Using MWE850

MWE850 is activated automatically when you engage reverse gear with the
ignition on or the motor running.
As soon as there is an obstacle within the detection range, a repeated signal
tone sounds and the green LEDs light up.
As you reverse, the sequence of beeps changes according to the zone you
are in, thus indicating the distance (see "Testing functions" chapter on
page 44). The display also modifies as the zones change.
Be very careful the first time you use the system, until you are familiar with
the various sequences of beeps and the display.
Caution!
Stop the vehicle immediately and check the situation (getting out if
necessary), if the following happens while you are reversing:
The device first shows an obstacle while you reverse, and the
beeps speed up as normal (i.e. from slow to medium). Suddenly
the beeps become slow again or no obstacle at all is shown.
This means that the original obstacle is in the blind spot of the sen-
sors (depending on the design), and you might hit it.
Caution!
If loads or objects on the vehicle (e.g. bicycle racks) protrude over
the close area of 0.3 m, there is a danger of accidents. An obstacle
can collide with the load or the object before it is detected by the
sensors in the close area and MWE850 gives a stop warning (see
fig. 11, page 6).

Do not use sharp or hard objects to clean the device as these may
damage the sensors.
