Special notes
The reversing camera works with shortwave radio signals. These can interfere with the operation of other electronic and medical devices. Switch off the device in areas where its use is prohibited. Do not use the device in medical facilities, on aircraft, at gas stations, or near automatic fire alarms or automatically controlled devices. Keep the device at least 20 cm away from pacemakers and other medical devices.
Depending on ambient conditions, the camera and monitor may not always correctly display individuals or objects.
Extreme high or low temperatures or rapid temperature changes may cause the camera to not function
properly or cause the monitor to not show objects correctly.
Bright light hitting the camera lens directly may result in objects being overexposed and not being displayed clearly.
After using a car wash, the camera's detection range may change due to mechanical effects. Be sure to check for this and readjust the camera if necessary.
Even if the fuse inside the 12 V plug is tripped, back-up camera system's camera and wireless transmitter will remain ready for use.
When removing dirt or ice and snow from the camera lens be extremely careful so as not to scratch it.

TROUBLESHOOTING
| Problem Possible cause Solution | ||
| The monitor stays dark. The blue LED doesn’t light up. | The 12 V monitor cable plug is not plugged into the vehicle’s cigarette lighter or a 12 V outlet. | Plug the 12 V monitor cable plug into the cigarette lighter or a 12 V vehicle outlet. |
| The fuse inside the 12 V monitor cable plug is burnt out and must be replaced. | Replace the defective fuse inside the 12 V monitor cable plug with a new fuse (also see “Replacing fuses”). | |
| The monitor displays no image. | The camera is not connected to the monitor. | Check the battery charge. If necessary, recharge the reversing camera. |
| The image on the monitor shows interference. | The wireless connection between monitor and camera is too weak, thus interfering with data transmission. | Position the transmitter closer to the monitor or adjust the position of the monitor. |
| The monitor image is not displayed clearly. | The camera lens may be dirty. | Carefully clean the camera lens. |
| Bright light is hitting the camera lens. | The image quality will improve once you move out of the area of the interfering light. | |
