Suggested fitting locations

The C550 is small enough to install 
in a number of different locations.

If you install above the rear view 
mirror, you can tuck the power 
cable under the trim panels around 
the glass and down the A-pillar. 
Alternatively, you can mount the 
C550 on your dash using the 
supplied magnetic mount. 

Switching on for the first time

Insert the power plug into the vehicle’s cigarette lighter socket, then connect the other end 
to the C550’s 12v power socket. There is an illuminated ON / OFF button on the power plug.

All the LEDs will light up briefly, before displaying the database version number

Once the C550 is receiving a good GPS signal, the display will show the current time and 
your driving speed.

Trinity database

The C550 is Cheetah’s  newest and most advanced GPS speed and red light camera detector, 
designed to fully maximise the potential of our Trinity 2.0 database, so it provides the widest 
and most detailed range of voice alerts of any GPS driver safety system on the market.

We recommend purchasing a Membership Package to keep up to date with the very latest 
cameras. Updating your C550 with the latest Trinity database releases via your PC is easy.
