Installation Guide
The LeeKooLuu LK1 system is designed for easy installation. Please follow these steps carefully:
- Mount the Mirror Monitor: Securely attach the 4.3-inch mirror monitor over your vehicle's existing rearview mirror using the flexible rubber mounting straps. Ensure it is firmly in place and does not obstruct your view.
- Install the Backup Camera: Mount the license plate camera in a suitable position, typically above your rear license plate. Ensure the camera has a clear, unobstructed view of the area behind your vehicle.
- Connect Camera Power: The camera can be powered by connecting its power cord to your vehicle's reverse lights. This allows the camera to activate automatically when the vehicle is shifted into reverse gear. Alternatively, for continuous use, the camera can be powered by directly connecting to a 12V source from your fuse box, cigarette lighter (using the provided adapter), or ignition switch.
- Route Video Cable: Connect the video cable from the backup camera to the mirror monitor. Carefully route the cable through your vehicle's interior, ensuring it is tucked away safely and does not interfere with any moving parts or vehicle operation.
- Connect Monitor Power: Connect the monitor's power cord. If you powered the camera via reverse lights, the monitor will typically receive power through the video cable when the camera activates. If you powered the camera for continuous use, ensure the monitor also receives continuous power from a 12V source. The cigarette lighter adapter can be used for easy power connection.
- Test the System: Once all connections are made, start your vehicle and shift into reverse gear (if connected to reverse lights) or turn on the ignition (for continuous power). Verify that the camera image appears clearly on the mirror monitor.
For detailed wiring diagrams or specific vehicle considerations, it is recommended to consult a professional installer or refer to online resources specific to your vehicle model.
Operation
Automatic Activation
If the camera is wired to your vehicle's reverse lights, the mirror monitor will automatically display the rear view when you shift your vehicle into reverse gear. The display will turn off or revert to a normal mirror when you shift out of reverse.
Continuous Operation
If the camera and monitor are wired to a continuous 12V power source (e.g., cigarette lighter, fuse box), the system will remain active as long as the vehicle's ignition is on or the power source is live.
Adjusting Display Parameters
The mirror monitor allows for adjustment of various display settings to optimize image quality. These typically include:
- Brightness: Adjust the overall luminosity of the screen.
- Contrast: Modify the difference between light and dark areas.
- Hue: Adjust the color tint.
- Saturation: Control the intensity of colors.
Refer to the monitor's on-screen menu or physical buttons for specific adjustment procedures.
Customizing Guide Lines
The parking guide lines can be adjusted to suit your preference and vehicle dimensions:
- Width Adjustment: Modify the horizontal spread of the lines.
- Position Adjustment: Move the lines up, down, left, or right on the screen.
- Disable Guide Lines: The guide lines can be turned off if not desired.
These adjustments are typically made through the monitor's settings menu.
Image Flip Function
To change the camera's image orientation between mirror view (for rear) and facing view (for front), locate the green wire on the camera's cable and carefully cut it. This action will toggle the image orientation.
Maintenance
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your LeeKooLuu LK1 system.
- Cleaning the Camera Lens: Regularly clean the camera lens with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt, dust, or water spots. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the lens.
- Cleaning the Monitor Screen: Use a soft, lint-free cloth to gently wipe the monitor screen. For stubborn smudges, a screen cleaner designed for electronics can be used. Do not spray liquid directly onto the screen.
- Check Connections: Periodically inspect all cable connections to ensure they are secure and free from corrosion or damage.
- Avoid Extreme Temperatures: While the system is designed for temperature resistance, prolonged exposure to extreme heat or cold when not in use can affect its lifespan.
- Water Exposure: Despite being IP69 waterproof, avoid directing high-pressure water sprays directly at the camera during car washes.
