Image Orientation button on the monitor to correct the image.
There are four different views for the monitor, each time the button is pressed the im-
age will change.
These different views allow you to mount the camera and/or monitor either right side
up or upside down and still display the image correctly on the monitor. The image
displayed should match your rear view mirror.
After testing the unit and you are satisfied with the route you have chosen for the
cabling, you must permanently install it.
Fully tighten the license plate bolts.
Route all wires behind interior panels or under carpeting so they are hidden.
Use supplied cable ties to neatly gather any excess wire.

FCC & Industry Canada Information
Insert the existing wire
to be tapped.
Insert the wire to be
attached.
Crimp tap with pliers,
then close lock
You do not need to use the Scotch-Lok
TM
connectors. The camera can be wired directly
to the reverse light circuit by stripping the reverse light wires then twisting the camera
wires to the exposed reverse light wires. Once connected, wrap with electrical tape. Do
not attempt this if you are not knowledgeable with electrical installation practices.
6. If you are going to drill a hole, choose a
location as close to the camera where the
power cable comes out of it. Before you drill
a hole you MUST CHECK and see WHAT
IS BEHIND WHERE YOU ARE DRILLING. If
there are any vehicles components, such as
electrical parts or fuel system components
behind where you are drilling, you must take
whatever precaution is necessary not to
damage them. Remove the license plate and
camera before drilling.
7. After you have drilled a hole, insert the sup-
plied grommet (Fig.5), then pass the power
cable through the grommet into the vehicle
(Fig.6). You must use the grommet to prevent
the metal edge of the hole from cutting the
power cable.
10. The reverse light sockets on most vehicles have two wires connected to them.
Usually the negative wire is black and the positive wire is a colored wire. If you are
uncertain about the wiring, you can use a 12 volt test light available at most auto
parts stores to determine which is the positive wire.
a. Remove the the reverse light socket from its housing, then remove the blub from
the socket.
b. Engage the parking brake, turn the ignition key to the ON position, but do not start
the vehicle. Put the gear shift in the reverse position.
c. Attach the ground wire of the test light to the vehicle ground, then touch one of the
socket’s contacts with the positive lead.
e. If the test light lights up, then the wire corresponding to that contact is the positive
wire. If it doesn’t light up the opposite wire is the positive wire.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the safe use of the test light.
Installation
5. Some vehicle’s may have a hole available to
pass the wire through, (Fig.3) such as where
the license plate light is mounted, or you can
drill a hole close to where the power cable
is attached to the camera. (Fig.4) Once you
have chosen where the cable will enter the
vehicle’s body, remove the camera. If you
able to use an existing opening, skip the
next two steps.
8. Next you’ll need to find the vehicle’s reverse
lights. Turn the vehicle’s ignition key to the
accessory position, engage the parking
brake and put the car in reverse. Look at the
vehicle’s tail lights to see where the reverse
lights are located, they are the white lights.
To locate the reverse light’s 12V+ wire it will
be necessary to gain access to the rear of
the vehicle’s tail light.
For help locating the vehicle’s reverse light
circuit contact your vehicle’s manufacturer
for vehicle specific wiring diagrams.

9. Once you have located the reverse light cir-
cuit you will have to route the camera’s pow-
er cable to that location. You must securely
fasten the power cable to prevent it from be-
ing caught on any vehicle component such
as the trunk hinge (Fig.7). Never route the
cable on the outside of the vehicle.
Fig.7
11. After determining which wire is the positive and which is the negative, turn off the
ignition key, then remove the battery’s negative cable.
12. Following the Scotch-LokTM instructions section, splice the Red wire using the
supplied in-line Scotch-LokTM wire connectors to the reverse light’s positive (+)
wire. Use a set of slip joint pliers to squeeze the TAP and insure good connection.
13. Next splice the black wire of the camera’s power cable to the reverse light’s nega-
tive (-) wire or ground.
14. Replace the reverse light bulb, then re-install the light socket. Secure all the wires with
cable ties or electrical tape. Re-attach the negative battery cable to the battery.
