FEATURE DESCRIPTIONS

1. Bracket Release Button – provides quick

and easy release of the mounting bracket.

2. Speaker – provides distinct audio warnings

for X, K, Ka band radar, safety warning system,

laser and VG-2.

3. Mounting Bracket Location – slot holds

mounting bracket firmly.

4. Radar Antenna – compact, high-efficiency

antenna receives radar signals.

5. Front Laser – high gain optical lens provides

increased sensitivity and field of view for

leading-edge laser detection.

6. Rear Laser – an integrated optical waveguide

provides superior detection of laser signals

transmitted from behind.

7. City Button - reduces the annoyance of false

alerts typically encountered in urban driving

areas.

8. Quiet Button - pressing QUIET before a radar

signal is detected engages Auto Quiet Mode

which provides “clicking” sounds after the

initial warning. Pressing QUIET during a radar

encounter silences audio alerts, while allowing

visual alerts to keep you informed.

9. Power / Volume Control - turns unit on/off

and adjusts audio level.

10. Dim / Dark Mode - engages Dim/Dark modes.

11. Menu Button - enters option select mode.

12. Numeric Icon Display - combines icon

display with a 7 segment digital display that

shows signal strength indication and band

identification.

13. Alert Periscopes - provide an additional

attention getting visual alert.

14. X-band Icon - indicates the unit is receiving a

X-band signal.

15. K-band Icon - indicates the unit is receiving a

K-band signal.

Mounting Guidelines

•Mount the unit as low as possible near the

center of the windshield.

•Do not mount the unit behind wipers, ornaments,

mirrored sunscreens, etc. These obstructions

have metal surfaces which can affect radar and

laser signals and reduce critical warning time.

(Regular tinted glass does not affect reception).

•Some windshields have an Instaclear™ or

Electriclear™ type coating, which affect radar

signals. Consult your dealer or the user guide

supplied with your vehicle to

determine if your windshield

has this coating.

•Avoid placing the unit in direct

contact with the windshield.

•To reduce the possibility of

theft, conceal the unit when

not in use.

Rubber Bumper

FEATURE DESCRIPTIONS

16. Ka-band Icon - indicates the unit is receiving a

Ka-band signal.

17. V - indicates that the unit is receiving a VG-2

signal. Indicates that VG-2 is engaged.

18. H - indicates unit is in Highway mode.

19. C - indicates that the unit is operating in city

mode.

20. Signal Strength Icon - indicates the strength

of the signal being detected.

21. L - indicates that the unit is receiving a laser

signal.

22. Power Jack - provides connection for the

power cord

INSTALLATION

Windshield Mounting

•Install the two suction cups and rubber bumper

onto the bracket by fitting them into their holes.

•Press the suction cups onto the windshield at the

location you have chosen.

IMPORTANT: Some newer cars have a plastic safety

coating on the inside of the windshield. The windshield

bracket may leave permanent marks on this type of

surface. To find out if your vehicle has this type of

windshield, check the vehicle’s user guide or ask your

dealer. We recommend that you do not leave the

suction cup bracket on the window in direct sunlight. If

the detector is removed, this may cause blistering of

the dash in some vehicles.

•Slide the detector onto the bracket until it locks

into place.

•If necessary, the unit may be leveled by bending

the windshield bracket. Press the bracket release

button and remove the detector before bending.

Windshield

Mounting

IMPORTANT: Make sure the unit is level

INSTALLATION

Power Cord Connection

•Plug the small end of the power cord into the

unit’s power jack.

•Plug the large end into the vehicle’s cigarette

lighter socket.

NOTE: Cord fits tightly into detector. When

installing the cord, expect some resistance.

Fuse Replacement

The lighter socket plug is equipped with a

replaceable 2 amp, 3AG fuse located behind the

silver tip. To replace the fuse, carefully unscrew

the tip of the plug.

IMPORTANT: Unscrew slowly. The tip contains

a spring which may fly out when disassembling.

Insert the new fuse with the spring and screw on

the tip. With use, screw cap on plug may loosen.

Retighten occasionally.

OPERATION

Power On Self Test & Volume

Each time your Whistler detector is turned on, an

automatic self-test sequence confirms that the

speaker and visual displays are functional. To

increase the volume, continue turning the

volume knob.

Integrated Real Voice® (CR73 Only)

When selected, Real Voice®will be used to

articulate the following:

Band Identification

Safety Warning System messages

Feature Selection

Voice OFF/ON is selected by holding quiet

button for approximately 2 seconds. Voice ON

will announce “caution”, Voice OFF will give a

double beep.

Feature Engaged Confirmation

Each time a button is pressed, one beep confirms

the feature is “on”, two beeps confirm feature

“off”.

Self Test Mute

Press the Quiet button during the Self-Test

sequence to cancel the Self-Test audio. This will

not affect radar/laser alerts. To restore the

Self-Test audio, press the Quiet button during the

next Self-Test.

OPERATION

Setting Saver

Setting Saver stores your personalized settings so

that when the detector is turned off and then on

again, you do not have to re-enter them.

Auto Quiet Mode

Pressing QUIET before a radar signal is detected

provides an alternate alert pattern, consisting of

several beeps (indicating X, K, Ka or Safety Warning

System) followed by clicking. After 20 seconds of no

alerts, the audio is restored for any new alerts.

•

Press Quiet (before a signal is detected) to

engage Auto Quiet.

•Once the Auto Quiet mode is engaged, you

may cancel the audio alarm by pressing Quiet.

•

Press Quiet (when the unit is not alarming) to

cancel Auto Quiet mode.

Quiet Mode

Pressing Quiet cancels the audio during an alert and

any new alert within 20 seconds. After 20 seconds of

no alerts, the audio is restored for any new alerts.

•

Press Quiet to cancel the audio.

•

Press Quiet a second time during an alert

to restore the standard audio alert pattern;

or turn the unit off, then on.

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 button to cancel Highway Mode

and engage City Mode.

•Press City button again to enter City 1 Mode.

OPERATION

City/City 1/City 2 Mode(cont’d)

•

Press City button again to enter City 2 Mode.

•

Press City button a fourth time to cancel City 2

Mode and returns the unit to Highway Mode.

In City Mode, weak speed/safety warning system

signals give an initial alarm of two beeps, and then

remains quiet unless the signal becomes very strong.

When the signal strength increases, two additional

beeps are provided. City 1 and 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: Some towns/small cities may still be

using X band radar. City Modes do not change the

audio alert for laser.

Highway Mode

Highway mode provides full audio warnings any

time radar (X, K, Ka, Safety Warning System) or laser

signals are detected, and is recommended for open

road driving.

Field Disturbance Sensor Rejection (FDSR)

Traffic Flow Sensor Rejection (TFSR)

Recently many new products that operate on police

radar frequencies have been causing nuisance alerts

to radar detectors. These radar based sensors are

installed alongside the Highway and more recently

on vehicles used as lane change assist / blind spot

detectors / collision avoidance systems. TFSR when

turned ON is designed to eliminate alerts from

specific Traffic Flow sensors. FDSR when turned ON

is designed to identify all radar based collision

avoidance systems that operate within the same

band as police radar and provide a brief less

intrusive alert to keep you informed and aware.
