To start using your Radenso Pro-M radar detector follow these easy steps:
The Radenso Pro-M is one of the most powerful radar detectors in the industry. It’s designed to protect
the driver from speeding ckets/fines. The Radenso Pro-M communicates with the driver in English and
it’s main funcons are the detecon of microwave radars (X / K / Ka narrow bands), laser guns, red light
cameras and fixed- speed cameras (GPS database).
When a radar signal is detected, the driver will be alerted by a visual text warning and a voice/tone
alert. The display and voice alert will indicate the detected radar band, frequency and signal strength. A
beeping warning tone will increase its intensity with increasing signal strenght. The signal strenght has
ten levels. GPS alerts are reported by voice; for example “Speed Camera”.

The AutoCity driving mode allows the seng of minimum alert detecon speed for signal suppression
and signal filtering resulng in significantly reduced false alerts. Select AutoCity in Seng Mode.
Seng AutoCity speed: (feature selectable only if Seng Mode is set to AutoCity): Tapping the Middle
buon lets you select the speed for eding
To change the sensivity of signal recepon use + / - buon on the side of the unit. The level of signal
suppression can be selected in the range 0-9. The displayed numbers indicate the sensivity reducon
in the different radar bands. The example displayed above indicates that the X Band sensivity is
reduced by 50%, K Band sensivity reduced by 20% and Ka Band sensivity is not reduced at all (0%
reducon).
Le speed seng indicates the speed below which the radar recepon of the detector will be complete-
ly disabled (in example above 20 mph). No signals from police radar or false signals from automac door
openers will be reported.
The right speed seng indicates the speed below which the detector will detect alerts in City mode
with reduced radar sensivity (in example above 40 mph).
+ / - buons on the right side of the detector will change the specific speed seng.
RECOMMENDATION “20” and “35”: The detector will not alert to any signal below 20 mph and will
operate with reduced radar recepon between 20 and 35 mph. Maximum detector sensivity will be
achieved above 35 mph.
Seng City and AutoCity sensivity (this opon is available only in City or AutoCity Mode): By means of
the Middle buon you can select the radar band for eding.

The detector lets you mark known false alert areas so that you will not receive audio alerts in the future
at the marked locaon. The detector stores the GPS coordinates as well as radar band, radar frequency
and signal strength and compares it each me with the actual signal received. If the received signal at
the lockout locaon is different from the saved signal in terms of frequency and/or signal strength the
detector automacally unmutes and you will be alerted by audio again.
The display will show the band and signal strength and a small “L” icon in front of the radar band leer
indicates that the area is locked out. You can then either ignore the alert or delete the previously saved
locked out and re-save the new one.
To set a GPS lockout press the middle buon during an alert for 2 seconds. The detector will state “Lock-
out started” and will complete the process by stang “False alert area added”. To manually unlock the
detector press the middle buon for 2 seconds in a locked out area. You can also delete all lockouts in
the menu.
