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.
• DAHUA radars.
• 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.
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 (HDM+).
• DAHUA radars: Modulated 3D
K band based radar with ex-
tremely low power output.
• GATSO radars: Another modern
radars, they can be stationary or
mobile. 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.

ALERTS NOTIFICATION
SETTINGS:
FRONT RADAR: ON/OFF
REAR RADAR: ON/OFF (Turn on only when your GENEVO PRO II is
equipped with additional second radar Antenna)
SENSITIVITY: HIGHWAY - Maximum detector sensitivity.
CITY - Reduced sensitivity. We recommend using
the reduced sensitivity only in the case of frequent
alerts on a certain band (e.g. when driving abroad
with frequent false alerts on the K band).
AUTO CITY - Automatically changes the maximum
and reduced sensitivity depending on the speed.
CITY: Sets the limit of reduced sensitivity. (E.g.: If you
often encounter false alerts on the K band with
signal strength 2 when driving through the city,
then set K2, the detector will not warn of any signal
lower than and equal to the set intensity, OFF will
turn o this band in reduced sensitivity).
CITY K LEVEL: 0–9/OFF
CITY KA LEVEL: 0–9/OFF
ACITY (AUTO CITY): This feature enables the sensitivity limit on the K,
and Ka bands within the speed range set by ACITY
Speed (see ACITY Speed below).
ACITY K LEVEL: 0–9/OFF
ACITY KA LEVEL: 0–9/OFF
ACITY (AUTO CITY)
SPEED: Automatically adjusts sensitivity to you speed. E.g.
When the lower speed is set to 30 km/h and the
higher speed to 50 km/h the detector will not noti-
fy you of any signal at speeds of less than 30 km/h,
at speeds of 30-50 km/h, the detector will notify
you according to the ACITY setting, and when
driving at speeds over 50 km/h, the detector will
automatically notify you with maximum sensitivity.
ACITY SPEED
LIMIT LOW: 0-100 KM/H
ACITY SPEED
LIMIT HIGH: 40-130 KM/H
MIN SPEED: OFF/10-130KM/H - Sets the minimum speed at

8
which the detector starts to alert on radars. E.g.
when set to 20KM/H, the detector will only start to
warn when this speed is exceeded.
FRONT ANTENNA SETTINGS:
REAR ANTENNA SETTINGS:
The following settings apply separately to the front and rear radar anten-
nas (if used)
K BAND: NARROW/WIDE/OFF
K FILTER: HIGH/LOW/OFF
KA BAND: NARROW – Narrowed Ka band for more specic
band setup and fewer false alerts.
WIDE – enables detection of the whole Ka band.
OFF – disables Ka band detection.
KA BAND 34.0 GHZ: ON/OFF
KA BAND 34.3 GHZ: ON/OFF
KA BAND 34.7 GHZ: ON/OFF
KA BAND 35.5 GHZ: ON/OFF
KA FILTER: HIGH/NORMAL/OFF
MRCD: ON/OFF *
MRC T: NARROW/WIDE/OFF *
MR FILTER: HIGH/LOW/OFF * - This options only when MRCD
or MRCT is activated and lters out false alerts of
cars that use a blind-spot assistant or adaptive
cruise control. When the MR Filter function is
active, detector sensitivity to MRCD/MRCT radars
is slightly reduced.

found at genevo.com/radars_en.
* These radars can only be detected and are only available in the menu
when a GENEVO HDM+ antenna is connected.

SPEEDMETER - LEGALIZATION FUNCTION:
This feature is used to legalize the device for use in countries where the
radar detectors are prohibited. The detector stops alerting to radars and
lasers. Only your current speed will appear on the display and all radar
and laser detection settings will disappear from the menu. When enter-
ing the radar settings submenu, a notication of deactivated functions
will appear.
To activate the Speedmeter, the detector must be turned ON, hold down
the “brightness control” and “change sensitivity” buttons simultaneously
for 5 seconds. To deactivate the speedmeter function, it is necessary to
update the detector in the usual way and all functions will be fully func-
tional again, for help with updating continue to page 15.
