Windshield Bracket Mounting Slot Power/Volume Control 12V Power Jack Menu/Save Button • Press once to enter Menu Mode. • Press again to save settings. Mute/Set Button • Press once to manually mute audio alerts. • In Menu mode, press to save selected settings. City/ Button • Switches between Highway and City filtering modes. • In Menu mode, steps forward through settings selection. Dim/ Button • Adjusts the display brightness. • In Menu mode, steps backward through available settings selection. Mounting Your detector should be mounted on the windshield or dashboard of your vehicle. Two mounting options are included: Suction Cup Mount – This is the best option for portability and mov- ing the detector from car to car. Make sure to thoroughly clean the suction cups and wind- shield mounting area to insure a tight seal. Hook and Loop Fastener– Included for dashboard mounting. Suction Cup Mount Hook & Loop Fastener Your detector should be mounted so that it is oriented parallel to the road. The suction cup mount comes standard bent at a 45° angle. The metal is designed to bend without breaking. Adjust the angle so when mounted the detector is level with the road. Avoid blocking the detector’s view by windshield wiper blades or dark tinting at the top of the windshield. Note: Do not attempt to bend the mount while the detector is attached. Windshield Incorrect Positions Correct Position Powering Plug in your detector using the included cigarette lighter adapter. Note: the adapter includes a USB port that can be used to charge your smartphone or tablet using the manufacturer’s charging cable. Turn your detector on/off by pressing the Power/Volume switch on the side of the unit. The unit will light up. 12V Cigarette Lighter Adapter 12V Power Jack USB Port Power/Volume Control Types of Screens 1. Menu/Settings Screen User and Alert Settings are available for customizing your detector. When Menu is pressed, you will see the screen shown below (Active mode icon will be enlarged/highlighted). 2. Standby Screens Compass Heading: Automatically displays GPS-based heading when connected to a smartphone*. If a GPS signal cannot be received through your smartphone, will be displayed. Vehicle Speed: Automatically displays your current vehicle speed using your smartphone GPS. If a GPS signal cannot be received through your smartphone, will be displayed. City/Highway Indicator: Shows curent filtering mode. Vehicle Battery Voltage: Displays your car battery voltage and automatically warns you if this drops below 11.9V. IntelliMute Indicator: Indicates status of IntelliMute. See IntelliMute section for details. *Works with iPhone and Android smartphones. Internet connection and data plan usage required. • Press to turn power On and Off. • Push forward or pull back to adjust volume . No connection to phone. Connected to phone. Note: Pressing Mute button while connected to an iPhone ® / Android ™ smartphone will toggle between these two screens. 3. Alert Screens Radar bands consist of X-band, K-band, Ka-band, and Ku-band. With Radar signals, the signal strength meter shows signal strength of the radar gun as well as relative proximity to the source. With Ka-band, you will also be notified of the actual Ka-band radar gun frequency being used. With Laser signals, you will always receive full alert and pulse rate (PPS) of the corresponding laser gun being used. Ka Band Alert Signal Strength Frequency Laser Pulse Rate • Level 1= Weakest Signal • Level 5= Strongest Signal Settings Quad-level IntelliSheild ™ False Signal Rejection: Highway Mode provides full immediate response to all signals detected. Use this mode when you are driving on interstate highways. Automatic door openers operate in X and K-band frequencies. To minimize unwanted false alerts in an urban environment where these sources exist, use one of the City Filtering Modes below: • City X: automatically mutes X-band audible alert until signal strength reaches level 3 or above. • City X+K: combined with City X, automatically mutes K-band audible alert until signal strength reaches level 2 or above. • City Plus X+K+Ka: combined with City X+K, adds filtering to Ka-band. • City MAX: Maximum filtering against urban false signal sources. The City modes can also be adjusted by pressing the City button for 2 seconds. IntelliMute ® : IntelliMute allows you to avoid audible alerts you don’t need to hear because you are stopped or moving slowly. By sensing the RPMs of your engine, IntelliMute knows when you are at low speed and automatically mutes alerts. You can set your pre- ferred engine RPM activation point and/or turn on/off IntelliMute by following simple steps that appear on your unit screen, under User Settings and then IntelliMute. IntelliMute ® continued • IntelliMute Engine RPM Activation Point Not Set. • IntelliMute On/Above Set Engine RPM Activation Point. • IntelliMute On/Below Set Engine RPM Activation Point. Note: IntelliMute may not work with some vehicles, especially hybrids or EVs because the detector cannot sense the engine RPMs. In such case, Quad-level IntelliShield City Filter- ing or Auto Mute can help reduce unwanted audible alerts. IntelliMute ® Pro: IntelliMute Pro prevents detection by radar detector detectors (RDDs) such as VG-2, Spectre I and Spectre IV when traveling at slower speeds. It is intended for use by experienced users only. When IntelliMute Pro is turned On and engine RPMs are below the IntelliMute Pro Activation Point, your detector’s radar detec- tion circuits are turned Off to prevent detection by RDDs. IntelliMute Pro cannot be turned on until IntelliMute is turned on and set. The IntelliMute Pro icon will appear in the display when IntelliMute Pro is On and the Activation Point has been set. Whenever engine RPMs a…

RADIATION INTERFERENCE: Testing was done in accordance with ANSI C63.4-2003. Section 15.35(b) specifies the use of an average detector in this band. In addition, the peak level of an emission shall not exceed the average limit by more than 20 dB using a minimum Resolution Bandwidth (RBW) of 1 MHz and minimum Video Bandwidth (VBW) OF 1 MHz. The following procedure is designed to determine if there are any spurious emissions from the local oscillator within the band of interest along with any additional spurious emissions caused by other circuitry within the device. 1) Determine the frequency of the peak emission: Start Frequency 11.7 GHz Stop Frequency 12.2 GHz RBW equal to or greater than 1 MHz VBW equal to or greater than 1 MHz Detector Function Peak Maximize the emissions with regards to device orientation, antenna polarization, and antenna height. Sweep the band using Max Hold for a minimum of 2 minutes. Record this frequency for measuring the peak emission. In addition record the…
