This manual provides detailed instructions for installation, operation, and troubleshooting to ensure optimal performance and safety.

Please read this manual carefully before installation and use. Due to continuous product improvements, some descriptions may differ slightly from the actual equipment.

2. Safety Information

Your safety is paramount. Please observe the following safety guidelines:

1. It is forbidden to watch videos or other visual accessories while driving. Active use of the system during driving is not recommended as it can reduce attention and may result in traffic violations and road accidents.
2. The unit is designed for use in cars with a 12V power supply and a negative ground. Do not install the system in a bus or truck with an on-board voltage of 24V, as this may cause damage to the device.
3. Use a special cleaning device to care for the screen.
4. To avoid overheating, do not allow direct exposure to sunlight and do not install near the heating system. The optimal operating temperature is between 0°C and 35°C. If the temperature inside the vehicle is too high, cool the interior before switching on the system. It is also not recommended to operate the unit at very low temperatures. Wait until the interior and vehicle temperatures return to normal. When the temperature is low, the image on the screen may change with a delay, which is not a malfunction.
5. Only use the fasteners provided (screws, mounting frames, etc.) for installation. The use of other fasteners may result in damage to the system and is not covered by the warranty.
6. Installation and connection of the device shall be performed by a qualified specialist or specially trained staff of a service center.
7. Do not reset to factory settings on your own unless in extreme cases, as this will cause loss of settings, which may result in incorrect operation of the system.
