• Measuring ruler (fig. 1 5, page 3)
• Hammer (fig. 1 6, page 3)
• Centre punch (fig. 1 7, page 3)
To establish and test the electrical connection, the following tools are required:

• Crimping tool (fig. 1 10, page 3)

6.2
Installing the modules
!
CAUTION!
Select the location of the modules so that they cannot injure the passengers in the
vehicle under any circumstances (e.g. sudden braking, road traffic accidents).
Observe the following installation instructions:
• Install the modules so that as few objects as possible are between them.
Metal objects in particular can hinder radio transmission.
• If possible, install the modules in the vehicle.
The housings are splash-water protected and can be mounted outside the vehicle. In this
case, you need to select a location that is protected against mechanical impacts (e.g. flying
stones).
• The installation location should be flat.
• Before drilling, check each time that there is sufficient space on the other side for the drill head
to emerge (fig. 2, page 4).
• Transmitter module: Make sure you can lay the connection cable to the camera.
• Receiver module: Make sure you can lay the connection cable to the monitor.
