How to install the Urive Albatross4 – Precautions
07
# The installation requires embedding and constant power supply; thus, you are advised to seek help from one of
our partners.
# It is recommended to use only Urive-certified power and connection cables. (The rear camera cable must UL-
certified, and check the “ULT” marking on the yellow band of the cable. You are provided with a 6 m-long rear
camera cable. Make sure that the length is appropriate for your car).
# Try to avoid high-temperature and small sections for installing the cable as the sheath can melt or be damaged
resulting in a short circuit.
# Wrong installation may lead to a fire, for which we are not liable.
# To install it, park your car on a level surface under good lighting with the engine turned off.
# Ensure that the power cable is not connected before the rear camera is connected.
# Before finishing the installation process, make sure that the front-/rear-view video is properly saved.
# Try to avoid any interruption of sight of driver.
# Make sure a micro SD card is inserted and then connect the power.
# For the clean and safe installation, try to hide the cables.
# Keep your windshield clean.
# The rear camera may be influenced by the tinting or hot wire.
