  7. Insert 680 Ω resistance (9e)into coding housing (9d)and additionally secure with a cable strap.

    NOTESNever replace resistance (9e) with a fuse. 

  8. Connect black cable (sw) of the wiring harness (9) with flat-type connector and black/white cable (sw/ws) with flat-type coupling so that the warning tone volume is set to low.

    IMPORTANT If the black cable (sw) with flat-type connector is not  connected to the black/white cable (sw/ws) with a flat-type connector, the maximum volume of the warning tone is set.

For vehicles without trailer coupling only 

10.1 Insulate and tie up free purple cable (vi) of the wiring harness (9).

For vehicles with trailer coupling only 

10.2 Solder purple cable (vi) of the wiring harness (9) to the brown/white cable (br/ws) of the trailer coupling wiring harness.

IMPORTANT When the trailer socket is plugged in, the brown/white cable (br/ws) supplies a ground signal which then switches off the backup assist. (When the trailer coupling is retrofitted the brown/white cable (br/ws) can also be tied up in the wheelhousing).
