6.1 Sensor Installation:

The radar sensor mounting location is important for proper installation. Ideally, the sensor should be mounted on the rear center of the 

vehicle at roughly 3ft +/- 0.1ft (1m +/- 0.03m) above the ground and angled up 5° using the Silicone Pad. The sensor can be adjusted 

horizontally with the mounting bracket.

(When mounted higher than 3ft/1m

IMPORTANT!

Before the Radar Detection System is permanently installed to the vehicle, verify that the sensor mounting location provides a 

clear detection zone.  Temporarily attach the sensor in the proposed mounting location, apply power to the system and verify that 

nothing is being detected (ex: rear of the vehicle).
