Cobra XRS 9630 Operating Instructions

To install the Cobra XRS 9630, mount the unit on the windshield using the provided suction cups. Ensure it has a clear view of the road. Connect the power cord to the unit and plug it into the vehicle's lighter socket. Adjust the angle for optimal detection.
First, check the power cord connection to ensure it is secure. Verify that the lighter socket is functioning by testing it with another device. Inspect the fuse in the power cord and replace it if necessary.
The unit should emit audible alerts and display visual signals when it detects radar or laser signals. You can test it by driving near known radar sources or using a radar detector tester.
Regularly clean the detector's lenses with a soft cloth to ensure clear signal reception. Update the firmware if updates are available. Inspect the power cord and mount for wear and tear.
Visit the Cobra website to check for firmware updates. Download the update and follow the instructions provided to install it on your device, usually via a USB connection to your computer.
Check the device settings to ensure it's configured correctly for your area. Adjust the sensitivity settings to reduce false alerts. Consider using the City mode if you frequently drive in urban areas.
The Cobra XRS 9630 is designed to detect most common radar and laser signals used by law enforcement. However, detection is not guaranteed for all signal types or under all conditions.
To reset the device, press and hold the 'Program' button until the unit beeps. This will restore the factory settings, clearing all custom configurations.
The device features Highway and City modes to adjust sensitivity. Highway mode provides maximum detection range, while City mode reduces sensitivity to minimize false alerts in urban areas.
Ensure the device is mounted high on the windshield with a clear view of the road. Avoid obstructions like windshield banners or tint strips. Regularly clean the lens for maximum signal reception.
