l
Vehicle shapes which do not reflect radar waves well such as empty trailers with a low vehicle
height and sports cars.
l
Vehicles are shipped with the direction of the radar sensors (rear) adjusted for each vehicle to a
loaded vehicle condition so that the radar sensors (rear) detect approaching vehicles correctly. If
the direction of the radar sensors (rear) has deviated for some reason, have the vehicle inspected

installed to the rear of the vehicle. Otherwise, the radio waves emitted by the radar will be
blocked causing the system to not operate normally.

The radar sensors are regulated by the relevant radio wave laws of the country in which the
vehicle is driven. If the vehicle is driven abroad, authorization from the country in which the
vehicle is driven may be required.
