Installation Instructions Curb Alert PRO
Preparation:
1) Identify and familiarize yourself with all components of kit
• A: Proximity Sensor
• B: Buzzer with built-in Power Off-Lo-Hi switch
• C: Main Module with built-in Program Switch
• D: Accessory pack including Top Mount Bracket as well as cable ties, mount tabs and Allen wrench
• NOTE: Do NOT discard box as it will be used during calibration of system at final steps.
Installation:
2) Find an appropriate place to mount all components
• The Proximity sensor MUST be mounted as close as possible to the center of the front of the vehicle
with a clear line of sight to the curb (it is an IR sensor and so it CANNOT be mounted behind the
license plate, any panel and or object that will obstruct its view).
Note: the sensor must be placed where it will not be easily struck or damaged by road debris or so low
that it will be damaged during entry or exit out of driveways.
• The Buzzer must be accessible to the vehicle owner in order to allow operation of the built-in Power
switch.
• The Main Module must be mounted in the cabin area where it will be easy to program for proper
operation once installed (the program switch will NOT be used by customer once installation and
proper programming is done and so it can be hidden out of sight).
3) Installing hardware:
• Clean the mounting surface where the sensor will be adhered using a clean cloth and a cleaning
solution or alcohol. \\Make sure not to leave any residue on the surface (do NOT tighten Allen screw
completely as the sensor will be adjusted later during programming).
• Route the sensor harness through the firewall into cabin area making sure to stay away from any
moving parts and away from extreme temperature engine components.
• Mount the Buzzer by first cleaning the surface with either a cleaning solution or alcohol.
• Mount the Main Module using the supplied cable ties making sure not to obstruct any objects such as
the steering column and or foot petals under the steering column area (make sure that nothing will
accidentally press the Program switch as this will de-calibrate the unit).
• Connect the buzzer as well as the sensor connector to the module, leave about a 1/8 th of an inch of
slack. Use a cable tie to secure them to the power cable (this will insure that the connections will not
come lose while vehicle is in normal operation).
4) Power connection:
• Connect the BLACK wire of the power harness to a good solid ground (it is recommended to trim
cable to appropriate length).
