Mounting Requirements

Mounting Requirements - Side Object Detection (SOD)

Side Sensor

The Side Sensor should be mounted on the side of the vehicle, between 22" (558.8mm) and 36" (914.4mm) from the ground and at least
18" (457.2mm) rear of the side view mirror (see diagram below). Typically, the Side Sensor is located on the passenger side of the vehicle,
however, it can also be installed on the driver side of the vehicle.

Note:

To reduce the possibility of the sensor detecting objects mounted to the vehicle like the steps or fuel tanks, make sure the face of the

sensor extends out a minimum of 5/16" (7.9mm) further than any other object within 6" (152.4mm) of the sensor's body.

Failure to mount Side Sensor properly will result in a solid red light indicating a constant detect mode.

This is critical to the correct operation of the VS-400 system.
