The 

flat side

 of the sensors must point to the 

back

 of the of the vehicle with the 

curved side to the front. The cables must point 

up

 
The sensors must be installed at a 90-degree angle, perpendicular to the ground. 
The installation angle (

±

θ

) depends on the height of the bumper from the ground.

If the inside of the bumper is uneven, the gap between the sensor and the 
uneven bumper should not be more than 1 mm.  

 

 

The sensors will receive power from the reverse light of the vehicle. Connect the 

power

 (12V) and 

ground

 cables to the power (12V) and 

ground cables of the reverse light. 

 

When installation is complete, the bumper can be re-installed onto the vehicle. No electronic/electric

 

products or equipment that contain metal 

should be between the sensors and the area of detection.

NITIALIZATION

 

To initialize the ARS-SM01, after the installation, clear the area behind the vehicle (1 meter) of any obstructions and press the 

BGC

 

toggle 

switch

. BGC stands for Background Check. The initialization process is as follows: 

x

 

With the vehicle turned on, power the reverse lights by shifting the gear stick/selector (manual/automatic) into the reverse position. 

x

 

Toggle the BGC switch to the on (I) position. 

x

 

Wait until the buzzer makes a sound for longer than 1 second. 

x

 

Toggle the BGC switch to the off (O) position. 

x

 

Wait until the buzzer sound stops (about 3 seconds). 

After the buzzer sound stopped, the initialization process is complete and the ARS-SM01 is ready for use.
