RECEIVING AND IDENTIFYING

ALERT SIGNALS

Your detector gives different audible alerts for each signal. In

addition, the alert tone pulse rate increases with signal

strength and the detector displays a digit from 1 to 8 to indicate

the signal strength (1 is weakest and 8 is strongest). (See

“Demonstrating Alerts” on Page 12 to find out how the detector

alerts you to X-, K-, Ka-band, safety warning system, laser,

and VG-2 signals.)

When your detector senses instant-on radar, it sounds an

intense, 3-second tone and displays

Safety Radar Audio/Visual Alerts

Your radar detector detects all safety radar including the new

Safety Warning System and Safety Alert. These systems pro-

vide advanced warning of hazards and let you respond appro-

priately to potentially dangerous conditions.

Note:

Not all areas have Safety Warning System or Safety

Alert transmitters. Your radar detector only alerts you to haz-

ards if the area you are in has transmitters sending signals.

When your radar detector encounters safety radar, it sounds a

distinctive tone and displays the signal strength. In addition,

your radar detector informs you of the type of hazard by dis-

playing one of five letters:

(weather) — confirms detection of a weather advisory such

as heavy fog or high winds.
