5. Installation Guide
5.1. Monitor Installation
- Choose a Location: Select a suitable location on your vehicle's dashboard or windshield that provides a clear view for the driver without obstructing visibility or airbags.
- Attach Mounting Bracket: Secure the monitor mounting bracket to the chosen surface. Ensure it is firmly attached.
- Mount Monitor: Attach the monitor to the mounting bracket. Adjust the angle for optimal viewing.
- Connect Power: Connect the monitor's power cable to a 12V DC power source in your vehicle (e.g., cigarette lighter adapter or direct wiring to an ignition-switched power source).
- Attach Antenna: Screw the antenna onto the designated port on the monitor.
5.2. Camera Installation
- Select Mounting Position: Install the camera at the rear of your vehicle, typically above the license plate or on the bumper, ensuring a clear view of the area behind the vehicle.
- Secure Camera: Use the provided hardware to securely mount the camera.
- Connect Power: Connect the camera's power cable to a 12V DC power source. For backup camera functionality, it is recommended to connect the power to the vehicle's reverse light circuit so the camera activates automatically when the vehicle is in reverse.
- Attach Antenna: Screw the antenna onto the designated port on the camera.
5.3. Pairing (If Necessary)
The monitor and camera are typically pre-paired from the factory. If pairing is lost or you are adding an additional camera (if supported by your specific model), follow these steps:
- Power on both the monitor and the camera.
- Access the monitor's menu and navigate to the 'Pairing' or 'Channel' option.
- Follow the on-screen prompts to initiate the pairing process. The camera usually has a pairing button that needs to be pressed within a specific timeframe.
- Once successfully paired, the camera's image will appear on the monitor.
