QUICK START GUIDE
This Quick Start Guide provides basic information on setting up the R9. Refer to the R9 Owner's Manual for details. This manual is located on the USB drive included in the packaging.
ABOUT R9
R9 is an advanced professionally-installed laser radar detector with laser interruption capabilities. Front and rear radar detectors and laser transponders provide outstanding detecting range while its sleek design blends with your vehicle's interior. An alert LED lets you know if signals are coming from the front (red) or rear (blue). If no signals are detected, the LED is green.
This illustration shows R9's basic element placement (your installer will place these elements according to your vehicle's specific layout.)
