Testing and Maintenance
NOTE: A walk around test shall be performed every day to verify proper function
of the system and to familiarize the operator with the zone of detection. More
frequent inspections should be performed when:
The vehicle is operating in a particularly dirty or harsh environment.
The operator has reason to suspect the system has been damaged.
This test should be performed with two people, one who remains in the cab (the
operator), and one who walks through the sensor field at the rear of the vehicle
(the assistant).
1. Clean the sensor face of any accumulation of dirt, mud, snow, ice, or debris.
2. Visually inspect the attached wiring and cable and verify that they are
properly secured, not chafing or dangling free where they could become
snagged and damaged. Inspect the Radar Sensor and Operator Display
Module and verify that they are securely attached to the vehicle.
3. Set the park brakes, start the vehicle, depress and hold the vehicle brake
and place the vehicle in reverse.
4. Verify the green “POWER” light is illuminated on the in-cab display.
5. The area to the rear of the vehicle should be clear of obstacles for a distance
of 8 meters. If the display shows any indicator other than the green light
