Problem

PASSPORT beeps briefly at the
same location every day, but no
radar source is in sight.

PASSPORT does not seem
sensitive to radar or laser.

PASSPORT did not alert when a
police car was in view.

PASSPORT only beeped twice
during a radar encounter.

PASSPORT’s audible alerts are
less loud after the first few
alerts.

sequence reoccurs while you
are driving.

Your 14-year old son has

changed all of your Preferences.

PASSPORT will not turn on.

Solution

• An X or K-band motion sensor or intrusion alarm is
located within range of your route. You can manually
lock this out using TrueLock, or allow AutoLearn to
do it over time.

• PASSPORT may be in Auto or AutoNox mode.

• VASCAR, (Visual Average Speed Computer And
Recorder) a stopwatch method of speed detection,
may be in use.

• This is normal. Full alerts are minimized when
traveling below 25 mph.

• PASSPORT is in AutoMute Mode. See page 4 for
details.

• A loose power connection can cause PASSPORT to
be briefly disconnected, and will retrigger the power-
on sequence.

• You can return all of the Preferences to their factory
defaults by holding down the SENS and VOL buttons
while you turn PASSPORT on.

• Check that the PWR button is ON.
• Check that vehicle ignition is ON.
• Check all connections.
