The vehicle-specific fascia provides a clean and integrated appearance within the Hyundai dashboard, while the supplied steering wheel control interface and patch lead allow the compatible Pioneer head unit to communicate with the vehicle's original steering wheel controls.
Hyundai iLoad Factory Feature Retention
One of the key advantages of combining the Pioneer DMH-AP6850BT with the correct Aerpro AKHY6 installation kit is the ability to retain important factory functionality without relying on generic aftermarket wiring.
Steering Wheel Controls
The AKHY6 retains the factory Hyundai iLoad and iMax steering wheel controls, allowing compatible audio functions to continue to be operated from the steering wheel after the Pioneer head unit is installed.
Factory Reverse Camera
The AKHY6 specification does not provide factory reverse camera retention. If the vehicle is equipped with a factory camera, compatibility should be confirmed before installation.
Factory AUX & USB
The AKHY6 does not retain the factory AUX or USB inputs according to its vehicle feature retention specification. The Pioneer DMH-AP6850BT provides its own modern USB connectivity for compatible smartphones and media devices.
Factory Amplifier
The AKHY6 is not designed for vehicles with a factory amplifier. The installation kit specification identifies factory amplifier retention as not supported.
Pioneer DMH-AP6850BT 9-Inch Touchscreen
The Pioneer DMH-AP6850BT features a large 9-inch WSVGA capacitive touchscreen with a 1,024 x 600 resolution display.
The large touchscreen provides a clear and responsive interface for Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth, music, navigation and compatible connected applications.
For a commercial van such as the Hyundai iLoad or passenger-focused Hyundai iMax, the larger display provides a substantial upgrade over the smaller factory radio interface.
Wireless Apple CarPlay
The Pioneer DMH-AP6850BT provides wireless Apple CarPlay, allowing compatible iPhones to connect to the head unit without requiring a USB cable.
Apple CarPlay provides access to supported navigation, music, phone and messaging applications through the Pioneer touchscreen. Compatible applications can include Apple Maps, Google Maps, Waze, Spotify, Apple Music and other supported services.

Wireless Android Auto
Compatible Android smartphones can connect to the DMH-AP6850BT using wireless Android Auto or a wired connection.
Android Auto provides access to compatible navigation, music, calls, messages and supported applications through the 9-inch Pioneer display.
For customers searching for a Hyundai iLoad Android Auto head unit or Hyundai iMax Android Auto stereo, the DMH-AP6850BT provides a modern touchscreen solution with wireless smartphone integration.
Bluetooth 5.4 Connectivity
Built-in Bluetooth 5.4 provides wireless connectivity for compatible smartphones and other devices.
Bluetooth can be used for hands-free phone calls and wireless audio streaming, allowing the driver to remain connected without handling their smartphone while driving.
Dual AHD Camera Inputs
The Pioneer DMH-AP6850BT features dual AHD 1.0 camera inputs, providing additional flexibility for compatible aftermarket camera installations.
This can be particularly useful in Hyundai iLoad and iMax applications where additional vehicle cameras may be desirable, including reverse cameras or other aftermarket camera systems.
Camera compatibility and installation requirements will depend on the camera system being used and the specific vehicle configuration.
Premium Pioneer Audio Processing
The DMH-AP6850BT is more than a touchscreen display. It incorporates advanced Pioneer audio processing designed to provide a strong foundation for a complete Hyundai iLoad sound system upgrade or Hyundai iMax audio upgrade.
