Feature Engaged Confirmation

Each time a button is pressed one beep confirms feature
“on”, two beeps confirm feature “off”.

Setting Saver

Setting Saver saves your personalized
settings so that when the detection is turned off
and then on again, you do not have to re-enter
them.

Auto Quiet Mode

Pressing Quiet before a radar signal is
detected provides an alternate alert pattern,
consisting of four beeps (indicating X, K, Ka or Safety
Radar) followed by clicking. The clicking will continue
for as long as the detected signal is present or any
new signal is detected within 20 seconds, becoming
more rapid as the strength of the signal increases.

Quiet Mode

Pressing Quiet cancels audio during an alert and any
new alert within 20 seconds. After approximately 20
seconds, 2 beeps are provided on any new alert,
and unit then remains quiet.
• Press Quiet to cancel the audio.
• Press Quiet a second time during an alert to
restore the standard audio alert pattern; or turn the
unit off, then on.

indicator turns off.

• Pressing City a fourth time cancels City IIII Mode

and returns the unit to Highway Mode.

In City Mode, speed/safety radar signals give an
initial alarm of two beeps, and then remains
quiet until the signal becomes very strong and
two additional beeps are provided. City II and
City IIII Modes operate the same as Highway
Mode, but in City II Mode, only the X band sensi-
tivity is lowered. In City IIII Mode, X-band is not
detected.
Caution using City II mode: Some towns/small

cities may still be using X band radar.
Note: City Mode does not change the audio alert
for laser or VG-2.

Highway Mode

Highway mode provides full audio warnings any time
radar (X, K, Ka, Safety Radar) or laser signals are
detected, and is recommended for open road driving.
