™
)
Whether Auto-Mute is selected on or off in Selectable
Features,the audio alerts can be completely muted by
pressing the aud button during an alert.The display will
briefly show “
Qu i e t .”.No audible alert will be heard for
approximately 12 seconds.If the signal is still present after 12

Pressing the cty button once engages the cty mode which is
confirmed by “
CITY” in the display coupled with a single audio
“beep”. Pressing the cty button a second time returns you to
highway mode;“HIGHWAY”will appear in the display coupled
with two“beeps”.Once engaged,weak X band signals
encountered will produce no audible alert until the signal
strength reaches a preset level.However,visual alerts are
processed the instant an X band signal is detected,keeping
you quietly informed.Since most “false”X band signals are
weak,the use of the cty mode allows you to drive out of their
range before they reach the preset level and trigger a full
audio alert.In contrast,signals from X band traffic Radar are
generally stronger and will exceed the preset level,causing a
full X bandaudio alert.Activating the cty mode will not
