Mode Alerts

Because POP

™

Mode radar utilizes the same

K or Ka band frequencies, POP

™

Mode Alerts will be

displayed as regular radar alerts.

LASER/RADAR ALERTS

Speed Radar Audio/Visual Alerts

When X, K, or Ka is detected, the band ID and

signal strength is displayed. The audio alert

is continuous and has a pattern like a geiger

counter. The faster the beep, the closer or

stronger the radar source.

Laser Audio/Visual Alerts

When a laser signal is detected the audio alert is

continuous for a minimum of 3 seconds.

 •TheDisplayShows:

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shows:

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 Audio/Visual Alerts

Note: You must turn this feature on before it will detect VG-2.

When a VG-2 signal is detected, the detector “hides”

its own radiated signal and becomes undetectable by

the VG-2. Every 30 seconds, the detector checks for

a VG-2 signal. If a VG-2 signal is still present, the unit

continues to hide and repeats the VG-2 alert. If no signal

is detected, two beeps are provided, indicating an “all

clear” condition. During a VG-2 Alert X, K, and Ka band

signals cannot be received (see pg. 22)

ALERT PRIORITY

When two or more signals are received at the same

time,thealertpriorityis:

1. Laser

2. VG-2

3.SpeedRadar

4.SafetyWarningSystem

Example: If X band is alerting, then suddenly a VG-2

signal is detected, the VG-2 warning will

override the X band alert.

VG-2 ALERTS

Your Whistler detector is expertly engineered

and designed to exacting quality standards to

provide you with reliable, trouble-free operation.

If your unit has been correctly installed following

the guidelines in this manual, but is not

operating optimally, please refer to the

troubleshooting guide below.

PROBLEM: No display or audio.

• Check the fuse in the plug; replace if

necessary with a 2 amp, 3AG type.

• Check the fuse for lighter socket; replace if

necessary.

• Make sure the lighter socket is clean.

PROBLEM: Unit alarms when vehicle hits

bumps.

• Check for a loose lighter socket; tighten and

clean.

• Check the connections at both ends of the

 powercord.Substituteanothercordto 

 determineifthecordisdefective.Returnthe

defective cord to the factory.

PROBLEM: Audio alerts are not loud enough.

• Cancel Auto Quiet Mode or City Mode.

• Check audio level setting (see pg. 8-9).

If difficulties occur which cannot be solved by

information in this Troubleshooting Guide,

pleasecallWhistlerCustomerServiceat

1-800-531-0004 or visit our FAQ page at www.

for service.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Care And Maintenance

During the summer months, avoid prolonged

exposure to direct sunlight by removing your

unit from the dash when your vehicle is parked

for an extended period of time. Do not spray

water, cleaners, or polishes directly onto the unit.

The spray may penetrate through the openings

and damage the unit. Also, do not use any

abrasive cleaners on the unit’s exterior.

ARE DETECTORS LEGAL?

In Most States YES!

Laser-Radardetectorsarelegalineverystate

(except Virginia and Washington, D.C., which

have local regulations restricting the use of

radar receivers in any vehicle) when used in

automobiles or light trucks (under 10,000 lbs.).

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA)

issued a regulation, effective January, 1994 which

prohibits radar and laser detector use in vehicles

over 10,000 lbs. Prior to the FHWA regulation,

laws existed in New York restricting the use of

radar detectors in trucks over 18,000 lbs. and in

Illinois in trucks over 26,000 lbs.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Radar Facts

A radar gun operates by transmitting radio

waves at certain frequencies which reflect off

objects and are picked up by the radar gun’s

receiving section. When a radar beam reflects

off a moving target, a measurable frequency

shift occurs. The radar unit converts this shift into

miles per hour to determine your vehicle’s speed.

Currently, the FCC permits operation of traffic

radar guns at X Band (10.500 - 10.550 GHz), K

Band (24.050 - 24.250 GHz), and Ka Band (33.400

- 36.000 GHz).

Note:

A radar detector will only alarm if an

officer is transmitting on any one of the above

radar bands.

POP™ Mode

POP

™

Mode is a feature on some radar guns

operating on K and Ka bands. When the gun is in

POP

™

Mode and activated, a brief burst of energy,

less that 1/15 of a second, is transmitted and the

vehicle’s speed is quickly acquired. A detector

without POP

™

Mode detection capability cannot

respond to this brief transmission.

FCC ID : HSXWH10

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC

Rules.Operationissubjecttothefollowingtwo

conditions:

(1) this device may not cause harmful interference,

and

(2) this device must accept any interference

received, including interference that may cause

undesired operation.

Important: FCC (Federal Communications

Commission) requirements state that changes

or modifications not expressly approved by

Whistler could void the user’s authority to

operate the equipment.

FCC INFORMATION

Laser Facts

It’s well documented that many radar guns

cannot reliably provide the speed of a targeted

vehicle that is traveling in a group of vehicles. In

contrast, a laser gun can target a specific vehicle

out of a line of traffic and determine its speed. The

advantage of laser over radar in terms of

target identification is the result of the laser gun’s

narrow beam. A radar gun’s transmission can

cover more than a four-lane highway at a distance

of 1,000 feet, compared with a laser gun’s

transmission which covers about 3 feet at the

same distance. For best protection, keep these

pointsinmind:

•Becausethevehicle’slicenseplateor

headlights are the laser gun’s primary targets,

mounting the Whistler detector on the

dashboard can improve laser detection at short

range.

•Donotfollowcloselybehindanyvehicle.Ifyou

can’t see past a vehicle ahead of you, chances

are your detector won’t either.

•Thereceivingrangeofyourlaserdetectorwill

not be the same as a radar detector. Laser guns

are most often used at short range.

WhistlerLaser-Radardetectorsreceiveallcurrent

laser guns which operate at a laser wavelength of 905

+/- 50nm.

SPEED MONITORINGSPEED MONITORING

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!

Other Speed Detection Systems

Severaltechniquesotherthanradarorlaserare

used to measure vehicle speeds. When these

methods are being used, no detector can provide

awarning.Thesetechniquesinclude:

•Pacing - A patrol car drives behind you and

matches your driving speed.

•Vascar/Aircraft - The police measure the

time it takes your vehicle to travel a known

distance.

Radar Detector Detectors: VG-2,Spectre

The Interceptor VG-2 or simply VG-2, is one type of

microwave receiver used by Police to detect signals

radiated by the local oscillator of a radar detector.

Because its purpose is to identify persons driving

with radar detectors, these devices are known as a

“radardetectordetector”(RDD).

AnRDDistheprimarytoolusedbythepoliceto

identify radar detector equipped vehicles. If caught

in a state or country where detectors are illegal (see

page 19), drivers risk losing their radar detector

and receiving a fine. In addition, instant-on radar is

almostalwaysusedincombinationwithanRDD,

leaving unsuspecting motorists vulnerable to receive

two tickets - one potential for speeding, and the

other for possession of a detector.

SPEED MONITORING

Note: Having a radar detector capable of detecting the

VG-2 may alert you to the presence of a speed trap.

The newest tool Police have to detect radar

detectors is called Spectre. Spectre can

detect the majority of undetectable (VG-2)

laser/radar detectors on the market.

It is the responsibility of the individual radar

detector owner to know and understand the

laws in your area regarding the legality of

the use of radar detectors.
