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
exists 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
forward of the back of the driver’s seat or in any location that
is visible, directly or indirectly, to the driver while operating the
vehicle.
Please read all of the installation instructions
carefully before installing the product. Improper
installation will void manufacturer’s warranty.

USA E
•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 Sys-
tem 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.
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. If the system seems to not be operating properly see
troubleshooting

Installation uide
Cable
1. Be sure to position the cable properly. The camera cable uses
aircraft grade connectors which means the camera cable can
be exposed 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.
2. Fasten all cables and secure all excess cable.
Note: Push the harness into the monitor until you hear a
click to ensure connection

The Power Harness.
•To power the system connect the
power (RED) 12V+ wire to ignition
power and the ground (BLACK)
wire to chassis ground.
•These are the only wires needed to
power the entire system and all
the cameras. Each camera can be
seen at any time by simply
pressing the power button and
using the V1/2 button to toggle.
•The three positive trigger wires
each represent one channel and
will turn on their channel when
the trigger wire is energized with
12V.
•"Camera 3" is the designated
backup channel. To have the the
backup camera come on when you
go into reverse, con-nect the BLUE
wire to reverse power (or any
power source that comes on only
in reverse).
•2 of the other channels can also be
triggered (side cameras can be
triggered by the turn signals)
•To automatically have camera and
monitor turn ON when vehicle activates,
simply twist BLUE positive trigger 12V+
to Red Power line 12V+ and wire to ig-
nition power.
Note: When the blue wire is
active it will have precedence
over the other triggers.
Therefore, if you wish to use
multiple triggers, do not
attach the blue trigger to
constant power.

Wiring Camera & Monitor
•rid-lines: The grid-lines are
also carried through the blue
wire. To use the grid-lines for
reversing, connect the blue
wire to a reverse power.
•There is a built-in voltage
regulator for our systems which
can handle 9-32 volts. Real
consumption is 10 to 30 Volts.
Note: The camera and
monitor can always be
activated by manually
pushing the power button on
monitor. This is in addition to
utilizing the positive triggers.
Note: If connecting power
directly to battery, the camera
is always ON and therefore can
drain battery. Therefore it is
recommended to connect
power to an ignition switched
accessory power source.
