simply connect the Camera's red power line 12V+ to the vehicles reverse tail lights and the
black wire to Ground. Connect RCA video cable to Camera's side and Monitor's Side and then
attach Monitor's Red power line 12V+ to reverse gear which can be an accessory switch/fuse

BACK-UP CAMERA INSTALLATION
1. Locate a good place to mount the camera. Make sure that the camera's field of vision is free
of obstructions (bumpers, hitches, etc.). The camera should be positioned as close to the
center of the vehicle as possible.
2. Secure the camera to the vehicle. The backup camera is designed to be mounted to the
license plate frame by mounting hardware (NOT INCLUDED).
3. Locate the vehicle's reverse light wire. This can easily be found at the reverse light bulb or at
the trailer harness if your car is equipped with one. Test this wire with a multi-meter. It should
have 0 volts when the car is in all gears, and 12 volts in reverse.
4. Solder together the camera's power wire to the vehicle's reverse wire. Seal the connection
with electrical tape. Find a clean metal surface to ground to, and attach the camera's ground
wire with the cordless drill and a self tapping screw.
5. Run the camera's signal wire to the monitor. Test by putting the vehicle in reverse and
watching for a video signal.
