INSTALLATION
Locating your vehicles ODB-II port
Use the guide below to locate your vehicle’s ODB-II port. Some vehicle’s port may be
located in other locations not listed below. Always refer to your vehicle’s owner’s manual to confirm where the ODB-II port is located.
Location | Vehicle |
A | GM, Volkswagen, BMW, Ford, Toyota, Hyundai, Citreon and most vehicles. |
B | Volkswagen Touran, Lexus and other models |
C | Citreon and other rare models |
D | Citreon and other rare models |
E | Geely GX7, Geely Vision SUV and other rare models |
Before First Use
1. Place the non-slip mat on the driver’s side corner of the dashboard and then place the head up display (HUD) on it.
2. Ensure vehicle is ODB-II or EUOBD compatible and connect the supplied cable to the 16-pin connector (usually under the steering wheel, consult vehicle’s user manual if unsure).
3. Connect the cable to the ODB-II input on the unit.
4. Place the power switch in the on position.
Note: Once the HUD’s switch has placed in the on position, it is designed to automatically power on and off with the vehicle’s accessory power.
5. Start the engine and the HUD will power on.
6. Allow 1 minute for software to sync and display voltage, fuel consumption, RPM, etc.
Reflective Film
The HUD projects information up onto the windscreen. Due to the construction of your windscreen, the HUD may create a double reflection on the windscreen, which will make it difficult to read. If this occurs, install the reflective film.
1. Spray some water onto the inside of your windscreen above where the HUD is installed. Clean the area with a dry cloth.
2. Remove the backside (marked 1) of the film and apply to the windscreen. 3. Ensure the film is installed in the correct location and adjust if necessary.
4. Use a flat plastic object (credit card) to squeeze out any water or bubbles from behind the reflective film.
5. Remove the protective film (marked 2).
6. If the reflective film isn’t positioned to display all the vehicle information, adjust the position of the HUD and non-slip mat until it is correctly aligned.

Reset setting
Long pull up and hold. When all LEDs are illuminated, the HUD has restored factory settings.
A vehicle’s instrument cluster has an offset value meaning the value displayed on the factory instrument cluster Is slightly higher than that computed by the vehicle. This offset value Is different for different vehicle manufacturers. As a result, the following table is included from a large range of test data. If you find the value on your dashboard is different to the value displayed by the HUD, you can change it through the following procedure.
