Common questions about manuals, registration, and support for this brand.
Generally, turn on your iPhone's Bluetooth and pair it to the adapter's Bluetooth signal (often named 'smart Box-xxxx' or 'CAR-BT-xxxx'). Once paired, confirm the prompt to Use CarPlay. The phone will then switch to a WiFi connection automatically.
Check your original car's audio settings. For many integrations, the original head unit must be set to 'AUX' mode or the specific Bluetooth source associated with the adapter to transmit audio correctly.
Firmware updates are typically done by connecting your phone to the adapter's WiFi network (password is often '88888888') and entering IP address 192.168.1.101 in a mobile browser to access the update interface.
CARabc typically offers a one-year manufacturer warranty for their products, covering defects in materials and workmanship under normal use.
