Over-Speed Alert

With PASSPORT Max, you can set the Over-Speed Alert to notify you when you are traveling over a
specified speed (factory default is 70 mph; see Settings & Preferences for details). When you travel
above the speed threshold you have set, the background display for your current speed will turn red to
alert you that you have exceeded the specified speed.

Alert Tones

Standard
PASSPORT Max's factory default for alert tones is the ESCORT Standard mode, in which PASSPORT Max
uses a Geiger counter-type sound to indicate the signal strength and type of radar signal being
encountered. When you encounter radar, a distinct audible alert will sound and will increase as the
signal gets stronger. This allows you to judge the distance from the signal source without taking your
eyes off of the road. Each band has a distinct tone for easy identification:
X band = beep tone
K band = brap tone
