Installation and Operation
Fig. 1
• CAMERA INSTALLATION
The camera can be mounted on top or bottom of the license plate. Use the
supplied wedge shims to adjust the angle of the camera. Due to the number
of different vehicle’s make and model, it is the user’s responsibility to ensure
that the camera is mounted in a way that does not obstruct it’s field of view.
1. Choose a position where you want to mount the camera, on top or on bottom of
the license plate. Using the screws/bolts to hold the camera on the plate ans use
the wdge shims to adjust the andle if needed. Do not completely tighten the
camera to the plate at this stage, as you will need to decide a route to wire the
camera’s power cable to the reverse light circuit (Fig. 1).
2. There is no drilling needed if there is an existing opening on your vehicle such
as an opening on the bumper or near the license plate. That allows the camera’s
power cable to pass through the vehicle body into the reverse light circuit.
3. If you have to drill a hole to allow the power cable to pass through, you MUST
choose a location close to the cable. If there is any component behind the location
you are going to drill, you MUST take precaution to avoid damages. If you are
uncertain about the drilling, always ask a trained professional for assistance.
