emergency vehicle or train, or a stationary
road hazard.
Because these microwave signals are within
the K band frequency, most conventional
radar detectors will detect Safety Alen®
signals as standard l( band radar. Your
ESD6060, however, is designed to
differentiate between standard K band
and Safety Alert‘” signals, and give separate
alerts for each.
Safety Alert® technology is relatively new,
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 on alert, please
watdt 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.
