Notes on Installation
INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION
The Road Angel Stereo is designed for 12V DC negative ground operation system only. Before installing the unit,
make sure your vehicle is connected to a DC12V negative ground electrcial system.
The negative battery terminal must be disconnected before making connections, which can avoid the chance of
damaging the Road Angel Stereo due to a short circuit
Be sure to connect the colour coded leads correctly according to the diagram on the Road Angel Stereo itself.
Incorrect connection may cause the unit to malfunction or damage the vehicle’s electrical system.
Be sure to connect the speaker (-) leads to the speaker (-) terminals (or vice versa). Do not cross-wire the left and
right speaker channels or to the vehicle’s body.
Do not block vents or radiator panels. Doing so may result in heat build-up inside the unit and may result in a fire.
For Android Auto to work, you need to ground the pink cable labelled “PARK”. Otherwise, Android Auto will not
load. This is a built in safety feature common on all aftermarket headunits with Android Auto.

Other Features
APPLICATIONS
The stereos built on their core functionality by expanding compatibility and enhancing in-car convenience. Both the RA-X722DAB
and RA-X622BT officially support the Road Angel Halo Playback app, enabling smooth integration with compatible dash cameras.
This allows drivers to operate their dash camera directly through the stereo interface, reducing the need to handle a phone.
With the app mirrored onto the stereo’s larger display, users can easily review recorded footage in greater detail, manage files, and
adjust camera settings on the go. This added functionality not only improves accessibility but also enhances safety by keeping
controls centralized within the dashboard. Combined with their existing wireless connectivity and customizable audio features,
these stereos offer a more comprehensive and user-friendly driving experience.
The stereos also allow for the usage of media applications such as Netflix and YouTube*, which require an active internet
connection along with a GPS signal, and the vehicle must be stationary before playback is enabled. This ensures that drivers are not
distracted while the car is in motion, prioritizing safety on the road. Additionally, these systems often integrate with smartphones,
allowing users to stream content, access navigation tools, and use voice commands for a more seamless and hands-free
experience. As in-car technology continues to evolve, these stereos are becoming central hubs for both entertainment and
connectivity, enhancing comfort and convenience for passengers during travel.
It is also possible to install/update applications found on the Google Play Store*.
*CAN ONLY BE USED ON FIRMWARE EQUAL TO OR NEWER THAN: XYZ

Installation Guide
1
INTRODUCTION
It is not practical for us to print a full installation guide for every vehicle as there are thousands of variations. We advise this
installation is carried out by an experienced car audio installer.
You may need a fitting kit for your vehicle, below is an example of such which fits a VW Transporter T6 2015 2019.
The reason you may need a fitting kit is due to the vehicle specific connects not being ISO connections so they may
need adapting. Please consult your local car audio specialist or retailer to obtain such parts
The Road Angel RA-X stereos are standard 2-DIN size and have ISO connections.
This means the stereo will fit any aftermarket parts using ISO components.
