City/City 1/City 2 Mode
Whistler’s Three Stage City Mode is designed to reduce the
annoyance of automatic door openers, intrusion alarms and
other devices which share frequencies with police radar.
Generally X band is used for these devices.
• Press
City to engage City.
• Press
City a second time to engage City 1.
• Press
City a second time to engage City 1.
• Press
City a third time to engage City 2.
• Press
City a fourth time to cancel City 2 Mode and
return the unit to Highway Mode.
In City Mode, weak speed/safety radar signals give an initial
alarm of two beeps, (with optional audio) and then remains
quiet unless the signal becomes very strong. When the signal
strength increases, two additional beeps are provided. In City
1 Mode, only the X band sensitivity is lowered. City 1 & City 2
Modes operate the same as Highway Mode, but in City 1
Mode, only the X- band sensitivity is lowered. In City 2 Mode,
X-band is not detected.
CAUTION: When selecting this mode, some towns/small cities
may still be using X band radar. If Auto Quiet is engaged in City 1
or City 2 modes and the unit receives a strong radar signal, the unit
performs the Auto Quiet feature. City Modes do not change
the audio alert for laser or VG-2.
