Technical description
Situations may occur where MagicWatch does not detect objects
or indicate the shortest distance due to the physical structure of
the objects.
Please note the following four examples concerning this.
Example 1 (see fig. 5, page 4)
Objects, which from the beginning are not in the detection range of the sen-
sors, cannot be perceived.
Example 2 (see fig. 6, page 4)
In the case of cleaved objects, the shortest distance will not necessarily be
indicated. For example A will not be indicated but only B or C.
Example 3 (see fig. 7, page 4)
In the case of diagonal obstacles the shortest distance A will be indicated.
Example 4 (see fig. 8, page 5)
In the illustrated case MagicWatch will indicate the distance A. If the vehicle
comes closer to the other one, the sensor signal first goes over to the stop
range and then the distance A gets into the blind angle and the device indi-
cates the distance to point B.
Caution!
As shown in these four examples, situations may occur where the
device does not indicate an object or not the shortest distance.
The device does not relieve you from your duty to be cautious
when reversing. You should always back with extreme care.
If an object gets into the non-controlled area of the sensors, Mag-
icWatch automatically indicates the distance to the next object.
This means, the piezo-speaker will then switch over from the high
to the medium sequence of pulse tones.
In this case always stop the vehicle immediately and check the
situation.
