In Less detail mode, only the threat level is displayed (see page 10).
Your detector includes the SMARTPOWER feature that, when turned On, will put the
unit into Low Power mode 15 minutes after the car’s engine has been turned Off.
Before SMARTPOWER enters Low Power mode, you will hear three beeps and
SMARTPOWER will flash on the display. To return the unit to Normal Power mode

AutoMute will automatically reduce the audio volume of all alerts after four

Language
The detector can be set to either English or Spanish for all text and voice audio.
IntelliMute
INTELLIMUTE allows you to avoid alerts you don’t need to hear because you are
stopped or moving slowly. By sensing the “revs” (RPMs) of your engine, INTELLIMUTE knows when you are at low speed and automatically mutes alerts (except for
strobe signals from emergency vehicles).
Before INTELLIMUTE will work, you must set an activation point for your engine’s
revs. Whenever the revs are below that point, INTELLIMUTE will begin muting.
The activation point will be stored in memory and recalled each time the power is
turned On. The factory setting is INTELLIMUTE Off.
NOTE: INTELLIMUTE may not work with some vehicles because it cannot sense
the engine’s revs. In such cases, you can reduce unwanted audio alerts
by using Auto Mute and SEN mode when appropriate.

near your vehicle.

Three band frequencies have been approved by the Federal Communications

Secondary Icons
X band
K band
Ka band
10.525 GHz
24.150 GHz
33.400 – 36.00 GHz
Your detector
detects signals in all three radar bands, plus Ku band (13.435
Notice
GHz), which is an approved frequency used in parts of Europe and Asia.
VG-2
VG-2 is a “detector detector” that works by detecting low-level signals emitted
by most radar detectors. Your detector does not emit signals that can be detected
by VG-2, but does detect VG-2 signals and will alert you when a device is in use
near your vehicle. While no signal is being detected, press and hold the Dim
button for four seconds.
Your detector can be spotted by Spectre IV+ RDDs, but is invisible to VG-2 and
Spectre I RDDs. You can choose whether you want to be alerted to VG-2 and
Spectre I & IV+ RDD signals. The factory setting for VG-2 and Spectre I & IV+
alerts is Off. It is recommended to leave these Off unless you are concerned
about being monitored for having a radar detector.
The factory setting for VG-2 alerts is Off.

Understanding LIDAR &
Maintenance
Customer
LIDAR (Laser)Assistance
Warranty
The correct name for the technology that most people refer to as laser is
actually LIDAR, which stands for Light Detection and Ranging.
LIDAR operates much like radar. Its signal spreads out like a radar signal, though
Secondary
Icons
not
as widely. Unlike radar, LIDAR must have a clear line of sight to its target
vehicle throughout the entire measurement interval. Obstructions such as sign
posts, utility poles, tree branches, etc., will prevent valid speed measurement.
Some common questions about LIDAR include:
n D
 oes weather have any affect on LIDAR?
Notice
Yes. Rain,
snow, smoke, fog or airborne dust particles will reduce the
effective range of LIDAR and can, if dense enough, prevent its operation.
n C
 an LIDAR operate through glass?
Yes. Newer LIDAR guns can obtain readings through most types of glass.
However, the laser pulse also can be received through glass to trigger an
alarm by your detector.
n Can LIDAR operate while in motion?
No. Because LIDAR operates by line of sight, the person using it cannot drive
the vehicle, aim and operate the gun all at the same time.
n Is it legal for police to use LIDAR?
Yes, LIDAR is allowed to be used in all 50 States by police. Your detector
detects LIDAR (laser).
