LASER/RADAR ALERTS

receive an alert. In this situation there is generally
no time to safely adjust your speed. However, if you
are traveling near or behind the targeted vehicle and
receive an alert, response time should be sufficient.
Any laser alert, regardless of duration, requires
immediate action!
Pulse Protection®
Pulse (or instant-on) radar is more difficult to detect
than conventional radar because it remains “off”
until activated to measure the speed of a targeted
vehicle. When a pulse type transmission is detected,
your Whistler detector sounds an urgent 3-second
audio warning and a “P” will be displayed. After
the 3-second pulse alert, the standard alert pattern
continues for as long as the signal is present. It is
important to respond promptly to a pulse alert, since
warning time may be minimal.
Safety Warning System/Audio/Visual Alerts
When your Whistler detector detects a safety
warning system, it provides a distinctive audio tone
and the Numeric Icon display shows an “S.” and
a decimal point when a Safety warning system is
detected.
NOTE:
You will be able to receive SWS™ alerts if
transmitters are located in your area.
