Installation and Connections • Be sure to disconnect the cable from the (-) battery post before installing your HCE-C300R. This will reduce any chance of damage to the unit in case of a short circuit. • Be sure to connect the colour coded leads according to the diagram. Incorrect connections may cause the unit to malfunction or damage to the vehicle's electrical system. • When making connections to the vehicle's electrical system, be aware of the factory installed components (e.g. on-board computer). Do not tap into these leads to provide power for this unit. When connecting the HCE-C300R to the fuse box, make sure the fuse for the intended circuit of the HCE-C300R has the appropriate amperage. Failure to do so may result in damage to the unit and/or the vehicle. When in doubt, consult your Alpine dealer. • Route the cables and wiring away from hot or moving parts, and fix them securely to avoid heat/mechanical damage to the cable insulation, which may result in shortcircuit, fire or electric shock. • When fixing the control unit, camera, and alarm to the vehicle with screws, attaching to weak spots may damage vehicle parts. • If the camera is not mounted securely, shifting positions will cause deterioration of detection performance. • The cable may break due to stress caused when opening and closing the door/trunk of the vehicle. • If the control unit becomes wet, the electrical circuitry may short out. • Attaching with double stick tape may leave a mark on the vehicle interior. • This camera system is meant to be used as a rear camera. It cannot be used as a front or side camera. • This camera system cannot be used as a corner sensor. • The camera is designed specifically for use with this system. The system cannot be used with a different camera. • This product cannot be installed in or used with anything other than a car (in other words, it cannot be used with motorcycles, mobility vehicles, or electric wheelchairs or as a household security camera, etc.).
