Installation
• Maintenance, adjustment and repair work may be carried out only by an expert or
a specialised workshop.
• This installation manual does not apply to all vehicle types. Due to the huge
number of manufacturers and automotive makes, the following installation steps
should serve as general guidelines. In case of vehicle-specific questions, please
contact the manufacturer or a specialist workshop.
• The product serves merely as assistance with reverse driving. It does not absolve
the driver from his or her responsibility to drive carefully. The operating principles
of the park assist system may mean that some obstacles are not shown, or are
not reliably shown. The manufacturer accepts no liability for damages arising from
such a case.
• A park assist system is intended to increase the safety and protection. It is not
intended to replace other safe driving habits. Making detailed checks and looking
around before reversing is recommended. This applies especially in the vicinity of
pedestrians or in areas with traffic that crosses the direction of reverse travel as
well as for use in darkness or glaring light. The device's operating principles may
mean that some obstacles are not detected, or are not reliably detected.
• When installing and operating the system, always observe the applicable motor
vehicle regulations and road traffic regulations. Get yourself familiarised before
driving in a foreign country, whether the mounting, mounting location and opera-
tion of the product is permitted and does not violate applicable laws or ordinances.
• The function of the park assist system can be affected by heavy dirt or precipita-
tion on the outdoor unit.
• The outdoor unit is waterproof. This system construction enables use outside a
motor vehicle. To avoid damage to the outdoor unit from sprayed water getting
into it, cleaning the outdoor unit with cleaning devices that use pressurised water
(steam blasters) is not permitted. Contravention will result in loss of guarantee/
warranty!
• Improper mounting and cabling of the camera can lead to damage of the electrical
system of the vehicle, including important computer and operating systems. This
could also lead to an accident or fire, which could result in material damage and/or
serious personal injury. We recommend having a qualified automotive electrician
carry out the installation and connection.
• The device may be used only with the 12 V/DC vehicle power supply (with the
negative terminal of the battery connected to the body of the vehicle). Never con-
nect the park assist system to any other voltage supply.
• Also observe the safety and operating instructions of any other devices that are
connected to this product.
• If you have doubts about how the product should be operated or how to safely
connect it, consult a qualified technician.
• If you have any questions that are not answered in these operating instructions,
please contact our technical customer service or another specialist.
Modifications to the vehicle made necessary due to the installation of the product
or other components must always be carried out in such a manner that neither the
traffic safety nor the design stability of the motor vehicle are impaired. Cutting out
a section of the sheet metal will already void the MOT for many vehicles. Find out
ahead of time from the vehicle manufacturer or a specialist shop.
The park assist system is designed for installation on the rear of the vehicle. If it
is installed on the front side of the vehicle, damage from falling rocks cannot be
excluded. The warranty/guarantee will be void!
If you are in doubt when selecting a place for installation, consult your vehicle dealer.
When installing your park assist system, take into consideration the risks that can
arise from components being torn away in the event of an accident. Therefore, you
should secure each component in a place where it will not pose any risk to passen-
gers.
Before drilling, make sure that this will not damage any electric cables, brake leads,
the fuel tank or suchlike.
If holes are bored in the body of your vehicle, the filings must be removed, and
the bare metal areas must be protected against corrosion with suitable measures
(colour, preserving spray, etc.).
Be sure to follow the safety instructions of the tool manufacturer, when using tools to
install your product.
When attaching the outdoor unit, you must always take its detection area into con-
sideration; otherwise it will not be able to show obstacles sufficiently or at all. The
locations at which the product is installed must be chosen carefully, as this affects
the efficiency of the system as a whole. For this reason, we recommend that you
first connect the outdoor unit provisionally and determine the final mounting location
based on the image in the monitor.
The outdoor unit should never be installed directly above the exhaust pipe or at too
low a height above the ground. Additionally, no parts of the vehicle may be within
detection range. This would significantly affect its functionality.
