How it works
The system works by radiating ultrasonic beams covering the area to the rear of the vehicle. The beams are reflected by any obstructions behind the vehicle, they then re-enter the sensors. The reflected beam information is processed by the control box to calculate the distance of your vehicle from the obstruction.
As with the other systems the Dolphin unit is activated when reverse gear is engaged. As the vehicle is reversed. When the vehicle is less than 1.5 metres from the obstruction the audible alert will emit intermittent bleeps. As the vehicle approaches the obstruction the frequency of the bleeps increases. At 30 centimetres from the obstruction the bleeps become a continuous solid tone.

This is an example of the display in action. If you had a post just on one side of the car the illuminated bars would vary and the shortest distance reading would be displayed. |

Customer Reviews
Rear Parking Sensors - Malcolm Pritchard - 28 April 2018
Just had the DPS rear parking sensors fitted to my Mazda 3 and they are absolutely brilliant. A friend who has the same car with factory fitted sensors thinks mine are better especially with the dash display.
