LONG RANGE RADAR/LASER DETECTOR

DETAILED USER’S MANUAL

DFR7

DFR7 OVERVIEW

The DFR7 is a top of the line Radar Detector with a built-in GPS feature. With the DFR7, you can mark

geographical points where you commonly encounter radar transmissions. These can be school zones, red-light

cameras, and places where police frequently monitor traffic. You can mark these points so the detector will

announce “User mark ahead” when you approach them. Among other announcements, the Voice Notification

feature lets you know when you are approaching a radar and what type of radar it is (red light, speed, etc).

FEATURES

• Super Long Range Laser Radar Detection

• Voice Notifications

• Radar band frequency displays

• GPS for Red Light and Speed camera locations

• Easy to read OLED display

• User Mark set and voice notification

• Advanced K band filter

• Spectre I and IV undetectable

• Displays Signal Strength and Vehicle Battery Voltage

• Max. Speed Warning System

INSTALL AND TURN ON DFR7

You can mount the DFR7 on the windshield (bracket included) or on the dashboard (hook and loop tape

included).

INSTALL/POWER ON

Windshield

When you mount the DFR7 on the windshield, mount it in the middle of the windshield between the driver and

passenger. Be sure there are no obstructions and that there is a clear view through the back window.

1. Attach the rubber suction cups to the bracket and push the cups firmly onto the windshield.

2. Slide the unit onto the bracket until it clicks into place.

3. Plug the power cord RJ11 connector into the DFR7 and plug the cigarette lighter adapter into the vehicle’s

cigarette lighter.

4. The DFR7 automatically turns on and runs through a self test cycle.

Release the DFR7 from the bracket by pressing the Eject key on top of the detector.

Dashboard

The same types of mounting requirements for the windshield apply for mounting the unit on the dashboard.

1. Attach the unit to the dashboard using the hook and loop fastener tape.

2. Plug the power cord RJ11 connector into the DFR7 and plug the cigarette lighter adapter into the vehicle’s

cigarette lighter.

3. The DFR7 automatically turns on and runs through a self test cycle.

Pull the bracket from the dashboard, separating the hook and loop tape.

HIGHWAY VS CITY MODE

Radar detectors operate with two sensitivity levels. These levels determine the types of signals and signal ranges

(bands) detected. Highway mode is the most sensitive level while City mode is the least sensitive. If the X band

is left on in City mode, a radar detector can pick up many X band signals (such as garage door openers) that

generate false alerts. The DFR7 turns off the X band for City mode. When you are on the highway, there is less

chance of picking up X band false alerts, so the DFR7 keeps the X band on in Highway mode.

Press and hold both

VOL +

and

VOL –

for at least 1 second to alternate between HIGHWAY and CITY mode.

POP MODE

In POP mode, the DFR7 can detect short burst from radars that are too fast for many other detectors to catch.

You can turn POP mode on and off in the Menu system.

SCAN DISPLAY

A small dot on the screen indicates that the unit is scanning for signals. This dot travels back and forth in the

middle of the screen. You can turn this display on and off in the Menu system.

MUTE MEMORY

Use Mute Memory to mute known areas of false alarms (such as department store automatic doors). The DFR7

remembers where you muted the audio (GPS location) and the frequency you muted. It will automatically

mute when you travel to that location and the saved frequency is detected; however, if a different frequency is

detected, the DFR7 alerts to that different frequency.

When you press

MUTE/DIM

or the MUTE button on the charger to mute audio for a specific location, Mute On

displays. While Mute On displays, press

MUTE/DIM

or the MUTE button on the charger again to save that GPS

location to memory. Mute Memory displays on the screen.

DFR7 stores up to 100 Mute Memory points.

To delete Mute Memory points, press

MUTE/DIM

or the MUTE button on the charger while Mute Memory

displays. The DFR7 displays a delete confirmation message; press

MUTE/DIM

or the MUTE button on the

charger again to confirm. You can also delete Mute Memory points from Menus/Delete All Mute?

MAINTENANCE

MAINTAINING THE EQUIPMENT

The DFR7 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 DFR7’s firmware and database periodically. Go to www.

unidensupport.com, find your model, and check if you have the latest firmware.

TROUBLESHOOTING

IF... TRY THIS...

The unit won’t turn on Check the connections. Be sure they are all secure.

No display or audio. x If no display, check the connections. Be sure they are all

secure.

x If no audio, check if Voice is turned off.

The unit alarms when the vehicle hits bumps. Check the connections. Be sure they are all secure.

The unit alarms briefly in the same location but

no radar source was in view.

There may be a motion sensor or house alarm in use within

range.

The DFR7 did not alert when a police car was in

view.

• The officer may not have radar/laser units turned on.

• Check that the band is turned on. Press

and cycle

through the options to get to the bands. If the band is

turned off, the OLED will show OFF. Turn the band on.

The vehicle starts but the DFR7 does not turn
