UNIDEN LONG RANGE RADAR/ LASER DETECTOR LRD750 INSTALLATION BANDS HARDWARE WINDSHIELD 1. Clean the windshield and the rubber cups of the mounting bracket. Attach the rubber cups to the bracket. 2. Push the bracket firmly onto the windshield. 3. Slide the unit onto the bracket. 4. Gently adjust the bracket angle if needed. The LRD750 recognizes: • X Band: This band was the first frequency band assigned to police radar. It operated on a lower frequency (10.525GHz) with a higher power output. • K Band: This band is the most common frequency used in radar detectors (24.150). Its relatively small wavelength gives it a clocking distance of about 1/4 mile although, depending on the environment, it can detect up to 2 miles. Turn on the K band filter through the menus to filter out weaker K band frequencies and reduce false readings. • Ka Band: Over the years, the Ka band incorporated the Ka-Band, the Ka Wide-Band, and the Ka Super WideBand. Most photo radars (also known as stop light cameras) use this band. LRD750 Do not use the detector to adjust the bracket angle. 5. Plug the power cord into the detector. 6. Plug the cigarette lighter adapter into the vehicle’s cigarette lighter. NO. DISCLAIMER: Radar detectors are illegal in some states. Some states prohibit mouning any object on your windshield.

Mounting Bracket Slot The mounting bracket fits into this slot. FEATURES DOT MATRIX DISPLAY • • • • • • • • • • The LRD750 contains a dot matrix display. When a signal is detected, the display shows the band type and signal strength in an increasing bar format. If the LRD750 detects a laser, the display shows LASER. X, K, and Ka band alarms X, K, and Ka band on/off POP and Laser alert alarms Highway/City modes Invisible to VG-2 and Spector I and IV radar detectors Mute alarm audio Voice alert notification Battery voltage display Dot Matrix character display Memory feature saves user’s last settings (except MUTE) when the unit is powered down/disconnected from power. Band Type CITY / HIGHWAY Laser Voltage Meter OFF Once the detector is installed and the car is turned on, turn the Power/Volume dial away from you until it clicks. The unit is now turned on. The unit cycles through the display in this order: X - K - Ka Laser, then signal strength except for Laser (L). Voice announces each band. Once the cycle is complete, the detector turns to standby mode. Highway • Laser: Police use the laser’s narrower light pulses for speed detection as it is more accurate and faster. Laser beams are more detectable after they have bounced off their target and begin to disperse on the return trip. MODES The LRD750 operates in two modes: • Highway. Provides audio and visual alerts any time all bands and laser are detected. Recommended for highway or rural driving. (X, K, Ka, Laser) • City. Provides audio and visual alerts any time all bands and laser are detected. Provides a stronger signal so it can pick up weaker transmissions. (K, Ka, Laser) VOICE ANNOUNCE The LRD750 has a voice feature that tells you the unit status as it changes. For example, if the unit picks up K band transmissions, it announces “K band.” Turn this feature on and off through the menus. OPERATION After installing your radar detector, you can set it to your own specifications through the keys and the menu. CITY / HIGHWAY Standby Mode Signal Strength (1 - 5) Various Alerts 12 . 8v Battery Voltage Voltage Meter ON WHAT’S IN THE BOX INSTALLATION AND TURN UP • • • • • Install the LRD750 on the front windshield or on the dashboard. For best performance, position the detector as low as possible in the center of the front windshield. Be sure the unit’s view of the road, either to the front or the back, is clear. LRD750 radar detector Straight 12V DC Power Cord Windshield Mounting Bracket Hook and loop fastener tape Spare fuse for DC Power Cord TURN UP POP™ is a single-pulse Doppler radar feature on some K and Ka band radar guns. This type of radar gun is a very sensiive receiver; limit POP detect mode to highway and rural driving. DETECTION The LRD750 detects emissions from radar guns and sounds an audio alert for the driver. The detector determines which band range the signal is from and displays that frequency type on the display (X, K, Ka, or Laser). The frequency strength (1 thorough 5) also displays in an increasing bar format. False signals can come from other devices such as the automaic doors at a supermarket or even another car’s cruise control; these devices operate in the same frequency ranges as radar guns. KEYS KEY PRESS TO... MUTE • Turn alert audio off (voice - Mute On) during alert audio. Mute cancelled 10 seconds after alert ends. • In Menus, return to the previous menu option. DIM • Change brightness from BRIGHT to DIM to DARK. Voice announces all changes. • In Menus, toggle the displayed setting. KEY PRESS TO... CITY • Change mode from HIGHWAY to CITY. Voice announces all changes. Highway mode receives all bands at all levels and is recommended for highway driving. • In Menus, toggle the displayed setting. Turn the following features on and off: • Voice • X, K, and Ka bands • Laser • POP • K filter • Auto Mute • Battery • Test • Reset MENU Press and hold to exit Menus. • Do not spray cleaners or other liquids on the unit. Remove the unit when you are using these liquids. • Do not use abrasive cleansers on the unit’s exterior. TROUBLESHOOTING A radar gun transmits radio waves at certain frequencies that bounce off objects and return to the radar gun’s receivers. The radar gun then calculates the speed of the object. The LRD750 recognizes the following bands/ frequencies used by radar guns: BAND FREQUENCY 10.525 GHz 24.150 GHz Ka 33.400 - 36.000 GHz Laser 800 nm - 1100 nm RADAR DETECTOR DETECTORS (RDDS) Radar detectors are illegal in some states. Law enforcement officers use special equipment to detect signals radiated by radar detectors. If they are in a state where radar detectors are illegal and the officer detects a vehicle using a radar detector, the operator of that vehicle could lose the radar detector and be fined. The LRD750 is designed to be invisible to signals from the Spectre l, Spectre lV, and VG-2 RDDs. CARE AND MAINTENANCE Use common sense and your LRD750 will provide troublefree service. Please keep the following tips in mind: • Don’t leave your unit on the dashboard during summer months. Interior heat may exceed safe operating levels. Storage Temp. -22° to +203° F (Radar/Laser) -30° to +95° C (Radar/Laser) Operating Power Soure DC 11.0 to 16.0 V TRY THIS... No display or audio. Check the fuse in the plug. Replace if necessary. FCC/Industry Canada Information The unit alarms when the vehicle hits bumps. Check the connections. Be sure they are all secure. ICC: 513C-LRD750 The unit alarms briefly in the same location but no radar source was in view. There may be a motion sensor or house alarm in use within range. This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operaion is subject to the following two condiions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operaion. The detector did not alert when a police car was in view. • The officer may not have radar/laser units turned on. • Check that the band are turned on. Press MENU. If the band is turned on, the LCD will show ON. SPECIFICATIONS Receiver Type: MONITORING SPEED -4° to +185° F (Radar/Laser) -20° to +85° C (Radar/Laser) IF... MENUS Press the MENU key to begin the menu cycle as listed in the previous table. The screen displays the feature’s current setting.
