NOTE: In some vehicles, power is supplied to the cigarette lighter even while the ignition is off. If this is the case with your vehicle, you should turn off or unplug your ESD-6060 when parking for lengthy periods. 3. Attach the pad to the dashboard at your chosen location and remove the other paper backing. 6. Plug the cigarette lighter adapter on the power cord into your vehicle's cigarette lighter. 4 5 3 O P E R AT I O N · S E T T I N G S O P E R AT I O N · S E T T I N G S 3 Highway/City Mode Setting your ESD-6060 to City mode delays all X band audio alerts at lower signal strength levels. (A single beep will sound when the signal is first detected. ) This will reduce false alerts while you are driving in or near urban areas where there are many sources for conflicting X band signals such as microwave towers and automatic door openers. To change settings, follow the procedure in the table below, which indicates what you will see and hear as you complete each step. The factory setting is Highway mode. Muting an Alert Your ESD-6060 allows you to quickly turn off an audio alert by momentarily pressing the MUTE button. If you press the MUTE button a second time during the alert, the audio alert will be turned back on. Auto Mute Mode Auto Mute will automatically reduce the audio volume of all alerts after 4 seconds for as long as the signal is detected. The factory setting for Auto Mute is ON.

Visual Display An indication of the type of signal detected will appear in the UltraBrightTM Data Display. X K/Ka Type of Signal Radar X band radar K band radar Ka band radar Visual Display X K/Ka K/Ka Audio Alerts A distinctly different alert tone is used for each type of signal detected. For X, K and Ka band radar signals, the tones will repeat faster as you approach the signal source. The repeat rate of the tones gives you useful information about the signal detected. Safety Alert ® transmitters can be found in limited numbers in all 50 states, but the number is growing. Depending on your location, you may not receive these alerts regularly and may often encounter emergency vehicles, trains, and road hazards without being alerted. As the number of transmitters increases, these alerts will become more common. When you receive such an alert, please watch for emergency vehicles ahead of you, on cross streets, and behind you. If you see an emergency vehicle approaching, please pull over to the right side of the road and allow it to pass. LIDAR (laser) The correct name for the technology that most people refer to as laser is actually LIDAR, which stands for Light Detection and Ranging. Unlike radar, LIDAR must have a clear line of sight to its target vehicle throughout the entire measurement interval. Obstructions such as sign posts, utility poles, tree branches, etc. , will prevent valid speed measurement. Some common questions about LIDAR include: VG-2 VG-2 is a "detector detector" that works by detecting low-level signals emitted by most radar detectors. Your ESD-6060 does not emit signals that can be detected by VG-2, but does detect VG-2 signals and will alert you when a device is in use near your vehicle. Does weather have any affect on LIDAR?Rain, snow, smoke, fog, or airborne dust particles will reduce the effective range of LIDAR and can, if dense enough, prevent its operation.
