The system is ready for towing.
• The “Status light is flashing red and green.
The monitor isn’t receiving a signal from the towed vehi-

now be solid green.

The monitor “Power” switch has been turned off, or the
monitor has powered down.

How to pair the monitor and transmitter
The motorhome monitor and the towed vehicle transmit-
ter have been paired at the factory. If they’ve lost connectiv-
ity pair them as follows:
1. Power on the motorhome monitor.
2. Depress and hold the “Power” button on the motorhome
monitor for about five seconds. The “Status” light will flicker
yellow.
3. Release the “Power” button. The “Status” light on both
the towed vehicle transmitter and the motorhome monitor
will start flashing yellow. The units are now in pairing mode.
4. Depress and release the brake pedal in the towed vehi-
cle. The lights will stop flashing. The transmitter and monitor
are paired.
Monitor alerts
If the “Silence” button is pressed again after the alarm
at 60 seconds, it will reset the timer to only alarm after 90
seconds. This can be extended once more to 120 seconds.
Caution
If the monitor alerts you to extended braking when you
are not braking the motorhome, the brakes in the towed
vehicle are being applied inappropriately. Immediately
pull over and investigate to prevent brake damage.
• The “Status” light is flashing bright red; the “Break
away” light is solid red; accompanied with an audible
alarm.
The monitor is reporting a break away signal from the
towed vehicle. Pull over as soon as it is safe to do so and
investigate.
• The “Brake” light is yellow.
The “Brake” light will illuminate yellow whenever the
towed car’s brakes are on.
