Instant On
When an “instant on” radar signal is detected, the Express
795 will emit a continuous band “beep” accompanied by all
of the signal strength LEDs flashing. This will be followed
by the specific radar band tone and LED indicators.
CONTROLS AND FEATURES
Brightness (BRT) Button
This button allows you to select either “bright”, “dim” or a
full “dark” modes. To dim all LEDs on the display, press the
BRT button once. This reduces the brightness by approxi-
mately one half.
To put the detector into “dark” mode, simply press the BRT
button once again.
Note:
The green power (P) indicator remains dim to indicate that the
detector is on.
Each time you press the BRT button, an audible confirma-
tion should be heard. If you do not hear this audible confir-
mation, check the volume level on the detector, it may be
too low.
To return to full brightness, simply press the BRT button a
third time.
CITY Button
The City mode filters out unwanted radar signals including
intrusion alarms, motions sensors, and automatic door
openers. These types of signals are typically found in con-
gested urban areas.
To activate City mode, simply press the CITY button once.
A single “beep” will be heard, and the LED marked “C” will
illuminate. In this mode, low level signals will still be seen
MUTE
The MUTE button allows you to silence the audio during
an alert. To mute the audio for a single alert, briefly
press the VOLUME/MUTE button during that alert. After
that radar signal has passed, the mute will automatically
reset and the audio level will alert you to the next signal
at the volume you have set.
AutoMute
After the Express 795 alerts you to a radar encounter at
the volume you have selected, the AutoMute feature will
automatically reduce it to a lower level of audio (factory
default). This keeps you informed without the annoyance
of a continuous full-volume alert.
To deactivate AutoMute, simply press the VOLUME/MUTE
button without a signal present. A double beep tone will
acknowledge the change. To activate AutoMute, simply
press VOLUME/MUTE again without a signal present and
a single “beep” will acknowledge the change.
AUDIO ALERTS
Radar
Each radar band has a distinct tone for easy identification.
X-band = chirping tone
K-band = buzzing tone
Ka-band = double chirp tone
Laser
Since laser alerts are always an immediate threat, the E795
alerts you to all laser signals with a full laser alert.
