PARKING TONES ACTIVATION
Once the CTSBM009.2 has been installed, the retention of parking/warning tones
should be ON as default. If not, you will need to activate the parking tones.
With the ignition on and the vehicle stationary, proceed to do the following
sequence:
Right Indicator ON > Left Indicator ON > Right Indicator ON > Left
Indicator ON
Please note: this sequence must be done within 2.5 seconds.
When done successfully, a single ‘beep’ will be heard from the speaker box.
Test the parking sensor functionality to see if successful. To de-activate the
parking tones, repeat the process and another single ‘beep’ will signify tones
are turned off.

Before installing the interface, the factory stereo must be removed and
disconnected. To do this, please consult the vehicle owner’s manual/handbook
or contact a fitting professional.
A stereo connection (patch) lead is also required for the installation of this
interface (supplied seperately). Please ensure that you have the correct lead
before proceeding. For universal patch leads, prepare the wiring loops in
accordance with the instruction manual supplied with the product before
installation.
-
Connect the 12-pin connector from the stereo connection (patch) lead to the swc interface box
-
Connect the opposite end of the stereo connection (patch) lead to the steering wheel control input on the back of the aftermarket stereo
