When reverse gear is disengaged, the rear sensors stop working, but the front sensors will
remain operational for another 10 seconds.
Note:
Rear sensors will never work when the vehicle is moving forward.
Warning mode
•
Following is an overview of the warning zones.
Beware of the blind zones in front of and behind the vehicle! The blind zone in front
of the vehicle is 15cm, behind the vehicle 22cm.
Obstacles located inside these blind zones will NOT be detected!
•
When an obstacle is detected in a warning zone, visual and audible warnings are given on the
display unit.
•
Visual warnings are given by flashing of the display indicator of the sensor(s) that detected the
obstacle, as well as a numeric display of the distance in meter. Distances from the rear sensors
are displayed with large digits, while information from the front sensors is presented in small
digits.
Note:
when an obstacle moves into a blind zone, ‘
-P-
’ is displayed in stead of the distance.
•
Audible warnings are produced by the speaker (
L
) at the back the display unit (
C
). The volume
can be set (3 positions) with the volume switch (
K
) at the back of the display unit.
•
The time interval between the beeps is an indication of the distance to the obstacle. The shorter
the interval, the closer the obstacle. See the table below for an overview.

Note:
for obstacles detected only by sensors 1, 4, 5 or 6, an audible alarm will not be given as long
as those obstacles remain in safety zone. The audible alarm will only sound when the caution
zone is entered for those sensors.
•
When multiple obstacles are detected, the display indicators of the sensors will flash, but only
the distance to the obstacle located inside the highest priority warning zone and the
accompanying audible warnings are given.
E.g. when an obstacle is located at 30 cm in front of the vehicle (caution zone) and another is
located at 40 cm behind the vehicle (danger zone), the distance and audible signal related to
the obstacle behind the vehicle are given.
