3300 Installation Instructions
OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
Added Protection From Behind
For drivers interested in gaining increased detection range
when radar is transmitted from behind, the Whistler 3300 can
be upgraded with a second antenna. This antenna is mounted
facing rearward and can be purchased from many Whistler
retailers or directly from Whistler; ask for the SWRA-3300
(Superwideband Remote Antenna), Part Number 202964.
The Whistler 3300's control panel is designed to operate with
the SWRA-3300; the RADAR 2 port (3) is the input for the
SWRA-3300 cable. On model 3300 an asterisk is displayed next
to the Band ID (K ||| |||) when radar signals are detected. The
*
SWRA-3300 detects all radar guns operating on X, K, and
superwideband Ka frequencies.
Instructions and mounting hardware for installing the SWRA-
3300 are included with the unit.
More Volume
Real Voice Module (P/N 202971) can be used to articulate Band
ID, Safety Warning and Feature Selection. Plugs into VOICE
port (4).
NOTE: This is the only audio option that can be plugged into
the Whistler 3300. Any other device may damage the unit and
void the warranty.
