Please therefore observe the following instructions:
Wherever possible, lay cables inside the vehicle, as they are better pro-
tected there than outside.
If you do need to lay a cable outside the vehicle, ensure that it is well fas-
tened (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, heater etc.). Use corrugated piping or
other protective materials to protect against mechanical wear.
Wrap the insulating tape supplied around the plug connections of the con-
necting cables and every connection on a cable (including inside the ve-
hicle) to protect from penetrating water (fig. c B, page 7).
When laying the cables, make sure:
– They are not kinked or twisted
– They do not rub on edges
– They are not laid through sharp-edged ducts without protection
(fig. 3, page 4).
Attach the cables securely in the vehicles to prevent tripping hazards. Use
cable binders, insulating tape or glue the cables in place.
Protect every through-hole made in the bodywork against water penetra-
tion, e.g. by using a cable with a sealant and by spraying the cable and
the the cable sleeve with sealant.
Note
I
Only start sealing through-holes when you have completed all in-
stallation work on the camera and have laid the required cable
lengths.
