Laser False Alarms
1. Red neon, from stores and occasionally from brake
lights of other cars (example: Chevy TrailBlazer,
GMC Envoy, Olds Bravada and Buick Rainier), can
imitate the characteristics of speed laser.
Solution: Move away from source.

2. The electrical systems of some cars generate
electromagnetic interferences, triggering laser alerts.
How to test: Try V1 in a different car.
Possible solution: Try relocating detector within the
interfering car; also, your dealer may have a factory fix.

3. Adaptive cruise control systems using laser may cause
laser alerts.
Solution: Switch to normal cruise control.
I get a lot of false alarms from GMC SUV's.
