FURTHER TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION CAN BE FOUND IN THE FULL USER  
MANUAL SITUATED ON THE CD ROM  
You can also select your own preferred detection distance. For further information please consult  
the User Manual on the CD Rom.  
4. Cancelling an Alert  
If during an alert you decide that you would like to cancel it simply press and hold either the MEM  
or MUTE buttons.  
Please Note: Do not leave your Sapphire plugged into the cigarette lighter socket when you  
start your vehicle. As it is prone to power surges as the vehicle is started which may damage  
your unit.  
10. Road Type - ALL is selected as the factory default setting.  
Snooper Accessories & Price List  
In ‘ALL’ mode the Sapphire will provide alerts on all road types of any fixed speed safety cameras  
that are within range of the unit. Note: If you were travelling on a section of motorway for example  
it would mean that the unit could detect locations situated on an ‘A’ or ‘B’ road that is near to the  
motorway. As it is not on the road you are travelling though, it is not a threat and you might prefer  
to select the ‘Mway’ setting so that the unit would ignore these unwanted alerts. For further  
information on Road Type settings please consult the User Manual on the CD Rom.  
The following accessories are available from your local Snooper dealer. For further details please  
5. Logic Modes  
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION ON INSTALLING AND POWERING YOUR SAPPHIRE PLEASE  
REFER TO THE FULL USER MANUAL ON THE CD ROM.  
There are three Logic modes that you can select from. These different Logic settings determine  
how the Sapphire alerts you to fixed speed safety cameras. Logic 2 is the factory default setting.  
When Logic 2 is selected your unit will alert you both audibly and visually as you approach fixed  
safety cameras on your side of the carriageway only. For further information on alternative settings  
please refer to the user manual.

Basic Operating Instructions  
1. Using the Sapphire for the first time  
After you have performed a download and installed your Sapphire perform the first start up. Make  
sure your vehicle is parked in as open a space as possible. The flip-up GPS antenna must have  
an unobstructed view of the sky above. Next turn the unit on by pressing and holding the  
Standby/Power switch for two seconds. The full colour TFT LCD display will briefly read ‘Snooper’,  
Logic #*, Mway*, City* or All* and finally ’Searching for Satellites...’ will flash along the bottom of  
the screen as the unit begins to search for satellite connection.  
Basic Troubleshooting  
6. Alert Patterns  
The unit cannot be switched on  
Fixed Speed Safety Cameras  
Check that the cigarette lighter adaptor is well inserted into the cigarette lighter socket and that the  
cigarette lighter socket is functioning properly. Check that the lighter socket is clean and free from  
debris. Also check that the fuse of the cigarette lighter adaptor is intact.  
As you approach a fixed speed safety camera the unit will begin to emit either a voice alert or your  
chosen audible alert at your preset alert distance. As you approach the fixed speed safety camera  
the ‘beeping’ will quicken. At the same time the display will indicate the type of location you are  
approaching, the speed limit at that location and will then begin to count down the distance in 50  
metre increments to that location. The unit will continue to alert you until you have passed the  
fixed speed safety camera.  
*FOR FURTHER INFORMATION OF THE MODE AND LOGIC SETTINGS PLEASE REFER  
TO SECTION 7 AND SECTION 10 OF THE FULL USER MANUAL ON THE CD ROM.  
The unit cannot acquire satellite connection  
Service under Warranty  
If your unit requires service within it’s standard 2 year warranty return your Snooper Sapphire, via  
special or recorded delivery and in suitable packaging to:  
Check that the Sapphire’s flip up GPS antenna has a clear view of the sky above.  
If this is the first time you have powered up your Sapphire please remember that the first ‘cold’ start  
may take up to 50 minutes to acquire sufficient satellite connection. Subsequent start up times will  
only take a couple of minutes if used regularly.  
Once the unit has acquired adequate satellite lock it will proceed to the Standby screen of your  
choice As soon as the standby screen is displayed your Sapphire is ready to use and will now  
automatically alert you of any locations stored in its database. A variety of audible and visual alert  
patterns are available. See ‘Features and Settings’ in the full user manual situated on the  
CD-ROM for how to further personalise your unit.  
Automute: When your device alerts you to a location, rather than continually beeping through  
the alert, it simply beeps at your selected volume for five seconds and then automatically mutes  
the sound to volume level 3 until you have passed or moved out of range of the speed camera.  
Note: This function is built into the unit and cannot be switched off.
