Introduction Welcome to the world of sophisticated, early warning laser/radar detection. You have purchased one of the most advanced laser/radar detectors available. The LRD 737 is a completely integrated laser/radar detector. It responds to the X-, K-, and Ka-SuperWideband radar guns in use today and also provides front/rear laser detection of the[...]

Speed Detection Systems A speed detection device (often called a radar gun) sends out either a microwave signal or beam of light. When this signal reaches its target, part of the signal is reflected or bounced back toward the emitting gun. The time required for the signal to leave the gun, bounce off an object, and return is used to determine a veh[...]

Laser The Laser Speed Detection System, also called LIDAR (for Light D etection and Ranging), uses a laser gun that emits infrared light pulses just outside the spectrum of visible light. Each reflected pulse measures the speed of the object coming toward or going away from the laser gun. There are two Laser signals: Laser and Laser 2. Unlike radar[...]

1. Radar Signal Indicator — A yellow LED under the R lights to indicate the presence of an X, K, or Ka-SuperWideband radar signal. The blink rate increases as the radar source gets closer. A distinct audio alert for each type of signal is also heard. 2. Laser Signal Indicator — A red LED under L/L2 lights and blinks to indicate the presence of [...]

Installation The LRD 737 uses a highly sensitive horn-type antenna and IR laser sensor to receive radar/laser signals. Its sensitivity and range depend on the method of installation and the direction of the antenna/sensor in relation to the signal source. The inherent nature of radar waves makes them reflect off metallic surfaces. This is why these[...]

Adjusting the Windshield Mounting Clip 1. The metal portion of the bracket locks into the plastic portion at three different positions. These positions can be used for vehicles with different vertical angles of their windshields. The back position can be used for vehicles with windshields that are slanted back. 2. For optimum laser detection, caref[...]

Mounting to the Windshield To mount the LRD 737: 1. Press and hold the clip release button and insert the windshield clip into the LRD 737. Release the button at the appropriate position. 2. Place the bracket and the LRD 737 in the proper location on the windshield of your vehicle, and press the suction cups firmly against the windshield. 10 C:Man[...]

Connecting the Power The LRD 737 is designed to operate on most 13.8 VDC negative ground vehicle electrical systems. The power cord provided with the unit has a cigarette lighter socket plug at one end and a small connector at the other. 1. Insert the small connector into the jack on the side of the unit. 2. Insert the other end into the cigarette [...]

Replacing the Fuse The cigarette lighter plug contains a 1-ampere fuse to protect it from power surges. 1. To replace the fuse, unscrew the top of the plug. 2. Remove the fuse and replace it with the same type. 3. To replace the top, push in the two metal contacts and twist into place. Note: Your LRD 737 comes with an extra fuse. 12 C:ManualsLRD7[...]

Operation You are now ready to enjoy the convenience and security of your LRD 737. Please read this section of the Operating Guide carefully to familiarize yourself with the basic operation of this unit. Power On Turn the volume control to switch on the power. When you power up the LRD 737, it performs a self-test of all its circuits. This test tak[...]

Memory Retention Feature The Memory Retention Feature retains the LRD737’s operational settings in memory for at least 2 days without power. When you turn on the LRD737, it will be in the same mode as when you turned it off. Full Warning When the LRD 737 detects a radar, laser, or safety warning signal, it emits a distinct warning tone and the co[...]

Visual Alert Only Operation You can operate the LRD 737 in Visual Alert Only by setting the volume control at the minimum position in Full Alert Mode. At this setting you can barely hear the audio alert in a quiet environment. Be sure that the Audio Alert Only indicator is off. Auto Mute Operation Press the mute button to activate the Auto Mute fea[...]

City Operation In highly populated areas, you may encounter many devices that use the same frequencies as radar signals, such as motion detectors, automatic doors, and intrusion alarms. These devices may trigger an alert called “falsing.” To filter most of the weaker signals and get the most accurate radar signal recognition, press city to turn[...]

LED Signal Strength Meter in City Mode The LED signal strength meter gives you instant information about the strength of the signal being detected. A weak signal causes the first LED to light, but as signal strength increases, more LEDs light. All three LEDs light when full signal strength is received. Use this meter to judge the distance from the [...]

Care and Maintenance The LRD 737 is designed to give you years of trouble-free service. There are no user-serviceable parts inside, and, except for the fuse, no maintenance is required. To keep your detector in new condition, follow these important suggestions: • Never leave the LRD 737 on the windshield when you park your vehicle. The temperatur[...]
