Limitations: 

 

Video only

 

The interface inserts ONLY video signals into the infotainment.   For inserting 
Audio signals either the possibly existing factory audio-AUX-input or a FM-
modulator can be used. If 2 audio sources shall be connected to the 
infotainment, an additional electronic is necessary to switch them.

 

 

Factory rear-view camera 

Automatically switching-back from inserted video to factory rear-view camera is 
only possible while the reverse gear is engaged. To delay the switch-back an 
additional electronic part is required. 

 

After market front camera

 

The front camera will automatically be switched for 10 seconds after 
disengaging the reverse gear. A manually front camera switching is possible by 
external keypad.
