Installation Instructions
Introduction
WARNING
See the Important Safety and Product Information guide in the
product box for product warnings and other important
information.
Garmin
®
strongly recommends having an experienced installer
with the proper knowledge of electrical systems install the
device. Incorrectly wiring the power cable can result in damage
to the vehicle or the battery and can cause bodily injury.
When connecting the power cable, do not remove the in-line
fuse holder. To prevent the possibility of injury or product
damage caused by fire or overheating, the appropriate fuse
must be in place as indicated in the product specifications. In
addition, connecting the power cable without the appropriate
fuse in place will void the product warranty.
CAUTION
Always wear safety goggles, ear protection, and a dust mask
when drilling, cutting, or sanding.
NOTICE
When drilling or cutting, always check what is on the opposite
side of the surface.
These installation instructions do not apply to a specific vehicle
type, and are meant as a guide when installing this product on
your vehicle. For questions specific to your vehicle, you should
contact the vehicle manufacturer.

Installation
Camera Mounting Considerations
When selecting a location to mount the camera, observe these
considerations.
• You should test a mounting location before you permanently
mount the camera.
• Installing the camera higher on the back of the vehicle
provides a better viewing angle.
• The included bracket can be clipped onto a license plate or
other similar surface, or it can be fastened to the back of the
vehicle using the included self-tapping, panhead screws.
Transmitter Location and Wiring Considerations
NOTICE
The transmitter is not intended to be held or worn on your body
while it is in use.
When selecting a location to install the wireless transmitter,
observe these considerations.
• You should test a proposed installation location before you
permanently install the transmitter.
• Some vehicles do not provide constant minimum voltage to
the reverse lamps. You should use an automotive relay when
connecting the transmitter and camera to a power source that
does not provide constant voltage.
• Although the transmitter can transmit the video signal
approximately 45 ft (13.5 m), the location of the transmitter
can affect this range.
◦ The closer you install the transmitter to the device, the
more reliable the signal.
◦ The signal transmits from the flat front and back surfaces
À
of the transmitter. The transmitter provides the best
signal when either flat surface points toward the receiver.
◦ Dense metal or appliances
Á
in the path of the transmitter
greatly reduce the transmission distance.
◦ The fewer solid objects that exist between the path of the
transmitter and the device, the more reliable the signal.
• The fuse holder located near the transmitter is not
waterproof. Installing the fuse holder in a location that is
exposed to the elements is not recommended.
• The connector between the camera and the transmitter is not
waterproof. If you make this connection in a location exposed
to the elements, you must make sure that the connection is
waterproof.
• If you are installing the camera on a boat trailer or other
location that may be exposed to water, you must waterproof
all wiring connections and the fuse holder in the transmitter
cable.
Testing the Camera and Transmitter Location
1
Temporarily secure the camera in the preferred mounting
location.
2
Temporarily place the transmitter in the preferred installation
location, and connect it to power and to the camera.
TIP: If you do not want to splice into the wiring of your vehicle
for this test, you can connect the transmitter and camera to a
12 Vdc battery.
3
Test the transmitter for correct operation by viewing the
camera on the compatible Garmin device.
NOTE: You may need to pair the camera to the Garmin
device before you can view the image and test the transmitter
location (Pairing the Camera with a Garmin Navigation
Device, page 3).
