VG-2.
3. Mounting Bracket Location – Slot holds
mounting bracket firmly.
4. Radar Antenna – Compact, high-efficiency
antenna receives radar signals.
5. Front Laser Antenna – High gain optical
lens provides increased sensitivity and field
of view for leading-edge laser detection.
6. Rear Laser Antenna – An integrated optical
waveguide provides superior detection of
laser signals transmitted from behind.
7. City Button - Reduces the annoyance of
false alerts typically encountered in urban
driving areas.
