INTRODUCTION K40 ELECTRONICS RADAR-LASER DETECTOR Thank you for purchasing K40’s newest radar laser detector “RD950” The RD950 model incorporates the advanced new radar antenna technology and extremely low power-consuming circuitry to ensure top class performance. It is a complete integrated laser and radar detector, which responds not only to X, K and Ka band radar guns in use today, but also the laser guns. The RD950 provides distinct visual and audio alerts to warn you of the presence of X, K, Ka band and laser signals for 360° round. You can drive with confidence when you bring along the RD950 radar laser detector. Operating Instructions PACKAGE CONTENTS RD950 package includes the following components. MODEL : RD950 RD950 radar and laser detector 12-volt DC power cord and fuse (2types – Coiled and Straight) Windshield mounting bracket with suction cups Dashboard mounting hook and loop fasteners Operation manual -1 - Windshield Mounting The supplied windshield bracket and suction cups let you quickly mount the detector on your vehicle’s windshield. INSTALLING THE UNIT Mounting Guidelines Follow these steps to use mounting bracket kit. For the best performance, select the proper location for the detector where it has a direct view of the road. Remember the radar antenna and laser sensor are located behind the rear panel of the unit. The antenna and sensors should not be obstructed by metal or metallic surfaces and should be pointed at the horizon for accurate long-range detection. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. - Choose a location that does not block the driver's vision. - Mount the detector in a level position. - Do not mount the detector behind the metal surfaces and ornaments mirrored sunscreen. Tinted windows reduce the received laser signal strength. Do not mount the detector behind tinted glass. Do not mount the detector where the driver or passenger might hit in a sudden stop or accident. Install the suction cups onto the bracket by fitting them into their holes. Attach the bracket to windshield. Attach the detector to the bracket. Bend bracket for correct detection angle. Plug power cord DC12V into detector. Plug power cord into cigarette lighter. Cautions: Some new models of cars have a plastic safety coating which is applied to the windshield. The suction cups may leave permanent marks on the wind shield once they are removed. Check vehicle owner’s manual to see if your car has the plastic safety coating. Connecting the Power The RD950 detector is designed to operate on most DC 12V negative ground vehicle electrical systems. The power cord provided with the detector has a cigarette lighter socket plug at one end and a small connector at the other. Mounting Type There are two ways of installation. 1. Insert the small connector into the jack on the side of the detector. 2. Insert the other end into the cigarette lighter socket of your vehicle. Hook and Loop Mounting The hook and loop tape included with your detector might be the best mounting method for some dashboards. Follow these instructions to use the hook and loop tape to mount the unit on the dashboard. 1. Use a damp cloth to thoroughly clean the dashboard. 2. Peel off the paper backing of the tape and apply the tape to the bottom of the detector. 3. Remove the paper backing from the other side of the tape and press the detector onto the dashboard. -2 - If the detector does not operate when you turn it on, remove the adapter from the cigarette lighter socket and carefully check the socket for debris. Also, check the fuse in the adapter and your vehicle's fuse box. Replacing the Fuse If the detector stops operating, the fuse in the cigarette lighter plug might be blown. If it has blown, follow these steps to replace it: 1. To replace the fuse, unscrew the top of the plug. 2. Remove the fuse and check the fuse to see if it has blown. If it has, replace it. -3 - OPERATION 4) MUTE Button 1) Power On & Volume Control Rotate the Power and Volume control wheel to turn the Power on/off and to adjust volume of voice/tones. a.MUTE MODE Press and release MUTE button to turn on/off Mute Mode.

Menu Options FEMALE MALE VOICE ON VOICE OFF WAKEUP_LONG WAKEUP_SHORT POP_OFF POP_ON AUTOMUTE_OFF AUTOMUTE_ON X BAND ON X BAND OFF K BAND ON K BAND OFF KA BAND ON KA BAND OFF LASER ON LASER OFF FACTORY RESET EXIT To exit the menu, a. Press Mute button while “exit” is being displayed. b. Press and hold Menu button for 3sec. c. Do nothing for 10sec. -4 - b.CITY MODE : The X-band sensitivity is reduced. This is because it is the most common source of police radar signals. K,KA and Laser remain at full sensitivity. c.FILTER MODE : Eliminates X-band completely. Reduces K and KA band sensitivity. Laser detection remains at full sensitivity.
