SELECTING THE CITY AND
HIGHWAY MODES
In the city mode, the detector requires a stronger X-
band signal before it sounds an alert. This eliminates
responses to most false sources, such as automatic
door openers and alarm systems. However, the signal
strength meter continues to react immediately to X-
band signals to keep you quietly informed. The city
mode has no effect on K, Ka, instant-on X, laser, or
Safety Warning System signals.
To select the city mode, press CTY until the detector dis-
plays CITY .
The highway mode provides maximum sensitivity for
open-road driving.
To select the highway mode, press CTY until the detec-
tor displays HIGHWAY .
DIMMING THE DISPLAY
To dim the display, press DRK once. The detector beeps
and displays DIM . To turn off all indicators, press DRK
again. The detector beeps and displays DARK for a
couple of seconds, then the display turns off ( H for high-
way or C for city remains on very dimly to confirm the
detector is on). To restore full brightness, press DRK
again. The detector beeps and displays BRIGHT for a
few seconds, then displays CITY or HIGHWAY .
