Operation Testing

Testing System Operation

1. Before testing the system, move the vehicle to an area where there are no

objects within a minimum of a 15-foot radius of the sensor.

2. Turn the vehicle's ignition to the on position (do not start vehicle).

WARNING

!

Observe proper safety procedures by making sure the vehicle's parking brakes are
set and the engine is off before performing any tests.

3. Observe the side sensor display unit's red and yellow indicators and refer to

the table below for proper power-up and system operation. Have an assistant
walk within ten feet of the front of the sensor to test for object detection.

4. To test the audible warning, activate the turn signal while testing the object

detection. The warning tone is only heard once for each activation of the turn
signal.

5. If the red and yellow LEDs remain on continuously for more than fi ve

seconds after the initial power-up, this is an indication the system has
detected a failure. Refer to the troubleshooting section for more information.
