To start using NEO as the auxiliary adapter, simply connect your audio source to the 3.5mm phone jack
and then turn the audio source ON. You are using EXT2 for NEO AUX cable. Your stereo should be in the
AUX NEO mode. Please refer to the Chapter 3.1 of this manual on the MODE changes.
If the stereo is ON and in the CORRECT MODE – the device will be ready to play. You can control the
connected device using its own controls. Please regulate and adjust the volume on the connected device
for proper audio levels.
You can connect MP3/DVD player, Satellite and many other audio devices that have 3.5 mm plug. If your
device has a different type of connector (RCA, 2.5mm, etc.) you can buy an extension adapter at your
local stereo store or on NEO website.
Note: When the ignition is OFF the adapter will not automatically shut down the AUX-IN device. Please
make sure to turn off the AUX-IN audio source manually. If you plan not to operate your car for one
week and more, please disconnect AUXIN audio source from the adapter. When you are using NEO 4V9
in a different mode other than AUX, please turn off AUX-IN audio source.
Please make sure to connect NEO MiniDin to 3.5mm phone jack cable to the correct Extension port
(EXT2) on NEO module.
3.4.2 BLUETOOTH Dongle – EXT1 port
You can also connect NEO Bluetooth Dongle to the EXT1 or EXT2 port on the NEO 4V9 adapter for the
hands free use of your mobile phone and wireless music play. Please refer to the NEO Bluetooth Dongle
manual that is supplied with your Bluetooth Dongle. You can also access the manual online at NEO Car
Audio website: http://neocaraudio.com/
Note: There is not a select-able Bluetooth MODE when going through the changing of NEO modes.
When Bluetooth A2DP (advanced audio distribution profile) music starts playing, other audio will
mute/pause automatically and A2DP will play. When Bluetooth A2DP music playback is stopped on your
phone, previously selected source will resume playback.
3.5 USB charging of Android phone via NEO USB port
The USB port of the NEO unit itself can supply up to 1.5 Amp of power, yet Android charging while
playing through USB connection is at 0.5amp limitation maximum.
Why does it happen?
Charging (USB) vs. Charging (AC)
When Android device is connected to USB of NEO unit it provides data communication between the
two. This data connection is necessary and tells the phone to charge in USB mode speed which is rated
at 0.5 amp. This is similar to plugging Android device into USB port of computer. This will show up as
"USB" charging in Battery settings of phone.
A typical AC wall USB charger or car charger designed for charging Android device are rated at 1-2 Amp
depending on the device. It also has two data wires shorted together to let phone know it is a "AC"
charger and to charge at full speed 1.0+ amp. This will show up as "AC" charging in Battery settings of
phone.
