3 Intended use

Magic Watch is an ultrasonic parking aid. It monitors space when manoeuvring.

● MWE9008: in front of and behind the vehicle
● MWE9004: behind the vehicle

It provides an audible warning signal for any obstacles it detects.

Magic Watch is designed for installation in cars and caravans.

4 Instructions before installation

4.1 Determining the place of installation for the sensors

See fig. 3 to fig. 6

NOTE

The sensors must be correctly aligned for the device to work properly.

If these point to the ground, irregularities and bumps on the surface may be interpreted as obstacles. If they point too far up, obstacles will not be detected at all.

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 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 sensors can also be fitted using the sensor holders with cover ring which are provided.
  ● Install the sensors in the correct place (fig. 6):

Black (sw) Centre of the rear bumper

Brown (br) Front bumper

4.2 Painting the sensors

See fig. 2

NOTE

The sensors may be painted. The manufacturer recommends having the sensors painted by a specialist workshop.

5 Fitting the parking aid

See fig. 7 to fig. 10

NOTICE! Risk of malfunction

Align and attach the sensor holders correctly. Otherwise the correct function of the parking aid cannot be ensured.

The sensor holders must be attached with the retaining tabs pointing up and down.

NOTICE! Risk of paint damage!

• The ambient temperature may not fall below 18 °C when punching or drilling.
• We recommend using a punching tool.

Supplementary to fig. 7A

▶Drill the holes according to the selected sensor holder.

Supplementary to fig. 7 B

▶Make sure that you do not tilt the punching tool when operating.

Supplementary to fig. 8

▶Clean the adhesive surface on the inner side of the bumper with a primer.

6 Connecting the parking aid

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 sensor 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 MWE9008 can be found in fig. 11.

8 Sensors

7 Detection range

See fig. 15

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.

8 Setting the system

See fig. 16 to fig. 18

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.

The control electronics for the front sensors have the following control elements:

- You can set the travel speed at which the sensors switch off by connecting 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 connect 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 obstacles 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

Configuring the rear control module

You can set the sensitivity of the sensors.

▶ Set parameter 17 to the required value. 1 = low; 2 = medium; 3 = high

Suppressing the display of fixed objects (such as trailer hitches) (MWE9004/9008 rear control module)

ATTENTION!

Make sure that there are no people or other objects behind the vehicle during the set-up process.

▶ Set parameter 10 to 1, 2 or 3 until the fixed objects are no longer displayed. The setting 0 deactivates this function.

9 Performing a functional test

To test the parking aid, drive towards something slowly such as a wall.

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. 15).

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 automatically. 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. 15).

NOTICE!

Stop the vehicle immediately and investigate the situation (getting out if necessary), if the following happens while you are manoeuvring:

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.

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.

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).

NOTICE!

The system does not work if one or more sensors are defective.

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.
