Spectre I & IV+ Alerts

Police use radar detector detectors (RDDs) to spot users of radar detectors.

Your detector is able to identify signals from

Spectre I and Spectre IV+ RDDs

and can provide alerts when any of these or similar devices are in use near

your vehicle.

Your detector

can be spotted by Spectre IV+ RDDs, but is invisible to

Spectre I RDDs. You can choose whether you want to be alerted to Spectre I

& IV+ RDD signals. The factory setting is Spectre Detect Off.

Spectre Audio Mode

When Spectre Audio mode is On, alerts will be sounded as well as being

displayed on the screen. This setting is only available if Spectre Alert is On.

The factory setting is Spectre Audio Off.

Safety Alert

When Safety Alert mode is On, Safety Alert radar signals will be detected

and an alert will be given. During the alert, the unit will continue to detect

other signals. The factory setting is Safety Alert On. Strobe Alert remains On

when Safety Alert is turned Off.

Car Battery Low Voltage Warning

In addition to displaying system voltage, your detector can provide a

warning that battery voltage is low so that timely steps can be taken to

correct the problem. The

Car Battery Low alert is triggered when the

voltage drops below 11.9 volts. Following the alert, the unit enters

SmartPower mode to avoid further draining your car battery.

The factory setting is Car Battery Low Off.

NOTE

For alerts available only with the Optional GPS Locator unit,

see pages 34 and 35.

Signals Detected

The tables on the following pages show the types of Signals your detector

will detect, as well as the visual alerts it provides for each of them.

Audio Alerts

A distinctly different Alert tone is used for each type of signal detected

(including separate tones for each laser signal). For X, K, Ka and Ku band

radar signals, the tones will repeat faster as you approach the signal

source. The repeat rate of the tones gives you useful information about

the signal detected. See responding to alerts on page 28.

Visual Display

An indication of the type of signal detected will appear in the OLED Data

Display. During X, K, Ka and Ku alerts, you will also see symbols indicating

the strength of the signal detected on a scale of one to five. Pop alerts always

show at level five as soon as they are detected.
