Quad-level IntelliShield
™
False Signal Rejection
Highway Mode provides full immediate response to all
signals detected. Use this mode when you are driving on
interstate highways.
Automatic door openers operate in X and K-band frequencies. To
minimize unwanted false alerts in an urban environment where
these sources exist, use one of the City Filtering Modes below:
• City X: automatically mutes X-band audible alert
until signal strength reaches level 3 or above.
• City X+K: combined with City X, automatically
mutes K-band audible alert until signal strength
reaches level 2 or above.
• City Plus X+K+Ka: combined with City X+K,
automatically mutes Ka-band audible alert
until signal strength reaches level 2 or above.
• City MAX: Maximum filtering against urban
false signal sources.
To choose between different City Filtering Modes vs Highway
Mode, touch City/Highway Touch-point Icon next to the
display and follow on-screen instructions.
IntelliMute
™
IntelliMute allows you to avoid audible alerts you don’t need
to hear because you are stopped or moving slowly. By sensing
the RPMs of your engine, IntelliMute knows when you are at
low speed and automatically mutes alerts. You can set your
preferred engine RPM activation point and/or turn on/off
IntelliMute by following simple steps that appear on your unit
screen, under User Settings and then IntelliMute.

Note: IntelliMute may not work with some vehicles, especially
hybrids or EVs because the detector cannot sense the engine
RPMs. In such case, Quad-level IntelliShield City Filtering or
Auto Mute can help reduce unwanted audible alerts.
IntelliScope
™
In conjunction with detection of a Location-based Alert
(LBA), when IntelliScope is turned on, it will also provide you
with the direction/arrow pointing towards that LBA location.
Follow simple on-screen instructions under GPS Settings and
then IntelliScope.
When IntelliScope is turned off, you will only get those alerts
that you are approaching directly towards.
Speed Alert
When a speed is set, and you exceed that speed, you will
hear a chime and the speed displayed will change color.
Set this in the GPS Settings Menu. Use the scroll arrows to
change the speed.
