Power Connection
To power your Pro100, plug the small
end of the power cord, (telephone-type
connector) into the modular jack on the
Pro100’s right side, and plug the lighter
plug adapter into your vehicle’s lighter
socket or accessory socket.
Your Pro100 operates on 12 volts DC
negative ground only. The lighter plug
provided is a standard size and will work
in most vehicles. However, some vehicles
may require the optional European sleeve
to ensure a snug fit. If so, simply call our
service department to order one. This
sleeve slides over the lighter plug. Of
course, your lighter socket must be clean
and properly connected for proper
operation.
NOTE: Depending on your vehicle, the
lighter socket power may either be
continuously on, or it may be switched on
and off with your ignition switch.
Optional power cords
See the Accessories section for details on
our optional coiled SmartCord or Direct-
wire power cords.

Mounting Location
WARNING: Beltronics cannot anticipate the
many ways the Pro100 can be mounted.
It is important that you mount your Pro100
where it will not impair your view nor
present a hazard in case of an accident.
Where to mount your Pro100
For optimum detection performance, we
recommend the following:
• Using the QuickMount bracket, mount
your Pro100 level, and high enough on
your front windshield to provide a clear
view of the road from the front and rear.
• Mount the Pro100 away from windshield
wipers, other solid objects, and heavily
tinted areas that might obstruct the radar
antenna or laser lens.

Installation

Caution!
A few vehicles (including some Porsches)
have windshields with a soft anti-lacerative
coating on the inside surface. Use of
suction cups will permanently mar this
coating. Consult your dealership or the
vehicle owner’s manual to determine if
your windshield has this coating.
User’s Tip
You can leave the QuickMount bracket in
place on your windshield, and easily remove
the Pro100 by pressing the adjustment
button and sliding the Pro100 off the
mount. Again, be sure to position the
bracket where it won’t present a hazard in
the event of an accident. Additional mounts
are available.
Windshield QuickMount
The Pro100’s QuickMount bracket is
designed for unobtrusive and hassle-free
mounting.
1
Depress the QuickMount button
on the top of the Pro100 (by the word
BELTRONICS) and slide the QuickMount
bracket into the slot until it is locked into
the position which best fits the angle of
your windshield (there are four settings
available). For extremely horizontal or
extremely sloped windshields,
the QuickMount bracket can
be bent.
To ensure that the suction cups
adhere to the windshield firmly, be sure to
keep both your windshield and the suction
cups clean.
2
To adjust the Pro100 on your
windshield, use the QuickMount
adjustment button located on the top of
the Pro100, and slide the Pro100 forward
or backward to obtain a level horizontal
position.
When installed and adjusted properly, the
back top edge of the Pro100 should rest
solidly against your windshield.
