  • Page 3: Operation Of The Device

    These products also support the stealth installation, as the communication cable that connects the KIYO GPS U1 with these modules comes with a LED indicator and an extra speaker socket.

  • Page 4: Applicable Law

    The KIYO GPS U1 supports the stealth installation, which means that it can be installed into- or under the dashboard. In such cases, the optional GPS antenna ensures the stable connection to the satellites. If the device is installed under-or behind the dashboard, but it is not loud enough, the additional speaker and the communication cable can increase the volume.

  • Page 6 b) Finding the perfect location for the device For the best efficiency, ensure that the logoed side of the device has a clear view to the sky. Be warned that metallic parts might interfere with the connection between the Detector and the satellites, there- fore make sure that there are no such parts above the device.
  • Page 7 Stealth installation Because the device displays the threat and gives a voice signal in the selected language at the same time, it may be installed into hidden compartments. There are many places where it can be hidden, for example, in the glove-box, in the car’s center console, into the com- partment of the armrest, or even below the dashboard.

This cable connects the device with the optional laser module, which makes it able to detect laser-based speed traps as well.
  • Page 9 The external GPS antenna can be connected into the GPS ANT socket, which is essential when the control unit is stealth installed or if the windshield is metallised and blocks the GPS signals. In the latter case, the external GPS antenna can be installed behind the front bumper as well.

  • Page 21 ATTACHING THE RADAR DETECTOR MODULE (Additional equipment, the basic package does not include it) 1. PURPOSE OF THE ATTACHABLE RADAR DETECTOR MODULE The purpose of the Radar Detector Module is to increase the effec- tiveness of the GPS Detector, by detecting the mobile radar speed traps.
  • Page 22 closing on a speed trap that is in the GPS database. By enabling the Smart Radar Activation feature, the number of false alarms can be decreased, because the device will only signal upon closing on a speed trap that is in the GPS database. This function can only be used in Hungary! 3.

  • Page 25 CONNECTING THE GPS DETECTOR TO THE EXTERNAL LASER MODULE (additional equipment, the basic package does not contain it) 1. PURPOSE OF THE LASER MODULE With the external Laser Module, the GPS detector will be able to detect - in some cases even jam - mobile laser-based speed traps and fixed cameras as well.
  • Page 26 3. ACTIVATING THE LASER MODULE After installing a compatible external laser module (based on the instructions of that given equipment’s user manual), connect one end of the communication cable into the COM socket of the GPS detector, then connect the other end into the central unit of the laser module. If the laser module has been installed correctly and it is connected to a power supply, the cigar lighter power cable of the GPS detector will not be needed, as it will be powered by the laser module itself.
  • Page 27 4. SIGNALS OF THE LASER MODULE Modes: If the devices are correctly connected, after initialization the GPS detec- tor will state the chosen state of the laser module. The availble modes are the following: „active”, „passive” and after some time of inactivity, „parking assist”...
