Power
To turn your V8 on or off, press the PWR
button located on the top. When you turn
your V8 on, it goes through a sequence of
alerts.
If you prefer, you may program your
V8 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 V8’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 V8’s start-up sequence is
complete, the alphanumeric display will
show Highway, AutoScan, 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 V8 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 V8 has our patented AutoMute feature.
After the V8 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 V8’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 / AutoScan / City
Button
The City button selects the V8’s sensitivity
mode. We recommend the AutoScan mode
for most driving.
Your V8’s AutoScan mode provides
long-range warning, with minimum false
alarms. In this mode, the V8’s internal
computer continuously analyzes all
incoming signals and intelligently filters out
false alarms.
You can also select conventional
Highway and City modes. 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. You can also customize your
V8’s City mode sensitivity, including “No X”
mode. See the Programming section for
details.
Brightness
The V8’s BRT button selects the brightness
of your V8’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 V8 changes to a very
inconspicuous power-on indication: a very
Dim AD, HD, or CD. (In this display, the A, H,
or C indicates Auto, Highway, or City, and
the D indicates Dark.)
When the V8 is in the Dark mode, the
display will not show visual alerts when V8
detects signals. Only the audible alert will
tell you of detected signals.
