Installing Detectors
Mounting Guldelines
For the best performance, select the proper location for the unit
where it has a direct view of the road. The radar antenna is located
behind the rear panel of the unit and the laser detection lenses are
bated behind the rear panel of the unit and the front window. 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.
~ Choose a location that does not block the driver‘s vision.
~ Mount the detector in a leveled position.
~ Do not mount the detedor behind metal surfaces, windshield
antenna, wiper blades, ornaments. or mirrored glass.
- Heated windshields, currently available as an option on some
Ford(lnstaclear) or GM(eleotriclear) vehicles at: as an
impenetrable barrier to radar signals.
. Do not mount the detector where the driver or passenger might
collide in the case of an abrupe halt.
Note : Whichever mounting method you choose, remember to
place the radar detector out of view when you leave your vehicle
This keeps the detector out of sight lrom thieves and prevents
exposure to extremely high temperatures, which can temporarily
impair your detectors performance.
Note : If necessary, you may adjust the bracket to the proper
ange by bending it To remove your detector, pull up the detedor
from the front pulling it towards you.
Caution : On some newer model cars, a plastic safety coating has
been applied to the windshield The suction cups may leave
permanent marks on the windshield once they are removed.
Check your vehicle owner‘s manual to see if your car has the
plastic safety coating.
Installing Detectors
Mounting Types
A. On Mndshleld
1. Attach bracket to windshield.
2. Bend bracket for
correct detection angle.
3. Plug power cord into
detector.
4. Attach brad Dim —> Bright
2, With the detector mounted in your vehicle, turn the steering
wheel all the waywthe right or Iefi and continue driving in a
circular motion Then press crrv.
3 If the calibration is complete, Thevoioe says, “Callbration
Complete”.
4. If lhe voice says, “Please filibrate Mn". repeat the
procedure.
Note : To achieve calibration, two circles must be made and it
must be performed on a level surface in less than 2
minutes.
The Basics
In this chapter we will explain how to:
- lum your detector ONA
- read the indicators,
Turnan Your Detector On
1. Plug Plug power cord in detect/1m

Using Different Modes
In this chapter, we will explain why and when to:
- use TUTORIAL mode
- use DARK mode
- use VG-2 mode
- use CITY mode
. use MEMORY RETENTION
TUTORIAL
When?
Your detector has the tmodal mode lo demonstrate all of its alert
indicators. In tutorial mode. you can check the status of all the
indicators and the sigle digit display.
How?
To start the tutorial mode, turn on Ihe detector while holding down
DARK and CITY The tutorial mode starts when the detector
sounds 3 beeps and P blinks on the Display.
To seleol the demonstration for each alert, press DARK. The
detector displays each alert indicator along with its corresponding
audio alert
To finish the tutorial mode, press CITY at any time except when
the voice alarm is operating
DARK
You can select from three levels of brightness for your radar
detector: bright, dim. and dark Once you set the display
brightness, the detedor retains the setling until you change it.
VG-2
To tum VG-2 ON/OFF, hold down MUTE until the unit says wez
ONIOFF'
Whatis VG-Z?
Police uses a VG-2 gun to find out whether you use radar detector
or not ve-z detedion is_neoessaiy w dated the police ve-z gun.
LRD-7050V is undetectabie by a police VG-2 gun and gives you
alert when VG—2 is in use near your vehicle. We recommend not to
use radar deiedor where ' IS illegal. You should check whether it
islegaltouseradardetedcrinyourslate
- Press lhe MUTE button untill V appears on the display
Voice Alert says “VG-2 On'r
- Press the MUTE button again until disappears on the displaw
Voice Alefl says “VG-2 Ofl”.
CITY
Why?
Your detector has two operating modes: city and highway. In city
mode. the detector requires a stronger X-, K-, Ka—band signal
before it sounds or displays an alert
When?
CITY mode helps prevent false alens in tightly populated areas
whee radar signals can bounce off sumwnding strumuresr The
city mode has no sited on laser alert orinstant-on radar.
MEMORY RETEN110N

U 9 Safety Alert
In this chapter, we wil explain :
. whatthe SA is
. how to use the feature.
What is the Safety Alert?
This systems is low— powered tiansmitters used Ivy some
emergency services and road crews to alert drives to hazardws
conditions, The Safety Alert system can indiwte stationary,
moving or railroad hazards Radar detectors that are Safely Alert
compatible indicate the presence of a safety Alert signal.
While this system is not in widespread use yet. there are already
several different radar detector models that can detect this
systems. The Wm has the potmtial to dramaticaiy increase a
driver‘s awareness to road tuzards, and decrease the potential for
tralfic accidents.
Note : Use of this product is not intended to, and does not ensure
thatthe motoristandanypassengerwillnotbe involved ina traffic
accident It is onty intended to alert the motorist that an emergency

emery cloth to ensure a good. clean connection
- Check the fuse in the power oofd‘s cigarette lighter plug.
~ Check the fuse that controls power In ypur vehicle‘s \

The detector gives a false alert when you use vehicle
accessories such as powerwlndaws, motorized mlrrors,
brakes, and so on.
- Check the vehicle’s electrical system for loose connections,
including the main battery cable and alternator
connections.

the dgarette lights socket, across the power connections.)
The detectorperlorms the self-test but does not respond
to radar signals when you see a police car.
- A police car might not be equipped with radar (see
Frequently Asked Q & A for more information).
. Police might be using VASCAR-type speed detection (see
Frequently Asked Q & A for more information),
The detector has poor laser detection range.
~ Be sure the laser detection lens is not blocked.
- Be sure the detector is properly mounted.
~ Use lens-cleaning solution to clean the laser detection lens.
Care & Maintenance
Your LRD—7050V ls example of superior design and
craftsmanship.
The following suggestions will help you care for your detector so
you can enjoy it for years.
~ Never leave your detector on the windshield or dashboard when
your vehicle is left parked. The temperature in the vehicle during
the summer can reach levels above what is considered to be
safe for this detedor.
. To make you less susceptible to break-in and theft, remove the
detedor from your windshield or dashboard when you leave
yopur vehicle ‘
~ Do not expose the detector to moisture, rain dew, road splash.
or other liquids that can damage the internal components and
reduce the sensitivity of the detector.
Frequently Asked Questions & Answers
WHAT IS VASCAR?
VASCAR is an acronym for Wsual Average Speed Computer and
Recorder VASCAR is little more lhan a combination stopwatch
and measuring device In its simplest application, the police officer
uses the VASCAR to measure a section of road. The officer then
starts the VASCAR when a vehide enters the section and stops
the VASCAR when it leaves lhe section. The VASCAR displays
the vehide’s average speed over the section of road.
HOW DOES THE TRAFFIC RADAR WORK?
A RADAR (Radio Detecting And Ranging) device bounces a radio
signal off of a moving object. such as a car. The reflected signal is
picked up by a receiver. Traffic radar receivers measure ihe
frequency difference between the original and reflected signals
This frequency difierence is converted into a speed, which
appears on lhe receiver’s displayr
Radar signals, like other types of radio signals, travel in straigrt
lines until lhey hit an object that either absorbs, reflects, or refracis
the signal. Radar receivers cannot see around curves or over hils,
so a vehicle must be in lhe receiver‘s line ofsighrior traffic radar to
get a speed measurement.
IS RADAR ALWAYS ACCURATE?
Usually, yes A well—maintained, puberty-tested radar receiver,
used by a professional operator, can be accurate to within '/m of a
mile per hour
The radar signal spans all traffic going in both diredions. Aimed at
anobjedlesslhan‘hmileaway,thebearncanbeaswideassix
oreigmlanesoftraffia The radarreeeiverreportsonthestrongest
signal it picks up. Vehicle size and shape can make a difference (a
big trudr reflects a stronger signal than a rrwtmcyde orsmall art
This means ihatthe radar receiver can sometimes pick up a
reading from a vehicle other thanthe one intended by the operator.
ARE RADAR DETECTORS LEGAL?
