where the unit has a clear, level view of the road and is
parallel to the road’s surface. The angle CANNOT be
adjusted after mounting
2. Remove the paper backing
from one side of the hook-
and-loop fastener.
3. Attach the pad to the
dashboard at your chosen
location and remove the
other paper backing.
4. Attach the detector to the
hook-and-loop fastener. You

Language
The detector can be set to either English or Spanish for all text and voice audio.
IntelliMute
INTELLIMUTE 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, INTELLIM-
UTE knows when you are at low speed and automatically mutes alerts (except for
strobe signals from emergency vehicles).
Before INTELLIMUTE will work, you must set an activation point for your engine’s
revs. 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 . The factory setting is INTELLIMUTE .On 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 mode when appropriate. SEN
Screen Saver
Your detector has a SCREEN SAVER mode. When SCREEN SAVER is turned On
(factory default is 3 minutes), the screen will change to Dark from it’s Bright,
Dim, or Dimmer setting after the time interval selected. While the screen is Dark,
the scanner will be displayed dimly.
NOTE: While
SCREEN SAVER
is activated, any alert will turn the display back on
at the last brightness setting (Bright, Dim or Dimmer). Touching any button will
also turn the display.On
Smart Power
Your detector includes the feature that, when turned , will put the SMARTPOWER On
unit into Low Power mode 15 minutes after the car’s engine has been turned .Off
Before
SMARTPOWER
enters Low Power mode, you will hear three beeps and
SMARTPOWER
will ash on the display. To return the unit to Normal Power mode
and exit Low Power mode, start the car, press any button or turn the unit
Off
and
then again. On
Low Car Voltage
Displays your car battery voltage and automatically warns you if this drops
below 11.9V. Your detector will then shut off to prevent further draining of
your car battery.

Displays information about the versions of software/rmware that are
installed on your detector.

Radar Alerts
In detail mode the radar band, signal strength and frequency of the detected More
radar signal will be displayed.
If you are a new user of radar detectors, you may want to use the Less detail
mode. In this mode the display will only show one, two, or three bars which
indicate how likely the alert is to be a police radar or laser gun. This threat level
indication takes into account the laser or radar band, strength, and frequency of
the detected signal.

3High
Police use radar detector detectors (RDDs) to spot users of radar detectors.
Your detector is able to identify signals from VG-2, Spectre I and Spectre IV+
RDDs and can provide alerts when any of these or similar devices are in use
near your vehicle.
Radar Alerts - Radar Detector-Detectors

With Laser signals you will always receive a full strength alert. In More Detail
mode the word will be shown on the display along with the pulse rate of Laser
the Laser signal. In Less Detail mode three signal strength bars will be shown.

Firmware Update
To update the rmware of your RAD450 use a micro-USB data transfer cable
to connect the detector to a Windows based computer. You do not need to
connect the detector’s power cord to update the rmware. With the detector
connected to your computer you should see “Download” on the detector’s dis-
play. Go to the Software Downloads section in the Support area of the Cobra.

Understanding Radar and Laser
Radar Speed Monitoring Systems
Three band frequencies have been approved by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) for use by speed monitoring radar equipment:
10.525 GHz X band
24.150 GHz K band
33.400 – 36.00 GHzKa band
Your 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
VG-2 is a “detector detector” that works by detecting low-level signals emitted
by most radar detectors. Your detector does not emit signals that can be detected
by VG-2, but does detect VG-2 signals and will alert you when a device is in use
near your vehicle. While no signal is being detected, press and hold the Dim
button for four seconds.
Your detector can be spotted by Spectre IV+ RDDs, but is invisible to VG-2 and
Spectre I RDDs. You can choose whether you want to be alerted to VG-2 and
Spectre I & IV+ RDD signals. The factory setting for VG-2 and Spectre I & IV+
alerts is Off. It is recommended to leave these Off unless you are concerned
about being monitored for having a radar detector.
The factory setting for VG-2 alerts is . Off
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:
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.
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.
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.
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).
