Location
Selecting the proper location to mount the
Cobra® ESD-6050 LE is very important for
optimum performance.Both radar and laser
transmissions pass through glass but not
through other objects.For this reason the Cobra®
ESD-6050 LE lenses must not be blocked.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.
