• Installation and wiring of this product require specialist skill and experience.
To assure your safety, please request a specialist technician to install the unit.
• Do not attempt to heat the surface of the camera lens or camera lens itself with a lighter and so on when
they have become frozen. This can cause a malfunction.
• This product is a rear view camera for checking the view at the rear of a vehicle. A rear view camera is a
camera that provides symmetrical images in the same way as rear and side view mirrors.
• This product is designed to supplement the driver’s rear view, but the camera images do not show all
dangers and obstacles. Be sure to look behind you when reversing to confirm the view.
• This product features a wide-angle lens, so the near view is wide and the far view is narrow, which may
create a false sense of distance. Be sure to look behind you when reversing to confirm the view.
• Do not wash your vehicle with an automatic car wash or high-pressure water as it may result in water
entering the camera or the camera falling off.
• Check camera stand installation before driving.
Are the screws loose? Is the camera stand firmly secured?
(If the rear view camera comes loose while you are driving it may cause an accident.)
• This product by itself does not display guidelines.
• System is designed for +12 V DC systems only.
• Be cautious when mounting camera and wiring near fuel tank.
ACC position No ACC position
• This unit is for vehicles with a and . 12-volt battery (DC / ) negative grounding
(Before installing it in a recreational vehicle, truck, or bus, check the battery voltage.)
• To avoid short-circuits in the electrical system, be sure to disconnect the battery cable before installation.
• Refer to the owner’s manual for details on connecting the other units, then make connections correctly.
• Secure the wiring with cable clamps or adhesive tape around them where they lie against metal parts.
Route and secure all wiring so it cannot touch any moving parts, such as the gear shift, parking brake and
seat rails. Do not route wiring in places that get hot, such as near the heater outlet. If the insulation of the
wiring melts or gets torn, there is a danger of the the wiring short-circuiting to the vehicle body.
• Do not shorten any leads.
• Never feed power to other equipment by cutting the insulation of the power supply lead of the unit and
tapping into the lead. The current capacity of the lead will be exceeded causing over heating.
• Please request specialist technician for the replacement of the fuse with correct specification.
• To minimize noise locate the TV antenna cable, radio antenna cable and RCA power supply cable as far
away from each other as possible.
• Connection to a TV with an RCA video input is possible, but confirm whether the TV you use has a reverse
gear connection function.
• If this unit is installed in a vehicle that does not have an ACC (accessory) position on the ignition
switch, the red lead of the unit should be connected to a terminal coupled with ignition ON/OFF
operations. If this is not done, the vehicle battery may be drained when you are away from the vehicle
• Cords for this product and those for other products may be different colors even if they have the same
function. When connecting this product to another product, refer to the supplied manuals of both products
and connect cords that have the same function.
