batteries from being drained.

To mute the audio for a single specific signal: Briefly press the
Mute Button. After the signal has passed, SOLO will automatically reset

SOLO is shipped with AutoMute engaged. In AutoMute
mode, the audio for the first four audible tones or four seconds
(whichever is longer) in an alert situation will be emitted at your
selected volume level and all subsequent audible tones during the
same alert will be emitted at a lower volume level. After the signal has
passed, SOLO automatically resets to the volume level you have set.
(AutoMute can be deselected. See Programmable Options on page 8
for more information).

Each time you turn SOLO on, the last Highway/
City mode selected is the one which is automatically engaged. We
recommend driving in Highway mode most of the time for maximum
sensitivity. When driving in urban areas where annoying X-band
intrusion alarms and door openers are common, City Mode can be
engaged to lower X-band sensitivity and reduce X-band alerts. Full
sensitivity is maintained on all other bands.
To select City Mode:
Briefly press the City Button. The City Indicator will blink and SOLO’s
X-band sensitivity level will be lowered to a level to suit most urban
driving environments. Three other City Mode levels are available for
more problematic urban environments
(see Programmable Options on
page 8 for more information). Also, the City Indicator can be
programmed to not blink and light solid
(see Programmable Options
on page 8 for more information). To return to Highway Sensitivity:
Briefly press the City Button again.

With each press, SOLO will cycle through the four display settings as
follows: 1st press = Full Dark, 2nd press = Low, 3rd press = Medium,

Your most recent selection is retained in SOLO’s memory until you
select a different brightness level as the default.
