Open the main menu then select [RADAR INSTALLA-

Preset the radar as follows:
• Interference Rejector (IR): 2

Set the value so that noise just disappears from the screen. The setting range is -32

When using the number keys, the indication is first selected as a whole. At this time,
you can toggle between plus "+" or minus "-". Press the 8 key for "-", press the 2 key
for "+". If single digits are highlighted, toggle is not possible. In this case, press the
CANCEL/TRAILS key to re-highlight the whole indication.
