Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Sentinel 5”Black & WhiteRearView Monitor.
This system promotes and prevents backing-up and parking accidents, by
allowing you to view or check on the traffic behind your vehicle, or when rounding
corners (blind spot prevention).
This monitor is suitable for waste trucks, RV campers, vans & cars and should
be used in combination with the SentinelRearView cameras. An added benefit of
this monitor is compatibility with the Sentinel Electric Shutter camera, which has
a motorized visor to protect the camera’s lens when it’s not in use.
