Introduction

Important Information

Safe Driving

Motorists are expected to exercise all due caution while using this product, and to obey

• all applicable traffic laws. Do not attempt to change settings of the unit while the car is in motion.

Federal Laws Governing the Use of Radar Detectors

It is not against federal law to receive radar transmissions with your Cobra ® radar/laser detector. The Communications Act of 1924 guarantees your right to receive radio transmissions on any frequency. Local laws that contravene this Act, while illegal, may be enforced by your local law enforcement officials until and unless they are prohibited from doing so by federal court action.

Safety/Strobe Alert

Use of this product is not intended to, and does not, ensure that motorists or passengers will not be involved in traffic accidents. It is only intended to alert the motorist that an emergency vehicle equipped with a Cobra Safety Alert, 3M or Tomar strobe transmitter is within range as defined by that product. Please call local fire and police departments to learn if coverage exists in your area.

Some states and municipalities prohibit mounting any object on your windshield. If you drive in these states or areas; you can mount the MDU on the dash.

Security of Your Vehicle

Before leaving your vehicle, always remember to conceal your Remote Display Unit

(RDU) in order to reduce the possibility of break-in and theft. Your Main Detector Unit

(MDU) has a two-position bracket that, when in the up position, presents a very discreet profile from outside the vehicle.
