To start using your Radenso Pro-M radar detector follow these easy steps:
1. Slide the windshield mounting bracket into the QuickMount slot at the front of the radar
detector.
2. Plug the small end of the power cable into the power jack on the Radenso Pro-M on the left
side and connect the large plug with the 12V power socket in your car.
3. Press the red button at the large end of the power cable (at the 12V socket) to turn the power
cable on. The button will light up and indicate if Power is on.
4. Press the Power button (left button on top of unit) for 2 seconds to turn on Radenso PRO M.
Unit will power up with the start-up sequence. After a few seconds, the Radenso Pro-M will
notify you with a voice message that the satellite is connected.
5. Adjust the volume level by pressing the volume buttons “+2 or ”-” located on the right side of
the unit.
Radenso Pro-M is now ready to go. If you want to change any of the default settings of your unit
please refer to the next pages.
The Radenso Pro-M is one of the most powerful radar detectors in the industry. It’s designed to
protect the driver from speeding tickets/fines. The Radenso Pro-M communicates with the driver
in English and it’s main functions are the detection of microwave radars (X / K / Ka narrow bands),
laser guns, red light cameras and fixed- speed cameras (GPS database).
Notifications:
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”.

Needs unobstructed view of
the road ahead. Do not mount
behind metal coated windshields or wipers.
The Radenso Pro-M windshield mount allows a firm and secure installation of the radar
detector at the windshield of your vehicle. Locate an area at the windshield that enables an
unobtrusive installation with clear view to the road
ahead.
1. Place the nipple of the suction cups in the large hole of
the bracket and
pull the suction cup into the small Rubber Damper
hole to secure them. Push the rubber damper
into the hole in the middle of the bracket.
2. Attach the windshield mount to the desired area of the windshield. Make sure it is in a level
position parallel to the road ahead. To adjust the angle if necessary, gently push or pull on the
bracket to bend it. DO NOT use the detector to bend the
bracket.
3. Insert the windshield mount into the slot at the front of
the detector until it is locked in position.
For firm and secure adhesion to the windshield, clean the windshield and suction cups before
usar installing.
4. Plug the small end of the power cable into the detector (located on the left side) and the large
end into your vehicle’s 12V ACC socket.
5. To remove Radenso Pro-M from the windshield press the release button on top of the unit
and slide the unit off the mount.
Left button: MENU / ON-OFF.
Short press: You will enter into setup menu. During an alert pressing the button will mute the
volume. The next alarm will be reported again in the standard volume.
Long press: Turn ON / OFF Radenso Pro-M.
Short press: You can change the brightness of the display -> Bright -> Dim -> Smart Dark -> Full
Dark.
Bright: Brightest display setting.
Dim: Slightly dimmed display.
Smart Dark: Display is deactivated but will come on with text warning during an alert.
Full Dark: Display is completely deactivated. Only voice and tone alerts are active.
Long Press: Holding the button for 2 seconds during an obvious false alert will lockout the
location in the future. The signal will then be reported and the alarm suppressed when passing
the market location again. You can reactivate the location again by holding the button when
approaching the marked location.
During start up: Pressing and holding the button during startup will reset the Radenso Pro-M to
factory reset settings and will display the uploaded Firmware version.
Short press: You can scroll between Highway / City / Auto City modes. In City or Auto City modes
the sensitivity of X / K / Ka bands can be reduced according to user preference.
Long Press: Add your own POI GPS point for future alarms.
Short press: Changing alert volume of Radenso Pro-M or change program options while in Menu
Mode.
Press left button to enter Menu Mode.
Press left button again to go from one menu option to the next.
Press VOLUME + or – button (on the right side of detector) to change your setting within the
category. To save the changed selection simply wait a few seconds without pressing any button.
The unit will display “Setting Completed” to confirm your selection. Alternatively, you can leave
the menu and save the setting by tapping the right button.
The AutoCity driving mode allows the setting of minimum alert detection speed for signal
suppression and signal filtering resulting in significantly reduced false alerts. Select AutoCity in
Setting Mode.
Setting AutoCity speed: (feature selectable only if Setting Mode is set
to AutoCity): Tapping the Middle button lets you select the speed for editing
Left speed setting indicates the speed below which the radar reception of the detector will be
complete ly disabled (in example above 20 mph). No signals from
police radar or false signals from automatic door openers will be reported.
The right speed setting indicates the speed below which the detector will detect alerts in City
mode with reduced radar sensitivity (in example above 40 mph).
+ / - buttons on the right side of the detector will change the specific speed setting.
RECOMMENDATION “20” and “35”: The detector will not alert to any signal below 20 mph and
will operate with reduced radar reception between 20 and 35 mph. Maximum detector
sensitivity will be achieved above 35 mph.
Setting City and AutoCity sensitivity (this option is available only in City or AutoCity Mode): By
means of the Middle button you can select the radar band for editing.
To change the sensitivity of signal reception use + / - button on the
side of the unit. The level of signal suppression can be selected in the range 0-9. The displayed
numbers indicate the sensitivity reduction in the different radar bands. The example displayed
above indicates that the X Band sensitivity is reduced by 50%, K Band sensitivity reduced by 20%
and Ka Band sensitivity is not reduced at all (0% reduction).
The detector lets you mark known false alert areas so that you will not receive audio alerts in the
future at the marked location. The detector stores the GPS coordinates as well as radar band,
radar frequency and signal strength and compares it each time with the actual signal received. If
the received signal at the lockout location is different from the saved signal in terms of frequency
and/or signal strength the detector automatically 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
letter 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 button during an alert for 2 seconds. The detector will state
“Lockout started” and will complete the process by stating “False alert area added”. To manually
unlock the detector press the middle button for 2 seconds in a locked out area. You can also
delete all lockouts in the menu.
