−
Place the protective rings -2- on the rubber membranes of the sensors -3-.

Paint the sensors and spacers* (see Page 4, figure 3, -1-) evenly, and not too thickly, in the same colour as the car.

Remove the protective rings -1- and -2- carefully directly after painting (while the paint is still wet) using tweezers
and let the paint dry.
Note
The protective rings -1- and -2- must be placed on the sensors -3- and -4- before any painting is carried out.

Repaint as necessary after drying (e.g. clear lacquer for twin coat painting).
