Operating Instructions 1. Starting Up After you have successfully installed your S6 or S6-R and performed the download it is time to perform the first start up. Firstly make sure your vehicle is parked in as open a space as possible, clear of tall trees and buildings so that the GPS extension antenna has a clear view of the sky above. Next power the unit up by pressing Button 1 (please refer to diagram on page 4).
7. Saving new co-ordinates If in the unlikely event that you pass the location of a Safety Camera and your Snooper S6 does not provide an alert, the S6 gives you the opportunity to upload the co-ordinates of the location manually. Simply park safely as close as possible to the site and press the new location button. An icon will appear on the display to confirm that the location has been New Location saved successfully.
ALL MODE In ALL mode the device will detect all alerts generated through GPS that are within the selected range of the device. If you were travelling on a Motorway for instance it would mean that the unit could detect locations situated on an ’A’ road that is near to the Motorway. As it is not on the road you are travelling however it is not a threat and you might prefer to select the Motorway setting so that the unit would ignore unwanted signals located by GPS.
