If you have installed a rearview camera system, and have the

camera video signal connected to 
Video 1, with the grey Source 1 trigger wire fed from the back up light circuit, when you
put the vehicle in reverse, the VIDBMW1V4 will automatically switch the screen display
to the rearview camera.

Adjusting picture quality:

VIDBMW1V4 module is equipped with brightness, color and

contrast adjustments.

Step

7

Reinstall radio and test operation

A.

If you have installed a rearview camera, start the vehicle, turn on the radio and
navigation system and put the vehicle in reverse. The navigation display should change
to show the view from the camera. Shifting the vehicle out of park should return you to
the navigation display. If necessary, adjust the brightness, color and contrast with the
controls on the VIDBMW1V4.

B.

If you have installed a video system, with the vehicle in park gear, and the 
parking brake on, activate the video source. The navigation display will change to show
the video source.

C.

With the video source active and playing, test the video interlock by taking off the
parking brake. The navigation display should return.
