Replacing/Removing The Bosch Parking Lot Sensor - Bosch PLS User Manual

Parking Lot Sensor | PLS
The sensor can be screwed into the base after the adhesive has cured. To simplify insertion, the arrow on the bottom
of the sensor points towards the Bosch logo (see Figure 14 Installing/screwing in the sensor). After inserting the
sensor, it will take approx. 2 minutes until the first measurements are carried out. During this time, the sensor should
be completely screwed in to ensure optimum teaching of the sensor. To tighten it, use the T20 screw and a
T20 screwdriver and tightening torque with at least 1.4 Nm up to a maximum of 1.8 Nm. And then close the opening
with the sensor sealing cap.
Figure 14 Installing/screwing in the sensor
After the installation of the sensor, the sensor learns about parking changes, which happens in its vicinity. After
approx. 10 parking changes, the sensor is in its taught-in state.
INFORMATION:
During operation, a continuous automatic calibration of the parking lot sensor takes place through "parking"
and "exiting parking space'' events.

2.4 Replacing/removing the BOSCH Parking Lot Sensor

To replace the parking lot sensor, only the sensor needs to be replaced. To do this, remove the sensor cap and loosen
the T20 screw; then remove the sensor from the sensor base.
INFORMATION:
A battery replacement is not intended; instead, the sensor must be replaced.
To completely remove the sensor base from the parking space, it is necessary to use a hammer and chisel to destroy
the adhesive effect by chiseling the sensor base parallel to the parking space surface. As a result, there is no
permanent damage to the parking space.
