5. Deleting Laser Alerting and LaserShield

®

Many countries have their own, unique regulations when it 
comes to drivers being alerted for - or protected from - speed 
traps. In some countries laser can be freely blocked, in others 
it’s been made illegal. Always thoroughly check local legislation 
before first using your Freedom Laser. Please remember it is 
your responsibility to know, and abide by, the law.

You can erase Laser Alerting and LaserShielding in order to 
completely stay in compliance with local legislation whenever 
entering a country that does not allow for Laser Alerting. 

On the Single LED

 erasing is achieved by pressing and holding 

the button for 4 seconds or longer until the LED stops blinking.

On the Strip

 erasing is achieved by simultaneously holding 

-

 and 

+

 for 3 seconds or longer. After you have heard the 

“wiping” sound as a confirmation, the erased functionalities 
have been permanently deleted. 

A new software download and installation (available where 
allowed) is required in order to re-install those functionalities of 
your Freedom Laser.

Press the Mute button 

for at least 4 seconds

Hold both - and + 

for at least 3 seconds

or

Mute
