Side Sensor Installation
Install the side sensor where it provides maximum coverage of the driver's most vulnerable blind spot. The blind spot
should be determined manually. Have an assistant walk from the front to the rear of the vehicle and mark on the ground
where the driver loses sight of the assistant and then regains sight of the assistant as he or she continues to the rear of
the vehicle. When the front and rear limits of the blind spot have been established, place the side sensor on the vehicle
in the approximate middle of the front and rear limits.
For most vehicles, the primary blind spot is on the right side, behind the passenger door. Additional side sensors can be
located on the right or on the left side of the vehicle. See the following illustration
for suggested placement.
Other blind spot may exist; these are ONLY suggested locations for your side sensor.
If the sensor is mounted in a high splash/debris area such as a wheel well, a shield should be place over the sensor
for protection.
The side sensor should be mounted on the most outer section of the vehicle body, side fairing or step.
