Operating Instructions

WARNING

This symbol means important instructions. Failure to heed them can result in serious injury or death.

WHEN USING A CAMERA SYSTEM, THE DRIVER MUST VISUALLY CHECK THE ACTUAL CONDITIONS AROUND THE VEHICLE. MAKE SURE THERE ARE NO PERSONS OR ANIMALS IN THE AREA IN WHICH YOU ARE MANOEUVRING OTHERWISE, YOU COULD INJURE THEM.

A camera assists the driver by sending images to the screen showing conditions in view of the camera. The camera uses a wide-angle lens. Therefore, there is a difference in distance perspective between what is normally seen and what appears on the screen. Also, the images shown by the rearview camera are reversed, so as to appear the same as what is seen through the rearview mirror.

The camera may not perform at full capacity due to variables such as:

  • Weather conditions such as hard rain, snow, fog, or mud
  • Extremely high or low temperatures near the camera
  • The slope of the vehicle and/or roadway
  • Direct exposure to very bright light such as a headlamp or bright sunlight
  • Moving from very dark to very bright light and vice versa such as in parking garages or tunnels
  • Extremely low-light areas
  • Walls or objects that are located diagonally in relation to the camera
  • Retracted mirrors that change the camera viewing angle
  • Open doors or trunks
  • Changes to the height of the vehicle due to loading capacity or hydraulic suspensions
  • Obstacles located at the corner of the vehicle

DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OR ALTER.

Doing so may result in an accident, fire, or electric shock.

KEEP SMALL OBJECTS SUCH AS BOLTS OR SCREWS OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.

Swallowing them may result in serious injury. If swallowed, consult a Doctor immediately.

USE THE CORRECT AMPERE RATING WHEN REPLACING FUSES.

Failure to do so may result in fire or electric shock.

USE ONLY IN CARS WITH A 12-VOLT NEGATIVE GROUND.

( Check with your dealer if you are not sure.) Failure to do so may result in fire, etc.

BEFORE WIRING, DISCONNECT THE CABLE FROM THE NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL.

Failure to do so may result in electric shock or injury due to electrical shorts.

DO NOT USE BOLTS OR NUTS IN THE BRAKE OR STEERING SYSTEMS TO MAKE GROUND CONNECTIONS.

Bolts or nuts used for the brake or steering systems (or any other safety-related system), or tanks should NEVER be used for installations or ground connections. Using such parts could disable control of the vehicle and cause fire etc.

DO NOT DAMAGE PIPE OR WIRING WHEN DRILLING HOLES.

When drilling holes in the chassis for installation, take precautions so as not to contact, damage or obstruct pipes, fuel lines, tanks or electrical wiring. Failure to take such precautions may result in fire.

MINIMISE DISPLAY VIEWING WHILE DRIVING.

Viewing the display may distract the driver from looking ahead of the vehicle and cause an accident.

DO NOT SPLICE INTO ELECTRICAL CABLES.

Never cut away cable insulation to supply power to other equipment. Doing so will exceed the current carrying capacity of the wire and result in fire or electric shock.

DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS THAT MIGHT HINDER VEHICLE OPERATION, SUCH AS THE STEERING WHEEL OR GEAR LEVER.

Doing so may obstruct forward vision or hamper movement etc. and results in serious accident.

DO NOT ALLOW CABLES TO BECOME ENTANGLED IN SURROUNDING OBJECTS.

Arrange wiring and cables in compliance with the manual to prevent obstructions when driving. Cables or wiring that obstruct or hang up on places such as the steering wheel, gear lever, brake pedals, etc. can be extremely hazardous.

DO NOT ROUTE ELECTRICAL CABLES NEAR HOT OR MOVING PARTS

Route the cables and wiring away from hot or moving parts. Fix them securely to avoid heat/mechanical damage to the cable insulation, which may result in shortcircuit, fire or electric shock.

MAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONS.

When making connections to the vehicle’s electrical system, be aware of the factory-installed components ( e.g. on-board computer). Do not tap into these leads to provide power for this unit. When connecting the device to the fuse box, make sure the fuse for the intended circuit of the device has the appropriate amperage. Failure to do so may result in fire or damage to the unit and/or the vehicle. When in doubt, consult your Alpine dealer.

USE THIS PRODUCT FOR MOBILE 12-VOLT APPLICATIONS.

Use other than its designed application may result in fire, electric shock, or other injury.

CHECK THAT THE CAMERA MOUNTINGS ARE ATTACHED SECURELY AND THAT THE SCREWS ARE TIGHT BEFORE DRIVING.

Failure to do so may result in an accident.

WHEN INSTALLING OR CHECKING A CAMERA, DO SO AFTER PARKING THE CAR IN A LEVEL, SAFE PLACE, TURNING OFF THE ENGINE, AND APPLYING THE HAND BRAKE.

Failure to do so may result in an accident.

WHEN USING A DRILL TO MAKE A HOLE, TAKE PRECAUTIONS SUCH AS WEARING GOGGLES SO FRAGMENTS DO NOT GET INTO THE EYES.

Failure to do so may result in injury.

CAUTION This symbol means important instructions. Failure to heed them can result in injury or material property damage.

HAVE THE WIRING AND INSTALLATION BEEN DONE BY EXPERTS?

The wiring and installation of this unit require special technical skills and experience. To ensure safety, always contact the dealer where you purchased this product to have the work done.

ARRANGE THE WIRING SO IT IS NOT CRIMPED OR PINCHED BY A SHARP METAL EDGE.

Route the cables and wiring away from moving parts (like the seat rails) or sharp or pointed edges. This will prevent crimping and damage to the wiring.

USE SPECIFIED ACCESSORY PARTS AND INSTALL THEM SECURELY.

Be sure to use only the specified accessory parts. Use of other than designated parts may damage this unit internally or may not securely install the unit in place. This may cause parts to become loose resulting in hazards or product failure.
