Observe the following installation instructions:
 To provide a suitable viewing angle, the camera must be attached at a height of at least
2 m.
Ensure that you have a firm place from which to work when mounting the camera.
 Ensure that the installation location of the camera is sufficiently firm (e.g. to prevent the
camera from being knocked down by branches that may brush over the roof of the ve-
hicle).
 Mount the camera bracket horizontally and in the middle of the rear of the vehicle
(fig.
0 , page 6).
 The most secure type of attachment is with screws fitted through the body. Please ob-
serve the following instructions:
– There must be sufficient space for the mounting procedure behind the chosen in-
stallation location.
– Suitable measures must be taken to prevent water penetrating through any holes
made (e.g. by using screws and sealant and/or spraying the outer attachment parts
with a sealant).
– The location on the body where you wish to attach the camera must be rigid enough
to allow the camera to be tightly fastened.

Check beforehand that there is sufficient room for the drill head to come out on the oth-
er side (fig.
2 , page 4).
 If you are not sure about the location you have chosen, consult the vehicle manufac-
turer or dealer.

When mounting the camera, proceed as follows:
➤
Hold the camera on the chosen location and mark at least two different points for the
drill holes (fig.
a , page 6).
➤
Using a hammer and centre punch, gently pre-punch the previously marked points to
prevent the drill head from slipping off.
If you want to screw on the camera with self-tapping screws
(fig.

➤
Drill Ø 4 mm holes at the points you have just marked.
➤
Deburr all drill holes and apply rust-protection.
➤ Screw the camera bracket on with the 5 x 20 mm self-tapping screws.
NOTE
We recommend greasing the threads of the bolts to prevent corrosion.
NOTICE! Risk of damage!
The holder may only be attached to steel panels with a minimum thickness of
1.5 mm using self-tapping screws.
