• Never depend on the Backup Camera entirely when backing up. The image on the monitor display screen
may be slightly dierent from actual and real-time conditions. Objects viewed in the rear view monitor
dier from actual distances because a wide-angle lens is used. So use the camera as an aid and always
follow intended driving practices to properly judge distances from objects.
• The Backup Camera's assisted low lux lighting performance feature is also an aid to a driver. Always use
your own eyes to conrm the vehicle's surroundings, as the displayed image may be not well lit or not
entirely visible. Always proceed with caution and perform double-checks before proceeding.

below the bumper, underneath the vehicle, or objects out of the camera's view. The camera's view can
change according to your vehicle's orientation on the road or changing road conditions.

Quick Installation:
The 2.4 G wireless modules come in two parts, they are used as the "Transmitter” and the "Receiver". When installing, the “Transmitter”, should be connected to the camera (the camera is preferably mounted in the rear
of the vehicle, just above the license plate). The receiver is built in the display monitor. This receives the signal from the camera connected to the transmitter.
Connect the transmitter's red power wire, of the DC 12V input cable, to the positive 12V reverse tail light in the rear of your car. Then connect the black wire, of the DC 12V input cable, and ground properly.
The transmitter then connects to the camera, and will supply power to the camera directly.
