Power Connection
To power Passport, plug the small end of
the supplied coiled power cord into the
telephone-type power jack on Passport’s
left side, and plug the lighter adapter into
your vehicle’s lighter socket or accessory
socket.
Passport operates on 12 volts DC negative
ground only. The lighter plug provided is
standard size and will work in most
vehicles. 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.
Passport’s standard lighter adapter has an
integral fuseholder. If it is ever necessary to
replace the fuse, simply unscrew the tip of
the lighter plug and replace the fuse with an
identical 2 amp fuse.
Optional power cords
See the Accessories section for details on
our optional SmartCord.
Windshield Mount
Passport’s EasyMount windshield bracket is
designed for unobtrusive and hassle-free
mounting.
1
Depress the adjustment button on the
top of Passport (by the word ESCORT) and
slide the EasyMount 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 EasyMount 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 Passport on your windshield,
use the EasyMount adjustment button
located on the top of the Passport, and slide
Passport forward or backward to obtain a
level horizontal position.
When installed and adjusted properly, the
back top edge of Passport should rest
solidly against your windshield.
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 wind-
shield has this coating.
User’s Tip
You can leave the EasyMount bracket in
place on your windshield, and easily remove
Passport by pressing the adjustment button
and sliding Passport 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.
Mounting Location
WARNING: ESCORT cannot anticipate the
many ways Passport can be mounted. It is
important that you mount Passport where it
will not impair your view nor present
a hazard in case of an accident.
Where to mount Passport
For optimum detection performance, we
recommend the following:
• Using the Windshield Mount, mount your
Passport level, a few inches above the dash-
board, and high enough on your front wind-
shield to provide a clear view of the road
from the front and rear.
• Mount Passport away from windshield
wipers, other solid objects, and heavily
tinted areas that might obstruct the radar
antenna or laser lens.
