TROUBLESHOOTING
If you have problems operating your radar/laser detec-
tor, the suggestions in this section might help. If you
cannot solve the problem after trying these sugges-
tions, take your detector to your local Radio Shack
store for assistance.
If the detector does not turn on:
• Be sure all power connections are secure.
• Check the fuse that controls power to the cigarette-
lighter socket. See your vehicle’s owner’s manual.
• Check the fuse in the cigarette-lighter plug. See
“Replacing the Fuse.”
• The cigarette-lighter socket might be dirty. Clean it to
give a good, clean connection.
Caution:
Do not place any metal object other than
the cigarette lighter or a cigarette-lighter plug in the
cigarette-lighter socket. Doing so could blow a fuse
in your vehicle or cause the metal object to become
very hot.
If the detector gives a false alert when the vehicle
hits bumps in the road:
• Check the power connections.
