6. Operating instructions

1. Camera with IR LEDs and connection cable

2. Monitor connection cable for 12 V vehicle socket

11. Transmitter with connection cable

These instructions are only valid as an example due to the various vehicle types and cannot be directly used for every vehicle. Check whether there are cables, wires or other components located at the position selected, which could be damaged by the drilling.

6.2.1 Checking the installation location for suitability

6.2.2 Removing the rear number plate

6.2.3 Pass through for the camber cable

Before you start with the installation, check whether the location chosen is suitable for installation of the rear view camera. Therefore hold both camera holders (item 9 in the overview), as precisely as possible over the rear license plate. The number plate and the number plate lighting must not be covered by the camera. The camera and the holder must not block the boot during closing. The camera can be mounted over or under the number plate. The camera must be mounted so that the cable connection is located above. First remove the rear number plate and, if present, also the number plate holder of your vehicle. If there is no opening behind the number plate that can be used for passing through the camera cable, you must drill a 10 mm diameter hole to lay the cable in the interior. In this case rst remove the interior lining of the boot. When the hole for the cable to pass through has been drilled, protect the bare areas of the sheet metal with rust protection paint or other suitable paint.12 Figure 2: Mounting the camera Figure 3: Camera holders spacing Figure 4: Inserting the cable Figure 5: Pressing in the small contact plates Figure 6: Closing the safety clamp

6.2.4 Mounting the camera

6.2.5 Connecting the camera

Connect the camera to the camera holders, item 9 in the overview, refer to Figure 2. For this use the bolts, item 5 in the overview and the nuts, item 6 in the overview. Do not tighten the bolts yet. Place the number plate or the number plate holder on the camera holders. Align the camera holders so that the fastening holes of the number plate or the number plate holder can be used. During this both number plate holders must be no further apart than 4 cm, Figure 3. Now tighten the bolts. The gasket, item 8 in the overview, has a collar on one side. This collar must later lie on the outside of the vehicle metal. Now insert the camera cable through the gasket from the collar side. Now insert the camera cable with the gasket through the hole behind the number plate. Set the number plate or the number plate carrier on the camera holders and mount this combination back on your vehicle. Select a suitable installation location for the transmitter, item 11 in the overview. Here it is possibly necessary to remove parts of the lining in the boot or in the passenger compartment of the vehicle. The installation location must not be too far removed from the camera and the rear light, pay attention to the cable lengths. In addition the transmitter must be placed as close as possible to the receiver (monitor), without metallic components, body metal, ribs and reinforcements being able to negatively inuence the radio transmission. Fasten the transmitter, e.g. with cable ties. Lay the cable so that it cannot be bent, pinched or stretched. Disconnect the battery. Look for the positive and negative cable for the backup light. Connect the red positive cable of the transmitter with the aid of the clamp connector. Item 7 in the overview, with the positive cable of the backup light. Connect the black negative cable of the transmitter to the negative cable of the backup light. Proceed as shown in Figures 4 to 6.

Caution: For the next step, working on the electrical system of the vehicle, it is necessary to unclamp the battery. This could cause, for example, the radio code, data of the on-board computer or other settings to be lost. To do this, read the user‘s manual of your vehicle or ask the vehicle manufacturer. If you are unsure during the electrical installation, ask a specialist workshop for advice. There is a risk of personal injury and property damage.

7. Maintenance and Care, Storage

Turn the knurled screw at the tip of the 12 V connector of the monitor cable anti-clockwise until it is released from the connector and it can be removed. The fuse is exposed and can be remove from the connector. Replace the fuse with another of the same strength and screw the knurled screw back into the connector. Fuse: 6.0 x 30 mm, F, 1 A, 250 V Before cleaning unplug the connection cable from the monitor. Clean the housing of the monitor with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use any abrasive or solvent-based cleaning agents. Never allow liquids to ingress into the housing. When not in use store the rear view camera system in a dry location. Do not expose the camera system to any strong temperature uctuations. The resulting condensation can damage the system. The ignition of the vehicle and the monitor are turned on, reverse gear is engaged, but the display remains dark. The blue indicator light is not lit up The plug of the monitor cable is not plugged into the 12 V vehicle socket. Insert the plug of the monitor cable into the 12 V vehicle socket The fuse in the plug of the monitor cable triggered and must be replaced Replace the fuse in the plug of the monitor cable The fuse for the 12 V vehicle socket triggered and must be replaced. Replace the fuse in the fuse box of the vehicle The ignition of the vehicle and the monitor are turned on, reverse gear is engaged, the blue indicator light is lit up but the display does not show an image. No radio connection could be made bet- ween the camera and the monitor. The cable of the camera and the transmitter are not correctly connected or they came apart. Check the correct connection of the cable to the camera, transmitter and backup light. The image on the monitor malfunctions. The signal between the camera and the monitor has interference from other radio sources (e.g. cellphone, transmitter for garage door opener). Switch o the radio transmission sources or get away from these radio sources. The radio connection between the came- ra and monitor is not strong enough to transmit the signals without interference. Change the position of the transmitter so that the distance to the monitor is smaller and no metallic obstacles negatively inuence the transmission. The monitor does not display a clear image. The camera lens is dirty. Carefully clean the lens. Strong light is falling directly on the lens of the camera. As soon as the strong incidence of light is gone, the image quality is again ok.
