Day/Night Switch:
This switch should be left in the DAY (out) position for normal viewing.
When set in NIGHT (in), picture brightness is reduced. NIGHT should be
used for night viewing and driving through tunnels.
Bright Control:
Clockwise rotation increases the picture brightness. Counterclockwise
rotation decreases the picture brightness.
Contrast Control:
Clockwise rotation increases the picture contrast. Counterclockwise rotation
decreases the picture contrast.
Audio Control:
Clockwise rotation increases the volume level. Counterclockwise rotation
decreases the volume level.
The camera angle may be adjusted to display a suitable rear view. The camera
housing cover will need to be removed to gain access to the hexagon mounting
bolts. The mounting bolts can be repositioned to the desired angle. Refasten the
camera housing cover and seal using an appropriate sealant.
If the destination does not have “pull-through” sites try to pick a solid, level
site. If possible, pick a site located on the left side. The driver will have a better
field of vision by using the driver side mirror. If the site is on the right side the
driver will have to use the passenger side mirror for backing up, which leaves a
blind spot. When a potential site is spotted, stop the motorhome before the site.
Get out and observe the area for soft ground, posts, large rocks, low hanging
limbs or other obstacles. If the site meets your criteria, prepare to back in care-
fully.
Backing up can be a challenge for even a long-time owner of recreational
vehicles. Follow some simple guidelines to help reduce the challenge. When
backing up, the driver (pilot) should be comfortable using the mirrors, the
back-up camera and the co-pilot’s directions (ground guide) for assistance.
Practice backing up, with the co-pilot’s guidance, in a large unobstructed
parking lot. Backing up a motorhome is a team effort.
The backing up process should begin while the motorhome is in forward
motion. Maneuver the motorhome to align it with the chosen site. This allows
straight alignment with the site. Aligning the motorhome with the site will
require considerably more room than an automobile and may require more than
one attempt. When the motorhome is properly aligned with the site, the parking
area will be visible in both mirrors. Use straight lines, such as road markings,
as reference points when possible.
The co-pilot’s job is just as important as the driver. When guiding the driver,
