Formula The One Setup

I have a quick question regarding the setup of formulas The One brake.

Its regarding the hose caliper angle. I havent got a torque driver small enough to fit the screw to adjust the angle. So at the moment the hose is directly vertical from the caliper. The manual says something about "the hose must have a radius of curvature of over 20mm"
I dont know what that means, but am I alright to ride with the current setup, or is the angle important?!
This might be a really silly question, but the manual does have a big caution point about this!

Thanks

    a radius of curvature of over 20mm
    = no tight bends in the hose.
