WARNING

This symbol means important instructions. Failure to heed them can result in serious injury or death.

WHEN USING A CAMERA SYSTEM, THE DRIVER MUST VISUALLY CHECK ACTUAL CONDITIONS AROUND THE VEHICLE. MAKE SURE THERE ARE NO PERSONS OR ANIMALS IN THE AREA IN WHICH YOU ARE MANOEUVRING OTHERWISE YOU COULD INJURE THEM.

A camera assists the driver by sending images to the screen showing conditions in view of the camera. The camera uses a wide-angle lens. Therefore, there is a difference in distance perspective between what is normally seen and what appears on the screen. Also, the images shown by the rearview camera are reversed, so as to appear the same as what is seen through the rearview mirror.

The camera may not perform to full capability due to variables such as:

• weather conditions such as hard rain, snow, fog or mud
  • extremely high or low temperatures near camera
  • slope of vehicle and/or roadway
• direct exposure to very bright light such as headlamp or bright sunlight
• moving from very dark to very bright light and vice versa such as in parking garages or tunnels
  • extremely low light areas
• walls or objects that are located diagonally in relation to the camera
  • changes to height of vehicle due to loading capacity or hydraulic suspensions
  • obstacles located at the corner of the vehicle

DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OR ALTER.

Doing so may result in an accident, fire or electric shock.

KEEP SMALL OBJECTS SUCH AS BOLTS OR SCREWS OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.

Swallowing them may result in serious injury. If swallowed, consult a Doctor immediately.

MINIMISE DISPLAY VIEWING WHILE DRIVING.

Viewing the display may distract the driver from looking ahead of the vehicle and cause an accident.

CHECK THAT THE CAMERA MOUNTINGS IS ATTACHED SECURELY, AND THAT THE SCREWS ARE TIGHT BEFORE DRIVING.

Failure to do so may result in an accident.

WHEN INSTALLING OR CHECKING A CAMERA, DO SO AFTER PARKING THE CAR IN A LEVEL, SAFE PLACE, TURNING OFF THE ENGINE, AND APPLYING THE HAND BRAKE.

Failure to do so may result in an accident.

CAUTION

This symbol means important instructions. Failure to heed them can result in injury or material property damage.

HALT USE IMMEDIATELY IF A PROBLEM APPEARS.

Failure to do so may cause personal injury or damage to the product. Return it to your authorized Alpine dealer or the nearest Alpine Service Center for repairing.
