LASER/RADAR ALERTS
Laser Tips
If you are the targeted vehicle, a laser gun can
often determine your speed within a few seconds
after you receive an alert. In this
situation there is generally no time to safely
adjust your speed. However, if you are
traveling near or behind the targeted
vehicle and receive an alert, response time
should be sufficient. Any laser alert, regardless of
duration, requires immediate action!
Pulse Protection
®
Pulse (or instant-on) radar is more difficult to
detect than conventional radar because it
remains off until activated to measure the speed
of a targeted vehicle.
When a pulse type transmission is detected, your
Whistler detector sounds an urgent 3-second
audio warning and the display will show a max
signal strength level.

After the 3-second pulse alert, the standard alert
pattern continues for as long as the signal is
present. It is important to respond promptly to a
pulse alert, since warning time may be minimal.

VG-2 Detection Mode
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. See page 19 for more information
on VG-2.
•
Press and hold the Quiet button. Unit
beeps once for VG-2 on, twice for VG-2 off.
When a VG-2 signal is detected the VG-2
alert is sounded. After 3 seconds, the audio
is cancelled and the “
V
V
/
/
L
L
” icon illuminates.
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.
