Maintenance Features

The manual provides guidance on maintaining the device's optimal performance and addressing common issues. For general maintenance, it advises against operating mobile video equipment while driving and recommends setting the volume at a comfortable level to avoid distortion. It also cautions against using the car stereo for extended periods when the car engine is off to prevent battery drain and emphasizes keeping the product away from water.

In terms of troubleshooting, the manual offers solutions for various problems:

No sound: Solutions include checking if the internal amplifier is on, adjusting the volume, ensuring external amplifiers are connected and powered, verifying the remote output wire voltage, and changing the audio source.
Media not supported: This typically indicates an incompatible media format on the USB flash drive, suggesting a change in format or USB device.
Poor radio reception: Solutions involve changing the station, ensuring the antenna output wire is connected, and connecting the antenna to the product.
Phone Link will not start: This can be due to a bad Lightning/USB cable (replace it), a locked device (unlock it), or the phone not being charged (power it on and allow charging). If the phone link is frozen, unplug the device, close all apps, and plug it in again. A bad signal might require connecting the back camera cable to enhance the signal.
Bluetooth® issues: If not connecting, ensure the device is within range and Bluetooth® is turned on. If problems persist, go to Settings > Connection > Power ON, and re-pair and connect the device.
GPS issues: If GPS is not working, it might be due to the GPS area; placing the GPS antenna under the windshield is recommended.
Backup camera: The device may not support the original camera, in which case an aftermarket camera is needed.

The manual also includes a "Factory setting" menu, which allows for advanced configurations such as logo settings, radio settings, gain settings, CAN type settings, touch study, and display setup. This section is intended for more experienced users or professional installers. The "System Setting" menu provides information about the device's language, date & time, and system details, including kernel version, memory, storage, platform version, MCU version, APP version, and BT version, which can be useful for diagnostics and support.
