Congratulations on purchasing a Safety

Camera System!

With this manual you will be able to properly install and

operate the unit.

This system is intended to be installed as a
supplement aid to your standard rear view mirror that already exists

Rear View Safety

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/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.
