Troubleshooting
24
Problem
STi DRIVER beeps briefly at the
same location every day, but no
radar source is in sight.
STi DRIVER does not seem sensitive
to radar or laser.
STi DRIVER did not alert when a
police car was in view.
STi DRIVER did not provide a Safety
signal while within range of an
emergency vehicle.
STi DRIVER’s display is not working.
STi DRIVER’s audible alerts are less
loud after the first few alerts.
STi DRIVER bounces or sags on
windshield.
STi DRIVER’s power-on sequence
reoccurs while you are driving.
Possible Cause
• An X-band or K-band motion sensor or intrusion alarm is
located within range of your route. With time, you will learn
predictable patterns of these signals.
• Make sure that windshield wipers do not block STi DRIVER’s
radar antenna and that the laser lens is not behind tinted areas.
• Determine if your vehicle has an Instaclear
®
, ElectriClear
®
or
solar reflective windshield which may deflect radar or laser
signals.
• STi DRIVER may be in City Mode.
• VASCAR (Visual Average Speed Computer and Recorder) a
stopwatch method of speed detection, may be in use.
• Officer may not have radar or laser unit turned on.
• Safety transmitters may not be commonly used in your area.
• Check programming to be sure the STi Driver is not in Dark
Mode.
• STi DRIVER is in AutoMute Mode. See page 8 for details.
• STi DRIVER is not making contact with the windshield to
provide stability. While holding down STi DRIVER’s
QuickMount button, slide STi DRIVER toward the windshield
so that the back top edge makes firm contact.
• A loose power connection or dirty lighter socket can cause
STi DRIVER to be briefly disconnected.
