2 Safety and installation instructions
Please observe the prescribed safety instructions and stipulations from the vehicle manufacturer and service workshops.
Caution!
WAECO International will not be held liable for claims for damage resulting from the following:
- Installation errors
- Damage to the device resulting from mechanical influences and overvoltage
- Alterations to the device made without the explicit permission of WAECO International
- Usage for purposes other than those described in the installation manual
Warning!
To prevent short circuits, always disconnect the negative terminal of the vehicle's electrical system before working on it.
If the vehicle has an additional battery, its negative terminal should also be disconnected.
Warning!
Insufficient supply line connections could result in short circuits which
- Cause cable fires
- Trigger the airbags
- Damage electronic control devices
- Cause electric functions to fail (indicators, brake light, horn, ignition, lights)
Please observe the following instructions:
-
When working on the following lines, only use insulated cable lugs, plugs and tab sleeves:
-
30 (direct supply from positive battery terminal)
- 15 (connected positive terminal, behind the battery)
- 31 (return line from the battery, earth)
- 58 (reversing light)
Do not use porcelain wire connectors.
- Use a crimping tool (Fig. 1 10, page 3) to connect the cables.
-
When connecting to supply line 31 (earth), screw the cable
-
To the vehicle's earth bolt with a cable lug and a gear disc or
- To the sheet metal body work with a cable lug and a self-tapping screw.
Ensure that there is a good earth connection.
When the negative terminal of the battery is disconnected, all data stored in the volatile memories will be lost.
-
The following data must be set again, depending on the vehicle equipment options:
-
Radio code
- Vehicle clock
- T i m e r
- On-board computer
- Seat position
You can find instructions for making these settings in the appropriate operating instructions.
Observe the following installation instructions:
- Secure the parts of the camera installed in the vehicle in such a way that they cannot become loose under any circumstances (sudden braking, accidents) and cause injuries to the occupants of the vehicle.
- Secure any parts of the system covered by the bodywork in such a manner that they cannot be come loose or damage other parts and cables and impair vehicle functions (steering, pedals, etc.).
- To prevent damage, when drilling ensure that there is sufficient room for the drill head to come out on the other side (Fig. 2, page 4).
- Deburr all drill holes and treat them with a rust-protection agent.
- Always follow the safety instructions of the vehicle manufacturer. Some work (e.g. on retention systems such as the AIRBAG etc.) may only be performed by qualified specialists.
Observe the following instructions when working with electrical parts:
- When testing the voltage in electrical cables, only use a diode test lamp (Fig. 1 8, page 3) or a voltmeter (Fig. 1 9, page 3). Test lamps with an illuminant (Fig. 1 12, page 3) take up voltages which are too high and which can damage the vehicle's electronic system.
- When making electrical connections, ensure that
- They are not kinked or twisted
- They do not rub on edges
- They are not laid in sharp edged ducts without protection (see Fig. 3, page 4)
Insulate all connections. - Secure the cables against mechanical wear with cable binders or insulating tape, for example to existing cables.
The camera is watertight. However, the sealings on the camera cannot withstand a high-pressure cleaner (Fig. 4, page 4). Therefore, you should observe the following instructions when handling the camera:
- Do not open the camera, as this impairs the sealing and the function of the camera (Fig. 5, page 4).
- Do not pull at the cables, as this impairs the sealing and the function of the camera (Fig. 6, page 4).
The camera is not suitable for submerged operation (Fig. 7, page 4).

7 General information on the electrical connections
7.1 Laying cables
Note!
As far as possible, use original openings or alternative openings for the connecting cable duct, e.g. the paneling edges, ventilation grilles or blank panels. If no openings are available, you must drill holes for the cables. Check beforehand that there is sufficient room for the drill head to come out on the other side.
Note!
Cables and connections which are not properly installed will cause malfunctions or damage to components. Correct installation of cables and connections is the basic prerequisite for lasting and trouble-free operation of the retrofitted components.
Caution!
The cables may not be exposed for long periods to solvents such as benzine, as the solvents can damage the cable.
Please observe the following instructions:
- Wherever possible lay cables inside the vehicle, as they are better protected inside than outside the vehicle.
If you do need to lay a cable outside the vehicle, ensure that it is well secured (use additional cable ties, insulating tape, etc.). - To prevent damage to the cables, when laying them ensure that there is sufficient distance to hot or moving vehicle components (exhaust pipes, drive shafts, light systems, fans, heater etc.). Use corrugated piping or other protective materials to protect against mechanical wear.
-
Wrap the insulating tape supplied around the plug connections of the connecting cables and every connection on a cable (including inside the vehicle) to protect from penetrating water (Fig. 10 B, page 5).
-
When laying electric connections, ensure that
-
They are not kinked or twisted
- They do not rub on edges
-
They are not laid in sharp edged ducts without protection (Fig. 3, page 4)
-
Attach the cables securely in the vehicles to prevent tripping hazards.
Use cable binders, insulating tape or glue the cables in place. - Protect every through-hole made in the bodywork against water penetration, e.g. by using a cable with a sealant and by spraying the cable and the the cable sleeve with sealant.
Note!
Do not start sealing the through-holes until all installation work has been finished for the camera, and the required cable lengths have been established.
8 Mounting the camera
8.1 Tools required
For installation and assembly you will require the following tools:
- Drill bit set (Fig. 1, page 3)
- Drill (Fig. 1 2, page 3)
- Screwdriver (Fig. 1 3, page 3)
- Set of ring or open-ended spanners (Fig. 1 4, page 3)
- Measuring ruler (Fig. 1 5, page 3)
- Hammer (Fig. 1 6, page 3)
- Centre punch (Fig. 17, page 3)
To make and test the electrical connection, the following tools are required:
- Diode test lamp (Fig. 1 8, page 3) or voltmeter (Fig. 1 9, page 3)
Insulating tape (Fig. 11, page 3) - Cable bushing sleeves, if necessary
To fasten the cables you may require additional cable binders.
8.2 Mounting the camera
Note!
If installing the camera alters the vehicle height or length specified in the vehicle documents, your vehicle must be inspected by the appropriate authorities.
Make sure that you are in possession of documents verifying that your vehicle has passed this inspection.
Warning!
Select a location for the camera and attach it so securely that it cannot under any circumstances fall off and injure bystanders (e.g. by being knocked off by branches brushing over the roof of the vehicle).
Observe the following installation instructions:
- To provide a suitable viewing angle, the camera must be attached at a height of at least 2m .
Ensure that you have a firm place from which to work when mounting the camera.
-
Ensure that the installation location of the camera is sufficiently firm (e.g. to prevent the camera from being knocked down by branches that may brush over the roof of the vehicle).
-
Mount the camera horizontally and in the middle of the rear of the vehicle (Fig. 11, page 6).
-
The most secure type of attachment is with screws fitted through the body. Please observe the following instructions:
-
There must be sufficient space for the mounting procedure behind the chosen installation location.
- Suitable measures must be taken to prevent water penetrating through any holes made (e.g. by using screws and sealant and/or spraying the outer attachment parts with a sealant).
-
The location on the body where you wish to attach the camera must be rigid enough to allow the camera to be tightly fastened.
-
Check beforehand that there is sufficient room for the drill head to come out on the other side (Fig. 2, page 4).
-
If you are not sure about the location you have chosen, consult the vehicle manufacturer or dealer.
Tip!
We recommend greasing the threads of the bolts to prevent corrosion.
When mounting the camera, proceed as follows:
Hold the camera on the chosen location and mark at least two different points for the drill holes (Fig. 12, page 6).
Using a hammer and centre punch, gently pre-punch the previously marked points to prevent the drill head from slipping off.
If you want to screw on the camera with self-tapping screws (Fig. 13, page 6)
Caution!
The holder may only be attached to steel panels with a minimum thickness of 1.5mm using self-tapping screws.
Drill 2mm holes at the points you have just marked.
Deburr all drill holes and apply rust-protection.
Screw the camera bracket on with the 4 × 10 ~mm self-tapping screws.
If you would like to attach the camera with threaded screws fitted through the construction (Fig. 14, page 6)
Caution!
Ensure that that nuts cannot be pulled through the body shell when they are tightened.
Use larger washers or metal plates if necessary.
Drill 4.5mm holes at the points you have just marked.
Deburr all drill holes and apply rust-protection.
Screw the camera bracket on with the M4 x 20 mm threaded screws. Depending on the thickness of the construction, you may require longer threaded screws.
Creating a through-hole for the camera connection cable (Fig. 15, page 6)
Note!
If possible, use available openings – such as ventilation grilles – to feed the connection cables through. If there are no existing openings, you must drill a hole with a 13mm diameter.
Check beforehand that there is sufficient room for the drill head to come out on the other side.
Drill a hole of 13 mm near the camera.
Deburr all drill holes that have been made in the sheet metal and apply rust-protection.
Place cable sleeves in all sharp edged ducts.
Attaching the camera and camera guard
Push the camera into the camera bracket (Fig. 8 2, page 5).
Caution!
Only use the screws supplied to mount the camera in the camera bracket. Longer screws will damage the camera.
Secure the camera loosely with the two screws M3 x 6 mm in the middle threaded drill holes (Fig. 16, page 6).
The camera is now centred.
Align the camera so that the lens is at an angle of approx. 50^ to the perpendicular axis of the vehicle (Fig. 17, page 7).
Caution!
Never mount the camera without the additional camera guard. To mount the camera guard, only use the supplied M3 x 8 mm screws. Longer screws will damage the camera.
Push the camera guard (Fig. 8 3, page 5) over the camera in such a way that the central drill holes slide over both screw heads and the slots are aligned with those of the camera bracket.
You can now see the two threaded drill holes for securing the camera guard and the camera bracket.
Secure the camera guard with the four M3 x 8 mm screws in the slots (Fig. 17, page 7).
Note!
The six screws are only tightened when you have aligned the camera (see the "Checking the function and setting the camera" chapter on page 35).
To do this you must first install and connect a monitor (see principle circuit diagram Fig. 20, page 7).
8.3 Connecting the camera
Note!
Lay the camera cable so that should you need to remove the camera, you can access the plug connection between the camera and the extension cable easily. This considerably eases dismantling work.
Guide the camera cable into the vehicle interior.
Insert the plug of the camera cable into the socket of the extension cable (Fig. 10 A, page 5).
Tip!
To minimise corrosion in the plug, apply a small amount of grease – such as pin grease – inside the plug.
Caution!
The plug connections of the extension cable do not offer any protection against water penetration. It is essential that you wrap the connection with the sealing tape supplied (Fig. 10 B, page 5).
Note!
Additional extension cables are available on request (see the "Accessories" chapter on page 27).
9 Checking the function and setting the camera
Check the function of the camera after you have connected it to a monitor.
Align the camera using the image on the monitor to help you:
The monitor image should show the rear or the bumper of the vehicle at the bottom edge of the screen. The middle of the bumper should be in the middle of the screen (Fig. 19, page 7).
Tighten the six fastening screws of the camera bracket.
Settings for contrast and brightness can be made on the monitor.
