Escort Passport SR1 Installation Instructions

Please read the installation warnings inside. 2 Please read this entire installation sheet before beginning your installation. 3 To ensure the high-performance radar and laser detection that Escort detectors are known for, the mounting location of the front receiver is critical. Although Radar signals will go through some types of plastic, Laser signals will not. It is very important to mount the Front Receiver in a level position that gives it a clear “view” of the road ahead. The metal mounting brackets provided have several different mounting holes, and can be used for most vehicles. However, additional mounting hardware may be required for some installations.

connector, then connect receiver cable to cable from Front Receiver. (Fit connectors together, then twist large ring until it clicks.) Do not shrink the heat-shrink tubing until the detector is installed and operational. 2 Route cable to firewall, secure with zip-ties. 3 Route cable into interior. If there is not a suitable opening, drill a 13/32” or 7/16” diameter hole (slightly larger than 3/8”). 4 Route wire inside interior and plug into jack labeled “Receiver” on EZ-Interface. 5 Pull grommet (provided on cable) into position from vehicle interior to seal hole. Use silicone sealant (not included) if necessary for complete sealing. Think first: • Connector attaching to Front Receiver cable must be positioned in a dry location under hood, away from water spray. • Only drill hole after thoroughly investigating location and ensuring no other wires, hoses, or other components will be damaged. • Keep cable and connector away from moving parts and hot surfaces (radiator, heater hoses, exhaust components). • Shielded cable– coil excess, do not splice. Installation 1 Determine best location for Receiver. The best location is usually under the bumper or just inside the grill. The unit must be mounted with the arrows pointing forward. (The radar antenna and laser sensors “look” out the front of this unit, so it must have a clear “view” of the road ahead.) 2 Mark location, drill pilot holes in vehicle if necessary. 3 Mount large metal brackets to vehicle with 4 sheet metal screws and lockwashers. 4 Mount Receiver to large brackets with four 8-32 machine screws and lockwashers. 5 Route wire up to a dry location under hood for the connector, secure with zip-ties. Think first: • Do not drill holes in Receiver. Mount only to the preattached side and rear brackets. • Only drill holes in vehicle after thoroughly investigating location and ensuring no other wires, hoses, or other components will be damaged. • Keep cable and connector away from moving parts and hot surfaces (radiator, heater hoses, exhaust components). • Shielded cable– do not splice.

(Carefully fit connectors together, then twist this large ring until it clicks.) After installation is complete and unit is opera- tional, slide the heat-shrink tubing over the connection, then shrink tubing for air-tight seal. IMPORTANT INSTALLATION WARNINGS Your new Passport SR1 must be installed by a professional installer. Installation of this product requires experience and expertise in automo- tive electronics. Car Audio specialists and many car dealers can install Pass- port for you. Attempting to install this product without expertise in automotive elec- tronic installations can cause personal injury during the installation, or can damage your Passport or your ve- hicle. If your vehicle is damaged during installation, its safety systems may be compromised, which could cause personal injury or property damage. Improper installation may void Passport’s warranty. B Installation Read this first! Please read both sides of these instructions before starting your installation. For the easiest trouble- free installation, install the EZ-Interface first, and wire it to a 12 volt switched circuit. Then before installing the other components, plug all three into the EZ-Interface and power up unit to con- firm proper operation. See the other side of this instruction sheet for addi- tional mounting information.

2 Route wire through trunk into interior, then conceal under trim and route and plug into jack labeled “Rear Laser” on EZ-Interface. Think first: • Do not block license plate illumination. • Do not cover any required license plate information. Alternate Installations (hdwr. not incl.) • Can be mounted elsewhere on rear of vehicle. Brackets on Rear Laser Receiver can be removed and turned 90º, then used to mount unit beneath bumper. • Can be installed inside car facing out rear window. • Cable can be routed under vehicle (take care that cable cannot contact hot sur- faces such as exhaust system) , then brought into interior with front cable. • Cable can be cut if necessary for routing. Reconnect and solder each of the three conductors and seal with heat-shrink tubing. Installation 1 Mount with velcro or double-sided adhesive pad to instrument pod, dash- board, or console. (Clean vehicle surfaces thoroughly to ensure secure attachment.) 2 Route wire and plug into EZ-Interface. Think first: • Make sure display is clearly visible and controls can be easily reached from driver’s seat position. Alternate Installation • Can be mounted vertically, such as on the side of a console (volume knob goes at the top). Carefully peel the standard label from the front of the Display/ Controller, and replace with the supplied Vertical label. To program the Display for vertical read- out, power the unit up. After the start-up, hold the Mute and City buttons for 2 seconds. The display will read “Program.” Then press the Review button once. The display will read “Disp STD” (standard). Then press the Change button once. The display will change to “DispVERT” (vertical). Wait 8 seconds as Passport saves your programming. (See manual pages 8-12.) Installation 1 Mount inside vehicle under dashboard with zip-ties. (Do not mount under hood.) 2 Connect black wire to ground, connect red-striped wire to switched 12 volt power. (If Passport is left in the on position, it will then automatically power-up each time the car is started.) Use blue 3M connector provided to tap into existing circuit. 3 Receiver, Rear Laser, and Display cables all plug into EZ-Interface. (Be sure to plug all cables into the correct labeled jacks.) EZ-Interface mounts under dash, connects to ground and switched 12 volt power Display/Controller mounts to dash or console, plugs into EZ-Interface Rear Laser Sensor mounts to license plate, plugs into EZ-Interface Instructions for Passport SR1 Highway Interior of Vehicle Connect to switched 12 volts and ground B B B 123 123 123 123 123 AFTER ALL COMPONENTS ARE INSTALLED • Turn Passport volume knob to full. • Turn ignition switch on. Passport should power-up. Watch Display for messages “Rear OK” and “Front OK”. • If Display reads “Rear N/A” during the start-up sequence, the Rear Laser is not properly hooked up (Front Receiver will still operate). • If Display reads “Front N/A” during the start-up sequence, the Front Receiver is not properly hooked up. The Display will then show “Check Receiver Wiring.” Passport will not operate until problem is fixed. • If the display says both “Rear N/A” and “Front N/A,” check to see if the Front Receiver and Rear Laser cables are reversed at the EZ-Interface.
