Operating instructions
The complete system is installed into the last third of the trailer. Thus the EB+ Soft Docking is independent of
the truck and also very well suited for changes of the truck and trailer combination. Engage the reverse gear to
activate the system.
Sensors indicate the minimum distance to an obstacle to the system electronics. Depending on the distance to an
object, the system electronics will give out a warning signal (from the reversing alarm and LED outline marker),
which varies dependent to the object distance.
At a 2.5 metre distance, the driver receives optical and audio warnings. If the rear of the vehicle comes within
1 metre, the system applies the brakes with a force automatically adjusted for the speed of the vehicle and the
weight of the load.
