Installation of the VTM600M should ideally be performed by a qualified automotive technician. Incorrect installation can lead to damage to the unit or vehicle electrical system.

The mirror is designed for windshield mount. Ensure the mounting location provides clear visibility and does not obstruct the driver's view or airbag deployment.

4.2 Wiring Connections

The unit requires connection to your vehicle's 9-15V power supply. It features two AV inputs for video sources, typically one for a rear-view camera and another for an auxiliary video input. A trigger wire is usually connected to the reverse light circuit to enable automatic display of the rear-view camera when the vehicle is in reverse.

• Power (Red Wire): Connect to a switched 12V power source.
• Ground (Black Wire): Connect to a vehicle chassis ground.
• Reverse Trigger (Green/Blue Wire - typical): Connect to the vehicle's reverse light positive wire.
• AV1/AV2 Inputs (Yellow RCA): Connect your video sources (e.g., backup camera, DVD player).

5.1 Basic Operation

The VTM600M can be controlled via the buttons located on the bottom of the mirror frame or using the included remote control.

6. Maintenance

6.1 Cleaning the Mirror and Screen

To clean the mirror surface and LCD screen, use a soft, lint-free cloth. For stubborn smudges, dampen the cloth slightly with a mild, non-abrasive glass cleaner. Do not spray cleaner directly onto the unit.
