SAFETY INFORMATION

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 (page
33).

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).Dier-
ent cars have dierent 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 wrong installation of the mirror. Figure 1.1
Clip-On Monitor

vehicle with the pressurized clips on the back of the monitor.
2. Attach monitor to existing mirror, and adjust mounting angle to
allow optimum driver viewing comfort.
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 which runs inside the vehicle. Figure 1.2

cabletotheinputonthewiringharnessusingtheRCAadapter.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. Be sure
to power the camera via the RED power port on the RCA adapter.
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. Clean with a soft dry cloth and/or Windex only.
IV. Do not attempt to disassemble the mirror monitor.

Generally, to help drivers estimate the distance from obstacles, there are
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 3M from the
back of the car and the yellow line is 6.5 ft. The distant red line is 1M from
the backside of car while the close red line is 0.4M. Both reference lines on
the left and right should leave 0.2M space from the car.
The accuracy of the grid-lines can vary based on how you angle your cam-
era.Therefore to compensate for inaccuracies, you can adjust the grid-lines
to your camera angle.
