Auto Off Mode
Your detector includes an Auto Off feature - when turned On, it
will turn off the detector after the selected amount of time. The
detector will turn off after this time if no alerts are detected and no
movement is sensed from the iRadar app. The options are 30, 60,
90 minutes or Off. The default setting for this setting is Off.
Note: This feature should only be used if your detectors power
switch does not turn off with the vehicle's ignition. In addition,
we recommend to only enable this feature if you use the detector
with the iRadar app. Using it with the app will prevent unin-
tended shut downs on longer trips.
Advance App Controlled Functions

controlled by the iRadar app. They are not in the detectors
Settings Menu, and are instead easily adjust and changed in the
iRadar App.

driving below a selectable speed setting. This can be turned
On and Off and the speed setting adjusted in the iRadar app.

audio is sent to the vehicles stereo via Bluetooth or wired Aux
Input. Alerts can also be sent to a Bluetooth headset.

automatically reduced after 4 seconds. The signals will remain
muted for as long as the signal is detected. When Auto Mute is
Off, the alerts will sound at full volume for as long as the signal
is detected. The factory setting for Auto Mute is On.
Voice or Tone Mode

settings with either a Voice or a Tone Alert. Voice Alert provides
voice messages in addition to tones. Tone Alert provides tones
only. The factory setting is Voice Alert.
Quiet Drive™
Quiet Drive is a muted driving mode for times when a driver
wants less audible feedback while talking with passengers,
on the phone, etc. This mode is Off by default. If switched

button for 2 seconds.
iRadar Community
As you approach a specific ThreatArea you
will hear a short beep and then the app will
indicate the Cobra’s assessment of the
reliability of the threat.
High-Threat Area means multiple reports
have confirmed a legitimate threat in the
area recently.
Medium or Low-Threat Area means signals
have been detected but have either not been
confirmed or have not been reported lately.
Paying attention to threat areas will allow
you to be warned of potential threats
before you enter radar detection range.
Community Radar/Laser alert sharing
means that you have an entire network
of users working to keep you and your
wallet safe.
When you, or any other iRadar user, detects a radar or laser signal
the alert information is anonymously sent to Cobra’s cloud servers.
Within seconds, that information is processed and displayed on your
map as part of a ThreatArea.
Highway, City, City Max and AutoCity™Modes:
Highway Mode provides full immediate response to all signals de-
tected. Use this mode when you are driving on interstate highways.
Automatic door openers operate in X and K-band frequencies.
To minimize unwanted false alerts in an urban environment where
these sources exist, use one of the City Filtering Modes below:
•Highway: Maximum long range alerting.
•City: automatically mutes X-band audible
alert until signal strength reaches level 3
or above.
