Safety Around and Behind Other Vehicles
Using a 1080P Mirror Roadcam 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.
• The colors of objects on the 1080P Mirror Roadcam may differ from those
of the actual object.
• Do not use alcohol or thinner to clean the Roadcam. This will cause
discoloration. To clean the Roadcam, wipe with a clean cloth dampened
with mild cleaner diluted with water and then wipe with a dry cloth.

MAINTENANCE & WARRANTY
