Precautions

Thank you for choosing our millimeter-wave blind spot monitoring system. This system is mainly composed of two millimeter-wave radar sensors, left and right alarm light buzzers, and a radar control box. It is a high-end blind spot monitoring and lane-changing auxiliary system. The product can simultaneously complete the distance and speed measurement of multiple targets behind the vehicle, and transmit it to the radar control box wirelessly. After that, the radar control box sends out an audible and visual alarm to remind the driver.

There is a certain blind spot in the vehicle rearview mirror angle of view, which brings safety hazards to driving, especially in bad weather, like snow or rain. Equipped with this millimeter wave blind spot monitoring system, once moving objects detected on both sides of the vehicle that approach the blind spot, a warning signal will be transmitted to the radar control box with alarm light flashing and beeping, which greatly reduce accident.

This product is easy to install and wiring-free. Magnetic bracket is supported for vehicles with metal surface (thicker than 1 mm). For other vehicles with plastic, glass fiber or aluminum alloy body surface, we provide adhesive metal plate, which can be used together with magnetic bracket.

Sincerely thank you for choosing our product, we wish you a pleasant journey!

IMPORTANT TIPS

Special vehicle conditions that should be considered
If the vehicle is driven before a GPS connection is established or if the GPS connection is interrupted (inside a tunnel, parking structure, etc), the system may not function properly, producing incorrect or false warnings or falling to produce a warning. Once the GPS connection is established or re- established, GPS indicator will flash.

The following may compromise the effectiveness of the system:

• Incorrect installation angle.
• Vehicle with metal obstruction in front of the sensor.
• Improper sensor mounting location on vehicle, ie. center of the vehicle bumper.

Situations that may affect system detection accuracy:

• Metal objects are in the direct path of the sensing signal.
• Weather such as heavy rain, snow, or icy road may cause changes in sensitivity.
• Gravel roads, which may cause interference due to dust and flying stones.
