2 SYSTEM OPERATION
2.1 IMPORTANT: Precautions before Use
The monitor and camera system is provided as an aid when reversing your caravan and can also
be used to provide an additional view from the rear of the caravan whilst driving.
It should not be relied upon as the sole indication of your vehicle position or the position of other
vehicles or any obstacles.
When reversing or manoeuvring please ensure the area around your caravan is clear from
obstructions, and do not wholly rely on the camera view, use your mirrors and seek assistance as
required.
2.2 The Caravan Camera
The camera fitted to the rear of the caravan has no serviceable parts, however the following
precautions should be observed.
Ø
Check that the camera lens is clean as dirt can obscure the view.
Ø
Never use a power washer or water jet to clean the camera or transmitter.
2.3 Connecting the Car
Before you can use the monitor with the camera you need to connect your caravan to the car with
the 13 pin towing connector.
When the car engine is started the rear camera will receive power and switch on automatically.
2.4 Installing the Monitor in the tow car
The monitor has various features you should be familiar with for correct operation.
Firstly attach the mount to the rear of the monitor and connect the car power cable. The monitor
mounting plate clips to the rear of the monitor. The windscreen mounting then clips onto the
mounting plate. The power cable plugs into the mini-USB socket on the side of the monitor with
the other end plugging into the car power socket.
The monitor has an internal rechargeable battery which will last for around 1 hour when used
without the power cable. This battery is charged when the power cable is connected. Charging is
indicated by a red LED on the side of the monitor.
