Installation & usage

Voltage, wiring, sealing and maintenance guidance for the installer.

Before wiring, confirm the supply is DC 12V (8–15V) and never reverse the polarity.
When installing the top cover, be sure to press the PC dome cover firmly with your hands to compact the o-ring, and then tighten the top cover - The manufacturer's instructions clearly state: Only in this way can IP67 waterproofing be guaranteed
After adjusting the angle of the ball head, be sure to tighten the hexagonal screw to avoid angle deviation after long-term vibration
Route and secure the cable away from the engine and other hot surfaces, and clear of sharp sheet-metal edges.
Tighten the connector and fit the waterproof boot to keep water out.
Wipe the PC ball cover with a soft cloth. Do not scratch it with a hard object to avoid scratches and affect the light transmission
The installation position should not block the driver's view and avoid the airbag deployment area
