1

Prepare Your Vehicle

Park your vehicle on level ground and turn off the engine. Clean the windshield area where the camera will be mounted.

  • Use the alcohol wipe included in your package to clean the glass
  • Make sure the area is completely dry before mounting
2

Mount the Front Camera

Mount the camera behind the rearview mirror, at the top center of the windshield for optimal field of view[reference:0].

  • Position the camera so the lens is within the wiper sweep area for clear views in rain[reference:1]
  • Press the 3M adhesive mount firmly against the glass for 30 seconds
  • Adjust the camera angle using the live view on the app or screen
3

Route the Power Cable

Hide the power cable along the headliner, down the A-pillar, and to your vehicle's 12V cigarette lighter port.

  • Use the trim tool to tuck the cable behind the headliner and pillar trim
  • Make sure the cable does not interfere with airbag deployment
  • Plug the charger into the cigarette lighter port or connect to the hardwire kit

Bench Test Before Finalizing
