IMPORTANT!
Read all instructions before installing and using. Installer: This manual must be
delivered to the end user.
!
WARNING!
Failure to install or use this product according to manufacturers recommendations may result in property
damage, serious bodily/personal injury, and/or death to you and those you are seeking to protect!
Do not install and/or operate this safety product unless you have read and understand the safety
information contained in this manual.
1. Proper installation combined with operator training in the use, care, and maintenance of safety products are essential to ensure the
safety of you and those you are trying to protect.
2. Exercise caution when working with live electrical connections.
3. This product must be properly grounded. Inadequate grounding and/or shorting of electrical connections can cause high
current arcing, which can cause personal injury and/or severe vehicle damage, including fire.
4. Proper placement and installation are vital to the performance of this safety product. Install this product so that the
performance of the system is maximized and the controls are placed within convenient reach of the operator so that
s/he can operate the system without losing eye contact with the roadway.
5. It is the responsibility of the vehicle operator to ensure during use that all features of this product work correctly. In use,
the vehicle operator should ensure the field-of-view of the camera/monitor is not blocked by vehicle components (i.e., open
trunks or compartment doors), people, vehicles, or other obstructions.
6. Never take the right-of-way for granted. It is your responsibility to be sure you can proceed safely before entering an
intersection, driving against traffic, responding at a high rate of speed, walking on or around traffic lanes.
7. This equipment is intended for use by authorized personnel only. The user is responsible for understanding and
obeying all laws regarding safety products. Therefore, the user should check all applicable city, state, and federal laws and regula-
tions. The manufacturer assumes no liability for any loss resulting from the use of this safety product.

Caution! When drilling into any vehicle surface, make sure that the area is free from any electrical wires, fuel lines,
vehicle upholstery, etc. that could be damaged.
Notes:
1. Larger wires and tight connections will provide longer service life for components. For high current wires it is recommended
that terminal blocks or soldered connections be used with shrink tubing to protect the connections. Do not use insulation
displacement connectors (e.g., 3M Scotchlock type connectors)
2. Route wiring using grommets and sealant when passing through compartment walls. Minimize the number of splices to
reduce voltage drop. High ambient temperatures (e.g., under-hood) will significantly reduce the current carrying capacity of
wires, fuses, and circuit breakers. All wiring should conform to the minimum wire size and other recommendations of the
manufacturer and be protected from moving parts and hot surfaces. Looms, grommets, cable ties, and similar installation
hardware should be used to anchor and protect all wiring.
3. Fuses or circuit breakers should be located as close to the power takeoff points as possible and properly sized to protect the
wiring and devices.
4. Particular attention should be paid to the location and method of making electrical connections and splices to protect these
points from corrosion and loss of conductivity.
5. Ground termination should be only be made to substantial chassis components, preferably directly to the vehicle battery.
6. Circuit breakers are very sensitive to high temperatures and will "false trip" when mounted in hot enviroments or operated
close to their capacity.
