Electric Connection - Renkforce SB-E17 Notice D'emploi

8. Electric Connection

• The electrical connection must be made by a specialist.
• To avoid short circuits and resulting damage to the product, the minus pole (earth) of the vehic-
le battery must be disconnected during connection.
Only connect the negative pole of the vehicle battery when you have completely connected the
device and checked the connections.
• Observe the notes of the vehicle manufacturer to prevent loss of the stored vehicle data (time,
radio stations, etc.). If your car radio or GPS has a code (see operating instructions) keep this
code at hand for later input.
• You should only use a voltmeter or a diode test lamp for checking the voltage of the on-board
cables, as normal test lamps consume excessive currents and can thus damage the electro-
nics system of the car.
After installation of all components, you need to connect the plugs and voltage supply.
Create all plug connections as displayed in the following figure. The plugs only fit the corresponding so-
ckets in the correct polarity.
• Connect the three plugs of the ultrasound sensors („B", „C" and „D") to the electronic unit's sockets B,
C and D in the proper order. Observe the correct assignment of the letters at the lines and plug sockets.
• Connect the plug of the display unit to the „DISP" socket at the electronic unit.
• Since the parking system must only work when the reverse gear is engaged, the system is fed by the
reversing headlight. Measure the correct line with the reverse gear engaged and the ignition on with a
volt meter or a diode test lamp. The light and direction indicators must be off.
• Once you have found the right, live line, switch off the ignition again.
Connect the red plus line of the cable for the voltage supply to the voltage supply line (+) from the re-
versing headlight. Ensure permanent insulation at the contact point (e.g. insulated crushing connector,
insulation tape, etc.).
