LED DISPLAY
When a signal is detected, the display will show the band 
type, City/Highway setting, and signal strength. If the 
LRD450 detects a laser, the display shows L.
INSTALLATION AND TURN UP
Install the LRD450 on the front windshield or on the 
dashboard. For best performance, position the detector as 
low as possible in the center of the front windshield. Be 
sure the unit’s view of the road, either to the front or the 
back, is clear. 
INSTALLATION
WINDSHIELD
1.  Clean the windshield and the rubber cups of the 
mounting bracket. Attach the rubber cups to the 
bracket.
2.  Push the bracket firmly onto the windshield.
3.  Slide the unit onto the bracket. 
4.  Gently adjust the bracket angle if needed.
Do not use the detector to adjust the bracket angle.
5.  Plug the power cord into the detector.
6.  Plug the cigarette lighter adapter into the vehicle’s 
cigarette lighter.
You can remove the detector by pressing the 
Eject button.
Dashboard
1.  Place the unit on the dashboard so that it has a clear, 
level view of the road.
The unit cannot be readjusted after final installation.
2.  Remove the backing from one side of the hook and loop 
fastener tape.
3.  Place that fastener tape on the dashboard where you 
want the unit.
4.  Attach the other piece of the fastener tape to the 
bottom of the unit and attach the unit to the dashboard 
fastener tape.
You can remove the unit as needed. 
5.  Plug the power cord into the detector.
6.  Plug the cigarette lighter adapter into the vehicle’s 
cigarette lighter.
TURN UP
Once the detector is installed and the car is turned on, turn 
the volume dial away from you until it clicks. The unit is 
now turned on.
The LCD cycles through the display in this order: X - K - Ka - 
Laser, then signal strength 1- 5 except for Laser (L). 
Once the cycle is complete, the detector turns to standby 
mode.

DETECTION
The LRD450 detects emissions from radar guns and sounds 
an audio alert for the driver. The detector determines 
which band range the signal is from and displays that 
frequency type on the display (X, K, Ka, or L). The frequency 
strength (1 thorough 5) also displays as applicable. If there 
is a specific alert code, that is also displayed.
False signals can come from other devices such as the 
automatic doors at a supermarket or even another 
car’s cruise control; these devices operate in the 
same frequency ranges as radar guns. 
BANDS
The LRD450 recognizes:
•  X Band:  This band was the first frequency band assigned 
to police radar. It operated on a lower frequency 
(10.525GHz) with a higher power output.
•  K Band: This band is the most common frequency used 
in radar detectors (24.150). Its relatively small 
wavelength gives it a clocking distance of about 1/4  mile 
although, depending on the environment, it can detect 
up to 2 miles. Turn on the K band filter (press and hold 
CITY) to filter out weaker K band frequencies and reduce 
false readings.
•  Ka Band: Over the years, the Ka band incorporated the 
Ka-Band, the Ka Wide-Band, and the Ka Super Wide-
Band. Most photo radars (also known as stop light 
cameras) use this band.
POP™ is a single-pulse Doppler radar feature on some 
K and Ka band radar guns. This type of radar gun is 
a very sensitive receiver; limit POP detect mode to 
highway and rural driving.
•  Laser: Police use the laser’s narrower light pulses for 
speed detection as it is more accurate and faster. Laser 
beams are more detectable after they have bounced off 
their target and begin to disperse on the return trip.
MODES
The LRD450 operates in three modes:
•  Highway. Provides audio and visual alerts any time all 
bands and laser are detected. Recommended for 
highway or rural driving. (X, K, Ka Laser)
•  City. Provides audio and visual alerts any time all bands 
and laser are detected. Provides a stronger signal for the 
X band so it can pick up weaker signals. (X, K, Ka, Laser)
•  City I. Similar to City mode, but no X band is detected.

OPERATION
SETUP
After installing your radar detector, you can set it to your 
own specifications.
•  Mute/Auto Mute. When an audio alert sounds, pressing 
MUTE lets you turn off the audio alarm. Press and hold 
MUTE to set Auto Mute to ON to reduce the audio 
alarm by 50% automatically after 3 seconds during an 
alert.
•  Dim. Change the brightness of the display. (Default - 
Bright)
•  Set City, City I, or Highway
