SettingsYour DetectorNothing Comes Close to a Cobra®11SettingsYour Detector10 EnglishSettings    •IntelliShield Highway/City ModesYour detector is equipped with IntelliShield false signal rejection technology which consists of a Highway mode and three different levels of City modes: City X, City X Beep Off and City X+K. City X mode sounds a single beep when the signal is first detected. City X Beep Off mode prevents all X band audio alerts until the signal strength reaches Level 3. City X+K mode combines the City X mode with prevention of K band audio alerts until the signal strength reads Level 2. This will reduce false alerts while you are driving in or near urban areas where there are many sources for conflicting X or K band signals such as microwave towers and automatic door openers. The factory setting is Highway. The factory City mode default setting is City X.Setting City DefaultYou can set the default level for City mode (City X, City X Beep Off and City X+K) either in Program mode or directly using the Set/City button.City Mode   NW          cTo Change From Highway Mode to City ModePress and release the Set/City button.Tone Visual Display VoiceOne beep c appears in the displayCity X or City X Beep Off or City X, KTo Change From City Mode Back to Highway ModePress and release the Set/City button again.Tone Visual Display VoiceTwo beeps h appears in the displayHighwayTo Set the City Mode Default Directly Using the Set/City ButtonPress and hold the Set/City button.Tone or Voice Visual DisplayOne beep each time the display cyclesCycles – see chart aboveRelease the Set/City button to select the current display as default.None City X Beep Off, City X+K or City XTo Set the City Mode Default Using Program Mode (See Page 7 For Instructions on Using Program Mode)In Program mode,  go to City.Tone   Visual Display  VoiceOne beep City X Beep Off City X Beep OffOne beep City X+K City X, KTwo beeps City X City XPress and hold the Set/City buttonCityX+KCity XCity X Beep Off NOTEWhen you change to City mode, the unit will enter whichever city default mode is set at the time.City X Beep Off  City X  Beep OffCity X+K  City X+KCity X   City XHighway Mode   NW           hSet/City ButtonPress and releaseSet/City ButtonPress and holdXRS9770_MANL.indd   10-11 8/30/10   8:39 AM

Nothing Comes Close to a Cobra®15SettingsYour Detector14 EnglishWhat to Remember While Using IntelliMuteIntelliMute works with all City and Auto Mute modes.Whenever engine revs are below the activation point, an arrow  pointing down will appear in the display. Above the activation point,  an arrow pointing up will appear.If, for any reason, the unit stops sensing your engine’s revs,  IntelliMute will indicate an error and automatically turn Off. The rev point you set will be stored in the unit’s memory when  power is turned Off and recalled each time the power is turned On. NOTE The rev point must be reset if you use your detector in a different vehicle.NOTE When initially choosing your IntelliMute activation point, a setting  of approximately 300 to 600 RPMs above idle is recommended.  You can reset the activation point at any time to fit your individual preferences and driving style.Setting the IntelliMute Activation PointYour detector must be installed in your vehicle.   CAUTIONDo not attempt to set the rev point while driving.  Your vehicle should be parked and idling. IntelliMute must be turned On before setting the activation point.Below Activation Point  N  W          i   hAbove Activation Point  N  W          i   hSettingsYour DetectorIntelliMuteIntelliMute is a unique feature that allows you to avoid alerts you don’t need to hear because you are stopped or moving slowly. By sensing the “revs” (RPMs) of your engine, IntelliMute knows when you are at low speed and automatically mutes audio alerts (except for strobe signals from emergency vehicles). Before IntelliMute will work, you must set an activation point for your engine’s revs (see page 15). Whenever the revs are below that point, IntelliMute will begin muting. The activation point will be stored in memory and recalled  each time the power is turned On. An i will appear in the display when IntelliMute is On. The factory setting is IntelliMute Off. NOTE IntelliMute may not work with some vehicles because it cannot sense the engine’s revs. In such cases, you can reduce unwanted audio alerts by using Auto Mute and City mode when appropriate.

See page 7 for instructions  on using the Program mode to select Set Compass.Calibration allows the compass electronics to measure and store information about the magnetic fields generated by your vehicle.The compass will remain accurately calibrated as long as your detector is mounted in the same place in your vehicle. If you change the location where the unit is mounted or move it to another vehicle, you must recalibrate the compass.The compass temporarily may not provide accurate readings if you are inside a building or enclosure, or are close to a large metal tractor/trailer, truck, or train. Once you are away from such a location, the compass will work correctly again.NOTE When the instructions direct you to drive in two circles, a large parking lot is the most convenient place to do so. It does not matter what direction your vehicle is pointing when you start the circles, which direction you go to make the circles, and it does not have to be exactly two circles. You do NOT have to make perfect circles. You can drive in any pattern, as long as you make two complete turns. Four three-point turns, two small squares, or any two complete loops will work as well as two circles. It does not matter what size the circles are, if your speed is constant, or how fast you make the circles [but less than two minutes]. Please be careful when making the circles and watch for other traffic.8-Point CompassNSWNWSWENESEProgram/Mute ButtonSet/City ButtonSelect/Dim ButtonXRS9770_MANL.indd   18-19 8/30/10   8:39 AM

Nothing Comes Close to a Cobra®31Understanding Radar and Laser30 EnglishYour DetectorUnderstanding Radar and LaserYour DetectorStrobe AlertSpecial strobes mounted on the light bars of authorized emergency vehicles (fire trucks, police cars, ambulances) automatically change traffic signals as the vehicle approaches an intersection. These strobes and the special strobe detectors located on the traffic signals, introduced fairly recently by 3M and Tomar, are already in use in more than 1000 cities nationwide. Cobra’s exclusive Strobe Alert detector will detect these special strobes and give an emergency vehicle alert. When you receive such an alert, please watch for an approaching  emergency vehicle and pull over to allow it to pass. To inquire about  coverage in your area, contact your local fire and police departments.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.LIDAR operates much like radar. Its signal spreads out like a radar signal, though not as widely. 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:  g   Does weather have any affect on LIDAR? Yes. Rain, snow, smoke, fog, or airborne dust particles will reduce the  effective range of LIDAR and can, if dense enough, prevent its operation.  g   Can LIDAR operate through glass?Yes. Newer LIDAR guns can obtain readings through most types of glass. However, the laser pulse also can be received through glass to trigger  an alarm by your detector.  g   Can LIDAR operate while in motion?No. Because LIDAR operates by line of sight, the person using it cannot drive the vehicle, aim and operate the gun all at the same time.  g   Is it legal for police to use LIDAR?Yes, LIDAR is allowed to be used in all 50 States by police. Your detector detects LIDAR (laser).Understanding Radar and Laser •Radar Speed Monitoring SystemsThree band frequencies have been approved by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for use by speed monitoring radar equipment: X band  10.525 GHzK band  24.150 GHzKa band  33.400 – 36.00 GHzYour detector detects signals in all three radar bands, plus Ku band (13.435 GHz), which is an approved frequency used in parts of Europe and Asia.VG-2 and Spectre I & IV+VG-2 and Spectre I & IV+ are radar detector detectors (RDDs) that work by detecting low-level signals emitted by most radar detectors. Your detector does not emit signals that can be spotted by VG-2 and Spectre I RDDs. However, your detector can be spotted by Spectre IV+ RDDs. Your unit detects signals from these or similar devices and will alert you when such  a device is in use near your vehicle.Safety Alert Traffic Warning SystemFCC-approved Safety Alert transmitters emit microwave radar signals that indicate the presence of a safety-related concern. Depending on the frequency of the signal emitted, it can indicate a speeding 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 Alert signals as standard  K band radar. Your detector, 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 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.XRS9770_MANL.indd   30-31 8/30/10   8:39 AM
Nothing Comes Close to a Cobra®33Specifications32 EnglishYour DetectorMaintenanceYour DetectorPop Radar GunsThe Pop mode Radar Gun is a single pulse Doppler radar that is a feature of a K and Ka (Bee III Ka radar gun) band Instant-On radar gun. It uses a single short time pulse to measure the target vehicle’s speed. Despite the fact that the short, single pulse makes the unit very sensitive to officer hand and vehicle movement and reduces the range of the gun in Pop mode to 50% of its range in Continuous Wave mode, this feature is added in an attempt to make the radar gun invisible to Radar Detectors. Although your detector can sense Pop signals beyond the effective range of Pop radar guns, there will be a signal to sense only if a gun is triggered. In addition, the Pop mode receiver section is more prone to false alerts because of its extra sensitivity. This is especially so in urban areas. As a result, you should consider using the Pop Detect mode only in highway and rural situations. Cobra Electronics has included a user selectable On or Off Pop Detect mode.Maintenance •Maintenance of Your Radar DetectorYour detector is designed and built to give you years of trouble-free performance without the need for service. No routine Maintenance is required.If your unit does not appear to be operating properly, please follow  these troubleshooting steps:  g   Make sure the power cord is properly connected.  g    Make sure the socket of your vehicle’s cigarette lighter is clean and free of corrosion.  g   Make sure the power cord’s cigarette lighter adapter is firmly seated in your cigarette lighter.  g   Check the power cord fuse. (Unscrew the ribbed end cap of the cigarette lighter adapter and examine the fuse. If required,  replace it with a 2-amp fuse only.)SpecificationsBand and Frequencies   Band  Frequencies  X Band  10.525  ± 0.050  GHz  K Band  24.125  ± 0.125  GHz  Ka Band  34.700  ± 1.300  GHz  Ku Band  13.435  ± 0.035  GHz  VG-2  11.500  ± 0.250  GHz  Laser  910 ± 50nm  100  PPS     910 ± 50nm  125  PPS     910 ± 50nm  130  PPS     910 ± 50nm  200  PPS     910 ± 50nm  238  PPS     910 ± 50nm  340  PPS Spectre I  13.300  ± 0.200  GHz  Spectre IV/IV+  Not Disclosed Safety Alert  24.070  ± 0.010  GHz  Traffic Warning  24.110  ± 0.010  GHz  System  24.190  ± 0.010  GHz    24.230  ± 0.010  GHz Strobe  700  ±300  nm  This radar detector is covered by one or more of the following U.S. patents: 5,497,148; 5,594,432; 5,612,685; 6,078,279; 6,094,148.
