This product is intended to assist in safe driving and to allow the driver to have a broader rear view while the vehicle is in reverse. You, as the driver, are solely responsible for the safe operation of your vehicle and the safety of your passengers according to your local traffic regulations. Do not use any features of this system to the extent it distracts you from safe driving. Your first priority while driving should always be the safe operation of your vehicle.
The ACA240 Wireless Vehicle Rear Observation System is designed to assist the driver by providing a clear and wide image of the area behind the vehicle whenever the vehicle is shifted into reverse. Never rely solely on this product to ensure the area is clear of children and/or obstructions. Use your monitor and look both ways. This product is not intended to replace existing safety procedures, but rather to add an additional safety tool for your vehicle.

Improper installation can cause the system to not work or to run at undesired times. Note: All vehicles are designed differently.
to ensure no wires or mechanisms interfere or could be damaged during drilling. Check for interference with license plate lights and the hatch release switch or mechanism. If not using an existing factory grommet, drill a hole to match the rubber grommet size that you intend to use (13/32" minimum) at the selected location near the vehicle's rear license plate. Route the camera cable connector through the grommet and insert the grommet into the hole to prevent water from entering into the vehicle. 3.

Note: Because this is a wireless system, the monitor is always watching for a video signal. It is possible to receive signals from other cameras. Systems such as Security camera's, Baby monitors, and even other Back up camera systems can trigger the monitor to briefly turn on. This is normal for wireless products. If you find you have too much activation due to video signals in your area, use the included Monitor Power wire and run it to the rear of the vehicle.
