Unfortunately we don't have a manual on this vehicle because it is not offered here in the USA. However, the crank sensor needs to measure crankshaft revolutions so it needs to be close to the crankshaft. Most all vehicles put them on the side of the crank pulley because this is where the tone wheel is for the sensor to measure revolutions.

Here is a general guide that shows this and explains it in more details. Thanks
