Safety and installation instructions

WARNING!
Danger of personal injury by vehicle.
Reversing video systems are designed merely as an additional aid for reversing, however this does not relieve you of the duty to take proper care when reversing.

Please observe the prescribed safety instructions and stipulations from the vehicle manufacturer and service workshops.

Please note the following:

To prevent the risk of short circuits, always disconnect the negative terminal of the vehicle’s electrical system before working on it.
If the vehicle has an additional battery, its negative terminal should also be disconnected.
Inadequate supply cable connections could result in short circuits, causing:
- Cable fires
- The airbag being triggered
- Damage to electronic control equipment
- Electrical malfunctions (indicators, brake light, horn, ignition, lights)
When working on the following cables, only use insulated cable terminals, plugs and flat sockets:
- 30 (direct supply from positive battery terminal)
- 15 (connected positive terminal, behind the battery)
- 31 (return cable from the battery, earth)
- 58 (reversing light)
  Do not use porcelain wire connectors.
Use a crimping tool to connect the cables.
Screw the cable when connecting cable 31 (earth)
- Screw on the cable using a cable terminal and serrated washer to one of the vehicle’s earth bolts or
- Screw the cable to the bodywork using a cable terminal and a self-tapping screw
  Make sure there is a good earth connection.

If you disconnect the negative terminal of the battery, all data stored in the volatile memories will be lost.

The following data must be reset, depending on the vehicle equipment options:
- Radio code
- Vehicle clock
- Timer
- On-board computer
- Seat position

You can find instructions for making these settings in the operating manual.

Observe the following installation instructions:

Secure the parts of the camera which are installed in the vehicle in such a way that they cannot become loose under any circumstances (sudden braking, accidents) and cause injuries to the occupants of the vehicle.
Secure any parts of the system concealed by the bodywork in such a manner that they cannot be come loose or damage other parts or cables, or impair vehicle functions (steering, pedals, etc).
To prevent damage when drilling, make sure there is sufficient space on the other side for the drill head to emerge.
De burr all drill holes and treat them with a rust-protection agent.
Always follow the safety instructions of the vehicle manufacturer.
Some work (e.g. on retention systems such as the AIRBAG etc.) may only be performed by qualified specialists.

Observe the following instructions when working with electrical parts:

When testing the voltage in electrical cables, only use a diode test lamp or a voltmeter.
Test lamps with a bulb consume too much voltage, which can damage the vehicle’s electronic system.
When making electrical connections, ensure that:
- they are not kinked or twisted
- they do not rub on edges
- they are not laid in sharp-edged ducts without protection (fig.1).
Insulate all connections.
Secure the cables against mechanical wear by using cable binders or insulating tape, for example on existing
cables.

The camera is watertight. However, the seals on the camera cannot withstand a high-pressure cleaner (fig.2).
Installation instruction
Therefore, you should observe the following instructions when handling the camera:

People (including children) whose physical, sensory or mental capacities or whose lack of experience or knowledge prevent them from using this product safely should not use it without the supervision or instruction of a responsible person.
Do not open the camera, as this impairs the leak tightness and the function of the camera (fig.3 ).
Do not pull at the cables, as this impairs the tightness and the function of the camera (fig.4 ).
The camera is not suitable for use under water (fig.5)

Intended use

The double camera CAM35 is primarily intended for use in the vehicles Fiat Ducato, Citroën Jumper, Peugeot Boxer starting from model year 2006 with single roof. The camera console is mounted between the bodywork and the brake light. It can be used in video systems to observe the space around the vehicle from the driver’s seat when maneuvering or parking, for example.

This product is only suitable for the intended purpose and application in accordance with these instructions.
This manual provides information that is necessary for proper installation and/or operation of the product. Poor installation and/or improper operating or maintenance will result in unsatisfactory performance and a possible failure.

Technical description

The reversing camera and the long-distance camera (only CAM35 TWIN) are housed in one console for the original brake light. The camera image is transferred to a monitor via a system cable. The CAM35 is also suitable for connection to the original Fiat navigation system Uconect, as the cameras provide an NTSC video signal.

The camera consists of the following elements:

No. in fig.8, page 5	Description
1	Reversing camera
2	Long-distance camera (only CAM35 TWIN)
3	6-pin connection cable for long-distance camera (only CAM35 TWIN)
4	6-pin connection cable for reversing camera

Reversing camera

Only for CAM35 TWIN

In the CAM35 TWIN, a monitor with two video inputs must be connected that can be switched between the image of the reversing and the long-distance cameras.
The long-distance camera transmits the image as if you were looking in the rear view mirror.

Only for CAM35 NAV

The cameras CAM35REAR NAV and CAM35 TWIN NAV can be connected to monitors from other manufacturers.
A universal adapter is included (CAM35 NAV adapter).

Fitting the camera

Dismantling the brake light

Remove the two screws of the brake light (fig. 9).
Remove the plug of the brake light (fig.10).

Laying cables

NOTICE! Beware of damage.

When drilling holes, check beforehand that there is sufficient space on the other side for the drill head to come out.
Cables and connections that are not properly installed will cause malfunctions or damage to components. Correct installation of cables and connections ensures lasting and trouble-free operation of the retrofitted components.
The cables may not be exposed for long periods to solvents such as benzene, since solvents can damage the cable.

Therefore, please observe the following instructions:

As far as possible, use original ducts for laying the cables, or other suitable options such as paneling edges, ventilation grilles or dummy plugs. If no openings are available, you must drill holes for the cables. Check beforehand that there is sufficient space on the other side for the drill head to emerge.
Wherever possible, lay cables inside the vehicle, as they are better protected there than outside.
If you do need to lay a cable outside the vehicle, ensure that it is well fastened (use additional cable ties, insulating tape etc.).
To prevent damage to the cables when laying them, ensure that they are far enough away from hot or moving vehicle components (exhaust pipes, drive shafts, light systems, fans, heaters, etc.). Use corrugated piping or other protective materials to protect against mechanical wear.
Screw on the plug connections for the connecting cables to protect them against water penetration (fig.14,).
When laying the cables, make sure:
- they are not kinked or twisted
- they do not rub on edges
- they are not laid in sharp-edged ducts without protection.
Attach the cables securely in the vehicles to prevent tripping hazards. This can be performed by using cable binders, insulating tape or gluing in place with adhesives.
Lay the system cable.

Establishing the electrical connection for the camera

NOTE

Lay the camera cable so that, should you need to remove the camera, you can access the plug connection between the camera and the extension cable easily. This greatly facilitates the disassembly.
To minimize corrosion in the plug, apply a small amount of grease, such as pin grease, in one of the plugs.

Guide the connector of the brake light through the console.
Re-attach the plug (fig.11) of the brake light onto the brake light.
Connect the camera as shown in (fig.12) to (fig.14)
