Frequently Asked Questions - RV4 AEG

How to charge the camera battery?
The battery recharges automatically via the solar panels or via the USB port. For a full charge, connect the USB cable to the camera and to a USB power source (5 V, 500 mA). Charging takes about 6 to 7 hours. The charge level is displayed on the monitor. In low sunlight conditions, USB charging is required.
How to pair the camera with the monitor?
Go to the Setup menu on the monitor, select PAIR1 or PAIR2 depending on the camera. Press and hold the pairing button (located on the camera) using the pairing needle until the image appears on the screen. The process is confirmed visually.
What to do if the monitor stays off?
First check that the 12 V plug of the monitor cable is properly connected to the cigarette lighter or the vehicle's 12 V socket. If the blue LED does not light up, the fuse in the plug may have blown. Replace it with a fuse of the same type (T1AL 250 V). See the Fuse Replacement section in the manual.
How to replace the fuse?
Unscrew the lock ring and the fuse cover on the cigarette lighter plug. Remove the defective fuse and insert a new glass fuse of type T1AL 250 V. Screw the assembly back together. Never use a fuse with a higher rating.
Can I use the camera in the rain?
The camera is rain-protected but not waterproof. Do not immerse it in water or any other liquid. Avoid excessive humidity. After a car wash, check the camera angle as water jets may have moved it.
How to activate the guide lines?
Press the Stand-by button on the monitor for about 5 seconds to activate the guide lines. Press again for 5 seconds to deactivate them. These lines help estimate distances during reversing maneuvers.
How to adjust the camera angle?
Loosen the screws under the camera. Tilt the camera to the desired angle, then tighten the screws. The camera can pivot in one direction. If you mount the camera above or below the license plate, the mounting bracket can be rotated 180°.
What to do if the image is blurry?
Gently clean the camera lens with a soft cloth to remove dirt, ice, or snow. Avoid scratching the lens. If strong light hits the lens directly, image quality may be affected; move away from the light source.
How to clean the camera and monitor?
Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the surfaces. Do not spray liquid directly on the device. For the camera, gently wipe the lens cover. Store the device in a clean, dry place.
What is the transmission range?
The maximum range is approximately 30 meters in open field. Metal obstacles or interference can reduce this range. For best reception, place the monitor as close as possible to the camera.

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.
