MULTI-MEDIA INTERFACE TESTER INSTRUCTIONS

The 07130-10100 Kia Multi-Media Interface Tester (MIT) was developed to test a vehicle's audio input and Bluetooth® functions. The MIT outputs three distinct audio files to test the AUX/Line-In, Bluetooth, and USB functions of the audio system. The operation of each function is confirmed by the technician via these recordings played back through the vehicle's audio system.

POWER CABLE CONNECTION

Connect the updated 12 Volt Power Adapter/Cable to the MIT USB connection.

TESTING THE AUX/LINE-IN FUNCTION

Setup:

Connect the 12-Volt Power Adapter/Cable to the accessories power port.
Connect the AUX and USB cables from the MIT to the AUX/USB/IPOD Port on the vehicle.
Press and release the TEST SELECTOR button until the MIT AUX LED illuminates.
Vehicle should default to AUX input. Audio playback confirms that the audio input jack test is working correctly.
NOTE: Volume levels may vary depending on vehicle's audio system.

TESTING THE USB FUNCTION

Connect the 12 Volt Power Adapter/Cable to the accessories power port.
Connect the AUX and USB cables from the MIT to the AUX/USB/IPOD Port on the vehicle.
Press and release the TEST SELECTOR button until the MIT's USB LED illuminates.
Vehicle should default to USB input. Audio playback confirms that the USB input test is working correctly.
NOTE: Volume levels may vary depending on vehicle's audio system.

PERFORMING A TEST-CALL

Confirm pairing is complete (Bluetooth ® LED will be in a quick flash mode). If Bluetooth ® LED is not in quick flash mode (solid light), press and release PAIR/CALL button to enable quick flash mode.
Press and release PAIR/CALL button to test Bluetooth® functionality.
Use the vehicle controls to answer the call. After recording confirms a "working" Bluetooth® system, use the vehicle controls to end the call.
NOTE:
- Some audio units may need the MIT set as "Priority 1" for the test-call to complete.
- To perform another test-call, repeat steps 2 & 3. The MIT will remain paired after the call is ended. Place the MIT in Bluetooth mode and press and release the Pair button to re-connect.
- When re-testing the Bluetooth pairing capability with the same audio head unit, the MIT must be reset by disconnecting the USB power cable and reconnecting.
NOTE: When testing is complete, delete MIT from the audio system before returning the vehicle to the customer.
