PerfectView Accessory Mounting the camera
29
➤ Mount the camera horizontally and in the middle of the rear of the vehicle
(see fig. 7E, page 8).
➤ The most secure type of attachment is with screws fitted through the body.
Please observe the following instructions:
– There must be sufficient space for the mounting procedure behind the chosen
installation location.
– Suitable measures must be taken to prevent water penetrating through the holes
(e. g. by using screws and sealant and/or spraying the outer attachment parts
with a sealant).
– The location on the body where you wish to attach the camera must be rigid
enough to allow the camera to be securely attached.
z Check beforehand that there is sufficient room for the drill head when it emerges.
z If you are not sure about the location you have chosen, consult the vehicle manufac-
turer or dealer.
z Lay the camera cable so that you can easily access the plug connection between
the camera and the wireless transmitter should you need to remove the camera.
This greatly facilitates the disassembly.
Warning!
You must use the supplied insulation pad (fig. 6B.2/fig. 6C.2, page 7) and the
insulation sleeves (fig. 6B.1/fig. 6C.1, page 7). This prevents residual current
caused by a poor earth connection in the vehicle. Residual current can cause
lines of interference in the picture or humming in the loudspeakers or even
damage components.
Tip
We recommend greasing the threads of all screws to prevent corrosion.
When mounting the camera, proceed as follows:
➤ Hold the camera on the chosen location and mark at least two different points for drill
holes (see fig. 6A.1, page 7).
If you wish to screw on the camera with self-tapping screws (see fig. 6B, page 7):
The holder may only be attached with self-tapping screws to steel panels with
a minimum thickness of 1.5 mm.
➤ Using a hammer (fig. 3.6, page 4) and centre punch (fig. 3.7, page 4), slightly pre-
punch the previously marked points to prevent the drill head from slipping off.
➤ Drill Ø 4 mm holes at the points you just marked.
➤ Debur all drill holes and apply rust-protection.
➤ Stick the double-sided insulation plate (fig. 6B.2, page 7) to the assembly side of the
holder. The insulation plate serves as a seal and protects the paint.
➤ Screw on the camera holder with the 5 x 20 mm (fig. 6C.3, page 7) self-tapping
screws. Use the insulating sleeves (fig. 6B.1, page 7).
