Preventive Maintenance
The following steps should be performed daily before operating any vehicle equipped
with the Bendix
™
VORAD
®
VS-400 forward collision warning system and Bendix
™
BlindSpotter
®
side object detection system.
• Inspect the forward looking radar and side radar sensor(s) for damage.
Remove any mud, snow, and debris that may interfere with the sensor
operation.
• Inspect the front of the vehicle for any damage that may have knocked the
forward looking radar out of alignment.
Cleaning
The forward looking radar and side radar sensor should be cleaned periodically to
remove dirt and bugs from the radar lens. All external components can be cleaned
with any products approved by the vehicle’s OEM for cleaning the exterior of the
vehicle.
The driver interface unit should be cleaned with a dry soft cloth. Avoid using
ammonia, silicone, or alcohol-based cleaning products that may dull the display
surface or damage the LCD screen.
Servicing
All of the Bendix
™
VORAD
®
VS-400 components are factory sealed and should
never be taken apart. The forward looking radar should only be removed and/or
installed by a qualifi ed service technician.
Forward Looking Radar Alignment
The forward looking radar is precision aligned during installation. If the front of the
vehicle becomes damaged, or the forward looking radar is removed, the radar unit
must be re-aligned by a qualifi ed service technician. Failure to align the forward
looking radar can result in improper vehicle tracking or reduce the ability of the
system to properly detect and warn.
