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 is Auto Mute On.
IntelliMute
IntelliMute is a unique 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.
Before IntelliMute will work, you must set an activation point for your
engine’s revs (see page 10). 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.

the Mute button
