CAUTION! Secure the parts of the parking aid installed in the vehicle in such a way that they cannot become loose under any circum- stances (sudden braking, accidents) and cause injuries to the occupants of the vehicle. Do not fit the parts of the parking aid installed where an airbag may open. This could cause injury if the airbag opens. The parking aid is intended as an additional aid, which means it does not relieve you of the obligation to take due care when manoeuvring.

NOTICE! Installing the parking aid can cause problems on vehicles with LED tail lights. If you would like to install the sensors on metal bumpers, you require suitable adapters (not included in the scope of delivery). Do not expose the control electronics to dampness. The sensors may not cover signal lamps. When fitting the sensors, make sure there are no objects fixed to the vehicle that are in the detection range of the sensors. Apply a small amount of grease inside the sensor plug connec- tions.EN Scope of delivery MagicWatch MWE9004, 9008

Magic Watch is designed for installation in cars and caravans. 4 Instructions before installation

4.1 Determining the place of installation for the

Note the following during installation: The distance from the sensors to the ground should be between 40 cm and a maximum of 60 cm (fig. 3). For the sensors to function optimally, the angle of the sensor to the road surface should be 90° (fig. 3). The angle may not be less than 90°, as the road will otherwise be interpreted by the sensor as an obstacle. The sensor holders included are suitable for all standard bumpers. Should the vehicle bumper be mounted at a steep angle, 20° sensor holders with a cover ring are available as an optional extra (see chapter “Accessories” on page 21). The sensor holders included are not suitable for installation in metal bumpers. If your vehicle has metal bumpers, you will need special sensor holders with a silicon ring (see chapter “Accessories” on page 21). NOTE The sensors must be correctly aligned for the device to work prop- erly. If these point to the ground, irregularities and bumps on the sur- face may be interpreted as obstacles. If they point too far up, obstacles will not be detected at all.EN MagicWatch MWE9004, 9008 Instructions before installation

Note that the sensor holder depends on the installation height and the angle of the bumper. Select the right sensor holder and the appropriate drill diameter by consulting the table in fig. 3. The instruction manual shows how to install the standard sensor holder (fitted from the inside of the bumper), which produces the best visual result. Alternatively, the sen- sors can also be fitted using the sensor holders with cover ring which are provided. Install the sensors in the correct place (fig. 6):

6 Connecting the parking aid

The complete circuit diagram MWE9008 can be found in fig. a. NOTE MWE9008/9004: On some vehicles, the reversing light only works when the ignition is switched on. In this case, you must switch on the ignition in order to identify the positive and earth wires. MWE9008: You can set a switch-off time for the front sensors if you are unable to get a speedometer signal for the front sen- sor control electronics (neither an analogue connection from the speedometer nor digital via the CAN bus such as CBI150). The front sensors are activated by switching on the ignition and deactivated after the set time (parameter 12). A 9103555920 switch (accessory) can also be used to activate the front sensors.

The complete circuit diagram MWE9004 can be found in fig. b. 7 Detection range See fig. e The detection range of the parking aid is divided into four zones at the rear and into three zones in front. Zone 1 (rear only) This zone is the first limit range. Small objects or those with poor reflective characteristics may not be detected here. Zone 2 Nearly all objects are displayed in this zone. Zone 3 Nearly all objects in this zone are displayed, however objects may only appear in the sensors’ blind spot, or not be detected at all due to their consistency or small size. Stop zone (4) If there are objects in this zone, the parking aid emits a continuous tone warning you to stop. Nearly all objects in this zone are displayed, however objects may only appear in the sensors’ blind spot or not be detected at all due to their consistency or small size. The distance at which the parking aid signals to stop is adjustable in stages. Displaying fixed objects, such as a trailer hitch, can be suppressed.

The control electronics for the front sensors have the following control elements: Setting the values See fig. g to fig. h. Configuring the front control module (MWE9008) You can set the travel speed at which the sensors switch off by connect- ing the control electronics of the front sensors to the speedometer. ➤ Set parameter 11 to the required value. You can set a switch-off time for the front sensors if you are unable to con- nect the control electronics of the front sensors to the speedometer (e.g. no speedometer signal or signal via a CAN bus adapter such as CBI150). ➤ Set parameter 12 to the required time. You can set the system so that the front sensors not only display obsta- cles intermittently but all the time until they are deactivated by the travel speed or by switching off. ➤ Set parameter 16 to 1. You can set the sensitivity of the sensors. ➤ Set parameter 17 to the required value. 1 = low; 2 = medium; 3 = high NOTICE! Incorrect settings can impair safe operation. NOTE To stop setting the parameters without saving your changes, or to stop the entire set-up: refrain from pressing any buttons for a while.

Mirror function display (MWE9004 only) You can switch the left display for the right display when using the LED display 9101500062. ➤ Set parameter 14 to 1. Restoring the factory settings ➤ Press both buttons for longer than two seconds. ✓ The display shows F5. 9 Performing a functional test To test the parking aid, drive towards something slowly such as a wall.

ATTENTION! Make sure that there are no people or other objects behind the vehicle during the set-up process. NOTICE! Be very careful when you operate the device for the first time, and make sure that you familiarize yourself with the various sequences of beeps (fig. e).EN MagicWatch MWE9004, 9008 Using the parking aid

10 Using the parking aid The rear sensors (MWE9008/9004) are activated automatically by engaging the reverse gear with the ignition on or the engine running. The front sensors (MWE9008) are activated automatically once the speed of the vehicle is between 0 and 10 km/h and the ignition is switched on. If the speedometer signal cannot be detected, the front sensors are activated when the ignition is switched on or when you engage the reverse gear. After the adjustable switch-off time has elapsed they are deactivated automati- cally. A 9103555920 switch (accessory) can also be installed for activating the front sensors. As soon as there is an obstacle within the detection range, a repeated signal tone is emitted. As you approach, the tone sequence changes, depending on the zone in which the obstacle is, thus indicating the distance (fig. e).

11 Troubleshooting The device indicates no function. The voltage supply cable (black/blue and brown wires) is not connected or is incorrectly connected. ➤ Check the connections. The plugs for the sensors are not connected or are not properly plugged into the control electronics. ➤ Check the plugs, and make sure they lock into place. NOTICE! Stop the vehicle immediately and investigate the situation (getting out if necessary), if the following happens while you are manoeu- vring: when manoeuvring, the device first indicates an obstacle and the tone sequence speeds up normally (e.g. from slow to medium). Suddenly the signal tone slows down, or no obstacle is indicated at all. This means that the original obstacle is in the blind spot of the sensors (construction-related characteristic), and it is possible to hit it.EN Guarantee MagicWatch MWE9004, 9008

A long tone sounds (approx. 3 seconds) after switching on the ignition One or more sensors are defective or no longer connected to the control electronics. The control electronics display shows the defective sensor: for example E1 for the front sensor with short cable or E4 for the front sensor with long cable. ➤ Check the plugs and make sure they lock into place. ➤ Replace the defective sensor(s).

Device indicates obstacles incorrectly. False alarms may have the following causes: For example dirt or frost on the sensors ➤ Clean the sensors. The sensors were incorrectly installed. ➤ Adjust the position or height of the sensors (fig. 3). The sensors have contact with the chassis. ➤ Disconnect the sensors from the chassis. Objects on the vehicle (e. g. spare wheel) lead to false alarms. ➤ Set parameter 10 to 1, so that fixed objects are no longer displayed (see chapter “Setting the system” on page 27). 12 Guarantee The statutory warranty period applies. If the product is defective, please contact the manufacturer's branch in your country (see the back of the instruction manual for the addresses) or your retailer.
