7. Installation
Do NOT put the car in reverse while installing this device !!
a) Installing the Sensors
Attach the included double-sided tape to the sensors and attach the sensors to the body of your
vehicle. The double-sided tape is very flexible and will follow the natural lines of your car (fig. 5).
Note that the part of the cables that runs along the outside of the body of your car should be
firmly fixed (fig. 7). Mount the sensors vertically at a height of 55cm to 70cm (fig. 6) on the most
protrusive part of the back of your vehicle
but not on the bumper
. Mounting the sensors too
low will cause them to "detect" the road surface; small objects will go undetected if the sensors
are mounted too high. Do not place the sensors more than ± 90cm or 3 feet apart.
