Setting up the Device
<Be Sure to Do This Prior to Using It>
Step1: How to Install/How to Wire
Recommended installation position
Install the device in a position where it will not block the front view of the driver (position where
hidden by the rear-view mirror).
Install the device so that it is within the wiping range of the wiper.
Mounting the device to the center of the windshield behind the rear-view mirror will facilitate
optimal video recording.
CAUTION
When passing the power cord through the front pillar or another part, observe the following
points when performing the wiring work.
Wire the power cord farther forward or farther rearward than the airbag so that it does not interfere with
the airbag.
In the case of a vehicle in which the front pillar cover is fixed in place with special clips or the like, the clips
may need to be replaced after you remove the front pillar cover. For how to remove the front pillar cover,
the availability of replacement parts, and other information, contact the vehicle dealer.
Fix the power cord in place with commercially available soft tape or the like so that it does not interfere
with driving.
1
Confirm that your car is parked in a level area.
2
Use a commercially available cleaning cloth to wipe off any dirt
or grease from the location you are mounting the device.
3
Follow the procedure below to mount the device securely inside
the car.
Confirm the position in which to affix the device, and then affix it. To strengthen
the bond of the adhesive tape, let it set for over 24 hours before use.
