A6 PF: The 2022 Upgrade of ATOTO's Popular A6 Y in the A6 Series, made of Premium Materials, Robust and Durable

• CPU, System & Memory: 8 Core ARM Cortex-A55, 1.6 GHz / Android 10.0 / 2 GB + 32 GB
• Display: Full HD true 7-inch 1024 * 600 QLED screen (brightness 600cd/m2); 5-touch capacitive touchscreen; the viewing angle is a staggering 178°, meaning that even when looking at the screen almost sideways, you can still see the display very clearly, without losing colors and so on - particularly important on a head unit, as you are not seated in front of it when driving. The touch panel is sleek-looking and user-friendly.
• Preamp & DSP : An audio feast with max. 4*45W & RMS 4*24W preamp (drives 4-8 ohm speakers) and Digital Signal Processor with Time Correction, Speed Compensated Volume & 36-band EQ
• GPS/Navigation and GPS Tracking: Online in CarPlay (iOS phone) or Android Auto (Android phones), or directly with map apps on A6 PF; or offline with downloaded maps (built-in GPS). With the TrackHU GPS tracking app installed in your car's stereo, you can easily monitor the whereabouts of your vehicle, regardless of whether it's been lent to a friend or family member, or unfortunately stolen. It offers an effortless way to track the journey and assure the safety of your vehicle. The app not only tracks the journey and safeguards your vehicle but also allows you to keep an eye on the chosen route and speed. Plus, it instantly alerts you via email about geofence entries and exits, as well as the vehicle's online or offline status, making vehicle surveillance effortless and efficient.
• CarPlay, Android Auto & MirrorLink: Supports WIRELESS CarPlay and Android Auto, wired CarPlay and Android Auto, and wireless & wired MirrorLink (CarbitLink)(Some video streaming services (Netflix, AMZ Prime, Disney+, etc.) may not support MirrorLink.)
• 3 Options for Internet Access- Wi-Fi hotspot (2.4 GHz & 5 GHz), Bluetooth tethering and USB tethering (most Android car stereos only offer the Wi-Fi hospot option)
• Dual Bluetooth: BT 1 is Bluetooth 5.0, for hands-free & music streaming, etc.; BT 2 is for Internet access; Bluetooth screen lock, protecting your privacy without sacrificing convenience (see below for details)

• Other Features: Quality sounding FM/AM radio with RBDS; Compatible with OEM steering wheel control, and even supports function mapping to them; HD 720P Front Camera Input; Built-in music/video player assures video resolution up to 1080P and high-quality audio. It supports up to 2TB (2048 GB) USB SSD for multimedia playback. 5 touch keys on the side allow you to make convenient operations.
• System Update: ATOTO continuously provides system updates to improve the system. Download the file to a USB stick to update your A6 PF.

Vehicle Fit (ISO Standard Double DIN)

• A6G2B7PF is a standard double DIN car stereo. And the chassis is designed to be much shorter than the conventional depth (not your typical block-sized head unit), so the benefit is that there is a larger space for cabling and other accessories.
• True 7-inch screen. Typically, dashboard mounting frame suppliers provide double DIN mounting frames with a 174 mm * 98 mm opening. In order to fit into them, the actual screen size of common aftermarket car stereos is limited to 6.75-inch or smaller (false 7-inch). ATOTO is the first manufacturer to introduce true 7-inch car stereos with a minimal screen frame size of 172 mm * 97 mm (fitting the mounting frames commonly available). An extra frame adapter is also included to expand it, if needed, to 178 mm * 101.5 mm. As this is a universal car stereo, extra accessories may be required to finish installation in a specific vehicle (not provided in the package). It is the buyer's responsibility to prepare them (if applicable). They may include (but are not limited to) a dash frame kit, a wiring harness, a radio antenna adapter, a data interface, etc.

Wireless Carplay and Android Auto!

No Division in Your Family Between iOS Phone and Android Phone Users!

Note: *The instructions in the package haven't yet updated the information of wireless CarPlay and Android Auto, but the head unit you get already supports this function.

• CarPlay/Android Auto has revolutionalized the way we drive by enabling us to safely use the iOS/Android phone while driving. Now we can make calls, send/receive messages, listen to music/radio/podcasts/news/audiobook... on the head unit while driving really conveniently. This, in turn, requires a head unit that can adequately meet the demands of these functions in terms of audio and visual performance.
• Regarding audio: on A6 PF, the max. 4*45W amplifier with RMS 4*24W (Vcc=14.4v,THD=10%) makes sure that whether you are making a call, listening to your favorite music or podcasts and so on, you can hear things clearly at a comfortable volume, powerful yet without any distortion. And the included microphone? Well, in our own customer's exact words:"I'm told that the sound is very clear."
• Visually: the full HD 7-inch1024 * 600 QLED screen (brightness 600cd/m2), other than its big size and fantastic color rendition, offers great visibility even in broad daylight. Also, as a 5-touch capacitive touchscreen, it is easy and smooth to operate on.

WIRELESS CarPlay and Wired CarPlay (factory USB cable required for wired connection):

1. Wireless is simply better: No more worries about where to put your plugged phone. No more search for a holder which you find to be superfluous anyway. No more entangled cords to distract you. Free at last!
2. Fast and automatic connection: For wireless CarPlay, the Buetooth connection is quick. And after you make the connection for the first time, it will all be automatic. For wired CarPlay, once you plug your Phone into the "Phone Link" port on A6 PF, it takes about 3 seconds for CarPlay to be automatically launched. A true plug-n-play function.
3. Stable data transmission: Thanks to the premium hardware inside, A6 PF is more than capable of delivering stable and reliable data transmission, both wirelessly (5G Wi-Fi) and wiredly (with USB), which is a strong bolster for you in driving.
4. You phone battery is finally safe: If you get in the car with low battery on your iOS phone, and you start driving using CarPlay, on many head units with only wired CarPlay, after the trip, the battery is barely charged, if at all. This problem does not exist with A6 PF. The reason is that with wireless CarPlay, you can drive using CarPlay while plugging your iOS phone into the USB port dedicated for charging in your vehicle, or putting it on the charging dock station.
5. Navi and Radio/USB music mix: ATOTO A6 PF supports running CarPlay map navigation while playing FM/AM radio/USB music in the background. And you can set the audio mix ratio between them. Be aware that not all car stereos can do this!
6. CarPlay iOS phone compatibility: Wired CarPlay is compatible with iPh0ne 5 or later models with iOS 7.1 or higher. Wireless CarPlay is compatible with iPh0ne 5 or later models with iOS 9.0 or higher.

Android Auto (factory USB cable required):

1. Fast and automatic connection: Once you plug your phone into the "Phone Link" port on A6 PF, it takes about 3 seconds for Android Auto to be automatically launched. A true plug-n-play function.
2. Stable data transmission: Thanks to the premium hardware inside, A6 PF is more than capable of delivering stable and reliable USB data transmission, which is a strong bolster for you in driving.
3. Android Auto phone compatibility: Wired Android Auto is compatible with phones with Android 6.0 or higher.

Limitless Expansion - Make It Look and Function the Way You Like It!

3 Ways to Access the Internet and a Whole Lot of Accessories!

1. Connecting to the phone's hotspot via 2.4 GHz & 5 GHz WiFi (most car stereos only offer WiFi hotspot at 2.4 GHz)

When it comes to Internet access, most Android car stereos offer only one option: WiFi hotspot, and only at 2.4 GHz, a frequency band that is congested due to its wide use (including by electronic appliances). This is where A6 PF stands one cut above the rest with the 5 GHz WiFi, ensuring optimal Internet connection at all times!

2. Bluetooth tethering for saving power

For running online maps or streaming music, a relatively low bandwidth, e.g. 200 kb/s, is enough. Switch to Bluetooth tethering, as it has the advantage of consuming less power than hotspot.

3. USB Network Tethering (an EXCLUSIVE feature from ATOTO)

If you are still insecure about your phone battery, there is a third option. With a USB cable, you can have almost the same bandwidth as with WiFi hotspot, and your phone battery can even charge slightly. You only need to run the app CarbitLink (preinstalled) in the background.

More than 1,000 apps from Google Play Store have been tested compatible with A6 PF, esp. media/entertainment apps and navigation apps in "Auto & Vehicles". Very few developers such as Netflix specify device types for installing their apps. Android car stereos are usually ruled out. Make your A6 PF look and function the way you like it!

TrackHU as ATOTO's exclusive feature has been preinstalled into A6 PF.

Powerful Features: 1.Responsive auto-refreshing rates and real-time global tracking. 2. Accurate location tracking with OsmAnd 4 satellite positioning system (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, Beidou) 3.Track playback with speed control. 4. Detailed driving reports (such as overall mileage, speed, address, etc.). 5. Instant email notifications for geofence entries/exits and online/offline statuses.

Installing an Android Car Stereo is not the equivalent of putting an Android tablet in your vehicle. A6 PF has lots of inputs and outputs customized for it to work better in the vehicle. (Check the picture at the bottom for inputs, outputs & slots.) A few examples of the accessories that you can connect A6 PF to:

• (1)ATOTO AC-44P2 USB On dash 1080 P DVR camera to record video files for preview & playback;
• (2)ATOTO AC-UTP1 USB TPMS tire pressure monitor system to monitor the temperature and pressure of your tires, alerting you both visually and aurally;
• (3)ATOTO AC-HD01LR/AC-HD02LR rear view camera for HD 720P rear view input and Live Rear View (LRV) feature to view the traffic behind even when driving forward; AC-HD03LR is not compatible.
• (4)ATOTO AC-4450 OBD II Diagnostic Scanner /Engine Code Reader via Bluetooth; Compared with single Bluetooth, dual Bluetooth makes communication tasks between multiple Bluetooth connections more balanced and stable.
• (5) headrest monitors using ATOTO Video Output Adaptor (AC-AHV68: USB to HDMI adaptor; AC-AHV48: USB To RCA adaptor; Both are sold separately). A6 PF is dual zone capable, meaning what's displayed on A6 PF can be different from on the headrest monitors, interrupting the kids watching their favorite movie in the backseat as little as possible! (some apps do not support dual zone display) (6)ATOTO AC-44F8 IR remote, for more convenient operation when no original steering wheel controls are available. ATOTO AC-44F5 is not compatible. (7) Game pads via Bluetooth (check for compatibility before purchasing a specific game pad)

An Audio Feast!

A6 PF is equipped with a powerful Digital Signal Processor, which takes the audio experience in the vehicle to a whole new level:

• Time Correction: Because of the distance differences, the time it takes for audio signals from different speakers in the vehicle to reach your ears is different, undermining your listening experience. By correcting the time differences, A6 PF's Time Correction feature makes sure that you hear the sound from each speaker at the same time.
• Speed Compensated Volume: When the speed of your vehicle increases, the ambient noise (road noise, wind, etc.) increases as well. This feature automatically increases (and decreases as the vehicle slows down) the sound coming out of your system to compensate for this phenomenon.
• 36-Band EQ: The number of adjustable bands in the built-in equalizer is a stunning 36. Even the most picky audiophile will feel pandered with so many options. You can really dive in and tune the sound exactly to your liking. The EQ can also be switched to graphic mode, where you can make broad frequency adjustments with just a swipe (kill the lows or the highs, for example).
• Moreover, you can set the crossover points between the subwoofer and the speakers, boost the low end (multiple cutoff points selectable), enhance the stereo sound, and do more! Combined, all these features make sure that your ears enjoy the audio feast they deserve on the road!
