b) Mounting of the Electronic Unit
The electronic unit should be installed in the boot near a reversing headlight.
Observe that the sensor cables must be long enough for the mounting location of the control
unit. Also observe that the cable for the voltage supply (red/black cable) must reach from the
mounting location of the control unit to the connection line of the reversing headlight.
A good mounting location is, e.g., a side wall of the boot.
Proceed as follows:
• Attach the electronic unit to the intended mounting location with the enclosed adhesive pad. The adhe-
sion location must be level and perfectly clean, free of dust and grease. Do not use the glue below 5 °C,
because this would not lead to reliable bonding.
Do not put any stress on the bond before approx. 12 hours have passed. Wait until the glue reaches its
final adhesive power.
• Alternatively, the electronic unit can also be attached to the housing with the two attachment bores (e.g.
to present screws in the boot).
• Route the connection lines of the sensors from the previously drilled hole to the control unit. Place the
lines with care; fasten them, e.g., with cable ties.
• Finally set the distance that the sensors in the license plate holder are from the ground. For this, the
control unit has a three-level switch. Depending on height, set the switch to 1, 2 or 3.
Level 1: 35 - 40 cm
Level 2: 40 - 60 cm
Level 3: 60 - 80 cm
