MUTING ALERTS

While a radar, laser, or safety warning alert is sounding, you
can press

MUTE

to temporarily silence the detector for the cur-

rent alert and any new alert that it receives within 20 seconds.
Visual alerts are not affected.

USING AUTO QUIET

Auto Quiet reduces the selected audio level to a clicking alert
about 5 seconds after it detects a radar signal. The clicking
alert sounds at the minimum level for any new signal received
within 20 seconds. VG-2 or laser alerts are not affected.

To turn on Auto Quiet, press

MUTE

when the detector is not

sounding an alert. The detector displays

AUTO

then

QUIET

.

To turn off Auto Quiet, press

MUTE

when the detector is not

sounding an alert.

SELECTING THE CITY AND
HIGHWAY MODES

Your detector’s CITY and CITY 1 modes are designed to
reduce annoying false alerts triggered by automatic door
openers, intrusion alarms, and other devices that share fre-
quencies with police radar. In the CITY 1 mode, only X-band
sensitivity is lowered.

Note: The city modes have no effect on laser or VG-2 opera-
tion.
