Operation
Power On
Rotate the wheel controller (located on the side of the detector) until you hear
it click. The STINGER radar/laser detector goes through a self-diagnosis
sequence and displays the last mode previously set in memory.
Volume control
Use the volume thumb wheel, located on the side of the STINGER radar/laser
detector to adjust volume level.
Blue backlit display
Press DIM/MENU button to turn on the blue backlit.
Mute on/off selection (Mute mode)
Press the MUTE/CITY button repeatedly to toggle between mute on (1 beep)
and mute off (2 beep) modes. Mute on will silence the audio alarm for the
remainder of an existing signal and for any new alert received.
You may also adjust the audio level by using the volume thumb wheel.
Highway/City mode selection
Press the MUTE/CITY button for three seconds each time to toggle Highway
(2 beep) and City (1 beep) modes. The CITY mode is indicated by "CITY" at
the display.
X-band, occupied by police radar, is also shared for other uses, such as
automatic door openers like the ones used at supermarkets, burglar alarms,
terrestrial microwave emission, RF braking systems, and other devices.
In addition, other radar detectors in close proximity may falsely alert your
detector. To reduce false alerts, the STINGER radar/laser detector has city
filtering settings. City mode will give you the rejection of X-band alarms by
approximately 20%.
