Before installation
DashVue safety check
The product listing excludes some vehicles and wireless-only CarPlay systems. Verify the exact head unit and storage requirements before purchase.
Use the camera as a viewing aid only. Install the child restraint first and keep mounts, cables and screens clear of the harness, belt path, lower anchors, tethers, airbags, controls and the child's reach.
