Before Beginning Installation

Before drilling please check that no cable or wiring is on the other side of the wall. Please clamp all wires securely to reduce the possibility of them being damaged while vehicle is in use. Keep all cables away from hot or moving parts and electrical noisy components.

We recommend doing a benchmark test before installation to insure that all components are working properly.

Step 1: Choose the monitor and camera locations.

Step 2: Install all cables in vehicle, when necessary a 0.8 (20mm)

hole should be drilled for passing camera cable through vehicles walls. Install split grommets where applicable

Step 3: Once all cables and wiring have been properly placed routed, perform a system function test by temporarily connecting he system. If the system seems to not be operating properly see troubleshooting
