Introduction
Please read all of the installation instructions
carefully before installing the product. Improper
installation will void manufacturer’s warranty.
Congratulations on purchasing a Rear View Backup Camera
System! With this manual you will be able to properly install and
operate the unit.
The Backup Camera System is intended to be installed as a
supplement aid to your standard rear view mirror that already ex-
ists in your vehicle. The Backup Camera System should not be
used as a substitute for the standard rear view mirror or for any
other mirror that exists in your vehicle.
In some jurisdictions, it is unlawful for a person to drive a
motor vehicle equipped with a TV viewer or screen located
forward of the back of the driver’s seat or in any location that is
visible, directly or indirectly, to the driver while operating the
vehicle.

Safety Information
Please read the entire manual and follow the instructions and
warnings carefully. Failure to do so can cause serious damage
and/or injury, including loss of life. Be sure to obey all applicable local traffic and motor vehicle regulations as it pertains to
this product. Improper installation will void manufacturer’s
warranty.
USAGE
• The Rear View Camera System
is designed to help the driver
safely detect people and/or
objects helping to avoid
damage or injury. However,
you the driver, must use it
properly. Use of this system is
not a substitute for safe,
proper or legal driving.
• Never back up while looking
at the monitor alone. You
should always check behind
and around the vehicle when
backing up, in the same way
as you would if the vehicle
did not have the Rear View
4
Camera System. If you back
up while looking only at the
monitor, you may cause
damage or injury. Always
back up slowly.
• The Rear View Camera Sys-
tem is not intended for use
during exstensive back-up
maneuvers or backing into
cross traffic or pedestrian
walkways.
• Please, always remember,
the area displayed by the
Rear View Camera System is
limited. It does not display
the entire panorama that is
behind you.

REAR VIEW SAFETY
Before You Begin 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 routed,
perform a system function test by temporarily connecting the
system. If the system seems to not be operating properly see
troubleshooting (page 20).

Installation Guide
Cable
1. Be sure to position the cable properly. The aviation camera
cable uses aircraft grade connectors which means the camera
cable can be exposed to all weather elements. Do not run the
cable over sharp edges, do not kink the cable and keep away
from HOT and rotating parts.
2. Fasten all cables and secure all excess cable.
Replacement Monitor
1. The Mirror Monitor replaces the existing rear view mirror in
vehicle.
2. Replace existing mirror, and adjust mounting angle to allow
optimum driver viewing comfort. (see figure 1.1 on page 11).
Clip-On Monitor
1. The Mirror Monitor attaches to the existing rear view mirror in
vehicle with the pressurized clips on the back of the monitor.
2. Attach monitor to existing miror, and adjust mounting angle to
allow optimum driver viewing comfort. (see figure 1.1 on page
12).
