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

Limitations
Video only The interface inserts ONLY video signals into the infotainment. For
inserting Audio signals either the possibly existing factory audio-AUX-
input or a FM-modulator can be used. If 2 audio sources shall be
connected to the infotainment, an additional electronic is necessary to
switch them.
Factory rear-view camera Automatically switching-back from inserted video to factory rear-view
camera is only possible while the reverse gear is engaged. To delay the
switch-back an additional electronic part is required.
After market front camera The front camera will automatically be switched for 5 seconds after
disengaging the reverse gear. A manually front camera switching is
possible by external keypad.
Video input signal Only NTSC video sources compatible
1.2. Checking the compatibility of vehicle and accessories
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.
