A) MAGNETIC MOUNT OPTION
The camera has a strong magnet on its back and can be mounted on any metal surface of a vehicle,
trailer, or anything you tow. The camera is already charged, but it is a good practice to charge the
camera when not in use. The camera will fully charge in 5 hours.
The desired mounting place has to be a clean and at surface to provide maximum magnetic
holding force. Aluminium / plastics / carbon ber will not hold the magnetic camera. Turn the
camera on or o using the power button on the top of the camera. The camera image will always
appear on the monitor screen as long as both are receiving power.* It is recommended to remove
the camera when not in use and charge fully between uses. The camera provides 4-5 hours of
viewing time between charging. When the battery on the camera is at 20%, an icon will appear on
the monitor to notify you.
The camera is not intended to be mounted permanently. It is recommended to remove the camera
when not in use and fully charge between uses. There are strap holders on each side of the camera.
Use tie-wraps or rope to secure if needed.

dierent from actual conditions. Objects viewed in the rear view monitor dier from actual
distance because a wide-angle lens is used. Objects in the rear view monitor will appear visually
opposite than when viewed in the rear view and outside mirrors. Use the inside mirror or glance
over your shoulder to properly judge distances to other objects.
• The Backup Camera “night vision” feature is an aid to a driver but is limited. Always use your
own eyes to conrm the vehicle’s surroundings, as the displayed image may be faint or dark,
distorted, or not entirely visible. Always check behind and all around the vehicle visually with
mirrors before proceeding.
• The area displayed by the Backup Camera is limited. The Backup Camera does not display
objects that are close to or below the bumper, underneath the vehicle, or objects out of
the Camera’s eld of view. The area displayed on the screen may vary according to vehicle
orientation or road conditions.
• Be sure to check the Camera’s position and mounting angle before each use.

Otherwise, water may enter the Camera unit causing water condensation on the lens, a
malfunction, re or an electric shock.
• Do not strike the Camera. It is a precision instrument. Otherwise, it may malfunction or cause
damage resulting in a re or an electric shock.
• This product will only provide images of items that are within the eld of view of the Camera.
Thus, it is imperative that the Camera should be kept clean and unobstructed, and should be
mounted so that its eld of view includes the entire area behind your vehicle.
• Adhere to all applicable trac laws and motor vehicle regulations applicable to the device.
• Consult local laws and regulations for any restrictions on installation or use.
• Never allow children to play with the device. Small parts may be a choking hazard.

This may cause incorrect operation. Camera Lens is waterproof.
• Do not submerge Camera in water, which can cause internal damage to the Camera.
• If the temperature changes rapidly, such as when hot water is poured on the vehicle in cold
weather, the system may not operate normally. The Digital Camera Lens can withstand the
eects of rain, snow, and inclement weather.
• When strong light directly enters a camera, objects may not be displayed clearly.
• The screen may icker under uorescent light.
• The colors of objects on the rear view monitor may dier somewhat from those of the actual
object.
• If dirt, rain or snow attaches to the Camera, the monitor may not clearly display objects. If water
droplets, snow or mud adhere to the Camera lens, rinse with water and wipe with a dry cloth.
• Do not use alcohol, benzene or thinner to clean the Camera. This will cause discoloration. To
clean the Camera, wipe with a clean cloth dampened with mild cleaner diluted with water and
then wipe with a dry cloth.
• Will work up to 33 feet.
• ALWAYS engage Parking/Emergency/Hand Brakes of the vehicle when testing the system.
SAFETY AROUND AND BEHIND OTHER VEHICLES
Using a Backup Camera is not enough to completely overcome a vehicle’s blind spot. Many
preventable injuries and deaths occur in driveways or parking lots when drivers do not see children,
pets, or others near their vehicles. Here are a few safety tips that will help you to avoid a back-over
accident:
• Walk completely around your vehicle before getting in. Check for kids, toys, and pets before
entering the vehicle and starting the engine.
• Know where children are. Have children stand in a place where they are in full view.
• Be aware of young children. Young children are small and hard to see.
• Parents, caregivers and all adults need to be vigilant in supervising children, especially when
children are in the yard, driveway or parking lot playing near parked cars.
• Roll down your window so you will be able to hear what is happening outside your vehicle.
