III. Troubleshooting Common Issues
If you experience audio static or interference, try adjusting the FM frequency on both your car radio and the Lihan transmitter. Select an unused FM frequency to minimize interference from local radio stations. Ensure the transmitter is securely plugged into the 12V power outlet for consistent power. If the Bluetooth connection is unstable or drops frequently, check the distance between your phone and the transmitter; ensure there are no obstacles blocking the signal. Also, verify that no other Bluetooth devices are interfering. If your device isn’t charging, check the charging port and cable for any damage or debris. Ensure the charging source is functioning correctly and that the transmitter is properly connected. If you’re unable to pair your device, make sure Bluetooth is enabled on both your phone and the Lihan transmitter. Try restarting both devices; sometimes, a simple reset is all that’s needed. If the hands-free calling feature isn’t working, ensure the microphone is not obstructed and that the volume is adequately adjusted on both your phone and the car’s audio system. If problems persist after trying these steps, refer to the FAQ section or contact Lihan customer support for further assistance. Remember to consult your specific Lihan model’s manual for detailed troubleshooting guides tailored to your device.

VI. Using Hands-Free Calling
Your Lihan Bluetooth FM transmitter enhances safety and convenience by enabling hands-free calling. Once your smartphone is paired with the transmitter via Bluetooth, incoming calls will be routed through the device. A built-in microphone ensures clear voice transmission, while noise suppression technology minimizes background noise for improved call quality. To answer a call, simply press the multi-function button on the transmitter. This button typically serves as a one-touch answer/hang-up control. To reject a call, press and hold the button for a specified duration, usually a short press. To redial the last number, a short press of the button will initiate the redial process. The transmitter’s user manual should outline precise instructions for call management. Ensure your smartphone’s Bluetooth settings are correctly configured for hands-free calling, and that the volume levels are appropriately adjusted both on your phone and the transmitter for optimal audio clarity. Remember, safe driving practices should always be prioritized. Avoid engaging in lengthy conversations that might distract from driving. For detailed instructions and troubleshooting tips, refer to the complete user manual provided with your Lihan FM transmitter.
VII. Playing Music via Bluetooth
Playing music through your Lihan Bluetooth FM transmitter is straightforward. After successfully pairing your smartphone or other Bluetooth-enabled device with the transmitter, open your preferred music app. The audio will automatically stream wirelessly to the transmitter, which then broadcasts the music signal via FM radio waves. Tune your car radio to the same frequency selected on the transmitter; this ensures optimal signal reception and reduces interference. Most Lihan models offer controls on the device itself for basic music playback functions. These typically include play/pause, and potentially track skipping functions. If your device has a dedicated button, a short press will usually initiate playback or pause the current track. The user manual will detail specific button functionality and combinations for advanced control. Remember to select an unused FM frequency to avoid interference from local radio stations. Adjust the volume levels on both your device and the car stereo to achieve your desired listening level. Experiment with different FM frequencies if you experience static or poor sound quality. For optimal audio performance, ensure a strong Bluetooth connection between your device and the transmitter, and keep the device within a reasonable distance to maintain a stable signal. Consult your Lihan FM transmitter’s user manual for detailed instructions and troubleshooting steps if needed.
VIII. Charging Your Devices
Many Lihan Bluetooth FM transmitters incorporate USB charging ports, offering a convenient way to power your mobile devices while driving. These ports often support fast charging technologies, such as QC3.0, enabling quicker charging times compared to standard USB ports. To charge your device, simply connect its charging cable to the appropriate USB port on the transmitter. Ensure the cable is securely connected to both the device and the transmitter to prevent loose connections and interrupted charging. The transmitter’s user manual should specify the supported charging protocols and maximum output power for each USB port. Be aware of the charging capabilities of your device; using a fast-charging port with a device not supporting fast charging may not significantly reduce charging time and could potentially cause minor issues. Observe the charging indicator lights on the transmitter to confirm that charging is active. If the charging indicator is not illuminated, double-check that the cable is properly seated and that the device is receiving power. Avoid leaving your devices plugged in unnecessarily for extended periods after they’re fully charged, as this may slightly reduce their battery lifespan. For optimal charging performance, use a high-quality charging cable compatible with both the transmitter and your device. If you encounter any charging problems, refer to your Lihan FM transmitter’s user manual for troubleshooting assistance or contact Lihan customer support.
