Controls and Features
Power
To turn your V928i on or off, press the PWR
button located on the top. When you turn
your V928i on, it goes through a sequence
of alerts.
If you prefer, you may program your
V928i for a shorter power-on sequence. See
the Programming section for details.
Volume
Press and hold the Volume/Mute button
located on the top case to adjust the
V928i’s alert volume level. The audio will
ramp up and down, accompanied by a bar-
graph on the display. Once you’ve reached
your preferred audio level, simply release
the button.
Power-on indication
After the V928i’s start-up sequence is
complete, the alphanumeric display will
show Highway or City to indicate which
sensitivity mode is selected.
If you prefer, you can select alternate
power-on displays. See the Programming
section for details.
Voice Alerts
The V928i provides digital voice
announcements of radar and laser bands
detected. If Safety Radar (SWS) is turned
on, a safety radar message will also be
announced. See the Programming section
for details.
If you prefer, you can turn Voice Alerts
off. See Programming section for details.
AutoMute
Your V928i has our patented AutoMute
feature. After the V928i alerts you to a radar
encounter at the volume you have selected,
the AutoMute feature will automatically
reduce the volume to a lower level. 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 Programming
section for details.
Mute
The Mute button, located on the V928i’s
top case, allows you to silence the audio
alert during a radar encounter.
To mute the audio for a single specific
signal, briefly press the Mute button. After
that radar encounter has passed, the mute
will automatically reset and the audio will
alert you to the next encounter.

Highway / City Button
The City button selects the V928i’s
sensitivity mode. We recommend the
Highway mode for most driving.
When driving in urban areas where
annoying X-band intrusion alarms and door
openers are common, City mode can be
engaged to lower X-band sensitivity and
reduce X-band alerts. Full sensitivity is
maintained on all other bands. See the
Programming section for details.
Brightness
The V928i’s BRT button selects the
brightness of your V928i’s display. There are
four settings: Maximum, Medium, Minimum,
and Dark. Press the BRT button to select
your preferred brightness.

Dark Mode
When you select the Dark mode with the
BRT switch, your V928i changes to a very
inconspicuous power-on indication: a
very Dim HD or CD. (In this display, the H
or C indicates Highway or City, and the D
indicates Dark.)
When the V928i is in the Dark mode,
the display will not show visual alerts when
V928i detects signals. Only the audible alert
will tell you of detected signals.
