Where To Mount Your Unit

You will get optimum performance from your detector if you

Mount

it at a

point approximately in the center of the vehicle, as low as possible on the
front windshield without obstructing the unit’s view of the road either to
the front or rear. You can also mount it directly on the dashboard.

The unit’s lens must not be blocked and the LaserEye should have a clear view
out the back window to allow 360° detection.

Radar and laser signals pass through glass but not through other materials
and objects. Objects that can block or weaken incoming signals include:

Windshield wiper blades

Mirrored sun screens

Dark tinting at the top of the windshield

Heated windshields currently available on some vehicles
(Instaclear for Ford, Electriclear for GM.) Consult your dealer
to see if you have this option.

1.

Attach the rubber
cups to the bracket.

2.

Make sure the rubber cups and your windshield are clean.

3.

Push the bracket firmly
onto the windshield.

4.

Attach the detector to
the bracket. Check the
angle of the unit.

5.

To adjust the angle if
necessary, gently push or
pull on the bracket to bend
it. DO NOT use the detector
to bend the bracket.

6.

Plug the power cord
into the detector.

7.

Plug the cigarette lighter
adapter on the power
cord into your vehicle’s
cigarette lighter.

8.

You can temporarily remove the detector whenever you
wish by depressing the bracket release button and sliding
it off the bracket.
