Installing the display
The core of the parking aid is the acoustic or optic display with integrated warning buzzer.
The displays are attached on the installed adhesive pad. For this purpose, pull the protective
paper off the pad.
When selecting the installation site, make sure that the display is not in the direct
visibility range of the driver or in safety-relevant areas (airbags, etc.).
The surface to which it is attached must be absolutely clean and grease-free. Do not
attach the pad below 5 °C, otherwise the pad will not stick properly.
c) Connection
After installation of all components, you have to connect the display cables and the voltage
supply.
Connect all cables as depicted in the connection scheme in “Individual part names”. The plugs
only fit in the socket with the correct polarity.
•
Connect the plug of the connection cables (3 or 4) with the socket “DISP” on the control
unit
(1)
.
•
Connect the four plugs of the ultrasound sensors (A to D) in the right sequence with the
sockets “A,B,C,D” of the control unit
(1)
. Make sure that the letters on the cables and sockets
are in the right sequence.
After you have made almost all connections, you have to connect the voltage supply.
As the parking aid only works when the reverse gear is shifted, it is supplied by the taillights.
Measure the correct cable with a voltmeter or a diode test lamp when the reverse gear is set
and the ignition is on. The lights and the blinkers should be off. If you were able to determine the
right cable, turn the ignition off again.
Connect the red plus cable
(5)
with the voltage supply cable of the headlight. Make sure that the
contact place is permanently insulated (e.g. insulated clamps, tape, etc.).
With an optional cable cutting connector, you can easily establish safe contact without
severing the light cable.
For this purpose, place the cable cutting connector around the voltage cable of the
headlight and additionally the red conductor of the connection cable
(5)
into the
connector. Use pliers to press the contact point onto the cables.
