Power Connection
To power V10, plug the small end of the
SmartCord, (telephone-type connector)
into the modular jack on V10’s right side,
and plug the lighter plug adapter into your
vehicle’s lighter socket or accessory socket.
V10 operates on 12 volts DC negative
ground only. The lighter plug provided is a
standard size and will work in most
vehicles. However, some vehicles may
require the optional European sleeve
to ensure a snug fit. If so, simply call our
service department to order one. This
sleeve slides over the SmartCord’s lighter
plug adapter. Of course, your lighter socket
must be clean and properly connected for
proper operation.
NOTE: Depending on your vehicle,
the lighter socket power may either be
continuously on, or it may be switched
on and off with your ignition switch.
Optional power cords
See the Accessories section for details.
Mounting Location
WARNING: Beltronics cannot
anticipate the many ways the V10 can
be mounted. It is important that you
mount V10 where it will not impair
your view nor present a hazard in
case of an accident.
Where to mount V10
For optimum detection performance, we
recommend the following:
• Using the Windshield QuickMount,
mount your V10 level, and high enough on
your front windshield to provide a clear
view of the road from the front and rear.
• Mount V10 away from windshield
wipers, other solid objects, and heavily
tinted areas that might obstruct the radar
antenna or laser lens.
Caution!
A few vehicles (including some Porsches)
have windshields with a soft anti-lacerative
coating on the inside surface. Use of
suction cups will permanently mar this
coating. Consult your dealership or the
vehicle owner’s manual to determine if
your windshield has this coating.
User’s Tip
You can leave the QuickMount bracket in
place on your windshield, and easily remove
the V10 by pressing the adjustment button
and sliding the V10 off the mount. Again, be
sure to position the bracket where it won’t
present a hazard in the event of an
accident. Additional mounts are available.
Windshield QuickMount
V10’s QuickMount windshield bracket is
designed for unobtrusive and hassle-free
mounting.
1 Depress the QuickMount button on
the top of the V10 (by the word
BELTRONICS) and slide the QuickMount
bracket into the slot until it is locked into
the position which best fits the angle of
your windshield (there are four settings
available). For extremely horizontal
or extremely sloped windshields,
the QuickMount bracket can
be bent.
To ensure that the suction cups adhere to
the windshield firmly, be sure to keep both
your windshield and the suction cups
clean.
2 To adjust the V10 on your windshield,
use the QuickMount adjustment button
located on the top of the V10, and slide the
V10 forward or backward to obtain a level
horizontal position.
When installed and adjusted properly, the
back top edge of the V10 should rest solidly
against your windshield.
