Vehicle Battery Saver Mode; Option Select Mode (Xtr-520 Only); Stay Alert Feature - Whistler XTR-220 Owner's Manual

OPERATION
Engaging/Disengaging VG-2
XTR-520: See option select mode to turn this
feature on.
XTR-220: Press and hold the quiet button. Unit
beeps once for VG-2 on, twice for off. The "V"
icon will illuminate when engaged.
When a VG-2 signal is detected, the VG-2 alert is
sounded. After 3 seconds the audio is cancelled
and the VG-2 indicator flashes at a slower rate.
This cycle is repeated if the VG-2 signal is again
detected.
During the period a VG-2 signal is detected, a
radar signal cannot be detected. However,
because the VG-2 alert has confirmed that a
patrol car is nearby, you are already aware of the
potential for speed monitoring and can adjust
your speed accordingly. Laser detection is not
affected while a VG-2 signal is detected.

Vehicle Battery Saver Mode

The Vehicle Battery Saver Mode automatically
shuts off your detector if you forget to turn it off. The
timer is reset if the detector is turned off, unplugged
or any button is pressed before the timer has
expired. The detector will alert you with an audible
and visual warning before it shuts off.
During this warning you can reset the unit by
pressing any button. This will reset the timer.
If the unit has automatically turned itself off, press the
Power button to turn the unit back on. You can man-
ually engage the Vehicle Battery Saver Mode by
pressing and holding the City button until one
beep is heard. (XTR-520 Only)
