AVS PARKING SENSORS – INSTALL GUIDE
MODELS COVERED BY THIS GUIDE: RS4F, RS4R, RS8B, RS8D
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing an AVS parking sensor system.
This system is designed to be installed by a professional installer with the appropriate qualifications, experience and
tools and is not suitable for DIY installation.
The AVS parking sensor system is suitable for vehicles with a 12VDC power system.
Sensors can be painted prior to installation, we recommend using PLASTIC ADHESION PROMOTER before ACRYLIC
colour and clear coats. Do not allow paint to run into the ring/gap on the sensor head as this may significantly effect
sensitivity.
SENSOR PLACEMENT
1. Sensors must be installed on the outermost points on the front and/or rear of the vehicle. Vehicle parts which
extend further than the sensor position (e.g. bull bars & towbars) may cause false triggers. Position sensors
accordingly.
2. The sensors must be installed at a height of between 40cm and 60cm from the ground.
3. The surface chosen must be vertical and flat (avoid uneven areas).
STEP 1 – FITTING THE SENSORS
1. Measure the width of the vehicle and divide by 8.
th
2. Measure 1/8 from each side and mark location using a marker.
3. Measure from both marks in 2/8
4. Use included hole saw to drill holes at each mark.
5. Fit the sensors (note the orientation on the back of the sensor U­P) and run the sensor cables to the control
module.
