Find a suitable mounting position for the detector,
ensuring that the front of the unit has a clear
view of the road ahead and is unobstructed by
any metallic objects and that there is a sufficient
mounting area to attach the 'L' shaped fixing
bracket. The S120R needs to be mounted in as
horizontal a position as possible so that it is looking
directly down the road ahead.
We recommend that you mount the detector either
behind the vehicle's grille (if the openings of the
grille are at least 10mm in diameter) or within an air
intake at the front of the vehicle. The S120R can be
mounted anywhere at the front of the vehicle, but
for optimum performance we suggest you mount
it as close to the number plate of the vehicle as
possible.

Connecting the iRadar S120R
The S120R is powered by wiring it directly to your
vehicles 12v electrical system using the cable
supplied Firstly connect the positive side of the
cable (Red) to a switched 12v ignition supply.
This is a live that is On when the ignition is
switched On and Off when the ignition is Off.
The negative side of the lead (black) should
be connected to a negative ground, so can be
attached to any metal portion of the vehicles
frame. The LED will blink red if the power
connection has been completed successfully. This
LED can be located near to the point where the
power cable enters the rear of the device.
It is not advisable to connect the S120R directly
to the vehicle battery as after long periods
of vehicle inactivity the vehicle battery may
become discharged.
