Compass Mode
Your detector includes an internal 8-point Magnetic
Compass that can continuously display your current
direction of travel: N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W or NW.
The factory setting for Compass is Off.
Before the Compass will work properly, it must
be calibrated (see page 20). Calibration allows
the Compass electronics to measure and store
information about the magnetic fields generated by
your vehicle so direction indications will be accurate.
A Compass icon and directional heading will appear
in the display when the Compass is On and calibrated.
The Compass will remain accurately calibrated as long as your detector is
mounted in the same place in your vehicle. If you change the location where
the unit is mounted or move it to another vehicle, you must recalibrate the
Compass. You should also recalibrate the Compass if you suspect it is
providing inaccurate directions.

Voice or Tone Mode
You can set your detector to sound alerts and confirm menu settings with
either a Voice or a Tone Alert. Voice Alert provides voice messages in addition
to tones. Tone Alert provides tones only. The factory setting is Voice Alert.

Display Timeout determines how long the Standby screen is illuminated
before switching the unit to Dark. The factory default is 30 seconds.
You can set the time interval to 15 seconds, 30 seconds, one minute,
three minutes or Always On (display never turns Off).
