IntelliMute Pro Mode
IntelliMute Pro prevents detection by radar detector detectors (RDDs) such as
VG-2, Spectre I and Spectre IV when traveling at slower speeds. It is intended for
use by experienced users only.
When IntelliMute Pro is turned On and engine RPMs are below the IntelliMute
Pro Activation Point,
your detector’s radar detection circuits are turned Off to
prevent detection by RDDs.
The
IntelliMute Pro icon will appear in the display when IntelliMute Pro is On
and the Activation Point has been set. Whenever engine RPMs are below the
Activation Point, the arrow points down with the “i” blinking. When RPMs are
above the Activation Point the arrow points up with the “i” blinking

IntelliMute and IntelliMute Pro Modes
IntelliMute and IntelliMute Pro are two features that are active at slow speeds
and when your vehicle is stopped. Both depend on your detector sensing the
vehicle’s engine “revs” (RPMs) to function. Either feature can be turned On, but
not both at the same time.
Before turning On IntelliMute or IntelliMute Pro, you must first set an Activation
Point for your engine’s RPMs (see page 22). Whenever the RPMs are below that
point, IntelliMute can begin muting or IntelliMute Pro can turn Off the radar
detection circuits.
NOTE
IntelliMute and IntelliMute Pro may not work with some vehicles
because the unit cannot sense the engine’s RPMs. In such a case,
City and Auto Mute mode can reduce some unwanted audio alerts.
IntelliMute On and Off
To turn IntelliMute and IntelliMute Pro On or Off, click on the
IntelliMute icon
to step through the settings. The settings in the sequence of IntelliMute On,

IntelliMute Mode
IntelliMute allows you to avoid audio 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 (except for strobe signals
from emergency vehicles). It works with all
City and Auto Mute modes.
The
IntelliMute icon will appear in the display when IntelliMute is On and the
activation point has been set. Whenever engine RPMs are below the Activation
Point, the arrow points down. When RPMs are above the Activation Point the
arrow points up.

CAUTION
When IntelliMute Pro is On, NO radar signals will be detected and NO
alerts will be given at RPMs below the IntelliMute Pro activation point.
