6. Troubleshooting

If the detector does not turn on:

・Check the power cord. Be sure all power connectors are properly

installed.

・Check the fuse that controls the power to the cigarette lighter

socket.(See your vehicle’s owner’s manual for reference.)

・The cigarette lighter socket might be dirty. Clean it with a fine

emery cloth to ensure a good, clean connection.

・There might be a problem with the vehicle’s electricity.

・Make sure that the volume control is in the ON position.

Caution

: Do not place any metal objects other than the

cigarette lighter or a cigarette lighter plug in the

cigarette lighter socket. Doing so could blow a fuse in your

vehicle or cause the metal object to become very hot.

If the detector gives a false alert when the vehicle hits bumps:

・Check the vehicle’s electrical system, including main battery cable

and alternator connections.

・Install a filter capacitor (470㎌, 35volts) on the back of the cigarette

lighter socket, across the power connection.

If the receiving signal is weak:

・Check the angle of the detector. (Place it on the point of horizon.)

・Radar antenna/laser sensor is obstructed.

(Relocate the detector clear of any obstruction outside the

windshield, such as a wiper blade.)

・Relocate the detector clear of the window tint.
