FAQ:
.
Q1. How do I know if this kit is compatible to my car?
A2. Please find your vehicle under the compatibility list. If your vehicle is not in the list, it is not compatible.
Q2. Does it matter what sound system I have in the car?
A2. It does not matter what sound system you have in your car, as long as it is a factory equipped system.
Q3. Is TIF-02 all I need to mirror my iPhone?
A3. You need to purchase these three iPhone related accessories separately and combine them with the IF-02BEP to complete the installation.
1. Apple Lightning Digital AV Adapter (Part Number: MD826AM/A)
2. Lightning to USB Charging Cable (4 inches Lighting to USB)
3. Lighting Extension Cable (3 feet Plug to Socket)

- Wireless Display HDMI adapter with Miracast (Actiontec ScreenBeam Mini2 / SBWD60A01)
Q5. How do I connect the iPhone or the Android related accessories to the TIF-02BEP?
A5. DIY video is available under the Manuals & Videos section.
Q6. Installing TIF-02 in my car, will it void my factory warranty?
A6. The entire TIF-02 components will be installed and left behind the radio then the dealer has no reason to void your warranty. Unless, however, the car goes in to the dealership to get a stereo/navigation related warranty repair service and the technicians spot the TIF-02B, then they may blame the device.
Q7. Can I connect my iPhone to the TIF-02 wirlessly?
A7. It may be possible to do so by using an Apple TV, but you’ll need a mobile hot spot in your car to establish the wireless connection.
Q8. Can I connect my Android phone to the TIF-02 with the MHL cable? Do I have to go wireless?
A8. Majority of Android phones released after the year 2015 are not MHL supported. This makes it impossible to send A/V data using the MHL cable. The A/V data must be sent via WiFi using a Smart View or the similar screen mirroring features available on your phone.
Q9. Can my iPhone be charged while it is mirrored?
A9. The power consumed while using the iPhone exceeds the charging power that it will slowly drain the battery. Dimming the screen brightness on the iPhone will greatly reduce the consumed power rate and it will not affect the brightness on the factory screen.
Q10. Does it only mirror the phone or I can mirror any device?
A10. It could mirror any device that runs with the latest iOS and Android-ran devices with Miracast and/or mirroring feature by adding an appropriate adapter.
Q11. Will my phone be mirrored automatically when I connect the phone?
A11. Mirrored image is displayed on the factory screen, only when you go into mirroring mode.
A12. It is not technically possible to send HDMI signal straight to the factory screen in HD quality, as the factory screen is only able to read the RCA analog signal. HDMI is digital and able to send video signal without much signal loss, as such the resolution is kept very high. However, the RCA is analog and there’s significant amount of signal loss, as such the resolution is poorer compared to the HDMI. In addition to it, the display quality is highly dependent to the resolution offered on the factory screen.
Q13. What is the difference between Smartphone Mirroring and Carplay/Android Auto?
A13. Here is a great video showing the difference between Smartphone Mirroring and Carplay/Android Auto: https://youtu.be/_7eAk9ekxDI
