SENSORS INSTALLATION:
CONNECTION DIAGRAM:
INSTALLATION AND TEST:
- After the installation of sensors, adjust the axis and the direction, the arrange the wires in good order
- Connect the power wire of the control box with the reversing light correctly
- Connect the digital display to the control box
- Put the shift lever to reverse gear; the radix point in the display should be lighted, it indicates the system is under detection status
Test:
a. If the display shows nothing, please check the polarity and the power
voltage (>10.5V). Check the display connection, too.
b. If the displayed distance is wrong or 0.0 is shown or a long beep can be
heard, please unplug the system and try again to insert the gear lever in the
reversing mode. If the problem persists, the main unit might be defective.
c. When testing the sensors, if the display emits a continuous tone or
displays 0.0, please check if some parts of the car or other objects are
within the range of the sensors if the sensor is inadequately mounted or the
sensor is under the influence of strong sources of interference (such as
exhaust pipes, other wires)
d. If a number is shown on the display but there is no obstacle in front of
the sensors, please check the position and direction of the sensors. The
sensors must be mounted horizontally. If they are mistakenly mounted, the
sensors can detect the registration number, the spare wheel, or the rear
spoiler.
e. If the problems can not be solved after the tests, the sensors can be
considered defective or do not match the control unit. The whole system should
be replaced.
f. For security reasons, the display will only show 0.0, instead of 0.3-0.1,
when it detects something within 0.00.4 m depending on the software. In this
situation, the driver must stop immediately. When the distance is 0.5m, the
alarm sound will sound and it will last for 1 second. Please be careful during
maneuvers.
NOTES:
- Be aware of the size of the sensor mounting hole
- During the installation of the system, the engine of the car must be switched off
- System performance can be altered in the following cases: heavy rain, paved road, uneven road, vegetation, extremely hot weather, wet or cold, snow, mud or ice on sensors
- System operation may be affected by the presence of other ultrasonic waves, such as a 24 / 12V converter
- The sensors should not be mounted too tightly or too lightly
- The metal bumper can affect the performance of the system
- Do not position the control unit near the exhaust pipe or other wires
- Test the system to make sure it works properly
- This system is designed to assist the driver in parking. The manufacturer does not take responsibility for accidents after installation.
We recommend installing the system at an authorized service center.
