MAIN FEATURES
OF GENEVO PRO II:
GENEVO PRO II is our most
advanced built-in radar detector,
with modern automatic features.
It is designed primarily to protect
the driver from unnecessary
penalties for speeding thanks to
reliable detection of:
• Microwave radars (K, Ka).
• MultaRadars CT and CD.
• GATSO RT3 and RT4 radars.
• Red-light cameras.
• Stationary speed cameras.
• Section speed cameras (using
GPS updatable database).
ALERT INTERPRETATION:
In the case of a radar alert,
avisual warning appears on the
display. A voice refers to the radar
band and the intensity of the
intermittent tone (beep) express-
es the strength of the received
signal. The signal strength has
nine levels for better distance
expression. GPS points are
reported verbally, such as “section
speed cameras”.
ADVANCED FEATURES:
• A magnetic display, easily remov-
able for instant deactivation of
the system.
• Motion sensor for contactless
operation. Silence the alert
without having to search for the
right button.
• Ambient light sensor for auto-
matic brightness adjustment.
The display automatically adjusts
the brightness according to the
amount of light in the cabin.
• Noise sensor in the cabin. The
detector automatically adjusts
the alert volume according to the
level of noise inside the vehicle.
EXPLANATORY NOTES:
Radar bands: Dierent radar
bands are used to measure speed,
most often Ka, K, X, or newer
MultaRadars and Gatso Radars
that have extremely low transmit
power and are hard to detect.
CONGRATULATIONS ON
PURCHASING GENEVO PRO II,
THE WORLD´S MOST ADVANCED
RADAR DETECTOR.
Dierent bands and frequencies
are used in each country, it is
therefore necessary to have the
detector set up correctly for each
country.
• Ka: One of the most common-
ly used radar band for speed
measuring.
• K: The most widely used band
at all, is comonnly used for au-
tomatic doors at petrol stations
and shops, adaptive cruise
control, etc. Devices operating in
the “K” band cause false alerts,
so their quality ltration is
essential.
• X: Minimally used band, mainly
in some Eastern European
countries.
• Multaradars CD/CT: modern
radars used in Austria, Iceland,
Netherlands, Poland, Portugal,
Slovakia, Spain. Their detection is
dicult and requires a specially
modied antenna.
• GATSO radars: Are hardest to
detect and can be in a station-
ary or a mobile form. They
are used in Belgium, France,
Finland, Great Britain, Lithuania,
Netherlands, Slovenia. They are
divided into RT2/RT3/RT4 - a
higher number means a more
modern version. The detection
of these radars is possible only
by the latest and most sensitive
detector.
• Narrow: Narrowed bands.
Frequency of a specic part of a
band is detected in the narrowed
band to increase sensitivity and
eliminate false alerts.
• Wide: Broadband mode, on the
other hand, searches the entire
band. In Ka band from 33.4 GHz
to 36.0 GHz. Use this setting
only if absolutely necessary, as it
shortens the detection distance
and increases the number of
false alerts.
Filters and false alerts: For the
correct functioning of the detec-
tor, it is essential to lter unwant-
ed radar signals from sources oth-
er than police radars (eg adaptive
cruise control of modern vehicles),
so that the detector reports only
police radars. The lter settings
are further described on page 7
in the manual (ALERTS NOTIFICA-
TION SETTINGS).
Laser measurement: Laser speed
measurement is based on emit-
ting an ultra narrow and short-
time beam of electromagnetic
light at the level of infrared radi-
ation. The signal is transmitted
for a very short time at a specic
place (usually car’s licence plate)
and therefore, it is almost imposi-
ble to detect it in advance. The
only eective protection against
laser speed measurement is an
additional active laser system.
GPS: The GPS antenna also de-
tects measurements that do not
emit any signals. These include
section speed cameras, stationary
speed cameras (induction loops)
or “red-light cameras”. We keep
adding everything continuously
to the GPS database of stationary
threats - all you have to do is keep
the detector updated.

GENEVO PRO II CONTROL UNIT DIAGRAM:

12 13
A) GENEVO PRO II CONTROL UNIT
The control Unit is usually placed in a fuse
box, in a space above pedals, using stripping
tape to wires in your car, or using dou-
ble-sided duck tape. Connecting individual
components is obvious thanks to writing on
the control box. All can be easily done thanks
to plug-in connectors. When connecting indi-
vidual accessories please mind the plug you
are trying to connect the cables into, as they
must be connected to a correct plug, in case
it isn’t the system might not work properly or
be permanently damaged. Also be mindful of
placing the control unit so that the speaker
on top of it is placed facing in free space.
B) DISPLAY
The display is usually placed in vehicle cabin
on your consideration using the double-sid-
ed sticky tapes, or magnetic tape. We
recommend placing the display in an easily
accessible area.
C) GPS ANTENNA
Secure the GPS antenna with a suitable seal-
ant or double-sided adhesive tape to ensure
directing the antenna at the sky. We recom-
mend positioning it on the dashboard of the
vehicle. If you place the GPS antenna under
the instrument panel, the antenna must
not be overshadowed by metal elements
(beware of plated and heated windscreens).
you can check the antennas functionality on
the display. If the GPS icon glows constantly,
it means it works as intended, in case it’s
blinking it means that it can not nd a GPS
signal. The rst time it can take 1-5 minutes
for the GPS to connect.
D) SPEAKER
Signaling speaker should be placed some-
where in the leg-space of the driver, or
passenger. You need to pace it so that when
the speaker goes o you can clearly hear the
alerts.
E) RADAR ANTENNA HD+ / HDM+
The antenna is extremely sensitive and captures
signals emitted by radars; the choice of the
installation place is, therefore, crucial to its proper
functioning and good sensitivity of the detector.
The antenna is mounted to the front of the car,
usually into its plastic bumper or behind the front
grille in front of the vehicle radiator. It must be
installed in the place from where the front part has
a good view of the road ahead. It is ideal to locate
the antenna into the bumper vent, 30-50 cm above
the ground. If you choose to mount the antenna so
that the bumper covers its front part, check the ma-
terial from which the bumper is made and whether
it contains a metal reinforcement. Some types
of plastic can weaken radar waves and reduce
the eciency of the detector. Never mount the
antenna behind metal parts of the vehicle! When
installing the antenna, you can use self-tapping
screws in places where the nut can be attached
from the other side, as well as classic nut bolts. Af-
ter selecting a suitable location for the antenna and
the type of screws, drill two to four screw holes. It
is recommended that the antenna is attached with
4 screws. The antenna cable can be slightly bent.
Firstly, attach the antenna with two screws cross-
wise against each other and tighten them partly;
then mount the remaining two screws. In some
vehicles, it is advisable to carry out the installation
using a special support plate that is included in the
sales package. It has the shape of the letter “L” and
is made of thick steel plate with pre-drilled holes.
Firstly, screw the support plate to the appropriate
place, and then attach the antenna to the plate.
In addition, keep the antenna as far away as possi-
ble from heat sources such as the engine radiator
and air conditioner from which the antenna may
heat up. Failure to observe a sucient distance will
not guarantee proper operation and may cause the
antenna to overheat due to increased temperature.
F) LASER SYSTEM CONTROL UNIT
Control unit is installed in the interior of the vehicle,
either under the dashboard or under the padding,

however you see t. The only important thing is
that the control unit must not get into contact
with water. Connect the control unit power cord
to the control unit using the dedicated pins.
NOTE: 1A fuse is placed inside the control box. If
you require extra fuse it can be installed on the
cables (not necessary). After the laser system
control unit is connected to the Genevo PRO hub,
connect the sensors into one of the “F” slots for
front senzors, or “R” slots for rear senzors. In
case you use multiple sensors connect all of the
regardless of the order
G) LASER SENSORS
Laser sensors can be mounted on the front of
the vehicle in the front grill, above the bumper
or in the rear of the vehicle. Be extra careful
to not damage the cable, sensor or connector
during installation, as it will terminate your wa-
rranty. To ensure better looks of your vehicle
we recommend to use plexiglass „Perspex” to
hide the sensors. For more information about
the glass please contact your distributor.
To drive the cables to the fuse box, please use
the original cable pass. In case there is not
enough space there you will need to drill an
extra hole for the connector and the cable.
Please be extra careful again to not damage
cables or other car installation. After you nish
the cable installation, you should seal the gap
using silicon or other llings to prevent water
and humidity entering the vehicle. Check the
cable if its long enough to reach the desired
destination. When you have connected to-
gether with a cable from the sensor (1m long)
with the control box cable (4m long) make sure
to use waterproong duck tape. You can use
hot air or lighter to make the seal even tighter.
Place the sensors so that they have a clear
view to the front or the rear using the included
holders and double sided duck tape. If nece-
ssary, you can bend the holder into required
position. Make sure that the sensor is held
rmly and can withstand vibrations caused
by cruising and is still in horizontal front/rear
facing position.
