Installation instruction for Carplay Android Auto interface
Range Rover Evoque 201 5-2017 with touchscreen
The interface is connected via a connection plug on the radio. It is
estimated that it takesabout 30-45 minutes of work to connect the interface. No
programming is necessary.
Step 1 Disconnect the battery
To be on the safe side, disconnect the battery first. In that case, make sure that the
locks no longer work!
Step 2. Remove narrow plastic parts next to the center console (unplug)
Snap off both narrow plastic parts next to the center console. Two torx screws are
released (size 30).
Step 3a. System WITH CD-player (beneath the screen)
Remove center console (screws and unplug)
Remove the two torx screws (size 20) on the bottom of the center console. Then plug
the center console off. Disconnect three rectangular plugs on both sides and in the
middle (tabs press and pull). Note: the plug in the middle has an extra locking. First
pull this (red) lock first out a bit. Set the console aside or rotate it so that you can pull
the radio forward.

Step 4. Connect the interface (plug in)
Connect the big black connector and the videocable labeled "to OEM radio" to the
radio. Connect the released video cable to the video cable labeled "to OEM monitor".
Connect the WIFI antenna, the purple and blue video plugs and the white powerplug
to the interface.
Step 5. Prepare for testing
Choose AUX as a source for sound in the OEM-system.
Remove the existing bluetooth connection with the car.
Connect the phone to the bluetooth signal of the interface and put WIFI on.
The bluetooth connection will create a WIFI-network and disconnect itself after that.
Step 6. Test the system (operation)
Test the system with regard to graphics, sound, switching between radio and
interface and reverse switching. Activate the system via the HOME button.
The dip switches are standard at 00010000 (0 = OFF, 1 is ON).
In case the display is shifted, try 000 00000 or 00001000. After modification, pull out
the power plug and put it back in.
Step 7. Close the system again (clicks, screws)
Step 8. Enjoy!
