2.The precise location to install the camera bracket varies based on the vehicle make/model. See Figure 2. Find the horizontal offset “A”, and vertical offset “B” for the vehicle. The intersection of "A" and "B" will line up with a notch in the windshield bracket during installation. When measuring for the window bracket placement, measure from the center of the windshield and from the solid black area at the top. For vehicles with split-windshields, measure from the middle of the center divider. For one- piece windshields, typically there is a graphical indicator to show the middle point.

3.Use a measuring tape and fine-tipped pen to mark on the windshield the installation point for the bracket.

4.See Figure 2 Remove the plastic film from the adhesive on the windshield bracket. Place a small level on the leveling tabs. Touching only the top edge of the bracket to the glass at first, align your mark with the notch in the bracket. Adjust the angle of the bracket until it is level, then carefully bring the rest of the bracket into contact with the glass, making sure that the notch remains lined up with the point marked on the glass. While it is lightly

seated, verify again that the bracket is level — at this point some adjustment is still possible. Once you have confirmed that the bracket is completely level, press it firmly to the windshield for 10 seconds to ensure a good bond.

5.Install the camera onto the mounting bracket and route the harness to the compartment above.

PROCESSOR PLACEMENT

1.The processor will typically be mounted on the passenger side of the vehicle in a front overhead compartment. When selecting the ideal location, be sure to consider that there must be no pinching or binding of the camera cable, and that there should be easy access to all of the unit's connections.

2.It is recommended to position the processor unit so that the large connector is oriented to the passenger side of the vehicle. A good practice is to leave 12 in. (or more) of excess harness on the connector side for a service loop. The processor should be mounted flat, using the hook-and-loop-fastener pad to attach it to the vehicle.
