INSTALLATION

Battery Installation
Unit requires 3 AA rechargeable batteries 
(included)
.
Unit must plug into a live lighter socket to 
fully charge the batteries overnight before first 
use!
 
Remove the battery compartment cover 
by sliding the cover to the edge of the unit 
and lift up. Insert batteries and reinstall battery 
compartment cover. 
Ni-MH rechargeable batteries should be used 
and are included with the unit.
Note: DO NOT mix battery types as this can 
damage the batteries.
Important: Use only NiMH batteries. Ni-Cd 
batteries should not be used. 
Caution: Only use rechargeable batteries. 
Charging non-rechargeable batteries can 
damage the unit or possibly cause the batteries 
to explode. See battery charging section 
(page 6) to charge batteries with the power cord.
Mounting Guidelines
•  Mount the unit as low as possible near the    
  center of the windshield.  
•  Do not mount the unit behind wipers, 
  ornaments, mirrored sunscreens, etc. These  
  obstructions have metal surfaces which can   
  affect radar and laser signals and reduce 
  critical warning time. (Regular tinted glass    
  does not affect reception.)
•  Some windshields have an Instaclear
 or  
 
 Electriclear
 type coating, which affect radar 
  signals. Consult your dealer or the vehicle’s    
  owner’s manual to determine if your windshield  
    has this coating.
•  Avoid placing the unit in direct contact with    
 windshield.
•  To reduce the possibility of theft, unplug and  
  conceal the unit when not in use.
