app (AirPlay for iOS or Evelink for Android) is active and properly configured on your phone.
• Device not automatically reconnecting (Android Auto/CarPlay):
  • Some vehicles' 12V power outlets remain active even when the car is off. The device may require a full power cycle (disconnecting and reconnecting power) to re-establish an automatic connection.
  • Consider consulting a professional to wire the device to an ACC (accessory) power circuit that powers down with the ignition, or use a smart power switch.
