City Mode Sensitivity
City STD
(Standard)
In this setting, when you put your V8 in the
City mode, X-band sensitivity is significantly
reduced, to reduce annoyance from X-band
intrusion alarms and motion sensors.
(factory default)
City LoX
(Low X band sensitivity)
In this setting, when you put your V8 in the
City mode, X-band sensitivity is reduced
more than the standard setting. This will
reduce X-band alarms from other sources
even further, but also significantly reduces
range to X-band traffic radar.
City NoX
(No X-band sensitivity)
In this setting, when you put your V8 in the
City mode, V8 will not respond to any
X-band signals.
NOTE: These settings only apply
when the V8 is operated in City
mode. X-band sensitivity is not
affected when used in “AutoScan”
or “Highway” modes.
WARNING: Only choose this
setting if you are absolutely certain
that there are no X-band traffic
radar units where you drive.
Bands
BandsDFT
In this setting, all North American radar and
laser frequencies are monitored. This is the
factory setting and it is recommended that
you use your V8 in this mode.
BandsMOD
In this setting, your V8 will warn you with
an audible alert, and associated text
message stating which band has changed
from the original factory setting (i.e. “SWS
ON”). This warning is displayed during the
start up sequence (standard or fast).
