Tips and Troubleshooting

This will not affect your ability to use wireless Android Auto, as you will still be connecting to the TV Adapter and not directly to your car. this is normal do not worry.
If issues occur:
Restart your phone and TV Adapter.
Remove the TV Adapter from your phone's Bluetooth settings and re-pair it.
Reset the TV Adapter to factory settings if needed.
