Both radar and laser transmissions pass through glass but not through other objects. For this reason the Cobra ESD-9550 lenses must not be blocked.The Laser Eye should have a view of the rear window to take advantage of its 360° detection capability.It is best to locate your detector as low on the front windshield as possible. Examples of metal in the windshield area that can block or weaken incoming radar/laser signals: 1.Windshield wiper blades. 2. Mirrored sun screens. 3. Regular tinted glass does not affect radar reception,although the darker tint at the top of the tinted windshield prevents laser light from penetrating. 4. Heated windshields, currently available as an option for some Ford® (Instaclear) and GM® (Electriclear vehicles act as an impenetrable barrier to radar signals). If in doubt, check with your dealer to see if this applies to your vehicle. 3 Installation Windshield Mounting Windshield Mounting 1 Attach cups to bracket. 2 Attach bracket to windshield. Attach detector to bracket. 4 Bend bracket for correct detection angle (if needed). Do not use the ESD-9550 to bend bracket. 5 Plug power cord into detector. 6 Plug power cord into cigarette lighter. 3 2 *9550.MANUAL 8/9/00 12:21 PM Page 4 Installation Dash Mounting Dash Mounting Turn On and Adjust Volume Quick Start Turn On and Adjust Volume Note For your convenience Display Dim, City/Highway, and Muting mode settings are retained in memory even when the power is unplugged. 1 1 Note It will be easy for you to remove and reinstall your Cobra ESD-9550 detector at any time using this hook and loop material on the dashboard.

Depending on the frequency of these signals, as set on the transmitter, the outgoing signal can indicate whether the transmitter is on a speeding emergency vehicle or train,or at a stationary road hazard location. These microwave signals are located in the K-band and as a result, any radar detector which detects K-band radar will detect these Safety signals as standard K-band radar alerts. However, unlike a standard radar detector, your Cobra ESD-9550 is designed to differentiate between a standard K-band alert and a Safety Alert warning. Safety technology is relatively new so the number of transmitters in operation is still growing.You may not receive Safety Alert on a daily basis and should not be surprised to encounter some emergency vehicles, road hazards or trains not yet equipped with these transmitters, therefore failing to provide a signal. As Safety Transmitters become more prevalent (the number of operating transmitters is growing every day),these Safety Alerts will become more common. The Safety Alert Transmitter is in use in all 50 states in limited quantities. Facts About Strobe AlertTM Alerts motorists to over 50,000 emergency vehicles equipped with strobe transmitters that activate red lights at traffic intersections in emergency high speed situations. Detection Radar Frequencies There are now three frequencies that have been approved by the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) for use in speed monitoring equipment. They are: X Band (10.525 GHz),K Band (24.150 GHz) Ka Band (33.400-36.000 GHz) Your Cobra ESD-9550 can detect signals in all three radar bands including photo radar and STALKER radar which use the Ka band, and Cobra's Safety Alert signals on the K band. Radar Frequencies Facts About LIDAR (Laser) What is LIDAR? LIDAR stands for Light Detection And Ranging. While everyone refers to it as LASER the correct name is LIDAR. How does LIDAR work? LIDAR operates a lot like RADAR.Like RADAR,it spreads out. Not as quickly, but it does spread, as shown on the diagram below. Facts About LIDAR (Laser) LIDARs must have a clear line of sight to target a vehicle during the entire measurement interval. Intervening objects such as signposts, utility poles, tree branches, etc.,will prevent a valid speed reading. Note Strobe AlertTM is available in over 1,000 cities and works with Tomar and Opticom systems. Call your local Fire/Police department for your area coverage or area in which you will be traveling. 20 21 *9550.MANUAL 8/9/00 12:21 PM Page 22 Detection Facts About LIDAR (Laser) Does weather have any effect on LIDAR? Yes, rain,snow, smoke, fog, and airborne dust particles will all reduce the effective range, and if sufficiently dense, may prevent its operation. Can LIDAR operate through glass? No, LIDAR guns cannot obtain readings through any glass. But the laser pulse can be received through glass to easily and quickly trigger a laser detector's alarm. Can LIDAR operate while moving? No, since LIDAR is line of sight, an officer cannot drive, aim,and shoot while driving. Is a LIDAR DETECTOR legal to use? Yes, it is legal in all 50 states.
