The symbolis usually used with a signal word (e.g., WARNING) which designates the degree or level of hazardseriousness.The signal word WARNING indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result indeath or serious injury.The signal word NOTICE indicates a situation which can cause damage to the product, otherpersonal property and/or to the environment, or cause the product to operate improperly.The combination of the safety alert symbol and signal word is used in safety messages throughoutthis manual and on safety labels on this product. All safety messages that follow have WARNING level hazards. Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.Wireless Parking Sensor SafetyWhen installing the Wireless Parking Sensor, the vehicle must be turned off with the vehicle in parkand the park brake applied.Do not attempt to install the Wireless Parking Sensor while the engine is operating.Do not modify the wiring in any way.Only install the Wireles Parking Sensor to a 12-volt DC system. Connecting to anything other than a 12-volt DC system may damage the Sensor components or the vehicle electrical system.If you are not confident working with 12-volt DC vehicle wiring, have the Wireless Parking Sensorprofessionally installed.This device as well as other wireless devices may be subject to interference. Interference may becaused by cell phones, Bluetooth headsets, Wi-Fi routers, power lines and other various electricalequipment.Keep all power cords and wires away from the vehicle’s mechanical controls.Do not install the Wireless Parking Sensor to the front of your vehicle.Do not use in a vehicle which has an alarm or horn when driving in reverse.Do not paint or spray the sensors.INTRODUCTIONThe Wireless Parking Sensor is an automatic object warning system, used when backing up a vehicle.Information about the clearance between the vehicle and an object is displayed on the receiver inside the vehicle.When the vehicle is driven in reverse, the rear sensors mounted on the license plate transmit a signal. If the signal detects an object, it sends a signal to the controller. These signals are analyzedby the controller’s microprocessor. When the system reads ultrasonic signals that shows the obstacle is moving from one detection zone to another, it activated automatically with a three seconds RF signalThis sends a signal to the receiver which identifies the clearance between the rear of the vehicle and the object. The distance is indicated with tones and LED indicators on the receiver.2

POWERPOWERRIGHTLEFTINSTALLATION Some states or local governments may have regulations or laws that restrict theuse of anything that might impair the clear view of a license plate. Check local laws forcompliance.For the Parking Sensor to be properly installed, it must be wired into the vehicle’staillight harness. If you are not comfortable or knowledgeable with 12-volt DC wiring, have thesystem professionally installed. 1. Remove the screws that hold the license plate to the vehicle.2. Position the left and right sensor mounting plates behind the license plate.3. Insert the screws through the license plate and the sensor mounting plates.4. Install the screws to secure the sensors to the vehicle.1+234763598Legend1. Controller2. Positive (+) Wire from Reverse Light3. Wire Connector4. Reverse Light5. Negative (-) Wire from Reverse Light6.

5. Determine which are the positive (+) and negative (-) wires for the reverse lights on the vehicle.You can use either the right- or left-side reverse light wires. For help locating the vehicle’sreverse light circuit, contact your vehicle’s manufacturer for vehicle-specific wiring diagrams.6. Remove the vehicle’s negative (-) battery cable.21Legend1. Wire from Vehicle2. Wire from Controller 7. Once the proper wires for the reverse lights have been determined, the controller wires mustbe spliced into the vehicle wires using the supplied wire connectors. If you choose to wire the controller using a different method, you must be knowledgeable in 12-volt DC electrical practices.8. The red positive (+) wire from the controller splices into the positive (+) wire from the reverselights and the black negative (-) wire from the controller splices into the negative (-) wire from the reverse lights.9. Position the connector around the vehicle wire you are splicing into.10. Slide the appropriate wire from the controller into the connector.11. Crimp the metal clamp using a pliers to ensure a good connection and then close the lock of the wire connector. Do this for both the positive (+) and negative (-) wires from the reverse light. 12. Decide on a suitable mounting position for the controller and mount it using the screws from the hardware bag or the adhesive-backed mounting pad. It must be mounted in an area where the wires from the sensors can be plugged into it. 13. Reconnect the vehicle’s negative (-) battery cable.14. Plug the controller power wire plug and the left and right sensor plugs into the controller.15. Find a suitable mounting position inside the vehicle for the receiver where it can be easily seen and heard, but not in a position where it can obstruct your vision when driving.16. Use the adhesive-backed mounting pad to secure it to the desired mounting position. The angle of the receiver can be adjusted by loosening the screw on the back and tilting the receiver.17. The receiver can be powered using the receiver cigarette lighter/accesory socket power cord or the receiver power cord. If you are going to hard wire it using the receiver power cord, you mustfind a switched positive (+) and negative (-) wire from the vehicle wire harness.18. Plug the receiver power cord into the power port of the receiver.19. If using the receiver cigarette lighter/accesory socket power cord, plug it into a 12-volt DC powerport.20. Route and secure all wires as needed. 21. When using the system for the first time, the controller and receiver must recognize each other.22. Turn the power switch for the receiver to the ON position. The green power LED on the receiverwill light. 23. With park brake still applied, turn the vehicle ignition switch to the ON position only. Do not startthe vehicle.24. Shift the vehicle to reverse to power the controller.OFFON25. Using a small piece of wire or paper clip, push the learn button on the back of the receiver.26. When a mutual frequency has been found, the receiver will beep twice. If the frequency is not found, a long beep will sound. If this happens, switch the receiver off and back on and push the learn button again to repeat the procedure. If a problem still persists, check the system installation.5
OPERATION1. While driving in reverse, a beep will sound and a green LED will light up when an object is 5 feet(1.5 m) away. If the object is more than 5 feet (1.5 m) away, there will be no sound and the LEDwill not light up.2. As you get closer to an object, the beeping speed will increase and additional LED lights will light up.When all LEDs are lit and the alarm is a constant sound, stop the vehicleimmediately. Continuing in reverse may damage vehicle or wireless parking sensors.3. When you are 1.3 feet (0.4 m) or closer, both green, both yellow and the red LEDs will light and the beep will be a constant sound. 4. The volume can be adjusted using the volume control dial on the receiver.Distance Alarm LED Lights over 5 ft (1.5 m) No beep No LEDs illuminate 4.9-3.9 ft (1.5-1.2 m) sBEEP Green LED illuminates 3.9-3.2 ft (1.2-1.0 m) ssBEEP Green LED illuminates 3.2-2 ft (1.0-0.6 m) sssBEEP Yellow LED illuminates 2-1.3 ft (0.6-0.4 m) ssssBEEP Yellow LED illuminates under 1.3 ft (0.4 m) Constant sound All LEDs illuminate CARE AND MAINTENANCE StorageStore this Wireless Parking Sensor in a cool, dry area and keep it away from direct sunlight, heat, excessivehumidity and dampness.CleaningDo not clean or wipe the Wireless Parking Sensor with solvents or chemical materials.
