Australian Road Laws. Clarion strongly recommends that when installing a Reverse Camera to this product, the camera’s power source be derived from the vehicles reversing lamp circuit either directly (if suitable) or via a relay. This will ensure that the Rear View Camera can only be viewed while the vehicle is travelling in a reverse direction.
