Manual for 10.4" Tesla-style head unit - px3

I have an aftermarket head unit installed in my 2017 Ram 1500. It uses RKpx3 by Rockchip and has 768x1024 resolution. Unfortunately, the "documentation" is poor English/grammar, scant, and almost inscrutable.

Judging by the Phoenix Automotive units I've seen, it's almost identical in terms of function and layout. I have empirically figured out how to work half of the features (e.g., radio, climate control). I really need help with the other half - Nav & phone.

Could someone please steer me to a Phoenix manual that would serve as a "generic" guide for operation. I wouldn't expect it to match perfectly but I suspect it would be 100% better than what I have.

Any help is appreciated.


I posed this as a reply here:

but got no response.

In terms of functionality/settings, PhoenixGod posted these with good pictures:

Unfortunately, there is no narrative discussing why settings should be placed as shown.

By contrast, here’s a Phoenix Automotive video on settings for PX6 where the guy patiently steps through the settings and explains why you should have the setting this way or that:


This is what I’m hoping to see in the manual I seek.
