General Information
Side Sensor Display (optional system component)
The side sensor display contains red and yellow indicator lights. The yellow indicator light is on when there is no object
within the side sensor detection zone. When the side sensor detects an object, the red indicator light illuminates and the
yellow indicator light goes off. The side sensor display is usually mounted on the inside of the vehicle, in easy view by
the driver, and usually along the same line of sight as the mirror.
Side Sensor (optional system component)
A side sensor is a radar device that senses objects from 1 to 12 feet from the side of the vehicle. Side sensors are gen-
erally mounted at or near a blind spot.
Central Processing Unit (CPU)
The Central Processing Unit processes information from the antenna assembly, engine-control unit, speedometer,
optional side sensors, brake and turn signal circuits to produce audible and visual warnings.
Driver Display
The Driver Display shows power-up conformation, speaker volume, range for vehicle warnings, and following distance
for SmartCruise®.
Wiring Harness (not shown)
The main wiring harness connects all of the external inputs and the VORAD system components. A secondary wire har-
ness is supplied with the optional side sensors, to facilitate connection to the main system.
