• This camera is recommended for rear-view applications in
heavy-duty vehicles. In most installations, the trigger wire
of this camera would be connected to the reverse lights
of the vehicle for automatic viewing when the vehicle is
operating in reverse. The camera is also equipped with
night vision and audio capability.
• If the camera is to be used in a typical backup camera
application, the camera should be positioned so that
the driver can obtain a wide, unobstructed field of vision
behind the vehicle.
Preparing to install the Rear-View Camera
To prepare to install the camera:
1.
Open the camera mounting hardware kit, which has:
• four self-tapping screws
• four machine screws with matching lock washers, flat
washers, and nuts
• four plastic screw insulators
• an insulating pad
• an Allen

wrench
• waterproofing tape
2.
Use the Allen wrench to remove the sun shield and
camera from the mounting bracket so that the bracket
can be used as a template for marking drill-hole locations.
