Thank you for purchasing Parkmate’s CMD-14N camera. We are certain that our product will
give you trouble-free operation while providing you with a safety feature that enhances your
driving experience.
Our products, like most after-market safety enhanced devices, are to assist and aid the driver,
not to replace the manual function of the person operating the vehicle.
Although this is a visual aid and will allow you to view what is behind the vehicle, it does not
remove the responsibility of driving the vehicle from the driver. The legal responsibility and
safe driving practise remains with the driver at all times. You have purchased this product
with the understanding that its use is as an aid only. We highly recommend that you have
this product professionally installed to ensure that it will provide the functions it is set out to
perform.
