The image reversing circuit is mounted inside the housing. The circuit reverses
flips the image and words on the LCD screen so that when the image is reflected
in the external mirror, it appears correct left-to-right.
Plug the reversing circuitry into the AV Out port on the camera before securing
the camera to the tray and then slide the camera and tray inside the housing. The
reversing circuit will automatically turn ON when connected to the camera and the
camera is ON; the image and words in the LCD screen will appear in reverse.

An on/off switch is featured on the reversing circuit. Use the reversing circuit
control on the housing to access the on/off switch on the circuit. The circuit will
automatically turn ON when connected to the camera and the camera is ON.
When turning the camera OFF, there is a 5-minute standby power down delay
on the camera that occurs when the reversing circuit is ON during power down.
Therefore to avoid the 5-minute power down delay, turn the camera OFF and also
turn the circuit OFF to power down the camera immediately.

When the reversing circuit is ON, some camera functions may be locked out. To
correct for such a problem, temporarily turn the circuit OFF, change the function on
the camera, and then turn the circuit back ON.
