INSTALLATION

These instructions do not apply to all vehicles. They are only meant as a general guide due to the number of different makes & models. For vehicle specific questions contact your vehicle's manufacturer.

Camera installation

There are several ways to mount the cameras on the back of your vehicle or trailer. But the most convenient is to mount it near the license plate of the vehicle or trailer.

Supplied are two mounting plates that can be fixed behind the license plate, and the mounting plates have been installed in the cameras.

The camera is tiltable, camera angle can be adjusted manually on vertical direction. Make sure that its field of view and detection are not obstructed.

There are two sets of cameras and transmitters, use the same way below to install them on the vehicle and trailer respectively.

1. Remove the rear license plate, and then loosen the license plate bolts/screws.

1. Position the supplied mounting plate (with camera together) behind the license plate bracket. Secure both license plate bracket and mounting plates with the license plate bracket bolts/screws.

1. Mount the license plate on the license plate bracket.

1. Choose a routing path for the camera's power cable through the vehicle's (or trailer's) body to the reverse light circuit. If in doubt, seek professional installation assistance.

2. Some vehicles (or trailer) may have a hole available to pass the wire through, such as where the license plate light is mounted, or you can drill a hole close to where the power cable is attached to the camera. Once you have chosen where the cable will enter the vehicle's (or trailer's) body, remove the camera. If you are able to use an existing opening, skip the next two steps.

3. Before you drill a hole you MUST CHECK and see WHAT IS BEHIND WHERE YOU ARE DRILLING. If there are any vehicle components, such as electrical parts or fuel system components behind where you are drilling, you must take whatever precaution is necessary not to damage them. Remove the license plate and camera before drilling.

4. After you have drilled the hole, insert the supplied grommet, then pass the camera cables through the grommet into the vehicle (or trailer's). You must use the grommet to prevent the metal edge of the hole from cutting the camera cable.

5. Mount the transmitter box inside the trunk. Connect the camera's power cable and the transmitter box power cable to the transmitter box. NOTICE: Choose position to mount the transmitter boxes as close as possible to the receiver for better signal transmission; The length of the power cables are long enough for routing from the rear end to the front of the vehicle or trailer. The transmitter doesn't comply with weatherproof.

6. Next you'll need to find the vehicle's (or trailer's) reverse lights. Turn the vehicle's ignition key to the accessory position, engage the parking brake and put the car in reverse. Look at the vehicle's tail lights to see where the reverse lights are located, they are the white lights. To locate the reverse light's 12V+ wire it will be necessary to gain access to the rear of the vehicle's (or trailer's) tail light. For help locating the vehicle's (or trailer's) reverse light circuit contact your vehicle's (or trailer's) manufacturer for vehicle specific wiring diagrams.

7. Once you have located the reverse light circuit you will have to route the transmitter box power cable to that location. You must securely fasten the power cable to prevent it from being caught on any vehicle component such as the trunk hinge. Never route the cable on the outside of the vehicle (or trailer)!

8. The reverse light sockets on most vehicles have two wires connected to them. Usually the negative wire is black and the positive wire is a colored wire. If you are uncertain about the wiring, you can use a 12 volt multi-meter available at most auto parts stores to determine which is the positive wire. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the safe use of the multimeter.

9. After determining which wire is the positive and which is the negative, turn off the ignition key, then remove the battery's negative cable.

10. Splice the red wire using the supplied in-line wire connectors to the reverse light's positive (+) wire. Use a set of slip joint pliers to squeeze the TAP and insure good connection.

1. Next splice the black wire of the transmitter box power cable to the reverse light's negative (-) wire or ground.
2. Replace the reverse light bulb, and then re-install the light socket. Secure all the wires with cable ties or electrical tape.
3. Re-attach the negative battery cable to the battery.

Monitor Installation

When choosing a location to mount the monitor, make sure the monitor is in an area that will not obstruct your vision while driving.

1. Before mounting the monitor, clean the mounting surface well.
2. Position the suction mount to the smooth surface which suits your requirement.
3. Press the suction cap against the smooth surface and press the lock down to attach and fix the mount to the surface.

1. Snap in the monitor to the suction mount.
2. Adjust the mounting arms to suit your view angle to the monitor and tighten the screws on the mount to fix the position.

1. Route the power cable to the vehicle's cigarette lighter socket/12V power outlet. The cable must not interfere with the safe operation of the vehicle.
2. Insert the small 12 Volt DC plug of the power cable into the right side of the monitor.
3. Plug the 12 Volt cigarette lighter plug into the vehicle's cigarette lighter socket.

To maximize the effectiveness of the suction mount, it is recommended that the application be performed under the following conditions:

• Surface temperature should be between 21 and 38 degrees Celsius.
• Application below 10 degrees should be avoided.
• Application should not occur in direct sunlight.

Mounting should be protected from exposure to direct sunlight for a period of 24 hours.

NOTE: UNDER EXTREME BRIGHT LIGHT CONDITIONS, THE SCREEN IMAGE MAY TAKE A FEW SECONDS TO STABLIZE. PLEASE WAIT UNTIL THE IMAGE HAS STABLIZED BEFORE BACKING UP.

System testing

1. Reattach the vehicle's negative battery cable.
2. Turn the ignition key to the accessory position, do not start the vehicle.
3. Engage the parking brake, and then put the shifter in the reverse position.
4. Look at the monitor, if the image does not match your rear view mirror press the Image Orientation button on the monitor to correct the image.
5. After testing the unit and you are satisfied with the route you have chosen for the cabling, you must permanently install it.
6. Route all wires behind interior panels or under carpeting so they are hidden. Use supplied cable ties to neatly gather any excess wire.
