pressing the aud button during an alert. The display will
briefly show “Quite.”No audible alert will be heard for at
approximately 20 seconds. If the signal is still present after 20
seconds, press the aud button again if you do not want to
receive any audible alerts.
Note—because Laser alerts are not lengthy or sustained, muting
is not required (see page )

cty (City/Highway) Button
The cty mode has been designed to effectively reduce
unwanted audio alerts caused by intrusion alarms, door
openers, and other devices which share X band with police
Radar — without reducing sensitivity. Signals from non-police
Radar sources are frequently encountered in urban and
suburban areas, making use of this mode ideal in these areas.
Pressing the cty button once engages the cty mode which is
confirmed by “
CITY” in the display coupled with a single audio
“beep”. Pressing the cty button a second time returns you to
highway mode;“HIGHWAY” will appear in the display coupled
with two“beeps”. Once engaged, weak X band signals
encountered will produce no audible alert until the signal
strength reaches a preset level. However, visual alerts are
processed the instant an X band signal is detected, keeping
you quietly informed. Since most “false” X band signals are
weak, the use of the cty mode allows you to drive out of their
range before they reach the preset level and trigger a full
audio alert. In contrast, signals from X band traffic Radar are
generally stronger and will exceed the preset level, causing a
full X band audio alert.Activating the cty mode will not
change Super Wideband Ka, K or instant-on X band Radar
alert patterns.
Note—the cty mode does not change the presentation of alerts
for Laser or sws
