W HISTLER FEATURES  
Whistler’s ergonomic and user-friendly design provides  
a new level of operating convenience. Special features  
include:  
11. High Visibility Text Display – Provides distinct  
visual confirmation of signals detected such as  
VG-2 Laser, X-Band, K-Band, Ka-Band, Highway  
Mode, City Mode, Signal Strength, and Compass.  
1. Bracket Release Button – Provides quick and  
easy release of the mounting bracket.  
Note: Not all units have all features described.  
2. Speaker – Provides distinct audio warnings for X,  
K, Ka band radar, safety radar, laser and VG-2.  
3. Mounting Bracket Location - Slot holds mount-  
ing bracket firmly.  
INSTALLATION  
4. Radar Antenna - Compact, high-efficiency anten-  
na receives radar signals.  
Mounting Guidelines  
Mount the unit as low and level as possible near  
the center of the windshield. Unit must be level for  
compass to function properly.  
5. Laser Antenna (Front) - High gain optical lens  
provides increased sensitivity and field o.  
6. Laser Antenna (Rear) - An integrated optical  
waveguide provides superior detection of laser  
signals transmitted from behind.  
Do not mount your 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.)  
7. CITY/CITY 1/CITY 2 Button - Switches out of  
highway mode to reduce the annoyance of false  
alerts typically encountered in urban driving areas.  
Some windshields have an Instaclearor Electriclear™  
type coating, which affect radar signals. Consult your  
dealer or the owner’s manual supplied with your vehi-  
cle to determine if your windshield has this coating.  
8. Quiet Button - Pressing QUIET before a signal is  
detected engages Auto Quiet Mode which  
automatically reduces the audio level after the  
initial warning to  
a
low audio level setting.  
Avoid placing unit in direct contact with windshield.  
Pressing QUIET during a radar/laser encounter  
silences audio alerts, while allowing visual alerts  
to keep you informed.  
To reduce the possibility of theft, conceal your unit  
when not in use.  
9. Power/Dim/Dark/Button – Turns unit on/off and  
engages Dim/Dark modes (press and hold for  
2 seconds).  
10. Volume Up/Down Buttons – Adjust volume up or  
down. Pressing both buttons enters compass  
calibration mode (1763 only).

Option Select Mode  
Entering Option Select Mode allows you to customize  
options such as Tone Select, Compass Select,  
Abbreviated Power Up Sequence and VG-2 Mode.  
In City Mode, weak speed/safety radar signals give an  
initial alarm of two beeps, and then remain quiet unless  
the signal becomes very strong. When the signal  
strength increases, two additional beeps are provided. In  
City 1 Mode, only the X band sensitivity is lowered. In  
Mode, X-band is not detected. CAUTION:  
When selecting this mode, some towns/small cities may  
still be using X band radar.  
See option select mode to turn this feature on.

If X band is alerting, then suddenly VG-2 is detected, the  
VG-2 warning will override the X band alert.  
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.

PROBLEM:  
Laser/radar detectors are legal in every state  
(with the exception of 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.). Similarly, when used in automo-  
biles or light trucks, radar detectors are legal in  
almost every state. Exceptions are Virginia and  
Washington, D.C., which have local regulations  
restricting the use of radar receivers in any  
vehicle.  
Unit alarms when using vehicle equipment or  
electrical accessories (brakes, power mirrors / windows,  
directionals,horn, etc.).  
Radar Facts  
A radar gun operates by transmitting radio waves  
at certain frequencies which reflect off objects and  
are then 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.  
Vehicle’s electrical system, including battery  
and alternator, may have electrical noise. Install  
a filter capacitor (470mfd. 25 volt or larger  
capacitance value) on the back of the lighter  
socket.  
PROBLEM:  
Audio alerts are not loud enough.  
• Cancel Auto Quiet Mode or City Mode.  
Currently, the FCC (Federal Communications  
Commission) permits operation of traffic radar  
guns at:  
• Check audio level setting (see page 9).

PROBLEM:  
Concerning trucks over 10,000 lbs., the  
Federal Highway Administration (FHwA)  
issued a regulation, effective January, 1994  
which prohibits radar and laser detector use in  
these types of vehicles nationally. Prior to the  
FHwA regulation, laws existed in the state of  
New York restricting the use of radar detectors  
in trucks over 18,000 lbs. and in Illinois in  
trucks over 26,000 lbs.

Consumer Warranty  
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.  
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:  
This Whistler Radar/Laser detector is warranteed to  
the original purchaser for a period of one year from  
the date of original purchase against all defects in  
materials and workmanship. This limited warranty  
is void if the unit is abused, modified, installed  
improperly, if the housing has been removed, or if the  
serial number is missing. There are no express  
warranties covering this product other than those set  
forth in this warranty. All express or implied  
warranties for this product are limited to one year.  
Whistler is not liable for damages arising from the  
use, misuse, or operation of this product.

The Interceptor VG-2, or simply VG-2, is a 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, the VG-2  
is known as a “radar detector detector”.

addition, instant-on radar is almost always used in  
combination with a VG-2, leaving unsuspecting motorists  
vulnerable to receiving two tickets — one potentially for  
speeding, the other for possession of a detector. Having a  
radar detector capable of detecting the VG-2 may alert  
you to the presence of a speed trap.  
• Do not follow closely behind any vehicle  
you can not see through. If you can’t see  
past a vehicle ahead of you, chances are  
your detector won’t either.
