for

safe,

proper

and

legal

driving.

•

Adhere

to

all

applicable

laws

and

motor

vehicle

regulations

applicable

to

the

device

and

consult

local

laws

and

regulations

for

any

restrictions

on

installation

or

use.

•

Never

allow

children

to

play

with

the

device. Small

parts

may

be a

choking

hazard.

• ALWAYS

engage

Parking/Emergency/Hand

Brakes

of

the

vehicle

when

testing

the

system.

•

The

area

displayed

by

the

reversing

camera

system

is

limited.

The

system

cannot

display

objects

that

are

close

to

or

below

the

bumper,

underneath

the

vehicle,

or

objects

out

of

the

camera's

field

of

view.

The area

displayed

on

the

screen

may

vary

according

to

vehicle

orientation

or

road

conditions.

•

The

colors

of

objects

on

the

rear

view

monitor

may

differ

somewhat

from

those

of

the

actual

object.

•

Be

sure

to

check

the

camera's

position

and

mounting

angle

before

each use.

•

If

the

back

of

the

vehicle

is

hit,

the

position

and

mounting

angle

of

the

Digital

Backup Camera

may

change,

and

need

to

be

readjusted.

•

When

washing

the

vehicle

with

high

pressure

water,

be

sure

not

to

spray

it

around

the

camera.

Otherwise,

water

may

enter

the

camera

unit

causing

water

condensation

on

the

lens,

malfunction

or

fire.

• Do

not

strike

the

camera.

It

is a

precision

instrument.

Otherwise,

it

may

malfunction

or

cause

damage.

• This

product

will

only

provide

images

of

items

that

are

within

the

field

of

view

of

the

camera.

Thus,

it

is

imperative

that

the

camera

should

be

kept

clean

and

unobstructed,

and

should

be

mounted

so

that

its

field

of

view

includes

the

entire

area

behind

your

vehicle.

•

There

is a

plastic

cover

over

the

camera.

Do

not

scratch

the

cover

when

cleaning

dirt,

dust

or

snow

from

the

cover.

•

Do

not

use

alcohol,

petrol

or

thinner

to

clean

the

camera.

This

will

cause

discoloration.

To

clean

the

camera,

wipe

with

a

clean

cloth

dampened

with

mild

cleaner

diluted

with

water

and

then

wipe

with

a

dry

cloth.

1 888 941 3060

Safety Information

• The camera has a

water

resistant construction.

Do

not

detach, disassemble

or

modify

it.

This may cause incorrect operation. Camera

is

waterproof.

• Do

not

submerge camera in water, which

can

cause internal damage

to

the

camera.

•

Never

back

up

while

looking

only

at

the

screen.

You

should

always check

behind

and

around

the

vehicle

when

reversing. Always make sure

your

intended

path

is

clear.

If

you

back up

while

looking only at

the

monitor, you may

hit

a vehicle, pedestrian, child, pet,

or

other

object

resulting in damage,

injury

or

death. Always reverse slowly.

• Never depend on

the

reversing system

entirely

when

reversing up. Objects viewed in

the

rear

view

monitor

differ

from

actual distance because

the

wide-angle

lens

is

used. Use

the

inside

mirror

or

glance

over

your

shoulder

to

properly

judge

distances

to

other

objects.

•

Make

sure

the

trunk,

hatch,

or

backdoor

is

completely

and

securely

closed

when

reversing.

•

If

the

temperature

changes rapidly, such

as

when

hot

water

is

poured

on

the

vehicle in

cold weather,

the

system may

not

operate normally. The Digital Camera

can

withstand

the

effects

of

rain, snow, and inclement weather.

•

When

strong

light

directly

enters

the

camera

or

screen,

objects

may

not

be displayed

clearly.

• The screen may flicker

under

fluorescent light.

Safety Around and Behind

Other

Vehicles

• Using a Backup Camera is

not

enough

to

completely

overcome

a

vehicle's

blind

spot.

Many

preventable injuries and deaths occur in driveways

or

parking lots

when

drivers do

not

see children, pets,

or

others

near

their

vehicles. Here are a

few

safety tips

that

will

help you

to

avoid a back-over accident.

•

Walk

completely

around

your

vehicle

before

getting

in. Check

for

kids, toys, and

pets

before entering

the

vehicle and starting

the

engine.

• Know where children are. Have children stand in a place where

they

are in full view.

•

Be

aware

of

young children. Young children are small and hard

to

see.

• Parents, caregivers and all

adults

need

to

be

vigilant

in supervising

children,

especially

when children are in

the

yard, driveway

or

parking

lot

playing near parked cars.

• Roll

down

your

window

so

you

will

be

able

to

hear

what

is

happening

outside

your

vehicle.

• Owners

of

SUVs,

trucks, and vans need

to

take extra care

to

avoid

hitting

or

running over

a child.

• Teach children

to

move away

from

a vehicle whenever

it

is

started.

Installation

This

is

how

this

product

works

Both the camera and the

monitor

are powered

by

You

don't

need a 12V

socket or

to

wire the monitor into the fuse box.

Quick connectors are used

for

easy

connection.

When you reverse

your

car,

the

reverse

light

is

on and

will

provide

power

to

the

camera and monitor,

and

the back view image will appear automatically.

1. During installation you may be required

to

remove interior panels

to

run

the

camera cable from outside to inside the trunk. Panels and the retaining methods

vary from vehicle

to

vehicle, and are too varied

to

be covered

in

this document.

However, most panels are either secured with screws or spring loaded retaining

clips and can be unscrewed or carefully removed by levering. Care should be

taken

in

removing panels to make sure the panel won't distort or break.

2.

A set

of

pliers, a flat screwdriver and a screwdriver or spanner,

to

remove

the

license plate are required during the installation.

3.

A power drill might be required for drilling a small hole for routing

the

camera

cable.
