Use common sense when reversing and always follow recommended safe driving guidelines.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 1.0 a) The installation of the antenna sensor, constituted by an aluminium adhesive ribbon, must be performed to the inside of the bumper. It is of some importance that the zone of application on the inside surface of the bumper corresponds to the higher part as regards the ground but also the most distant from the car body. It is not advisable to install the antenna sensor too low. Correct zone Fig. 1 b) Disassemble the bumper. Pag.
2. STARTING PROCEDURE a) Identify on the car body the zone close to the extremity of the bumper and, on the side where it is present the back-gear lamp, a possible hole of passage toward the interns of the trunk in order to carry out the connections cable from the electronic unit. b) Through the individuated passages route the connections cable inside the trunk leaving the ECU outside. (Fig. 2) Central module + harness Fig. 2 Pag.
3.0 MOUNTING THE ECU AND ANTENNA SENSOR Thoroughly clean with alcohol or nitro solvent (be carefull not to use antiadhesive detergent) the inner surface of the bumper of the zone previously identified (see Fig.1) on which will be applied the antenna sensor and the central unit. Starting from the zone where the central unit + harness will be fixed, start applying the adhesive aluminum tape (antenna sensor) practicing a good pressure to make it well adhere to the inner surface of the bumper *.
When the antenna sensor has been attached, covering the whole of the bumper from left to right, the excess length is cut off. Place a piece of the included sticking material at either ends of the antenna sensor to ensure a secure fixing onto the bumper. Its recommended (but not essential) to cover the antenna with a black anti-rust protection paint that is applied to the underneath of a car chassis or similar to protect from the elements (do not use silicon paste).
Connect the small fastoned cable of the ECU to the antenna sensor. Apply a piece of sticking material on the unit and place it on the bumper by a strong pressure (If the ambient temperature is below 10 °C we recommend heating both the mastic and the sticking area on the bummper). It is advisable to use the same material to cover and block the connections (Fig. 5). Replace the bumper and pull the wiring inside the luggage compartment or engine compartment in order not to leave excess cable outside.
4.0 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS A) Connect both black and white wires of the harness to the negative pole of the battery or if not possible to a good electrical ground. b) Using a normal electrical wire prolong the red wireof the harness bringing it inside the car in order to connect it, through a switch or, if present, a free activation push-button on the dashboard , to a 12 Volt subkey (the system is so activated pressing the button).
Summary of connections: Red: +12 V Copper shield: negative (ground) Black: ground Yellow: to the ground for high sensitivity White: not connected 6. FINAL TESTING PROCEDURE a) Turn on the key and insert the back gear. In a fraction of second the electronic unit performs a complete control of the system and, if everything is correct, the speaker makes a sound of "OK” constituted by one single tone and the lighting of the red logo (car picture). Once obtained this signal the system becomes operational.
A first and a second red light (indicating risk of contact) will come at few centimeters from the bumper toghether with a more frequent Beeping. WARNING: For a correct simulation be carefull to reset the system every time you approach. c) If the system shows to work regularly it is possible to fix definitely the bumper.
USER MANUAL 1.OPERATING PRINCIPLE EPS-DUAL WBD is an innovative parking sensor that uses low energy electromagnetic waves and is able to detect the approach of any kind of obstacle . The activation of the device isobteined by the insertion of the back gear or by pressing the activation button (if installed on front bumper) and confirmed by a signal of “OK". Once activated, the EPSDUAL WBD generates around the bumper, on which is installed, a protection zone (Fig. 6).
1) Two green led in sequence toghether with the first "Beeps" inform the driver that an obstacle is approaching (alert). 2) Three yellow led in sequence and intermittent sounds of faster repetition rate when the obstacle comes close to the bumper at a distance between 15 and 30 cm measured on the middle of bumper (alarm). 3) Two red leds and fast intermittent sounds (risk of contact) when an obstacle is very close to the bumper (10-15 cm).
2. As soon as the system is activated an acknowledgement of the surrounding of the bumper is made. Consequently it is very important, during testing operation, not to switch on the system while you are very close to the central unit and antenna sensor in order not to have false information on the working capability of the system.
