Manual Laser Defuser Shut Down During a Police
Laser Encounter (if equipped)
Press and release button to automatically switch the
Laser Defusers to
Receive Only
for 30 seconds during a
laser encounter. This gives you the option to control the
duration of jamming signal being transmitted by the Laser
Defusers.
Alerts from Non-Police Signals
Your K40 is sensitive enough to detect signals generated by
non-police sources such as automatic doors, traffic flow
sensors, and radar based safety features. To learn how to
minimize non-police alerts, please read about TRAFFIC
SENSOR FILTER (page 9), FILTER options (page 13), QUIET RIDE
(page 14), and MARK TO MUTE (page 18).
K-Band Filter
Your K40 rejects alerts from most vehicles on the road
equipped with radar-based safety features, such as colli-
sion avoidance. Police radar reception and detection range
are unaffected by this feature.
