tion instructions do not apply to all types of vehicles, and are written as
guidelines to assist in installing the system. Please consult an experienced
technician if you are not comfortable installing the product. Prior to using and
installing the Backup Camera System, please read the safety information
provided in this user manual. Be sure to use the product as outlined in this user
manual. Altercation or modifications carried out without appropriate

• The Digital Backup Camera is designed as an aid to the driver in detecting
potentially hazardous driving conditions, obstructions, and large stationary
objects. You, the driver, must also remember to drive safely and properly.
Use of the Digital Backup Camera is not a substitute for safe, proper and
legal driving practices.
• Never back up while looking only at your connected monitor display
screen. You should always check behind and around the vehicle when
backing up just as you would if the vehicle did not have the Digital Backup
Camera. Always make sure your driving area is clear. Always back up slowly
and with caution.
• Never depend on the Backup Camera entirely when backing up. The image
on the monitor display screen may be slightly different from actual and real
time conditions. Objects viewed in the rear view monitor differ from actual
distances because a wide-angle lens is used. So use the camera as an aid
and always follow intended driving practices to properly judge distances
from objects.
• The Backup Camera's assisted low lux lighting performance feature is also
an aid to a driver. Always use your own eyes to confirm the vehicle’s
surroundings, as the displayed image may be not well lit or not entirely
visible. Always proceed with caution and perform double checks before
proceeding.

• The area displayed by the Backup Camera is limited. It does not display
objects that are close to or just below the bumper, underneath the vehicle,
or objects out of the camera’s view.
The camera's view can change according to your vehicle's orientation on
the road or changing road conditions.
• Be sure to check the camera is properly functioning, is properly positioned
and securely mounted, every time you operate your vehicle.
• Make sure your trunk or hatch operates correctly, as intended, before and
after installation.
• Proceed with caution when cleaning your vehicle around the camera.
Avoid excess water exposure around the camera especially with spraying or
a power washer.
• Please make sure to keep the camera clean and unobstructed from any
debris
• Follow all traffic laws and motor vehicle regulations.
• Consult local laws and regulations for any restrictions on installation or use.
• Using a Backup Camera System is not adequate enough to completely
eliminate a vehicle’s blind spot. Always remember to drive with caution,
following all traffic laws.
System Installation and Wiring
Camera System installation on diesel vehicles may require a slightly different
wiring install. These installation instructions do not apply to all types of
vehicles. They are meant only as a general guide due to the large number of
vehicle makes and models. Consult your local motor vehicle laws on the use
of this product to be sure it is permitted. Through installation of this backup
camera system, you should be sure as to not degrade, damage or
compromise the safety of any system or device on your vehicle. Improper
installation and wiring of the vehicle back-up camera system may damage
the vehicle's electrical system, including vital vehicle computer and
operating systems. That could lead to an accident or fire, causing property
damage and /or serious personal injury. It is highly recommended to seek
professional installation advice from a qualified auto electrician or, in the
alternative, to have the installation performed by a qualified auto electrician.

Please ensure that your monitor is secured and mounted where it would NOT
obstruct any OEM vehicle safety features. In an event of an accident,
manufacturer is not responsible for bodily injury caused by the monitor
being a projectile. Select location for mounting the monitor in desired
location. Ensure monitor location will not obstruct your vision while driving.
The manufacturer assumes no liability for damage caused to your vehicle
due to improper installation or use.
Quick Installation:
The backup camera system is compatible with a wide range of vehicles
and video display monitors.
This kit includes necessary wiring and cable connector accessories sufficient
for typical connections. However, additional accessory cables & installation
materials may be necessary for a completely secure and operational backup
camera performance system.
Connect the camera, using the red cable, of the DC 12V power cable, to the
positive 12V reverse tail light in the rear of your car. You may need to
temporarily remove an interior panel or other cover. Then, connect the black
wire, of the DC 12V power cable, and ground properly. This connected power
and ground cable connects to the camera, and will supply power to the
camera directly. (Red wire is positive, black wire is negative)
Then use the included yellow RCA video connector cable, and run that cable
to the yellow RCA video connector jack of the camera, to the RCA video
connector of a compatible video display monitor.
*The system includes an additional video input connection, so you will have
the ability to connect an additional video input source. The input source is
then selectable via button on the mirror monitor assembly. (V1/V2)
Caution: This unit is designed to operate on a 12V/24V DC NEGATIVE
GROUND electrical systems. Connecting to other types of electrical
systems will cause damage to your vehicle. Please contact the
manufacturer if you are unaware of the system type in your vehicle.

Connect the monitor using the included power and video wiring harness.
Using the red cable, of the power and video wiring harness, connect to your
vehicle's fuse panel (preferably to the 12V ignition switch) - which will only
be powered when your vehicle is on, or activated by key. Then connect the
black wire, of the DC 12V input, and ground properly. The green wire, on the
power and video wiring harness, is the 12V reverse gear positive trigger,
which will provide a picture, to the mirror video monitor assembly, when the
gear is placed in reverse. The power and video wiring harness then connects
to the mirror video monitor assembly. This connection will supply power to
the monitor directly.
*Refer to the installation / wiring diagram in the manual
Notes
• Determine the best location for the camera (The camera is preferably
mounted just above the license plate).
• Be sure when running the connection cables to leave a small amount of
slack so you can still move the camera around the license plate, if you
decide to slightly adjust the camera's positioning at a later time.
• After installation test the camera before use. Placing your vehicle in reverse
should provide a picture in the monitor within the rearview mirror assembly.
• Never connect the car monitor to cigarette lighters in vehicles with 24V DC
power
• Do not expose the monitor to high humidity levels, dust, steam, smoke or
excessive direct sunlight.
• Turn the power OFF when not in use.
• Please refer to service from a qualified and professional service engineer
when needed.
Mount the camera in the desired location, then connect the included RCA
video cable, from the camera, and run the cable through to your video
display's RCA connection. Make sure to route all cables and wiring in the
least obtrusive route possible as to avoid confict with other vehicle circuitry
and to ensure a safe and stable installation/connection.
