Only with an antenna-sensor (1.) in
optimum
position on thoroughly
(2.) prepared and (3.)
cleaned surface, and really (4.) tightly fastened, EPS
®
can duly operate!
.
EPS
®
only suits for plastic bumpers (back or front)
.
.
Metal close to antenna can (strongly) reduce the EPS
®
detection range!
.
Magnetic or electro-magnetic fields can disturb the operation of EPS
®
.
1.
First, fix outside
on the bumper a wire (~ 2m) by adhesive tape, connect it as
antenna. (Connect loudspeaker and 12V, too.) Now
test
EPS
®
by approaching
the hands. If you verify proper detection ranges (about 50 cm), the antenna can
be installed in this position. (Otherwise test in another position.)
NOTE
:-
è
Antenna must
cover car's whole width
, and car's corners, too.
è
Antenna must be minimum 40 cm, better
50 cm above road level
.
è
Antenna must be minimum 20 cm, better
30 cm away from the wheels
.
è
Antenna must be
minimum 3 cm far from car's metal parts
.
2. Find an opening (e.g. ventilation) to put the antenna-wire into the car's inside.
a) If the strip covers the bumper up to its
end, the antenna-wire can be laid there
around, by running inside one of the
grooves of a terminal. (See pictures.)
b) If the strip doesn't come up to bumper's end,
drill a small hole into the bumper right there,
where the antenna-wire is welded onto the strip.
By means of a tube-aid (flexible tube or little rod)
thread the antenna-wire into the car's inside.
Now lay the strip against the bumper. Shorten the strip to the length required.
When occasion arises, mark the proper course of the PVC-strip. (See 1. too.)
3.
By using non-aggressive solvent (like alcohol) clean and degrease
thoroughly the bumper's surface
, onto which PVC-strip will be fitted.
4.
NOTE
: When sticking-on, temperature shall not be below 18°C. (Hair dryer ?).
NOTE:
Avoid fitting the PVC strip onto metal parts.
i) Gradually remove the (adhesive part's) paper from the strip, and fit the strip
starting at the end with the welded wire. Complete it with the 2 terminals.
ii) Press down tightly the PVC strip with your hands (and a cloth). 12 hours later
on press it down tightly once more.
NOTE:
Avoid washing your car during the first three days after the installation.

Central unit
to be fastened inside the car in a dry place,
close to the antenna
connection
. Keep plug accessible.
Shorten
antenna
-
wire
to
the
length
required.
Stabilize it (plastic tube). Connect it by flat-
or pinch-connector to the
antenna-flex
(shorten that one, too, and twist together
both leads), and plug it to the central unit.

OFF
either by +12V or by earth:
RED wire to +12V (e.g. reversing lamp, resp. +15), BLACK
to a valid ground
