Muting an Alert

Your detector allows you to quickly turn Off an audio 

Alert

by momentarily

pressing the 

Mute

button. If you press the 

Mute

button a second time 

during the 

Alert

, the audio 

Alert

will be turned back on.

Auto Mute Mode

Auto Mute

will automatically reduce the audio volume of all alerts 

after four seconds for as long as the signal is detected. The factory 
setting for 

Auto Mute

is on.

IntelliMute

IntelliMute

is a unique new feature that allows you to avoid alerts you 

don’t need to hear because you are stopped or moving slowly. By sensing 
the “revs” (RPMs) of your engine, IntelliMute knows when you are at low
speed and automatically mutes alerts (except for strobe signals from
emergency vehicles).

Before IntelliMute will work, you must set an activation point for your engine’s
revs (see page 11). Whenever the revs are below that point, IntelliMute will
begin muting. The activation point will be stored in memory and recalled 
each time the power is turned on. The factory setting is 

IntelliMute

Off.

NOTE

IntelliMute may not work with some vehicles because it cannot sense
the engine’s revs. In such cases, you can reduce unwanted audio alerts
by using 

Auto Mute

and 

City

mode when appropriate.
