Quick Reference Guide
4 5
Mark Location Button (MRK)
The “MRK” button allows you to mark a
specific location and label it for future
reference. Once marked, the PASSPORT
9500ci will provide an alert before you
reach this area again. This can be
extremely useful when there are known
speed traps or safety cameras in a
particular location. Page 8
Display Brightness (BRT)
The “BRT” button selects your preferred
brightness level. The factory default
setting is Auto (automatic), which will
adjust the display brightness based on the
ambient light in the vehicle. See the
Preferences section for details.
MatrixDisplay
The 9500ci’s alphanumeric display
consists of 280 individual LEDs, to provide
an intuitive ultra-bright display of signal
strength and text messages. The 9500ci’s
display will show Highway, Auto, or
AutoNoX as its power-on indication. If you
prefer, you can choose other power-on
indications. Pages 12-15
During an alert, the display will
indicate the radar or laser band, and a
precise bar-graph of signal strength.

Note: In the Dark Mode the
display will not light during an alert.
GPS Signal Indicator
The GPS icon indicates reception of GPS
satellite signals and will rotate when
a false alert is being rejected.
Power Button
Press and hold to manually turn the
9500ci on or off. If installed properly, the
system will turn on or off automatically
with the ignition.
Sensitivity Button (SENS)
The “SENS” button selects the 9500ci’s
sensitivity. The choices are Highway (full
sensitivity), Auto (based on the speed of
the vehicle) and Auto No X, (same as Auto
but without X-band). In general, we
recommend Auto. Page 7
Volume Button (VOL)
Press and hold the VOL button on the
controller to adjust the alert volume level.
The audio will ramp up to increase, down
to decrease, accompanied by a bar-graph
on the display.
To change the direction of the audio
ramping (down instead of up or vice
versa) simply release the VOL button
quickly press and hold it again to change
its direction.
NOTE: Your preferred audio level
will be stored in memory, even after
the detector is turned off.
Mute Button (Mute)
Briefly press this button to silence the
audio for a specific alert. (The audio will
alert you to the next encounter.) Pages 6-7
