What to Remember While
Using SmartMute
™
SmartMute™ works with both City and
Auto Mute modes.
Whenever your engine revs are below the
activation point, the dot next to the large
character on the right side of the display
will remain lit. Above the activation point,
the dot will blink twice every 2 seconds.
If, for any reason, the unit stops sensing
your engine's revs, SmartMute™ will
indicate an error and automatically turn off.
The rev point you set will be stored in the
unit's memory when power is turned off, and
recalled each time the power is turned on.
The rev point must be reset if you use
your ESD-9160 in a different vehicle.
Important: When initially choosing your
SmartMute™ activation point, a setting
of approximately 300 to 600 RPMs above
idle is recommended. You can reset the
activation point at any time to fit your
individual preferences and driving style.
