VG-2 and Spectre I & IV+ Alert Settings
Police use radar detector detectors (RDDs) to spot users of radar detectors.
Your detector is able to identify signals from VG-2, Spectre I and Spectre IV+
RDDs and can provide alerts when any of these or similar devices are in use
near your vehicle.
Your detector can be spotted by Spectre IV+ RDDs, but is invisible to VG-2
and Spectre I RDDs. You can choose whether you want to be alerted to VG-2
and Spectre I & IV+ RDD signals. The factory setting for VG-2 and Spectre I &
IV+ alerts is Off.
IntelliMute Pro
IntelliMute Pro prevents detection by radar detector detectors (RDDs) such as
VG-2, Spectre I and Spectre IV+ when traveling at slower speeds. It is intended
for use by experienced users only.
When IntelliMute Pro is turned On, and engine RPMs are below the IntelliMute
activation point, your detector’s radar detection circuits are turned Off to
prevent detection by RDDs.
Before IntelliMute Pro can be turned On, you must have turned On and Set the
IntelliMute activation point. (See pages 9 through 11.)
