Rear View Safety

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

being damaged while vehicle is in use. Keep all cables away from hot

or moving parts and electrical noisy components.

We recommend doing a benchmark test before installation

to insure that all components are working properly.

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, perform

a system function test by temporarily connecting the system.

Replacement Monitor

The mirror monitor replaces the existing car mirror. Carefully remove

the mirror o the“pin”. Slide the replacement mirror on to the pin and

secure it with the screw provided (already in the screw hole).Dier-

ent cars have dierent brackets, depending on your vehicle make and

manufacturer. There are many methods to remove the original rear-

view mirror, however, please don’t force the mirror o the bracket.

The manufacturer will not be responsible for damage caused to your

car by an improper mirror installation.

Camera & Cable

Be sure to position the cable properly. The aviation camera cable uses

aircraft grade connectors which means the camera cable can be ex-

posed to all weather elements. Do not run the cable over sharp edges,

do not kink the cable, and keep away from HOT and rotating parts.

Fasten all cables and secure all excess cable. Connect camera to the

camera extension cable running inside the vehicle.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Reverse With Condence ™ 11

Wiring

After connecting the camera to the“camera cable”the camera should

be plugged into AV2. Connect the RED 12V power wire to an

ignition power source and the BLACK 12V ground wire to a chassis

ground.The GREEN wire is the REVERSE trigger wire. Connect this wire

to the vehicle’s backup light circuit to activate the rear-view image

whenever the vehicle shifts into reverse. To connect a second camera,

connect it to AV1. It can be turned on by pressing the power button on

the monitor.

Precautions for use of Mirror Monitor

I. The Mirror Monitor is made of glass. Do not subject it to a

mechanical shock by dropping it from a high place, etc.

II. Do not apply excessive force to the monitor surface or the

adjoining areas since this may cause the color tone to vary.

III. Only clean with a soft dry cloth and/or Windex.

IV. Do not attempt to disassemble the mirror monitor.

Safety

• Before drilling, be sure no cable or wire is on the other side.

• Feed as much cable as possible into vehicle & clamp securely.

This reduces the possibility of cable being hooked or snagged.

GRIDLINES

Chapter three: Adjustable Guideline

Generally, to help drivers esmate the distance from obstacles, there are three lines for

reference -red, yellow and green. Those three lines are displayed on the monitor when car is

reversing. The green line is 3m from the back of car and the yellow line is 2m. The distant red

line is 1m from the backside of car while the closed red line is 0.4m. Both reference lines on

the leand right should leave 0.2m space from the car.

Regular guide line is xed. But installaon sites of cameras are dierent as well as car size. The

xed guide line is not accurate enough for drivers. There will be a great dierence between

regular and xed guide lines and car's real guide lines, especially when camera is mounted on

the leor right side of car backside. It may cause accidents.
