Location
Selecting the proper location to mount the Cobra
ESD-9200 is very important for optimum perfor-
mance. Both radar and laser transmissions pass
through glass but not through other objects. For
this reason the Cobra ESD-9200 lenses must not
be blocked. The Laser Eye should have a view of
the rear window to take advantage of its 360˚
detection capability. It is best to locate your
detector as low on the front windshield as possi-
ble.

Examples of metal in the windshield area that can
block or weaken incoming radar/laser signals:
block or weaken incoming radar/laser signals:
1. Windshield wiper blades.
2. Mirrored sun screens.
3. Regular tinted glass does not affect radar
reception,although the darker tint at the
top of the tinted windshield prevents laser
light from penetrating.

4. Heated windshields, currently available as
an option for some Ford® (Instaclear) and
GM® (Electriclear vehicles act as an impene-
trable barrier to radar signals). If in doubt,
check with your dealer to see if this applies
to your vehicle.
