Legal Information

By law, watching moving pictures while driving is prohibited, the driver must not be

distracted. We do not accept any liability for material damage or personal injury resulting,

directly or indirectly, from installation or operation of this product. This product should only

be used while standing or to display fixed menus or rear-view-camera video when the

vehicle is moving, for example the MP3 menu for DVD upgrades.

Changes/updates of the vehicle’s software can cause malfunctions of the interface. We

offer free software-updates for our interfaces for one year after purchase. To receive a free

update, the interface must be sent in at own cost. Labour cost for and other expenses

involved with the software-updates will not be refunded.

Limitations

Video only The interface inserts ONLY video signals into the infotainment.

For sound use the possibly existing factory audio-AUX-input or a FM-

modulator.

Factory rear-view camera Automatically switching-back from inserted video to factory rear-view

camera is only possible while the reverse gear is engaged. To delay the

switch-back, an additional electronic part is required.

1.2. Checking the compatibility of vehicle and accessories

Version 09.08.2021 HW (V31) CI-RL5-MIB-STD2

1.3. Connectors - Video-interface (daughter PCB)

The video-interface (daughter PCBs) converts the video signals of connected after-market

sources in a factory monitor compatible picture signal which is inserted in the factory

monitor, by using separate trigger options.

2. Installation

Switch off ignition and disconnect the vehicle’s battery! The interface needs a permanent

12V source. If according to factory rules disconnecting the battery is to be avoided, it is

usually sufficient to put the vehicle to “Sleep-Mode”. In case it does not succeed,

disconnect the battery with a resistor lead.

If power source is not taken directly from the battery, the connection has to be checked

for being start-up proven and permanent.

2.1. Place of installation

The daughter PCB shell be connected inside the factory head unit housing and installed by

using the delivered exchange metal frame

2.3. Installation - ribbon cables into the monitor panel

Remove the head-unit, disconnect and remove the DVD drive unit and further disconnect

and remove the frontpanel, which is fixed to the head-unit housing by 6 Torx screws (T9).

Replace the original front panel-retaining plate, which is fixed by 9 Torx screws,

against the enclosed exchange metal frame.

Disconnect the golden coloured 60pin ribbon cable at the front panel mainboard

60pin ribbon cable base and connect it to the 60pin ribbon cable base at the

daughter PCB’s bottom side (heed the following warning notes!).

Connect the daughter PCB’s pre-assembeled 60pin ribbon cable to the previously

become free 60pin ribbon cable base of the mainboard. (heed the following warning

notes!).

Version 09.08.2021 HW (V31) CI-RL5-MIB-STD2

Page8

After the ribbon cable connection, fix the daughtger PCB at the front panel-retaining

plate by using the enclosed screws.

After the daughter PCB’s previously mounted 20pin LVDS cable is lead out from the

housing at a suitable location, reconnect the front panel with its 6 screws to the head

unit’s housing. Avoid cable contusion or cable injury caused by sharp-edged metal.

2.3.1. Warning notes, concerning the installation of ribbon cables

1) The contacting ends of ribbon cables always have to be installed in a straight and precise

180° position to the connector. Each deviation from a perfect contact position will curse

faulty contact and even danger of short circuit

2) The ribbon cable’s contacting side always has to correspond to the contacting side of the

connector, concerning the mounting position.

2.4. Cable connection –daughter PCB

Connect the 8pin interface cable’s 8pin connector and the menu pushbutton cable’s

4pin connector to the 6pin and 4pin connectors of the daughter PCB.

Connect the 6pin interface cable’s single red colored wire to +12V terminal 30

(e.g. glove compartment illumination).

Connect the 6pin interface cable’s single green colored wire to +12V reverse signal

(see following chapter).

Connect the 6pin interface cable’s black wire to vehicle Ground.

2.5. After-market rear-view camera:

To switch the interface’s rear-view camera input, an external switching signal from the

reverse gear light is required. As the reverse gear light signal contains electronic

interference, a traditional open relay (e.g AC-RW-1230 with wiring AC-RS5) or filter (e.g. AC-

PNF-RVC) is required. Below schema shows the use of a relay (normally open).

Connect the single green colored wire and the

rear-view camera’s power both to the relay’s

terminal (87).

Connect the reverse light’s power to the relay’s

coil terminal (85).

Connect permanent power to the relay’s input

terminal (30).

Connect vehicle’s ground to the relay’s coil

terminal (86).
