SMART-LINK AUDIO CONNECTIONS

flowchart
graph LR
A["SMART-LINK (optional)"] --> B["SMART-LINK audio output (AUX OUT R+L)"]
B --> C["①"]
C --> D["Audio cable (optional)"]
D --> E["Vehicle AUX input"]

By using an audio cable (sold separately), connect the audio output of the SMARTLINK module to the vehicle AUX input.
NOTE:
Make sure the audio source on the factory system is set to AUX mode (not AM/FM/Bluetooth). Also, if your smartphone is set to automatically connect to your factory bluetooth, make sure you void the connection. One way is to forget the device (your vehicle) on your phone. This will avoid Smart-Play connection interferences. If you are using the wireless feature and notice degraded audio or video quality, switch to the wired alternative, for it is a higher quality connection, unlike bluetooth.
CONNECTING THE SMART-PLAY INTERFACE:
The ACPBM-77Y utilizes wireless technology for Apple devices. Android devices are required to be plugged in to the USB port using the smartphone's OEM charger/data cable. The USB port on the ACPBM-77Y can be used to charge the Apple device or play videos or music from a USB thumb drive In the vehicle's Media menu, activate AUX Input to get the Smart-Play sound through the vehicle's audio
Switch the vehicle's audio source to the AUX source. This will allow us to hear the Smart-Play audio through the audio system. Hold the "MENU" button for 3-5 seconds to enter forced view mode.
A short press of the "MEDIA" button will toggle through the video sources. Each short press will toggle to the next enabled input. If all inputs are enabled the order is:
Rear CAM > Video Input (Smart-Play) > Repeat ...
To exit the Smart-Play menu, hold the "Menu" button for 3-5 sec
