intended for navigation or driving assistance when
you are driving, an on-screen warning will be
displayed. To watch a video on the Parrot
ASTEROID Tablet's screen, make sure that the
vehicle is stopped in a safe area and that the
parking brake is on.
SD Card
An SD card is included with the Parrot ASTEROID
Tablet. It allows you to store music tracks and
applications which are not already installed on the
Parrot ASTEROID Tablet. The insertion of the SD
card into the Parrot ASTEROID Tablet is
mandatory to use audio-on-demand and
navigation applications.
Installation
Before you begin
Note: We advise our customers to have the Parrot
ASTEROID Tablet fitted by a certified Parrot
installer.
Installing the Parrot ASTEROID Tablet is done by
inserting it between the car stereo and the
vehicle.
Note: If your car stereo is not fitted with ISO
connectors, you need to purchase an ISO adapter
cable to simplify the wiring procedure. Refer to the
Vehicle compatibility section on the Parrot
ASTEROID Tablet support page to check whether an
ISO adapter is necessary on your vehicle.
Start by removing the car stereo from your
vehicle. You may need release keys to do so.
Refer to your car stereo’s wiring diagram.
Before you install the individual components,
check that the installation locations have been
selected in such a way that the cable length is
sufficient to connect every element. Once the
installation is complete, make sure that no cables
are pinched or trapped.
The connection number indications in the next
sections correspond to the connections
represented on the diagrams p.6 / 7.
Connecting the audio cable
Join the vehicle audio cable to the connector of
the Parrot ASTEROID Tablet (Connections 1A
and 2).
If your vehicle is equipped with an amplifier, use
the Front and Rear Line Out outputs on the
electronic box to avoid saturation problems such
as popping in the speakers, background noise etc.
Use one or two jack cable(s) to connect the Parrot
ASTEROID Tablet Line out outputs to your
vehicle audio system (diagram p.7).
Connecting the power cable
1.
Unplug the battery before installing the
power cable.
2.
Connect the ISO male connectors of the
Parrot ASTEROID Tablet to the car stereo
(Connection 3).
3.
Join the vehicle’s power supply cable to the
ISO female connector of the Parrot
ASTEROID Tablet (Connection 4).
The red wire of the Parrot ASTEROID Tablet
cable must correspond to the constant +12V
supply, the orange wire to the ignition +12V and
the black wire to ground. Check that the orange
wire is not connected to the constant +12V supply,
as you could run down the vehicle’s battery.
