(operates normally after cleaned)
- When receiving other ultrasonic signals
(metal sound or air braking noises from heavy commercial vehicles)
- When a high-power radio is turned on
3.
Narrowed sensing area
- When the sensing portion is partially covered by snow or mud
(operates normally after cleaned)
- Surrounding temperature of sensor is too high (approx. over 80 °C)
(approx. below -30 °C)
4.
Not defective but may occur improper working
- When driving on the rough roads, gravel road, hill and grass
