DESCRIPTION
With Curb Alert you'll no longer have to worry about damaging your vehicle's front bumper when pulling up to or leaving a curb, or approaching the end of a steep driveway. Using Infrared LED technology, Curb Alert will reliably detect when you are getting too close to a curb and warn you with a short series of audible beeps, preventing expensive damage to your vehicle.
Curb Alert is a patented curb detection device that uses the latest in Infrared LED technology to determine the distance of your vehicle from a curb or other low obstacle. It sends out infrared waves that are analyzed by the system to determine how far your vehicle is from the curb. If it determines that your vehicle is dangerously close to the curb, it alerts you with an audible in-cabin tone to prevent damage to your front bumper, spoiler or valence panel. Housed within a weatherproof case to handle any weather conditions thrown at it, Curb Alert is an invaluable and easily installed addition to any vehicle with a low front end, from a sports coupe to a hybrid.
No more embarrassing expensive parking lot “accidents”It's happened to all of us. You pull up too close to a curb and you hear that ominous “SCRAAAAPE”. Sometimes, you'll remember to pull away slowly when you return and avoid further damage. But if you drive a sports car, or sports sedan, or any vehicle with a low front end, you can “hook” your lower fascia and experience one of the worst automotive emotions possible – backing up and having the curb rip your lower valence panel or even your entire fascia from the car! It happens every day, to innocent drivers, which is exactly a major frustration for the Corvette owner.
FEATURES:
Adjustable warning distance from 8-28 inch curb distances
Sophisticated weather-proof single infra-red sensor design
Easy self-calibration to the curb warning distance of your choice.
Easy to re-set the calibration distance once installed without reinstallation
Draws 35 milliamps when activated
Auto shut-off 10 minutes after engine is turned off
Built-in sensor failure indicatorSophisticated software programming eliminates “false alarms” from sunlight and random disturbances
