Introduction Welcome to the world of sophisticated, early warning laser/ra dar detection. You have purchased one of the most advanced laser/radar detectors available.
Speed Detection Systems A speed detection device (often called a radar gun) sends out either a microwave signal or beam of light. When th is signal reaches its target, part of the signal is reflected or bounced back toward the emitting gun.
Laser The Laser Speed Detection System, also called LIDAR (for Light Detection and Ranging), uses a laser gun that emits infrared light pulses just outside the spectrum of visible light. E ach reflected pulse measures the speed of the object coming toward or going away from the laser gun.
Included with Your Radar Detector If any of these items are missing or damaged, contact your dealer immediately. Be sure to complete and mail the Product Registration Card.

Installation The LRD 2200SWS uses a highly sensitive horn-type antenna and IR laser sensor to receive radar/laser signals. Its sensitiv ity and range depend on the method of installation and the direction of the antenna/sensor in relation to the signal source.
Adjusting the Wind shield Mounting Clip 1. The metal portion of the bracket locks into t he plastic portion at three different positions. These positions can be used for vehicles with different vertical angles of their windsh ields. The back position can be used for vehicles with windshields that are slanted back.
