battery contacts from shorting against metal objects.
• Never mix old and new batteries in SOLO or any device.
• Since batteries last longest if used at room temperature, use SOLO at
room temperature whenever possible.
• Turn off SOLO when not in use.
AutoOff
SOLO has a special automatic shut-off feature to conserve battery life in
case you forget to turn SOLO off. (Please refer to page 4 for an explana-
tion of the AutoOff circuit.)
NOTE: The presence of even a weak signal can cause SOLO to remain
on. Turn SOLO off whenever you leave your car as the AutoOff circuit
turns SOLO off after 45 minutes ONLY if no signals are detected. A
passing police car or a nearby motion sensor could be enough to keep
SOLO on, thereby draining your batteries.
NOTE: We recommend using only standard AA alkaline batteries for the
most consistent battery life. While AA lithium batteries and AA alkaline
rechargeable batteries may also be used, the resulting battery life will
vary. We do NOT recommend NiCad rechargeable batteries.
WARNING
Do not leave SOLO in direct sunlight in a parked vehicle, as it may
exceed the battery’s temperature limit and damage the batteries and the
detector. This damage is not covered by SOLO’s warranty.
Low Battery Warning
When SOLO's batteries have only approximately six hours of battery life
remaining, SOLO will sound two “bleeps” and flash the entire Signal
Strength Meter every five minutes. SOLO’s batteries should be replaced at
this time since performance begins to decline once the batteries are
within the warning range. The amount of battery life remaining depends,
to a large extent, on how many alerts you receive and how your SOLO is
being used. If you are unable to replace SOLO’s batteries at the start of
the Low Battery warning, consider lowering your SOLO’s audio volume
and utilizing the AutoMute, Mute and Dim features to prolong battery life.
Optional Power Cord
SOLO’s power jack allows you to power SOLO using an optional Power
Cord. SOLO is designed for 3V operation and its unique circuitry will not
accommodate a standard 12V power cord. Using any cord other than the
Power Cord/Converter Set designed specifically for SOLO may cause
damage not covered by warranty. To order a SOLO Power Cord/Converter,
call 1-800-433-3487 toll-free.
WARNING
SOLO should never be directly wired to any power source, particularly a
12V automotive source. Use ONLY with SOLO's 3V power converter.
