When changing the Settings on your detector, please keep in mind:
Buttons can have multiple functions.
All settings will be stored in memory when the power is
turned Off and recalled when the power is turned back On.

Highway/City Mode

Setting your detector to City mode delays all X band audio alerts until
the signal strength reaches Level 3. (A single beep will sound when the
signal is first detected.) This will reduce false alerts while you are driving
in, or near, urban areas where there are many sources for conflicting
X band signals such as microwave towers and automatic door openers.
To change settings, follow the procedure listed below, which indicates
what you will see and hear as you complete each step. The factory setting
is Highway mode.
