Beltronics RX55 Manual Do Proprietário

To power the RX55, plug the small end of
the supplied coiled power cord into the
telephone-type power jack on RX55’s right
side, and plug the lighter adapter into your
vehicle’s lighter socket or accessory socket.

RX55 operates on 12 volts DC negative
ground only. The lighter plug provided is
standard size and will work in most 
vehicles. Of course, your lighter socket
must be clean and properly connected for
proper operation. 

Note: depending on your vehicle, the
lighter socket power may either be 
continuously on, or it may be switched on
and off with your ignition switch.

RX55’s standard lighter adapter has an 
integral fuseholder. If it is ever necessary to
replace the fuse, simply unscrew the tip of
the lighter plug and replace the fuse with an
identical 2 amp fuse.

See the Accessories section for details on
our optional SmartPlug. 

WARNING: BELTRONICS cannot anticipate
the many ways the RX55 can be mounted.
It is important that you mount RX55 where
it will not impair your view nor present a
hazard in case of an accident.

For optimum detection performance, we
recommend the following:

• Using the Windshield Mount, mount your
RX55 level, a few inches above the dash-
board, and high enough on your front wind-
shield to provide a clear view of the road
from the front and rear.

• Mount RX55 away from windshield
wipers, other solid objects, and heavily
tinted areas that might obstruct the radar
antenna or laser lens.

RX55’s QuickMount windshield bracket is
designed for unobtrusive and hassle-free
mounting. 

Depress the QuickMount button on the

top of RX55 (by the word BELTRONICS)
and slide the QuickMount bracket into the
slot until it is locked into the position which
best fits the angle of your windshield (there
are four settings available). For extremely
horizontal or extremely sloped windshields,
the QuickMount bracket can be bent.

To ensure that the suction cups adhere to
the windshield firmly, be sure to keep both
your windshield and the suction cups clean.

To adjust RX55 on your windshield,

use the QuickMount button located on the
top of the RX55, and slide RX55 forward or
backward to obtain a level horizontal 
position.

When installed and adjusted properly, the
back top edge of the RX55 should rest
solidly against your windshield.

A few vehicles (including some Porsches)
have windshields with a soft anti-lacerative
coating on the inside surface. Use of suction
cups will permanently mar this coating.
Consult your dealership or the vehicle
owner’s manual to determine if your wind-
shield has this coating.

You can leave the QuickMount bracket in
place on your windshield, and easily remove
the RX55 by pressing the adjustment button
and sliding it off the mount. Again, be sure
to position the bracket where it won’t
present a hazard in the event of an accident.
Additional mounts are available.
