Legal Information
By law, watching moving pictures while driving is prohibited, the driver must not be
distracted. We do not accept any liability for material damage or personal injury resulting,
directly or indirectly, from installation or operation of this product. Apart from using this
product in an unmoved vehicle, it should only be used to display fixed menus or rear-view-
camera video when the vehicle is moving (for example the MP3 menu for DVD upgrades).
Changes/updates of the vehicle’s software can cause malfunctions of the interface. Up to
one year after purchase we offer free software-updates for our interfaces. To receive a free
update, the interface has to be sent in at own cost. Wages for de-and reinstallation and
other expenditures involved with the software-updates will not be refunded.
1. Prior to installation
Read the manual prior to installation. Technical knowledge is necessary for installation. The
video interface’s place of installation must be free of moisture and away from heat sources.
Before the final installation in the vehicle of the video sources, we recommend a test-run
to ensure the compatibility of vehicle and interface. Due to changes in the production of
the vehicle manufacturer there’s always a possibility of incompatibility.
1.1. Delivery contents
Take down the serial number of the interface and store this manual for support
purposes: ____________________

1.3. Boxes and connectors –video interface
The video-interface converts the video signals of connected after-market sources in a factory
monitor compatible picture signal which is inserted in the factory monitor, by using separate
trigger options. Further it reads the vehicle’s digital signals out of the vehicle’s CAN-bus and
converts them for the video interface.

1.4. Settings - 8 Dip switches (black)
Some settings have to be selected by the dip-switches on the
video interface. Dip position down is ON and position up is OFF.
Set all dip switches to OFF
After each Dip-switch-change a power-reset of the Video interface has to be performed!
2. Installation
To install the interface, first switch off the ignition and disconnect the vehicle’s battery.
Please read the owner`s manual of the car, regarding the battery`s disconnection! If
required, enable the car`s Sleep-mode (hibernation mode)
In case the sleep-mode does not succeed, the disconnection of the battery can be done
with a resistor lead.
As with any installation of retrofit equipment, a stand-by test is neccessary after the
installation of the video interface, to ensure that the unit also switches off after reaching
the vehicle‘s sleep mode.
Before the final installation, we recommend a test-run of the interface. Due to changes in
the production of the vehicle manufacturer, there’s always the possibility of
incompatibility.
2.1. Place of connection
The video interface has to be connected at a suitable location behind the vehicle`s head-unit.
