P5000 Series Owners Manual 12/16/04 5:16 PM Page 11 Obstacles may not be detected Due to the obstacle's position, angle or size, the reflected signal may not reach the receiving sensor . Complex reflections may also occur in a complex environment causing inaccurate detection. See examples 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. Low lying obstacle A B C A B B Complex environment: B will be detected but A cannot be detected. Distance A will be detected first, then distance B, as the car reverses.
