WARNING!

Be sure to disconnect the battery (-) terminal before starting. This is to prevent short circuits during installa- tion.

Procedure

1.Disconnect the negative (-) lead from the vehicle’s battery.

2.Find a place in the vehicle for the video source(s).

3.Create passage holes for the power and video cables.

When drilling through metal or plastic, use grommets to protect the cables from sharp edges that could penetrate the insulation and cause a short circuit and device failure.

Use sand paper to remove any paint from the surface where you attach the ground terminal.

5.Reconnect the negative (-) lead to the battery.
