Where To Mount Your Unit
You will get optimum performance from your detector if you Mount it at a point approximately in the center of the vehicle, as low as possible on the front windshield without obstructing the unit's view of the road either to the front or rear. You can also mount it directly on the dashboard.
The unit's lens must not be blocked and the LaserEye should have a clear view out the back window to allow 360° detection.
Radar and laser signals pass through glass but not through other materials and objects. Objects that can block or weaken incoming signals include:
■ Windshield wiper blades
■ Mirrored sun screens
■ Dark tinting at the top of the windshield
■ Heated windshields currently available on some vehicles (Instaclear for Ford, Electriclear for GM.) Consult your dealer to see if you have this option.

Getting Started
Getting Started
To Turn On The Unit And Adjust The Audio Volume
| Rotate the On-Off/Volume control clockwise (away from you). | Tone | Visual Display |
| Three (3) beeps | The power indicator will light up in the display indicating that the power is On. |
NOTE
In some vehicles, power is supplied to the cigarette lighter even while the ignition is Off. If this is the case with your vehicle, you should turn Off or unplug your detector when parking for lengthy periods.
Settings
Settings
When changing the Settings on your detector, please keep in mind:
■ Each time the unit is turned On the factory settings of Highway and Auto Mute-On will be set. They can be changed while the unit is in use as described in the following sections.
Highway/City Mode
Setting your detector to City mode delays all X band audio alerts at lower signal strength levels. (A single beep will sound when the signal is first detected.) This will reduce false alerts while you are driving in, or near, urban areas where there are many sources for conflicting X band signals such as microwave towers and automatic door openers.
To change settings, follow the procedure listed below, which indicates what you will see and hear as you complete each step. The factory setting is Highway mode.
To Change From Highway Mode To City Mode
| Press and release the City button. | Tone | Visual Display |
| One (1) beep | Cty appears in the display |
To Change From City Mode Back To Highway Mode
| Press and release the City button again | Tone | Visual Display |
| Two (2) beeps | Cty off |
English
Settings
Muting An Alert
Your detector allows you to quickly turn Off an audio Alert by momentarily pressing the Mute button. If you press the Mute button a second time during the Alert, the audio Alert will be turned back On.
Auto Mute Mode
Auto Mute will automatically reduce the audio volume of all alerts after four (4) seconds for as long as the signal is detected. The factory setting for Auto Mute is On.
To Turn Auto Mute Off
| Press and release the Mute button while no alert is occurring. | Tone | Visual Display |
| One (1) beep None |
To Turn Auto Mute On
| Press and release the Mute button again while no alert is occurring. | Tone | Visual Display |
| Two (2) beeps None |

Signals Detected
The tables on the following pages show you the types of Signals your detector will detect, as well as the visual alerts it provides for each of them.
Audio Alerts
A distinctly different Alert tone is used for each type of signal detected (including separate tones for each laser signal). For X, K and Ka band radar signals, the tones will repeat faster as you approach the signal source. The repeat rate of the tones gives you useful information about the signal detected. (See responding to alerts on page 11.)
Visual Display
An indication of the type of signal detected will appear in the UltraBright data Display.
During radar alerts the letters X or 12 will appear.
K Signal DetectedX Signal Detection
During laser alerts the letteL will appear.

During VG-2 and Safety Alerts, the letters 12 will appear.

Instant-On Detection
Your detector is designed to detect Instant-On speed monitoring signals, which can suddenly appear at full strength.
NOTE
You should take appropriate action
immediately whenever an instant-on alert is given.
Responding To Alerts
| Description Interpretation | Recommended Response | |
| Tone repeats slowly at first, then speeds up rapidly. | Probably police radar FULL ALERT | |
| Tone sounds one (1) time only. | Probably a false alarm, but possibly pulsed radar or VG-2 nearby | Exercise caution |
| Tone instantly begins repeating rapidly. | Radar or VG-2 nearby has been activated suddenly | FULL ALERT |
| Tone repeats slowly as you approach a hill or bridge, then speeds up sharply as you reach it. | Probably police radar beyond the hill or bridge | FULL ALERT |
| Tone repeats slowly for a short period. | Probably a false alarm | Exercise caution |
| Any type of laser alert. | Laser alerts are never false alarms | FULL ALERT |
| Any Safety Alert. | You are nearing an emergency vehicle, railroad crossing, or road hazard (construction, accident, etc.) | Exercise caution |

Understanding Radar And Laser
Radar Speed Monitoring Systems
Three (3) band frequencies have been approved by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for use by speed monitoring radar equipment:
X band 10.525 GHz
K band 24.150 GHz
Ka band 33.400 – 36.00 GHz
Your detector detects signals in all three (3) radar bands.
VG-2
VG-2 is a “detector detector” that works by detecting low-level signals emitted by most radar detectors. Your detector does not emit signals that can be detected by VG-2, but does detect VG-2 signals and will alert you when a device is in use near your vehicle.
Safety Alert Traffic Warning System
FCC-approved Safety Alert transmitters emit microwave radar signals that indicate the presence of a safety-related concern. Depending on the frequency of the signal emitted, it can indicate a speeding emergency vehicle or train, or a stationary road hazard.
Because these microwave signals are within the K band frequency, most conventional radar detectors will detect Safety Alert signals as standard K band radar. Your detector, however, is designed to differentiate between standard K band and Safety Alert signals, and give separate alerts for each.
Safety Alert technology is relatively new. Safety Alert transmitters can be found in limited numbers in all 50 states, but the number is growing. Depending on your location, you may not receive these alerts regularly and may often encounter emergency vehicles, trains and road hazards without being alerted. As the number of transmitters increases, these alerts will become more common.
When you receive such an alert, please watch for emergency vehicles ahead of you, on cross streets and behind you. If you see an emergency vehicle approaching, please pull over to the right side of the road and allow it to pass.
Understanding Radar And Laser
LIDAR (Laser)
The correct name for the technology that most people refer to as laser is actually LIDAR, which stands for Light Detection and Ranging.
LIDAR operates much like radar. Its signal spreads out like a radar signal, though not as widely. Unlike radar, LIDAR must have a clear line of sight to its target vehicle throughout the entire measurement interval. Obstructions such as sign posts, utility poles, tree branches, etc., will prevent valid speed measurement.
Some common questions about LIDAR include:
■Does weather have any affect on LIDAR?
Yes. Rain, snow, smoke, fog, or airborne dust particles will reduce the effective range of LIDAR and can, if dense enough, prevent its operation.
■Can LIDAR operate through glass?
Yes. Newer LIDAR guns can obtain readings through most types of glass. However, the laser pulse also can be received through glass to trigger an alarm by your detector.
■Can LIDAR operate while in motion?
No. Because LIDAR operates by line of sight, the person using it cannot drive the vehicle, aim and operate the gun all at the same time.
■Is LIDAR legal to use?
Yes. It is legal in all 50 states.

Maintenance Of Your Radar Detector
Your detector is designed and built to give you years of trouble-free performance without the need for service. No routine Maintenance is required.
If your unit does not appear to be operating properly, please follow these troubleshooting steps:
■ Make sure the power cord is properly connected.
■ Make sure the socket of your vehicle's cigarette lighter is clean and free of corrosion.
■ Make sure the power cord's cigarette lighter adapter is firmly seated in your cigarette lighter.
- Check the power cord fuse. (Unscrew the ribbed end cap of the cigarette lighter adapter and examine the fuse. If required, replace it with a 2-amp fuse only.)
