EDGES ARE SHARP!!!
Determining Sensor Position: Measure Twice, Cut Once!
Inspect behind the bumper in the approximate mounting area to check for any
possible obstructions.
A proper installation will take into consideration two factors:
(1) Placement:
height and distance either side of bumper center.
(2) Angle:
accurate detection depends on the correct sensor angle.
The sensors need a 1” clearance space behind the bumper to be completely inserted.
Some bumpers have an outside cover or fascia and a metal backing. You may have to
drill through both layers to ensure you have enough clearance in order to fit the
sensors. Other bumpers require some removal of foam backing.
CAUTION: Be careful of hot engine parts and/or sharp edges under bumper.
DO NOT INSTALL SENSORS ABOVE EXHAUST PIPE.
Doing so may cause false alerts.
