Function Specification

The Precision Park 5000 system consists of four ultrasonic sensors,
one control unit, one wiring harness and one display/speaker.

The sensors operate both as transmitters and as receivers, which send
an ultra high frequency sound wave (sonar) that is reflected off an
object and received. The distance from the obstacle is evaluated through
the transit time of the signals and is indicated by a sequence of pulse
tones, the closer the obstacle, the faster the sequence of pulse tones.
The distance to the obstacle and obstacle location are communicated
to the driver via a 5 color LED display.

The sensors mount into or attach to the rear bumper. The control
module mounts beneath the vehicle with the display mounted to the
dash in view of the driver.

Safety Precautions

Warning!

Safety precaution: Failure to observe the instructions could damage
the device and impair its function as well as cause injury due to
electrical current.

Warning!

Due to the risk of short circuit, always disconnect the negative pole
of the battery before starting work. Disconnecting the negative pole
of the battery may result in loss of system memory and may need to
be reset.

Warning!

Precision Park is intended as a parking aid. Due to the nature of the
system, some obstacles may not be detected or may be identified
inaccurately due to physical reflection properties. The system does
not relieve the driver of their responsibility to exercise caution when
reversing and to obey the safety rules and regulations given by the
vehicle manufacturer.
