OPERATION

Installing the backup camera system

Caution!
Due to differences in technical and design-related
vehicle types, these instructions for use do not ap-
ply to all vehicle models.
Step 1: Remove license plate
First remove the rear license plate and, if applicable,
also the license plate frame (see image 2).

Step 2: Hole for camera cable
Now look for an opening / drill hole near the license
plate opening into the interior of the vehicle to feed
the connector cable plug of the camera (1) into the
interior of the vehicle. For added visibility and easy
installation remove the interior trim near the license
plate. If the vehicle has no opening, drill a hole using
an 10 mm (diameter) drill bit in the area covered by
the license plate.
Caution!
be sure there are no electrical wires or other auto-
motive parts in the area where you will be drilling
which could be damaged!
To protect the borehole in the metal panel from
corrosion the metal edges should be coated with
a suitable paint coating (e.g. automaker's touchup
pen) and allow to dry adequately.
Then insert the gasket (8) into the bore from the
outside of the vehicle and secure.
Step 3: Mounting the camera brackets
Mount the two camera brackets (9) and, if ap-
plicable, also the number plate frame. Be sure the
distance between the two brackets (9) is no less
than 4 cm (see image 3). The camera may be
mounted above or below the license number. Image
3 shows installation above the license number.
Caution!
The location of the camera brackets may not impair
the functionality of the license number light! If it
impairs the license number light mount the camera
on the opposite side.
Minimum distance 4 cm

Step 4: Mounting the camera
Feed the plug for the camera cable (1) through the
gasket (8) into the interior of the vehicle or the boot
lid. Mount the camera (1) to the camera brackets (9)
evenly spaced from the sides (see image 4). Mount
using the two screws (5) and the two clamping nuts
(6) (see image 5). Stop turning the clamping nuts
when you feel resistance and the camera is securely
connected to the bracket. Be sure the cable outlet
at the back of the camera always points upward to
maintain the maximum swivel range.
