Thank you for purchasing Parkmate’s RVM-043ATD Premium OEM Style 4.3” Replacement
Rear View Mirror Monitor with Auto Dimming. This state of the art Parkmate product is packed
with features including a monitor embedded into the rear view mirror that automatically displays
images from the optional rear-view camera upon selecting reverse gear. Auto Dimming is a
state of the art feature that includes a sensor that gauges the amount of ambient light being
reflected in the mirror and automatically adjusts the mirror to reduce the glare from the mirror
to your eyes.
This product uses the most advanced technology and components to provide you with a long
service life and integrates perfectly with the factory look of your vehicle to add a high level of
safety and security to your driving experience.
Please note: Although this product will allow you to view blind spots, it does not remove the
responsibility of driving the vehicle from the driver. The legal responsibility and safe driving
practice remains with the driver at all times.
You have purchased this Parkmate product with the understanding that its use is as an aid
only. We highly recommend that you have this product professionally installed to ensure that it
will provide the functions it is set out to perform.
Designed to replace the original rear view mirror of your vehicle, Parkmate’s Auto Dimming
RVM-043ATD Mirror Monitor features a high resolution 4.3” LCD panel embedded into the
mirror that captures the area not visible to standard rear-view mirrors when fitted with an
optional Parkmate rear view camera.

the back-light of the monitor.
b) When the monitor is in video mode, the POWER button is used to turn the monitor on
and off.
PRECAUTIONS FOR USE OF MIRROR MONITOR
1. The Mirror monitor is made of glass. Do not subject it to a mechanical shock by dropping it
from a high place, etc.
2. Do not apply excessive force to the monitor surface or to the adjoining areas as this may
cause the colour tone to vary.
3. Do not attempt to disassemble the mirror monitor. Doing so will void all warranties.
4. When cleaning the mirror monitor, spray glass cleaner directly onto a paper towel or similar
material. Do not spray glass cleaner directly onto the mirror monitor as this can result in
damage to circuitry. Clean residue with a soft dry cloth.
SAFETY
1. A rear view camera display is only a visual assistance device when reversing the vehicle.
Images displayed on the screen may be different from actual conditions. Always physically
inspect conditions and drive carefully.
2. Reverse your vehicle as slow as possible. High speeds can limit your reaction time to stop
your vehicle.
3. The displayable range of input devices including cameras can vary depending on vehicle
loads and road conditions.
4. Do not use a rear view camera system with the tailgate open.
5. Objects under or around the bumper cannot be displayed when the system is used with a
rear view camera.
