The NAV-TV SteerBlue interface gives you the ability to control your mobile Smartphone or Tablet from
your factory steering wheel controls. This is a great option if you have a Tablet mounted in your
dashboard for control of volume up and down, track up and down, pause & play, as well as device
dependent voice recognition, home screen or task manager. The interface must be used in conjunction
with a vehicle compatible steering wheel control interface from PAC©, Metra© or iDatalink© and is
limited to these devices' ability to properly deliver steering wheel command information to the
SteerBlue interface.

Compatible with the following SWC interfaces:

b. Pin 1 (yellow) to a constant 12v source
c. Pin 2 (red) to a 12v ignition source

function on your smart-device. With the car on, do a scan for devices and ‘NAVTV-[#]’ should
show up. Select the 'NAVTV-[#]' and allow your Tablet or Smartphone to connect to it. The
