2006 DODGE SPRINTER brake sensor

102 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL
The following display appears if the reversing aid does
not detect an obstacle.
NOTE: Distance display
 "in" in USA only.
 "cm" in Canada only.
The distance between the sensors and an obstacle
detected within the monitoring range is displayed in
increments of 2 in (5 cm).
If the distance is less than 40 in (100 cm), a warning
signal also sounds, which is repeated increasingly
frequently as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.
A continuous warning signal sounds if the distance
undershoots 20 in (50 cm).
When a continuous warning signal sounds for
approximately three seconds and the error code
appears in the multi-function indicator, the reversing
aid is malfunctioning.
Maneuver with particular care, if interference from an
external source of ultrasonic waves (compressed-air
brakes of trucks, a car wash or a pneumatic drill) is
causing the reversing aid to malfunction.
Dirty reversing aid sensors or malfunctioning backup
lamps could also cause the reversing aid to
malfunction. Clean the reversing aid sensors and check
the backup lamps.
Otherwise have the malfunction traced and rectified by
an authorized Sprinter Dealer.

Range of Sensors
The sensors are able to detect a distance within a range
of up to 70 in (180 cm) centrally or up to 40 in (100 cm)
laterally behind the bumper.
WARNING!
Ultrasonic sources, such as the compressed-air
brakes of heavy trucks, a car wash or a pneumatic
drill, and other parts attached to the vehicle, such
as load carriers, could cause the reversing aid to
malfunction.
The reversing aid sensors must not be scratched
or damaged. They must be free from dirt, ice and
slush, otherwise they might not function
correctly.
The rear area sensors will be restricted in all of
these cases. This will increase the risk of damage
to the vehicle or the object and the risk of injury
to other persons.
Clean the sensors regularly, taking care not to
scratch or damage them.
