City/Highway Operation - Uniden LRD6699SWS Operating Manual

City/Highway Operation

In highly populated areas, you may encounter many devices that use the
same frequencies as radar signals, such as motion detectors, automatic
doors, and intrusion alarms. These devices may trigger an effect called
"falsing."
Press the CITY button to change between Highway or City mode:
CITY mode – filters most of the weaker radar signals and
significantly reduces "falsing." In this mode, the combination of
visual and audio alert tones varies based on the strength of the signal
CTY
received. "
HIGHWAY mode – has a lower signal threshold, which simply
means it doesn't filter out weaker signals. Your detector will be more
sensitive to distant signals, but it also is more likely to "false." Since
radar use declines significantly outside heavily populated areas, this
mode provides better long range detection while traveling long
distances. "
Note: If you use both Mute mode and City modes, you won't receive an
alert until you are very close to the radar source.
