RECEIVING AND IDENTIFYING
RADAR, LASER, AND SAFETY 
WARNING SYSTEM SIGNALS

When you turn on your detector, it sounds alert tones in
the following order: laser, Ka, K, X, and Safety Warning
System.

Your detector displays the band and gives different
audible alerts for each signal. In addition, the alert tone
pulse rate increases and the detector displays more
segments in its signal strength meter as the signal gets
stronger.

When your detector senses instant-on radar, it sounds
an intense, 3-second X, K, or Ka burst and flashes the
received band and a full signal strength meter.

When your detector senses a VG-2 radar-detector
detector, it sounds a 3-second warning and displays

VG2alert
