OPERATION
City/City 1/City 2 Mode
Whistler’s Three Stage City Mode is designed to
reduce the annoyance of automatic door open-
ers, intrusion alarms and other devices which share fre-
quencies with police radar. Generally, X band is
used for these devices.
• Press City button to cancel Highway Mode
and engage City Mode.
• Press City button again to enter City 1 Mode.
• Press City button again to enter City 2 Mode.
• Pressing City button a fourth time cancels City 2
Mode and returns the unit to Highway Mode.
In City Mode, weak speed/safety radar signals
give an initial alarm of two beeps, and then
remains quiet unless the signal becomes very
strong. When the signal strength increases, two
additional beeps are provided. City 1 and City 2
Modes operate the same as Highway Mode, but
in City 1 Mode, only the X band sensitivity is low-
ered. In City 2 Mode, X-band is not detected.
Caution:
Some towns/small cities may still be
using X band radar. City Modes do not change
the audio alert for laser.
Highway Mode
Highway mode provides full audio warnings any
time radar (X, K, Ka, Safety Radar) or laser sig-
nals are detected, and is recommended for open
road driving.
Note:
In Combo Mode an “H
H” or “C
C” will be
shown to indicate mode of operation.

OPERATION
Dual LED Alert Periscope
Whistler’s new Dual LED Alert Periscope provides
an added attention getting visual alert. The two
extra LED’s flash on and off when the unit alarms
to provide a unique visual alert. This alert can be
programmed, through the Option Select Mode to:
1. flash for all alarms, 2. remain on, or 3. turn LEDs
off completely.
Compass Mode
The unit is programmed from the factory in
“Combo Mode”.
COMBO
mode means that
the unit provides both compass readings as well
as detecting laser/radar signals. Through the
“Option Select Mode”, either laser / radar or com-
pass features can be turned off meaning,
RADAR
equals detection of all police bands and laser;
COMPASS
equals no detection of police
laser/radar.
Note:
The unit must be calibrated to provide
accurate compass readings. See Compass
Calibration Set-up section on page 14.
Dim/Dark Mode
Dim/Dark Mode reduces the illumination of the
display.
• Press the Dark button to reduce illumination
to a Dim setting.
• Pressing the Dark button a second time
engages Dark Mode. The display illumination
is further reduced.
Dim or Dark Mode can be engaged during an
alert. In Dark Mode, the display goes dark for as
long as a signal is being detected and for 20
seconds after, then the display returns to the
dimmer setting.
• Pressing the Dark button a third time restores
full illumination to the display.
