Controls and Features
Power
To turn V995 on or off, press the PWR
button located on the top. When you turn
V995 on, it goes through a sequence of
alerts.
If you prefer, you may program your
V995 for a shorter power-on sequence. See
the Programming section for details.
Volume
Press and hold the Volume/Mute button
located on the top case to adjust the V995’s
alert volume level. The audio will ramp up
and down, accompanied by a bar-graph on
the display. Once you’ve reached your
preferred audio level, simply release the
button.
Power-on indication
After V995’s start-up sequence is complete,
the alphanumeric display will show
Highway, AutoScan, or City to indicate
which sensitivity mode is selected.
If you prefer, you can select alternate
power-on displays. See the Programming
section for details.
Voice Alerts
The V995 provides digital voice announce-
ments of radar and laser bands detected. If
Safety Radar (SWS) is turned on, a safety
radar message will also be announced. See
the Programming section for details.
If you prefer, you can select turn Voice
Alerts off. See the Programming section for
details.
AutoMute
Your V995 has our patented AutoMute
feature. After V995 alerts you to a radar
encounter at the volume you have selected,
the AutoMute feature will automatically
reduce the volume to a lower level. This
keeps you informed without the annoyance
of a continuous full-volume alert.
If you prefer, you can turn the
AutoMute feature off. See the Programming
section for details.
Mute
The Mute button, located on V995’s top
case, allows you to silence the audio alert
during a radar encounter.
To mute the audio for a single specific
signal, briefly press the Mute button. After
that radar encounter has passed, the mute
will automatically reset and the audio will
alert you to the next encounter.

Highway / AutoScan / City Button
The City button selects V995’s sensitivity
mode. We recommend the AutoScan mode
for most driving.
V995’s AutoScan mode provides long-
range warning, with minimum false alarms.
In this mode, V995’s internal computer
continuously analyzes all incoming signals
and intelligently filters out false alarms.
You can also select conventional
Highway and City modes. When driving in
urban areas where annoying X-band
intrusion alarms and door openers are
common, City mode can be engaged to
lower X-band sensitivity and reduce X-band
alerts. Full sensitivity is maintained on all
other bands. You can also customize V995’s
City mode sensitivity, including “No X”
mode. See the Programming section for
details.

Brightness
V995’s BRT button selects the brightness of
V995’s display. There are four settings:
Maximum, Medium, Minimum, and Dark.
Press the BRT button to select your
preferred brightness.
If you prefer, you can have V995
always turn on at a specific brightness. See
the Programming section for details.
Dark Mode
When you select the Dark mode with the
BRT switch, V995 changes to a very
inconspicuous power-on indication: a very
Dim AD, HD, or CD. (In this display, the A,
H, or C indicates Auto, Highway, or City,
and the D indicates Dark.)
When V995 is in the Dark mode, the
display will not show visual alerts when
V995 detects signals. Only the audible alert
will tell you of detected signals.
If you prefer, you can have V995’s
display totally dark (see the Programming
section).
