Introduction
Congratulations on purchasing a Rear View Backup Camera
System! With this manual you will be able to properly install and
operate the unit.
The Backup Camera System is intended to be installed as a
supplement aid to your standard rear view mirror that already ex-
ists in your vehicle. The Backup Camera System should not be
used as a substitute for the standard rear view mirror or for any
other mirror that exists in your vehicle.
In some jurisdictions, it is unlawful for a person to drive a
motor vehicle equipped with a TV viewer or screen located for-
ward of the back of the driver’s seat or in any location that is vis-
ible, directly or indirectly, to the driver while operating the
vehicle.

Please read the entire manual and follow the instructions and
warnings carefully. Failure to do so can cause serious damage
and/or injury, including loss of life. Be sure to obey all applica-
ble local traffic and motor vehicle regulations as it pertains to
this product. Improper installation will void manufacturer’s
warranty.
USAG
•The Rear View Camera System
is designed to help the driver
safely detect people and/or
objects helping to avoid
damage or injury. However,
you the driver, must use it
properly. Use of this system is
not a substitute for safe,
proper or legal driving.
•Never back up while looking
at the monitor alone. You
should always check behind
and around the vehicle when
backing up, in the same way
as you would if the vehicle
did not have the Rear View
Camera System. If you back
up while looking only at the
monitor, you may cause
damage or injury. Always
back up slowly.
•The Rear View Camera
System is not intended for
use during exstensive back-up
maneuvers or backing into
cross traffic or pedestrian
walkways.
•Please, always remember,
the area displayed by the
Rear View Camera System is
limited. It does not display
the entire panorama that is
behind you.

Before Beginning Installation
Before drilling please check that no cable or wiring is on the
other side of the wall. Please clamp all wires securely to reduce
the possibility of them being damaged while vehicle is in use.
Keep all cables away from hot or moving parts and electrical
noisy components.
Step 1: Choose the monitor and camera locations.
Step 2: Install all cables in vehicle, when necessary a 0.8 (20mm)
hole should be drilled for passing camera cable through vehicles
walls. Install split grommets where applicable.
Step 3: Once all cables and wiring have been properly routed and
the system has paired, perform a system function test by tem-
porarily connecting the system. If the problem persists see trou-
bleshooting (page 20).
We recommend doing a benchmark test before installation
to insure that all components are working properly.
SYSTEM COMES PAIRED.
• But if there is no image on monitor, your system is NOT paired
and needs to be paired. (see page 10)
