Rear Camera Installation

The system includes a 1080P IP67 waterproof rear camera with a 170° viewing angle for safe reversing. Follow these steps for installation:

1. Mount the rear camera securely at the back of your vehicle.
2. Connect the camera cable to the main unit.
3. Identify your vehicle's reverse light wiring. Connect the red wire from the camera cable to your vehicle's reverse light power supply. This ensures the rear image displays automatically when you shift into reverse.

Note: The included rear camera cable is 24.5ft long. If this length is insufficient for your vehicle, please contact customer support for a free extension. This rear camera is designed for auxiliary reversing and rear traffic observation, not for recording.
