Location
Selecting the proper location to mount the Cobra
ESD-9150 is very important for optimum
performance. Both radar and laser transmissions
pass through glass but not through other objects.
For this reason the Cobra ESD-9150 lenses must
not be blocked. It should have a view of the rear
window to take advantage of LaserEye® 360˚
detection. It is best to locate your detector as low
on the front windshield as possible.
Examples of metal in the windshield area that can
block or weaken incoming radar/laser signals:
1.Windshield wiper blades.
2. Mirrored sun screens.
3. Regular tinted glass does not affect radar
reception,although the darker tint at the
top of the tinted windshield prevents laser
light from penetrating.
4. Heated windshields, currently available as
an option for some Ford® (Instaclear) and
GM® (Electriclear vehicles act as an
impenetrable barrier to radar signals). If in
doubt, check with your dealer to see if this
applies to your vehicle.
