IntelliShield City Mode Default

City

 Mode Default makes three levels of 

Audio Alert

 suppression available 

when you toggle from 

Highway

 to 

City

 mode.

City X

 sounds a single beep when an X band signal is first detected. 

The alert then sounds when signal strength reaches level 3.

City X+K

 combines the City X mode with prevention of K band audio 

alerts until the signal strength reaches level 2.

City X Beep Off

 blocks all X band audio alerts until the signal strength 

reaches level 3.
The City Mode Default can be changed in 

Menu

 mode. It can also be changed 

at any time the 

Main Standby

 screen is displayed:

1.

  Press the 

City

 icon to sequentially step through City X, City X+K, and 

City X No Beep.

GPS Settings

 can be selected by clicking the
