Installation
Mounting the Sensors
The sensors should ideally be equally spaced along the bumper. For best results we recommend that the outer sensors are spaced between 8-13cm from the edge of the bumper. The sensors should then be spaced between 30-40cm from each other as shown in the diagram on the next page.
The sensors should be mounted between 55 and 80cm from the ground to avoid false triggering.
Please pay attention to the lettering on the sensors and t the according to the diagram
opposite.
Thank you for purchasing the AVFRPS1 Parking System.
All Veba Parking Solutions are designed to improve safety during driving by providing high quality audible and/or visual feedback of surrounding areas and obstacles in the vicinity of the vehicle. They also improve vehicle manoeuvring capability by adding coverage blind spots not normally visible to the driver. Please ensure you read and
understand all aspects of this manual before tting or using your Veba Parking System.

Mounting the Sensors
Please note the orientation arrow on the sensors as shown below. This should be pointing up for the sensors to work correctly.
Sensor Orientation
Please also be aware that the sensors should be mounted parallel to the ground or slightly upwards facing. They should under no circumstances be
angled downwards.

Installation
Wiring
Red
Connect both modules to a +12V switched ignition supply.
Black
Connect both modules to ground.
Yellow
Front module not connected, rear module connect to +12V switched reverse wire.
Blue
Rear module not connected, front module connect to switch and connect the other side of the switch to +12V switched ignition supply.
White
Rear module not connected, front module connect to vehicle speed signal. This can often be found at the ABS Sensor, Speedometer or radio module.
Grey
Join both modules together.

The sensors are labelled A,B,C and D for both modules. Please ensure that these are plugged into the corresponding ports on the module. The display will connect to the front module as shown below. The 2-pin plug is not used on either the front or the rear module.
Setting Up
Dip Switches
The dip switches should be set as follows:
Front Module:
Dip switch 1 ON
This determines whether the module is being used as a front or rear module.
Dip switch 2 OFF
This sets the unit to adjust the detection range by 20cm to account for tow bars or spare wheels etc. This function is not active when the module is set to front mode.
Front Module:
Dip switch 1 OFF
This sets the unit up for rear operation.
Dip switch 2
If you have a tow bar or spare wheel mounted to the rear of the car then you may wish to turn this function ON. It will then offset the detection point to 20cm away from the rear bumper. This will allow the tow bar or spare wheel to be ignored and not cause false triggering.
If you do not have any protrusion from the rear of the vehicle then you can leave this switch set to OFF.

Speed Sensor Setting
The front module speed sensor requires calibration before it can work correctly. To accomplish this drive the vehicle at the desired shut off speed and then press and hold the button on the display for 3 seconds and then release. The two arrows on the
display should now ash. If the speed signal has been recognised correctly the display will beep after a few seconds and the all LED’s will light up briey.
Operation
Upon rst powering the system it will perform a self check of all sensors. If any sensors are faulty then the display will ash to show which sensor is malfunctioning. It will do this by each set of 3 LED’s correspond to one sensor so if any group of 3 ash
it means that sensor is faulty. It will also signify whether this is front or rear by use of the arrows on the display. Please see the drawing below for fault detection indicators.
Sensor A Fault
Front Fault Rear Fault
Sensor B Fault Sensor C Fault Sensor D Fault
The unit will switch on automatically when the vehicle is put into reverse. It can also be
switched on manually by briey pressing the power switch.
If no object is detected within 20 seconds then the kit will switch off automatically or it will keep working for 30 seconds after reverse gear is disengaged.

When either the front or rear unit detects an obstruction the display will illuminate and a
beeping will be heard. This beeping can be switched off by briey pressing the button
on the display.
As the obstruction gets closer the frequency of the beeps will increase and more segments will be illuminated on the display. The display will also show which side the object is (left or right) by using that sides corresponding LED’s. Depending on whether the obstruction is at the front or the rear of the vehicle the corresponding arrow will illuminate on the display.
The top arrow signies a front obstruction and the lower one a rear. If an obstruction is
present at both the front and rear of the vehicle then the display will alternate between the two. The approximate distance to the obstruction will also be shown in the middle of the display.
If the vehicle speed exceeds the set limit (in speed setting) then the kit will switch off. You are also not able to manually turn the kit on when above the set speed.
