This allow s you to turn OFF an y frequency which y ou know to be gener ating false alerts. (Note: Y ou can also turn off a frequency if you kno w it is NO T used in your ar ea of travel.)

To achieve op timum performance, r egardless of which mounting position you choose, follo w the basic steps on the following page. 1. Consider occupant safe t y when selecting a mounting location. Choose a location wher e the unit will not be hazardous in ca se of an accident.
4. Slide the det ector onto the mounting br acke t until it “locks” into place. 5. T o adjust the angle of the br ack et, squeeze and hold the circular “but tons” on the side s of the br ack et; this will allo w y ou to angle the br acket t o y our windshield.

W arning time may be minimal (as in situation #2) since a str ong signal is not pre sent until you are near the cr est of the hill.
T ypical F alse Aler t (Radar) Ideally , a Radar det ector should only alert in the pre sence of police Radar . How ev er , because other device s shar e X band with police Radar , false aler ts sometimes occur . Generall y , a false signal produces only a short audio and visual aler t.
