Congratulations on purchasing a RearView Backup
Camera System!

operate the unit.
The Backup Camera System is intended to be installed as a

motor vehicle equipped with aTV 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.

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/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.

three lines for reference- red, yellow, and green.Those three lines are dis-
played on the monitor when car is reversing. The green line is 9.9 feet
from the back of the car and the yellow line is 6.6 feet away. The distant
red line is 3.3 from the backside of car while the closed red line is 1.3 feet
from the car. Both reference lines on the left and right should leave 0.65
feet from the car.
