QuickInstallation:

Thebackupcamerasystemiscompatiblewithawiderangeofvehiclesandvideodisplaymonitors.

(especiallysuitablefortheincluded rearviewmirrorandmonitorassembly.)

Thesystemincludes(2)DC12Vpowercables.

Thiskitincludesnecessarywiringandcableconnectoraccessoriessufficientfor typicalconnections.However,

additional accessory cables and installation materials may be necessary for a completely secure and

operationalbackupcameraperformance.

CameraConnection:

Connect the camera using one of the DC 12V power cables.Use the red wire to connect to the positive 12V

reversetaillightintherearofyourcar.Youmayneedtotemporarilyremoveaninteriorpanelorothercover.

Then,connect the blackwire of theDC 12Vpower cableand groundproperly.(Red wire is positive, black wireis

negative).

ThisDC12Vpowercableconnectstothecameraandwillsupplypowertothecameradirectly.Finally,

securetheyellowRCAvideoconnectionandruntheyellowvideocablefromthecameratotherearviewmirror

assembly. *Remember, connecting to the white video input of the mirror assembly will provide a picture only

whenthevehicleisplacedinreversegear.

RearviewMirrorMonitorAssemblyConnection:

ConnecttherearviewmirrormonitorassemblyusingtheotherDC12Vpowercable.Usethe redwiretoconnect

to your vehicle's fuse panel (preferably to the 12V ignition switch). You may need to temporarily  remove an

interior panel or other cover.Then, connect the black wire of the DC 12V power cable and ground properly.

ThisDC12Vpowercableconnectstotherearviewmirrormonitorandwillsupplypowertothecameradirectly.

Caution:Thisunitisdesignedtooperateon12VDCNEGATIVEGROUNDelectricalsystems.Connectingtoothertypesofelectrical

systemswillcausedamagetoyourvehicle.Pleasecontactthemanufacturerifyouareunawareofthesystemtypeinyourvehicle.

The white video input connector from the rearview mirror assembly serves as the Reverse Signal Sense and takes
