  6. Install ST.
    CAUTION:
    • Affix ST onto the vertical partition with flat surface.
    • When using a white board as a partition, affix ST on the flat surface without protrusion such as penholder. When suspending the plumb bob, suspend it vertically while avoiding protrusion.

    • Do not affix ST with lustrous tapes which may reflect the light, and place the tape within 10 mm (0.39 in) from the edge of ST. Handle ST carefully so as not to break it with the adhesive force of the tape.
    • Perform the adjustment work at lighted places. If the lighting is not enough, adjustment cannot be done, and accuracy rate may not be acquired.
    • The adjustment in the outdoors cannot be recommended. Note the sun position, when adjusting it in outdoor. Do not perform adjustment when the sunlight comes from front or rear of the vehicle.
    • Apply the lighting from the upper side, and make adjustment so that brightness is even in ST. If the lighting is applied from the position where light reflects at ST, the adjustment cannot be done, because the reflected light enters the camera.
