User Speed Limit; Quiet Ride; Maintenance; Maintaining The Equipment - Uniden R3 User Manual

USER SPEED LIMIT

When you set a speed limit thorough the menus, the R3 sends an alarm tone if your speed exceeds that speed
limit setting. If that happens, the unit announces and displays over speed warnings.

QUIET RIDE

This function mutes X and K band radar alarms to zero volume when you drive under a speed
menu (up to 90 mph). Q-Ride flashes in green on the LCD.
Ka and Laser bands are NOT muted. Mute Memory overrides Quiet Ride.

MAINTENANCE

MAINTAINING THE EQUIPMENT

The R3 requires very little physical maintenance. Wipe it with a soft cloth to keep dust from accumulating. Check
the power cord connections to keep them clean and free of corrosion.

UPDATING THE FIRMWARE/DATABASE

Uniden recommends that you update your R3 firmware and database periodically. Go to www.unidensupport.
com, find your model, and check if you have the latest firmware.
