SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Always follow the safety precautions below when installing the device.
WARNING
This device is a rear view camera intended for vehicle installation. Do not use it else-
where except when mounted on a vehicle.
If not, this may result in fuming, fire, electric shock or injury.
Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the unit.
Never disassemble, modify or cut the cable cover to draw power from other devices. Doing so may re-
sult in accident, fire, electric shock or other malfunction.
Do not cut the camera cable
Moisture or water may get inside the camera through the damaged part, resulting in malfunction or fire.
Never use the vehicle's safety-related parts* for mounting or grounding the device.
* Nuts and bolts in the steering system, seat rails, brake system, tanks, etc.
Doing so may result in loss of control, fire or traffic accident.
Never drive while looking at the monitor screen only
The monitor is an auxiliary equipment for checking obstacles and so on but the field of view is limited.
As the actual distance may differ from your perception, make sure you conduct a safety check visu-
ally while driving. Failure to do so may result in a person or object in the camera's blind spot to be hit,
causing a serious accident.
Discontinue use in the event of malfunction or abnormality.
If there is no image, or when there is smoke or strange odors, stop using the camera immediately and
make sure you consult your dealer. Continued use may result in an accident, fire or electric shock.
Do not put water or foreign objects inside the device
In the event water or foreign objects get inside the device, and when there is smoke or strange odors,
stop using the camera immediately and make sure you consult your dealer. Continued use may result
in an accident, fire or electric shock. Make sure you consult your dealer.
Before making connections, disconnect the negative battery terminal.
Failure to do so may result in electric shock or injury due to short-circuit.
Keep the cables away from hot areas
The covering of the cables may melt, causing a short-circuit and resulting in an accident or fire. Pay
particular attention to the wiring inside the engine room.
Engage the services of a professional technician to connect and disconnect.
Failure to do so may result in an accident or fire. Contact the dealer where the device was purchased.
After installation and wiring work, check the operation of the car's electrical compo-
nents
* Brakes, lights, horn, hazard lamps, blinkers, etc.
Malfunctioning equipment may lead to fire, electric shock or traffic accident.
When drilling holes and installing the device on the vehicle side, check the positions of
the pipes, tanks, electrical wiring etc. to make sure there is no interference or contact.
Damage to the pipes etc. may lead to fire or malfunction.
Lay and consolidate the cables so that they do not obstruct the operations
When the cables are wrapped around the steering wheel, shift lever, brake pedal etc., this may result in
accidents.
Reverse the car at a slow speed
The image on the rear monitor uses a wide angle lens. As the actual distance differs from your percep-
tion, reversing at a high speed may risk collision with people and objects, resulting in a serious acci-
dent.
CAUTION
This device is a vehicle-mounted rear view camera. Do not use the device underwater
Doing so may result in smoke, fire, electric shock or injury.
After installation, do not hit or subject this device to strong impacts.
The mounting angle of the camera may change, or the screen may not appear normally. Malfunctions
and damages may also result from the impacts, causing fire and electric shock. Do not subject the
camera to strong impacts as it is a precision machine. Malfunctions and damages may occur, resulting
in fire and electric shock.
Inspect the installation screws occasionally and tighten them if they are loose.
If the screws are loose, the device may become detached and fall off, hitting a passer-by and causing
an accident.
Follow the instructions in the manual when mounting and connecting the device.
Incorrect connection may result in fire or accident.
After mounting the device, check that the monitor image is a mirror image (back mirror).
Incorrect setup may mean that the monitor image is not horizontally flipped, resulting in accident.
The rear view monitor image is inverted on the left and right just like your car's back
mirror.
The viewing angle may differ depending on the vehicle.
Be sure to use the accessories and specified parts.
Using components other than those specified may lead to damage of the parts inside the device or the
inability to secure them firmly, resulting in them becoming detached and leading to an accident or mal-
function.
CAUTION
After wiring the various cords, secure them with clamps and/or insulating tape.
If the cables come into contact with the vehicle side, they will fray and short-circuit, leading to an ac-
cident or fire.
Use protective tubing or insulating grommet when making a hole in the vehicle side to
route the cables.
If the cables come into contact with the openings, they will fray and short-circuit, leading to an accident
or fire.
If a hole is made in the vehicle side to mount the device or route the cables, seal the
gap in the hole and the gap between the hole and the cable with silicon adhesive or
something similar.
If exhaust gas or water gets inside the vehicle through the gap, it may result in an accident.
Route the cables so that they do not get caught in the vehicle side, screws, seat rails or
other moving parts.
Damaged or short-circuited cables may result in an accident, electric shock or fire.
When mounting the camera outside the car, make sure it is mounted within the range
stipulated under the law.
If the screws in the vehicle side are used to mount the device, be sure to tighten them
securely.
Loose screws may result in an accident or malfunction.
