FAQs

- My car has a steel reinforcing bar inside the bumper; can it cause a malfunction of the system?

Any metal bar can only reduce the detection distance  if it is close the antenna sensor (less than 2 cm).

- How long is the antenna sensor?

The antenna sensor  is an  adhesive tape 3.50 m long and 1 cm high.

- How can I apply the antenna sensor on an irregular bumper?

During the antenna sensor installation it is possible to make curves and fold the tape without compromising the working capability of the system.

- To install the antenna sensor it is necessary to remove  the bumper?

The antenna sensor must be applied to the inner surface of the bumper and then to install it you must dismantle the bumper.

- Can the EPS system  detect any type of obstacle or there are materials that cannot be detected?

The EPS parking sensors are able to detect almost any kind of obstacle even with the most varied forms.
The only material which can be less detected is the pure ceramic and glass if not containing contaminating particles.

- The towing hook can disturb the signal?

No because the system only detects objects approaching to the antenna sensor.

- What are the advantages over ultrasonic sensors?

Invisible from the outside.

The parking sensor EPS ® protects the bumpers on its entire length without discontinuity points.

Capability to approach the obstacle up to  few centimetres while the ultrasonic system is unable to distinguish  distances  below 30 cm.

- It 's possible to cut the antenna sensor?

After you apply the sensor antenna the excess can be cut off.

- It 's a simple  or you better have them mounted by a car garage?

To install the parking sensors  EPS the more  work is the dismantling of the bumper. The electrical connections are very simple.

- It 's possible to mount the kit on cars with automatic gears?

Yes, there are no problems.
