Do I need the external microphone?
Yes, the external microphone will always perform better than the integrated microphone.
Can I use my OEM microphone?
Yes, you can manually wire the OEM microphone into A19 and A20 (refer to the wiring diagram under Socket Name A).
How do I improve external microphone quality?
Disable the internal microphone so it does not interfere.
- Newer motherboards (from March 2023) support switching between internal and external mics in software:
Go to Settings → Factory Settings → 168 → Microphone Switch. - Older motherboards require physically removing the internal mic; otherwise, both mics will run simultaneously.
What is TEYES Voice Control?
It is similar to Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa, designed for your TEYES head unit. The software comes pre-activated on all CC3 units.
Can I map Siri or Google Assistant to a steering wheel button instead of TEYES Voice?
No, this is not officially supported. Some users have installed Google Voice from the Play Store and uninstalled TEYES Voice as a workaround.
