Alert Periscopes; Vehicle Battery Saver Mode - Whistler XTR-475 Owner's Manual

OPERATION
Alert Periscopes
Whistler's new Alert Periscopes provide an added
attention getting visual alert. The two extra LEOs
flash on and off when the unit alarms to provide a
unique visual alert. This alert can be programmed,
through the Option Select Mode to: 1. flash for all
alarms, 2. remain on, or 3. turn LEOs off
completely.
VG-2 Mode
See Option Select Mode to turn this feature
on/off. When a
VG-2
signal is detected, the
VG-2
alert is sounded and the display flashes
"VG-2".
After 3 seconds the audio is canceled and the
display no longer flashes. This cycle is repeated
if the
VG-2
signal is detected again.
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. (See
page 17 for more information)
Vehicle Battery Saver Mode
The Vehicle Battery Saver Mode automatically shuts
off the detector after 3 hrs (6 hrs. for XTR-475). 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 momentarily reset the
timer by pressing any button. If the unit has
automatically turned off, press any button to turn the
unit back on.
Refer to "Option Select Mode" for instructions
for deactivating battery saver mode feature.
