Detection Mode - Whistler 1610 Owner's Manual

VG-2 ALERTS
VG-2 Detection Mode (1630 only)
The VG-2, also known as a "radar detector detector," is a
special receiver used by police to detect signals radiated
by a radar detector.
Press the VG-2 button once to engage, unit beeps once.
Pressing a second time cancels VG-2 detection mode, unit
beeps twice and the VG-2 LED is disengaged.
When a VG-2 signal is detected the P/VG-2 LED flashes
rapidly for 3 seconds and the VG-2 alert is sounded. After
the 3 seconds the audio is canceled and the P/VG-2 alert
LED 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.
Note: VG-2 must be turned on to receive VG-2 Alerts.
