Pay More Attention

Notice

TERUNSOUL-XXXX Bluetooth plays a pairing role in the operation of CarPlay. Once pairing is completed, only Wi-Fi is needed to keep CarPlay working, so you can turn off Bluetooth if desired. However, Bluetooth must be turned on for automatic pairing the next time you use the Wireless CarPlay Adapter.

Using Wireless CarPlay:

Your mobile phone's Wi-Fi will connect to TERUNSOUL-XXXX Wi-Fi, broadcasted by the Wireless CarPlay Adapter. Other Wi-Fi connections cannot be used during this time. If there is a conflict, manually disconnect the other Wi-Fi to maintain the use of Wireless CarPlay.

Automatic Connection:

The automatic connection feature of the Wireless CarPlay Adapter requires your phone's Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to be available. Additionally, set the Wireless CarPlay Adapter's TERUNSOUL-XXXX Wi-Fi signal network to "Auto Join":

  1. Go to Settings > WLAN > Ask to Join Networks: select "Notify".
  2. Go to Settings > WLAN > Click the [information-symbol] on the far right of "TERUNSOUL-XXXX" > Turn on "Auto-Join".

Bluetooth Disconnection:

The Wireless CarPlay Adapter will disconnect the Bluetooth connection with your phone after pairing. If the phone's Bluetooth connects to other devices at this time, it may cause CarPlay mic input or sound to be unavailable. You may need to manually disconnect your phone from the other Bluetooth devices or switch off the Bluetooth directly to fix it:

  1. Go to Settings > Bluetooth > Choose the Bluetooth that comes with the car (e.g., "car model XXXX") > Click the exclamation mark > Select "Forget This Device".

FAQs & Troubleshooting

What is the password to connect to Wi-Fi?

Possible Cause: The first step is to connect via Bluetooth. Once the Bluetooth connection is successful, the Wi-Fi will automatically connect without requiring a manual password.

Solution: When pairing Bluetooth, ensure Wi-Fi is on and not occupied.

The indicator light of the Wireless CarPlay Adapter stays on after the car is turned off.

Possible Cause: The lights on the Wireless CarPlay Adapter take a while to turn off. Its power consumption is minimal and will not drain the car battery.

Solution: No action is needed.

Can't find the Bluetooth or Wi-Fi signal TERUNSOUL-XXXX of the Wireless CarPlay Adapter?

Possible Causes: 1. The Wi-Fi and Bluetooth modules of the mobile phone are defective. 2. The Wireless CarPlay Adapter has defects.

Solution: Test with another iPhone if possible. If only a specific iPhone cannot find the Bluetooth or Wi-Fi of the Wireless CarPlay Adapter, reset the network and Bluetooth settings on that iPhone and restart it. If the same issue occurs on other iPhones, the unit may be defective. In this case, please contact for a refund or replacement.

Audio input or output issues (calls rejected or forwarded to voicemail, no sound/microphone not working, music playback interrupted or paused, voice functioning abnormally):

Possible Causes: The Bluetooth connection has multiple connections. The background device of the mobile phone is occupying the Bluetooth device, or the audio output selection is incorrect.

Solution:

  1. Phone Settings: Ensure your phone's Bluetooth is on and not connected to other devices. If it is, ignore other auto-connected Bluetooth devices or turn off Bluetooth. Go to Settings > Bluetooth > Choose the Bluetooth that comes with the car (e.g., "car model XXXX") > Click the exclamation mark > Select "Forget This Device". Clear the programs running in the background of your phone when using the Wireless CarPlay Adapter.
  2. When a Call Ends: Ensure that your "Audio" output option is set to CarPlay.

Note: Bluetooth is used for pairing in the Wireless CarPlay Adapter. After pairing, only Wi-Fi is needed to keep it working, so you can turn off Bluetooth if desired. However, for automatic pairing and connection the next time, Bluetooth must be enabled.

Persistent Disconnection?

Possible Cause: The Wi-Fi connection is disrupted.

Solution:

  1. The Wireless CarPlay Adapter relies on a Wi-Fi connection to your phone to function properly. Dropped connections are usually caused by Wi-Fi interference. Check if there are other Wi-Fi devices in your car, such as a car camera with a Wi-Fi function. If so, you may need to ignore other Wi-Fi networks when using the Wireless CarPlay Adapter.
  2. Improve this issue by resetting your mobile WLAN network. Additionally, updating the firmware of your Wireless CarPlay Adapter can help.

Reset Network Settings: (This will require you to re-enter your password when reconnecting to a previously used network)

Go to Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset > Reset Network Settings.

Can the Wireless CarPlay Adapter be paired with multiple phones?

Solution: The Wireless CarPlay Adapter can be paired with multiple iPhones, but only one device can be connected at a time. To pair a new iPhone, disconnect the currently connected iPhone.

Note: By default, the dongle's system will automatically reconnect to the last used iPhone.

Unable to Automatically Reconnect?

Possible Cause: Phone settings conflict.

Solution:

  1. Automatic Connection: In some cars, you need to select "automatic connection" in the CarPlay settings to enable the automatic connection function of the Wireless CarPlay Adapter.
  2. Check Phone Settings:
    1. Go to Settings > WLAN > Ask to Join Networks: select "Notify."
    2. Go to Settings > WLAN > Click the [information-symbol] on the far right of "TERUNSOUL-XXXX" > Turn on "Auto-Join."
  3. Other Cases:
    1. Ensure that the Bluetooth and Wi-Fi functions on your mobile phone are turned on and not paired to any other devices when you get in the car.
    2. Clear the pairing history, restart the phone, and pair the phone again.
    3. Update the firmware.

Troubleshooting Specific Issues

Audio and Video Synchronization Issue: When the Phone Plays Videos, the Audio is Not Synchronized with the Video

Solution: Even the original Wireless CarPlay that comes with the car has an audio delay when watching videos. This is due to video transcoding being more complex than normal audio file transcoding and taking longer to process. The dual module design improves product transmission speed. This is a normal issue with Wireless CarPlay, not a problem with the adapter.

Car Screen Goes Black After Pairing?

Solution:

  1. When you pair it for the first time, keep the Wi-Fi turned on (there is no need to manually connect to the Wireless CarPlay Adapter's Wi-Fi at this time), and then pair via Bluetooth. When the Bluetooth pairing is successful, the Wi-Fi will automatically connect to the dongle. Check whether your Wi-Fi has automatically changed to connect to the dongle when this page appears. If not, unplug the Wireless CarPlay Adapter, ignore the "TERUNSOUL-XXXX" on your Bluetooth list, restart your phone, plug the dongle back in, and pair it again.
  2. If it still doesn't work, try updating the firmware.

Audio Lag or Sound Quality Problem (Excluding Audio Delay During Video Playback)?

Possible Cause: The audio stream mode has a frequency conflict with the vehicle system.

Solution: Modify the "Audio Streaming Mode":

  1. Enter the Dongle's Firmware Update Interface:

Power on the Wireless CarPlay Adapter. It is recommended to use the charging port only.

Connect to Wi-Fi: Connect to the Wi-Fi of the Wireless CarPlay Adapter, and the password is "12345678".

Open Safari and enter 192.168.18.9.

Find "Audio Streaming Mode": There are 4 optional modes:

Usually, we recommend using the default mode.

Try Other Modes: You can also try other modes to get the best results.

Restart Your Phone: Please restart your phone before using the dongle again.

If the Issue Persists: If this method does not work, return the "Audio Streaming Mode" to the "Default" and then try updating the Wireless CarPlay Adapter.

CarPlay Does Not Start or Car Prompts That the Device is Not Compatible / Does Not Recognize the USB

Solution: Modify the "Delayed Start" mode:

  1. Enter the Firmware Update Interface: Power on the Wireless CarPlay Adapter. It is recommended to use the charging port only.
  2. Connect to Wi-Fi: Connect to the Wi-Fi of the Wireless CarPlay Adapter, and the password is "12345678".
  3. Open Safari: Open Safari and enter "192.168.18.9". (Refer to Picture 1 for further information: Note2)
  4. Change Delayed Start Mode: Look for "Delayed Start" and change the mode from "default" to "Mode 1".
  5. Restart Your Phone: Please restart your phone before using the dongle again.
  6. If the Issue Persists: If this method does not work, return the "Delayed Start" mode to the "Default" and then try updating the Wireless CarPlay Adapter.

Note: The "Video Streaming Mode" does not need to be changed.

Additional Note: If you have tried troubleshooting the issue based on the above information and the problem persists, please contact after-sales support. Unauthorized repair personnel are strictly prohibited from disassembling or assembling the unit.
