6. Finally, hold the test target 12 ft. (4 m) from the center of the vehicle rear,
aiming the target directly at the sensor. Verify the sensor can detect the
target at this location.
Note: The rear sensor display may not illuminate all 5 LEDs for a target 12 ft. (4 m)
away.
For maximum energy refl ection when testing the sensor, keep the face of
the test target aimed directly at the sensor. The pattern below indicates the
sensor’s maximum detection capability and is for testing only. The sensor may
not detect all objects at these angles.
The sensor’s ability to detect depends on the composition of the target at its
ability to refl ect pulse radar energy. The sensor may not detect humans, wood,
or other non-metallic objects within the sensor’s detection zone.
