more rapid as the strength of the Radar signal increases. With this mode engaged, the automatic mute mode enables you to conveniently monitor extended encounters without having to manually mute or adjust the volume setting. To return to the continuous audio alert pattern, press the button a second time while the unit is not alarming. Two "beeps" and no decimal point in the upper left corner of the Digital Display confirm you have cancelled automatic mute mode. Manual Muting of Audio Alerts (Radar & sws™) Regardless of the mode selected (continuous or automatic mute) the X, K, Super Wideband Ka and sws™ audio alerts can be completely muted by pressing the button during an alert. Once the alert has passed, the unit will revert to the previous aud setting (continuous or automatic mute). Note-because Laser alerts are not lengthy or sustained, muting is not required (see page 17). (City X/Highway) Button The city X mode has been designed to effectively reduce unwanted audio alerts caused by intrusion alarms, door openers, and other devices which share X band with police Radar-without reducing sensitivity. Signals from non-police Radar sources are frequently encountered in urban and suburban areas, making use of this mode ideal in these areas. Pressing the button once engages the city X mode which is confirmed by a "C" in the Digital Display and a single audio "beep". Pressing the button twice returns you to highway mode; a double "beep" and illumination of "H" in the display will confirm this selection. With engaged, weak X band signals encountered will produce no audible alert until the signal strength reaches a preset level. However, visual alerts are processed the instant an X band signal is detected, keeping you quietly informed. Since most "false" X band signals are weak, the use of the city mode allows you to drive out of their range before they reach the preset level and trigger a full audio alert. In contrast, signals from X band traffic Radar are generally stronger and will exceed the preset level, causing a full X band audio alert.
