Volume
To adjust PASSPORT Max to your preferred audio level for alerts, simply press and hold or −.
The audio will increase/decrease while it is depressed. Once you reach the desired audio level, simply
release the button. PASSPORT Max will retain this setting in its memory, even if the system is turned off.
Mute
The MUTE button allows you to silence the audio during an alert. Simply press the button during the
alert. Once the radar encounter has passed, the mute will disengage, and the audio will return to your
pre-set level. You can also silence an alert by pressing the SmartCord MUTE button.
AutoMute
Your PASSPORT Max also includes ESCORT’s patented AutoMute feature. Once PASSPORT Max alerts
you to a radar encounter at your selected volume level, it automatically reduces the volume more than
50%. This keeps you informed without the annoyance of a continuous full-volume alert. If you prefer,
you can turn the AutoMute feature off. See the Settings & Preferences section for details.
SmartMute
If AutoMute has already reduced the volume for one alert and a higher-priority band is detected,
PASSPORT Max will sound an alert at your set volume for the second band before adjusting the volume
back down to the AutoMute level.
User Mode
PASSPORT Max offers two unique user modes:
Advanced
In this mode, you can access and customize all of PASSPORT Max’s settings and preferences.
Novice
In this mode, you can access and customize units (English or metric) and display color only. All other
preferences are set to the factory defaults. To view all preferences, you must switch back to Advanced
mode.
Display Color
Your detector screen can be displayed with blue, green, red or amber accents to match the dashboard
lighting of various vehicles. See the Settings & Preferences section for details on how to change the
display color.
