For the easiest, trouble-free installation, install the interface first and wire it to a 12-volt switched circuit. Then, before installing the other components, plug all of them into the interface and power up the unit to confirm proper operation. 1 It is recommended that you have a professional install your new ESCORT MAX Ci . Installation of this system requires experience and expertise in automotive electronics. If you are unfamiliar with automotive electronics, car audio specialists and many car dealers can install your ESCORT MAX Ci for you. 2 Attempting to install this product without expertise in automotive electronics installation can cause personal injury or damage to your vehicle. 3 If your vehicle is damaged during installation its safety systems may be compromised, which could cause personal injury or property damage. 4 Improper installation may void ESCORT MAX CIs warranty. Performance Warning To get the best performance possible, the mounting location of the radar receiver is critical. Although radar signals will pass through some types of plastic, mounting the radar receiver so that it has a clear view of the road will ensure maximum warning. Since Laser signals will not pass through objects, including most plastics, it is critical that the Laser Shifters are mounted perfectly level and have an unobstructed view of the road. Installation Tips While following the steps throughout this manual, please refer to the following recommendations for a professional, trouble-
free installation:
1 Determine the best location for the radar receiver. The best location is typically under the bumper, or inside the front grill of the vehicle. For the best radar performance, install the radar receiver horizontally, with a clear view of the road. 2 Entry points into the interior may be located behind the plastic liner in the wheel well, fuse box, or unused grommets. 3 There are often many existing entry points at the rear of the vehicle as well:
Gaskets behind license plates, around illumination lamps, and near trunk lid hinges. Tail light wiring gaskets are often easily accessible and large enough to add cables. 4 If there are no suitable openings, it will be necessary to drill a hole through the firewall:
a. Thoroughly investigate all locations before drilling any holes! Ensure no wires, hoses, or other vehicle components will be damaged. b. On vehicles with automatic transmissions, there is often a location for mounting a clutch pedal. This location is typically an ideal location to drill. c. Before drilling, cover the surface being drilled with masking tape to prevent damage to the anti-corrosion coating in the event the drill bit slips. d. Drill a 13/32" or 7/16" hole. 5 When pulling the inline grommet to the entry point, apply rubbing alcohol to a section of the cable to reduce friction and quickly pull the grommet along the length. 6 The cables of units mounted at the rear of the vehicle can generally be routed through the trunk compartment and concealed under trim panels quite easily. If necessary, the cables can also be routed under the vehicle and through an opening in the firewall. Be sure to secure cables away from moving parts and hot surfaces. 7 A quality crimper for modular connectors can be used to cut cables to length and replace the connector. Removing the connectors may also make it easier to enter the vehicles interior through existing openings. Note:
Only an exact replacement for the standard connector can be used. Do not attempt to cut the wires unless the proper connector and crimping tools are available. Connectors cannot be reused. Do not cut the cable too short! Provide enough cable to route to the Interface and add a couple extra feet to ease installation Install the new connector such that its locking tab is on the same side as the color coded stripe on the cable. Do not attempt to cut the cable and splice the wires together. 8 When drilling or cutting interior trim panels
(for instance, when installing the Concealed Installation Alert Indicator or the optional Display Bezel), first cover the surface of the panel with masking tape to prevent accidental scratches. 4 5 A Interface B Front Radar Receiver White Stripe Front Radar Receiver (Continued) D Front Laser ShifterMax Sensors 1 Determine the best location for the Radar Receiver. The best location is typically under the bumper or inside the front grille of the vehicle. For the best radar performance install the Radar Receiver flat, horizontally, not on its side. 2 Using the supplied U-shaped bracket and the right-angle mounting bracket, mark the mounting location. Drill pilot holes in the vehicle if necessary. 3 Mount the Radar Receiver using the supplied hardware. It is recommended that the Radar Receiver is secured to the brackets first, and then the brackets and Receiver mounted to the vehicle. 4 Slide the heatshrink onto the Radar Receiver cable then plug into the harness and route the cable toward the interior of the vehicle. Shrink the heatshrink onto the inline connector and secure the cable with zip-ties. Although waterproof, it is best to locate the inline connector in a dry area protected from moving parts, road debris, and hot surfaces such as the radiator and radiator hoses. 1 Install the Interface under the dash using supplied zip-ties. Note:
Do not mount Interface inside vehicles engine compartment!
2 Connect black wire (-) to ground, and red-striped wire (+) to a switched 12-volt supply. (If ESCORT MAX Ci is left in the on position, it will automatically power on and off with the ignition). 3 Front Radar Receiver, ShifterMax Bridge Box, Display and Control Modules, GPS Antenna, Concealed Alert LED, Radio Mute Cable, and optional Rear Radar Receiver* all plug into the Interface. 4 It is recommended that after the Interface is installed and connected to power, all other components are plugged in and tested for proper operation before completing the installation. IMPORTANT! When using optional Rear ShifterMax sensors* ensure DIP switches 3 and 4 are moved down to the REAR SHIFTER position. See the Interface illustration on pg 9.
* included with ESCORT MAX Ci 360 5 Find a suitable entry point into the vehicles interior. Refer to the Installation Tips section. 6 Feed the harness into the vehicles interior and to the Interface. Plug into the connector labeled Front Receiver. 7 If entering through a drilled hole, pull the grommet on the harness until the end sticks through the hole. From inside the vehicle, pull grommet through until it seals against the outer surface. C ShifterMax Bridge Box 1 The Bridge Box is weatherproof. To limit the number of cables routed through the firewall, we recommend installing the Bridge Box inside of the engine compartment. 2 Slide the included heatshrink onto the Bridge Box Interface cable then plug into the cable extending from the Bridge Box labeled Interface and route the cable toward the interior of the vehicle. Shrink the heatshrink onto the inline connector and secure the cable with zip-ties. Although waterproof, it is best to locate the inline connector in a dry area protected from moving parts, road debris, and hot surfaces such as the radiator and radiator hoses. Positioning Sensors Install each sensor halfway between the side and the center of the vehicle. For optimal performance sensors need to be completely unobstructed, not behind a grille, level and facing straight forward (rearward if installing optional rear sensors*). Make sure that each sensor is parallel with the road
(using supplied bubble level). Note:
Vehicle must be positioned on a flat surface in order to position sensors parallel with the road. Make sure that sensors have an unobstructed view of the road so the unit can function properly. Do not install sensors behind a solid surface, which would block laser transmission/reception. 6 7 Installation Schematic Overview Interface stripe or shrink) Letter References For Components (Color Coded Connections To Interface) A B Front Radar Receiver (White Stripe) C Front ShifterMax Sensors (plug into ports 1 & 2 on ShifterMax Bridge Box) D ShifterMax Bridge Box (plugs into Interface using supplied cable with no E GPS Antenna (Yellow Shrink) F Display Module (Orange Shrink) G Control Module (Blue Shrink) H Concealed Alert Indicator (Gray Shrink) I Rear Radar Receiver (optional, included with ESCORT MAX Ci 360) J Rear ShifterMax Sensors (optional, included with ESCORT MAX Ci 360) D B I F G E H C C B D D ShifterMax Bridge Box A 1 The Bridge Box is weatherproof so it can be installed in the engine compartment or under the dash. 2 Connect Front ShifterMax Sensors to ports 1 and 2 of the Bridge Box. 3 Connect Rear ShifterMax Sensors to ports 3 and 4 of the Bridge Box. 4 The Bridge Box connects to the Interface using the supplied cable with a 6 pin modular plug on one end and a round shifter plug on the other end.

Blue Green Red Amber Speed Display ESCORT MAX Ci 360 displays your current speed just to the right of the Over Speed Alert setting (or the posted speed limit for your current location, if connected to ESCORT Live). If speed display is OFF, your battery voltage will be displayed in this location. Speed display ON:
Current speed Speed display OFF:
Battery voltage Cruise Alert While you are traveling below the specified Cruise Alert speed, all alerts will only sound a short double-beep. The alert will fully sound when you exceed the Cruise Alert speed. The factory default setting is 20 mph. Over Speed Alert You can set the Over Speed alert to notify you when you are traveling over a specified speed. When you travel above the speed threshold that you have set, the background display for your current speed will turn red and a voice prompt will announce that you have exceeded the set Over Speed limit. When using Escort Live with the ESCORT MAX Ci 360, the Over Speed setting is automatically set to the speed limit showing on the display. If no speed limit data is available from Escort Live, the Over Speed setting is used. The factory default setting is 70 mph. Meter Mode ESCORT MAX Ci 360 offers seven different settings for displaying information about alerts. Standard FR1 is the factory default meter mode setting. Standard The Standard meter mode provides only the band information and front signal strength information of a single alert. When radar is detected, the band
(X, K or Ka) and a bar graph of the signals strength are displayed. When laser is detected, the display will simply read Laser. If there are multiple alerts present, only the highest priority threat is displayed. Laser is the highest priority threat, followed by Ka, K, then X band radar. Standard FR1 The Standard FR1 meter mode (FR1 = Front and Rear signal strengths of 1 signal) displays the band of the highest priority threat along with a front and rear bar graph of its signal strength. The left bar graph shows the signal strength in front of the detector while the right bar graph shows the signal strength from the rear. If there are multiple alerts present, only the signal strength of the highest priority threat is displayed. Laser is the highest priority threat, followed by Ka, K, then X band radar. The number in between the bar graphs is the total number of alerts that are being detected. Standard FR2 The Standard FR2 meter mode (FR2 = Front and Rear signal strengths of 2 signals) displays the bands of the two highest priority threats along with a front and rear bar graph of their signal strengths. The left bar graph shows the signal strength in front of the detector while the right bar graph shows the signal strength from the rear. When using this meter mode the rear signal strength bar graph is always the opposite color of the selected display color. For instance, if blue is the display color, then the rear bar graph will be red. If there are multiple alerts present, only the signal strength of the two highest priority threats are displayed. Laser is the highest priority threat, followed by Ka, K, then X band radar. The number in between the bar graphs is the total number of alerts that are being detected. 8 9 Settings & Preferences Spec FR1 Expert FR The Spec FR1 meter mode (FR1 = Front and Rear signal strengths of 1 signal) displays the numeric frequency and band of the highest priority threat along with a front and rear bar graph of its signal strength. The left bar graph shows the signal in front of the detector while the right bar graph shows the signal strength from the rear. If there are multiple alerts present, only the signal strength of the highest priority threat is displayed. Laser is the highest priority threat, followed by Ka, K, then X band radar. The number in between the bar graphs is the total number of alerts that are being detected. Spec FR2 The Spec FR2 meter mode (FR2 = Front and Rear signal strengths of 2 signals) displays the numeric frequency of the highest priority threat and the bands of the two highest priority threats along with a front and rear bar graph of their signal strengths. The left bar graph shows the signal in front of the detector while the right bar graph shows the signal strength from the rear. When using this meter mode the rear signal strength bar graph is always the opposite color of the selected display color. For instance, if blue is the display color, then the rear bar graph will be red. If there are multiple alerts present, only the signal strength of the two highest priority threats are displayed. Laser is the highest priority threat, followed by Ka, K, then X band radar. The number in between the bar graphs is the total number of alerts that are being detected. Expert FR meter mode (FR = Front and Rear signal strengths) simultaneously tracks up to four radar alerts displaying each alerts band along with a bar graph of their front and rear signal strengths. When using this meter mode the rear signal strength bar graph is always the opposite color of the selected display color. In the above image, a Ka band, two K bands, and an X band signal are being detected. The X band alert is grey to show that it is a locked out false alert. For more information about locking out false alerts see the GPS Filtering/TrueLock section. Expert FR meter mode can help you spot a change in your normal driving environment (e.g., a traffic radar unit being operated in an area where there are normally other signals present). Simple Simple messages replace actual bands and signal strengths or frequencies. Caution is used when an alert is received while you are traveling below your current Cruise Alert setting (or posted speed limit for your current location when connected to ESCORT Live). Slow Down is displayed when an alert is received while you are traveling above the current Cruise Alert setting (or posted speed limit of your current location, when connected to ESCORT Live). Alert Tones Standard The factory default Standard alert tones uses a Geiger counter-type sound to indicate the signal strength and type of radar signal being encountered. When you encounter radar, a distinct audible alert will sound and will increase as the signal gets stronger. This allows you to judge the distance from the signal source without taking your eyes off of the road. Each band has a distinct tone for easy identification:
X band = beep tone K band = brap tone Ka band = double-brap tone Laser = solid brap tone Pop = solid brap tone Standard Plus Features the Standard alert tones outlined above for the primary alert, plus double-beep tones for additional alerts. Mild Mild alert tones offer softer, simpler alert tones that are less obtrusive to the driving experience:
X band, K band, Ka band and POP =
Doorbell chime Low signal strength = Double chime High signal strength = Triple chime If alert remains in area more than 15 seconds =
Single chime (as a reminder) Laser = Solid brap tone Since laser signals are a possible threat no matter how weak, laser alerts are always full strength. AutoMute Your ESCORT MAX Ci 360 also includes ESCORTs patented AutoMute feature. Once ESCORT MAX Ci 360 alerts you to a radar encounter at your selected volume level, it automatically reduces the volume to the selected AutoMute level. This keeps you informed without the annoyance of a continuous full-volume alert. If you prefer, you can turn the AutoMute feature off. AutoLearn The AutoLearn feature analyzes (over time) the source of radar signals by location and frequency. This allows ESCORT MAX Ci 360 to determine if a fixed location signal is a real threat or a false one. If it determines that the signal is an automatic door opener, motion sensor, etc., it automatically locks out this source at this particular location. A Stored message will appear on the display when a signal has been automatically locked out. AutoLearn typically needs to encounter the exact frequency in the same location approximately three times to lock it out. Since some door openers are turned on and off routinely, some variations may occur. ESCORT MAX Ci 360 will also unlearn signals to protect you from locking out real threats. If a particular signal is no longer present at a location that was previously locked out, ESCORT MAX Ci 360 will unlock that signal. If you prefer, you can turn the AutoLearn feature off. GPS Filter/TrueLock ESCORT MAX Ci 360 is equipped with a TrueLock GPS Filter to store and lock out, or ignore, fixed location false alerts in its memory. Common sources of fixed location false alerts are storefront automatic door openers and motion sensors. The TrueLock GPS Filter will not lock out moving false alerts that are commonly caused by vehicles blind spot monitoring and collision avoidance systems. 10 11 Settings & Preferences GPS Filter/TrueLock continued Locking Out False Alerts To manually lock out a fixed location false alert
(X band, K band or laser only), press the MUTE button three times during an alert. Pressing the first time will silence the audio. Pressing a second time will generate a prompt on the display that will read Lockout? Press a third time to confirm you want to lock this signal out by location and frequency. A Stored message will be displayed. Once a signal has been stored, ESCORT MAX Ci 360 will not audibly alert the next time you approach this area but will display the locked-out alert in grey. Locked Out Alert To unlock a signal that has already been stored, simply press the MUTE button twice while receiving the locked out alert. The display will read Unlock? when pressing MUTE the first time. Press the MUTE button again to unlock it from memory. The display will read Unlocked to confirm your action. Note: When the GPS Filter is set to OFF, you do not have access to ESCORT MAX Ci 360s other GPS-
enabled features (e.g., Defender Database alerts, marking locations, etc.). AutoPower This feature automatically turns off ESCORT MAX Ci 360 after a set period of time to save unnecessary drain on your battery. This is especially useful if your vehicle has a constant-power ignition. To turn ESCORT MAX Ci 360 on again you must press the power button. Note: If AutoPower is on, to save screen life the display screen goes blank after 30 minutes without moving. The display screen will turn on automatically after you reach 10MPH. Band Enables In the factory default setting the suggested radar and laser bands for North America are monitored and sources of some common false alerts are rejected. It is highly recommended that you use your ESCORT MAX Ci 360 in this mode. If you modify Band Enables then this setting will show Modified. The ESCORT MAX Ci 360 will also notify you during the startup sequence with an audible alert, and associated text message stating which bands have changed from the factory default settings. WARNING: Do not turn off any bands unless you are absolutely certain there are no traffic radar guns using that specific band in your area. Shifters ESCORT MAX Ci 360 is equipped with a total of four (2 front, 2 rear) Laser ShifterMax sensors. These highly sensitive laser transceivers will detect a laser signal and, when Shifting is enabled, will respond (or transmit) a pulsed signal back in order to Shift or confuse the targeting laser gun. The MUTE button can be used to manually shut off Laser Shifting once you have checked your speed. Since some laser guns provide jamming codes for the officer, this can be useful to avoid any undue attention. Simply press the MUTE button twice during a laser alert. All Shifters will cease to transmit and the display will change from Shifting to Laser. Laser indicates that you are receiving a laser alert in Receive Only mode. The Shifters will remain in the Receive Only mode for approximately sixty seconds, giving you time to pass the speed trap. Once this time has expired a double beep tone will be given, indicating that the Shifters are now back in Shifting mode. Marker Enables In the factory default setting, the suggested fixed location alerts are reported. It is highly recommended that you use your ESCORT MAX Ci 360 in this mode. If you modify Marker Enables then this setting will show Modified and only the Markers that you have selected are reported. Marking Locations The MRK button allows you to mark a specific location and label it for future reference. Once marked, ESCORT MAX Ci 360 will provide an alert when you reach this area again. Red light camera Red light &
speed camera Speed camera Speed trap Other ESCORT MAX Ci 360 gives an advanced warning of upcoming markers at the following distances:
Red light cameras: 250 ft or 10 seconds Red light & speed cameras: 250 ft or 10 seconds Speed cameras: 500 ft when traveling below 55 mph; 1,000 ft when traveling above 55 mph Speed traps: 0.3 mi or approximately 1,584 ft Other: 500 ft when traveling below 55 mph; 1,000 ft when traveling above 55 mph To mark a location, press the MRK button. The display will read Mark? Press MRK again to bring up a menu of markers to choose from. Repeatedly press MUTE to scroll through the markers then press MRK to select the marker that you wish to use at this location. The display will read Marked!
Air Patrol locations cannot be marked by the user. Note: When a location is marked the first time, you must travel at least 1 mile away from that location to receive an alert when you return to the area. To unmark a location, touch the MRK button when you are receiving a marked-location alert. The display will read Unmark? Touch the MRK button again to confirm. The display will read Unmarked!
Clear Locations At some point, you may wish to clear some of the data in ESCORT MAX Ci 360s database. This may include any of the following: Defender Database data, Marked locations or false alert Lockouts. To clear all data in ESCORT MAX Ci 360s database. select Format then press MUTE to confirm . Restore factory Settings To restore ESCORT MAX Ci 360 to its original factory settings, press and hold MRK and BRT while turning the power on. A Restored message will display, acknowledging the reset. Serial Number and Software Version To view your ESCORT MAX Ci 360s serial number and software revision, press and hold the MRK and SEN buttons while powering on the detector. 12 13 Understanding Your Detector Although the ESCORT MAX Ci 360 has a comprehensive warning system and this Manual is as complete as we can make it, only experience will teach you what to expect from your detector and how to interpret what it tells you. The specific type of radar being used, the type of transmission
(continuous or instant-on) and the location of the radar source affects the radar alerts you receive. The following examples will give you an introduction to understanding the detector warning system for radar, laser and safety alerts. Alert Explanation Detector begins to sound slowly with front arrow displayed. Rate of alert increases until it becomes a solid tone. The signal meter ramps accordingly. Detector emits short alerts for a few seconds with front arrow displayed then falls silent, only to briefly alert and fall silent again. Detector suddenly sounds a continuous tone for the appropriate band received. Detector sends a brief laser alert with all direction arrows displayed. Detector receives weak signals with rear direction arrow displayed. Signals may be a little stronger as you pass large, roadside objects. Signals increase in frequency. Detector alerts slowly for a while with front direc-
tion arrow displayed then abruptly jumps to a strong alert. You are approaching a continuous radar source aimed in your direction. An instant-on radar source is being used ahead of you and out of your view. An instant-on radar or laser source is being used nearby. This kind of alert requires immediate attention. Laser is being used in the area. Because laser is inherently difficult to detect, any laser alert may indicate a source very close by. A moving patrol car with continuous radar is over-
taking you from behind. Because these signals are reflected (reflections are increased by large objects), they may or may not eventually melt into a solid point, even when the patrol car is directly behind you. You are approaching a radar unit concealed by a hill or an obstructed curve. Alert Explanation Detector alerts intermittently with front direction arrow displayed. Rate and strength of alerts may be consistent or vary wildly. A patrol car is traveling in front of you with a radar source aimed forward. Because signals are sometimes reflected off of large objects and sometimes not, the alerts may seem inconsistent. Detector alerts intermittently with front direction arrow displayed. Rate and strength of signal increases with each alert. A patrol car is approaching from the other direction, sampling traffic with instant-on radar. Such alerts should be taken seriously. Detector gives an X band alert intermittently with the front direction arrow quickly changing to side arrows then to the rear direction arrow. You are driving through an area populated with radar motion sensors (e.g., door openers or burglar alarms). Since these transmitters are usually contained inside buildings or aimed toward or away from you, they are typically not as strong or lasting as a real radar encounter. CAUTION: Overconfidence in an unfamiliar area can be dangerous. Likewise, if an alert in a commonly traveled area is suddenly stronger or on a different band than usual, speed radar may be set up nearby. 14 15 Because intrusion alarms and motion sensors often operate on the same frequency as X, and K-band radar, your detector will occasionally receive non-police radar signals. Since these X-Band transmitters are usually contained inside of a building, or aimed toward the ground, they will generally produce much weaker readings than will a true radar encounter. As you become familiar with the sources of these pseudo alarms in your daily driving, they will serve as confirmation that your devices radar detection abilities are fully operational. Understanding Your Detector How Radar Works Traffic radar, which consists of microwaves, travels in straight lines and is easily reflected by objects such as cars, trucks, even guardrails and overpasses. Radar works by directing its microwave beam down the road. As your vehicle travels into range, the microwave beam bounces off your car, and the radar antenna looks for the reflections. Using the Doppler Principle, the radar equipment then calculates your speed by comparing the frequency of the reflection of your car to the original frequency of the beam sent out. significant of these being that it typically can monitor only one target at a time. If there is more than one vehicle within range, it is up to the radar operator to decide which target is producing the strongest reflection. Since the strength of the reflection is affected by both the size of the vehicle and its proximity to the antenna, it is difficult for the radar operator to determine if the signal is from a sports car nearby or a semi-truck several hundred feet away. Traffic radar has limitations, the most Radar range also depends on the power of the radar equipment itself. The strength of the radar units beam diminishes with distance. The farther the radar has to travel, the less energy it has for speed detection. There are limitations to laser, however. Laser is much more sensitive to weather conditions than radar, and a laser guns range will be decreased by anything affecting visibility, such as rain, fog or smoke. A laser gun cannot operate through glass, and it must be stationary to get an accurate reading. Because laser must have a clear line of sight and is subject to cosine error (an inaccuracy that increases as the angle between the gun and the vehicle increases), police typically use laser equipment parallel to the road or from an overpass. Laser can be used day or night. How POP Works POP works by transmitting an extremely short burst, within the allocated band, to identify speeding vehicles in traffic. Once the target is identified, or popped, the gun is then turned to its normal operating mode to provide a vehicle tracking history (required by law). tickets should not be issued in pop mode. Note: According to radar gun manufacturers, How Laser (Lidar) Works Laser speed detection is actually light detection and ranging (LIDAR). Laser guns project a beam of invisible infrared light. The signal is a series of very short infrared light energy pulses that move in a straight line, reflecting off your car and returning to the gun. Laser uses these light pulses to measure the distance to a vehicle. Speed is then calculated by measuring how quickly these pulses are reflected, given the known speed of light. Laser is a newer technology whose use is not as widespread as conventional radar; therefore, you may not encounter it on a daily basis. And unlike radar detection, laser is not prone to false alarms. Because laser transmits a much narrower beam than does radar, it is much more accurate in its ability to distinguish between targets and is also more difficult to detect. As a result, even the briefest laser alert should be taken seriously. 16 17 Understanding Your Detector How GPS Works The Global Positioning System (GPS) is made up of twenty four orbiting satellites and was developed by the U.S. military. There are at least four satellites visible at any given time every day. receive data from four of these satellites. This data includes the distance to your location from each of the satellites. Once the distance from each satellite is known, the receiver can calculate and pinpoint your exact location. A GPS receiver is designed to locate and How TotalShield Works ESCORTs TotalShield Technology keeps RF signals from radiating from the detector. Unlike other radar and laser detectors, which merely move their RF signals (local oscillators) to another frequency
(which will be detectable by future detector-
detectors), this revolutionary design keeps you unseen by current radar detector-detectors, including VG-2 and Spectre. This unique design will also keep you unseen from any future radar detector detectors as well. completely undetectable radar, laser and safety detector, driving techniques and reactions to alerts can still draw unwanted attention. Here are a few examples:
1. Hitting the brakes immediately when the ESCORT MAX Ci 360 provides an alert can broadcast use of a detector. Although the ESCORT MAX Ci 360 is a 2. Traveling at night with a glow from a radar detectors display visible from outside your vehicle can also draw unwanted attention. The ESCORT MAX Ci 360 offers adjustable brightness, including a full dark mode which will provide audio alerts, but no visual indication. TSR Signal Ranking Software Your radar detector includes a new optional boost in anti-falsing software to eliminate excessive alerts from erroneous X and K-band sources. One example of this is traffic flow monitoring systems. These systems, which are becoming more widely used in several countries, generate K-band signals to measure the flow of traffic on a given road. Unfortunately most detectors see this as a real threat and will alert you to it unnecessarily. Our new proprietary software (TSR), intelligently sorts, ranks and rejects this type of false alarm automatically. The result is ultimate protection without excessive false alarms. can be activated through the Programming section. We suggest you turn TSR on if you are experiencing extreme false alerts in your area. If not, your detector is ready to start protecting you right out of the box. feature, please give us a call or visit our website for more details. The TSR software is set up as an option and If you have any questions about this new 18 19 Service Procedure Service Procedure If your ESCORT MAX Ci 360 ever needs service, please follow these simple steps:
1 Check the troubleshooting section of this manual. It may have a solution to your problem. 2 Contact your installing dealer. They will evaluate your unit and arrange repairs if necessary. Troubleshooting Problem Solution Detector beeps briefly at the same location every day, but no radar source is in sight. Detector did not alert when a police car was in view. Detectors audible alerts become softer after the first few alerts. The power-on sequence reoccurs while you are driving. You wish to restore the factory default settings. The device will not turn on. The detector feels warm. The display is blank. Detector displays Service Front Radar Detector displays Service Shifter 1 A motion sensor or intrusion alarm is located within range of your route. If you have AutoLearn enabled, the factory default setting, then ESCORT MAX Ci 360 will store this signal after about 3 passes and no longer alert to it. Officer may not have radar or laser unit turned on. VASCAR (Visual Average Speed Computer and Recorder), a stopwatch method of speed detection, may be in use. Detector is in AutoMute mode. See AutoMute in the Settings &
Preferences section for details. A loose power connection can cause ESCORT MAX Ci 360 to be briefly disconnected and will retrigger the power-on sequence. Check all connections. Press and hold the MRK and BRT buttons while powering on the detector. A Factory Settings Restored message will display, acknowledging the reset. Check that vehicle ignition is on. Check all connections. It is normal for the device to feel warm. ESCORT MAX Ci 360 is in Dark mode. Press the BRT button to adjust the brightness. There is a problem with the front receiver. It could be an unplugged connection, damaged wiring, or a problem within the front receiver itself. This message will continue to display and the ESCORT MAX Ci will not operate until the problem has been repaired. There is a problem with the ShifterMax sensor that is using Port 1 on the ShifterMax Bridge Box. It could be an unplugged connection, damaged wiring, or a problem within the ShifterMax sensor or Bridge Box. 20 21 Warranty ESCORT One Year Limited Warranty Three-Year Limited Warranty with installation by authorized installer What this warranty covers: Escort, Inc.
