Compass Calibration (N/A on XTR-500/550)
The unit will need to be calibrated in order for the
compass to provide accurate readings. To calibrate
the unit, perform the following procedure:
Twin Alert Periscope
Whistler’s Three Stage City Mode is designed to
reduce the annoyance of automatic door open-
ers, intrusion alarms and other devices which share fre-
quencies with police radar. Generally, X band is
used for these devices.
Whistler’s new Twin Alert Periscope provides an
added attention getting visual alert. The two extra
LED’s flash on and off when the unit alarms to pro-
vide a unique visual alert. This alert can be pro-
grammed, through the Option Select Mode to: 1.
flash for all alarms, 2. remain on, or 3. turn LEDs off
completely.
1. Mount the unit level in the center of the
vehicle’s windshield. Make sure there are no other
magnetic sources near the detector (i.e., speaker).
2. Select a large clear area (parking lot or field)
without any power lines.
• Press City button to cancel Highway Mode
and engage City Mode.
• Press City button again to enter City 1 Mode
• Press City button again to enter City 2 Mode
• Pressing City button a fourth time cancels City 2
Mode and returns the unit to Highway Mode.
VG-2 Mode
XTR-475
See Option Select Mode to turn this feature
on/off. When a VG-2 signal is detected, the VG-2
is sounded and the display flashes “VG-2”. After
3 seconds the audio is canceled and the display
no longer flashes. This cycle is repeated if the
VG-2 signal is again detected.
3. Press the Menu button to enter Calibration Mode..
While parked, press both Dark and Quiet buttons simultane-
ously until the compass headings start to rotate.
In City Mode, weak speed/safety radar signals
give an initial alarm of two beeps, and then
remains quiet unless the signal becomes very
strong. When the signal strength increases, two
additional beeps are provided. City 1 and City 2
Modes operate the same as Highway Mode, but
in City 1 Mode, only the X band sensitivity is low-
ered. In City 2 Mode, X-band is not detected.
4. Drive vehicle slowly in two complete circles, in either direc-
tion. If calibration does not automatically finish press Dark and
Quiet buttons again to complete calibration. The unit will beep
twice and show current compass heading.
During the period a VG-2 signal is detected, a
radar signal cannot be detected. However,
because the VG-2 alert has confirmed that a
patrol car is nearby, you are already aware of the
potential for speed monitoring and can adjust
your speed accordingly. Laser detection is not
affected while a VG-2 signal is detected. (See
page 17 for more information)
Note: XTR-475 shows only the compass heading
while in highway mode.
Caution: Some towns/small cities may still be
using X band radar. City Modes do not change
the audio alert for laser or VG-2.
XTR-575//580/590
3. Press the Menu button until display shows
CAL MODDE. Then press the Dark and Quiet buttons
simultaneously. The display shows (scrolling):
Highway Mode
Vehicle Battery Saver Mode
Highway mode provides full audio warnings any
time radar (X, K, Ka, Safety Radar) or laser sig-
nals are detected, and is recommended for open
road driving.
The Vehicle Battery Saver Mode automatically shuts
off your detector after 3 hrs. (6 hrs. for XTR-475) The
timer is reset if the detector is turned off,
unplugged or any button is pressed before the
timer has expired. The detector will alert you with
an audible and visual warning before it shuts off.
During this warning, you can momentarily reset the
timer by pressing any button. If the unit has auto-
matically turned itself off, press any button to turn the
unit back on.
4. If calibration does not automatically finish press the
Dark and Quiet buttons simultaneously to complete cali-
bration. The unit will beep twice and display shows,

Option Select Mode (Continued)
There are times when a radar detector can emit
the same frequency as police radar and can
cause your detector to falsely alarm. Sometimes
a detector can display a signal when picking up
another radar detector in vehicle close by. The
Whistler Filter Mode options provide a method
to study the signal which will verify if the signal
is a legitimate police radar or a false alert from
another detector. Two options exist:
To enter:
Option Select for Model XTR-475
Filter: Allows for normal filtering.
Filter 1: Provides and extra step to analyze the
legitimacy of the signal.
Filter is the factory default and should provide
adequate filtering for most conditions. If you
experience excessive alerts due to radar detec-
tors in other vehicles, try the Filter 1 option.
Filter Mode does not override Highway or City
settings. See Option Select Mode to change
Filter settings.
Note: Option Select Mode band and filter on/off on the
XTR-475 is shown with the first bar “I” on the alert display.

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 detect-
ed, 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).

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.
FCC ID : HSXWH10
Care And Maintenance
FCC ID : HSXWH13
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.
FCC ID : HSXWH21
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC
Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
(1) This device many not cause harmful
interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
PROBLEM: No display or audio.
• Check fuse in plug; replace if necessary with a
2 amp 3AG type.
• Check fuse for lighter socket; replace if
necessary.
• Make sure lighter socket is clean.
ARE DETECTORS LEGAL?
In Most States YES!
Important: FCC requirements state that
changes or modifications not expressly approved
by Whistler could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.
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.).
PROBLEM: Unit alarms when vehicle hits
bumps.
• Check for loose lighter socket; tighten and
clean.
• Check connections at both ends of power
cord. Substitute another cord to determine if
cord is defective. Return defective cord to
the factory.
SPEED MONITORING
Radar Facts
Concerning trucks over 10,000 lbs., the Federal
Highway Administration (FHWA) issued a
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 (Federal Communications
Commission) 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).
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.
PROBLEM: Audio alerts are not loud
enough.
• Cancel Auto Quiet Mode or City Mode.
• Check audio level setting (see pg. 8).
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.whistlergroup.com/faq-detectors.asp,
before returning your unit for service.
Note: A radar detector will only alarm if an
officer is transmitting on any one of the above
radar bands.

SPEED MONITORING
SPEED MONITORING
SPEED MONITORING
POP™ Mode
Note: Having a radar detector capable of
detecting the VG-2 may alert you to the pres-
ence 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.
Laser Tips
POP™ Mode is a feature on some newer 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.
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 situa-
tion, 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!
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.
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 trans-
mission which covers about 3 feet at the same dis-
tance. For best protection, keep these points in
mind:
Other Speed Detection Systems
WARRANTY INFORMATION
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:
Consumer Warranty
This Whistler Laser-Radar detector is warranted
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, or if the housing
and/or serial numbers have been removed.
There are no express warranties covering this
product other than those set forth in this war-
ranty. All express or implied warranties for this
product are limited to the above time. Whistler
is not liable for damages arising from the use,
misuse, or operation of this product.
• Pacing - A patrol car drives behind you and
matches your driving speed.
• Vascar/Aircraft - The time it takes a vehicle to
travel a known distance is measured.
Radar Detector Detectors: VG-2,
Spectre
• 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 you
cannot see through. If you can’t see past a
vehicle ahead of you, chances are your detector
can’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.
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.
Whistler Laser-Radar detectors receive all current
laser guns which operate at a laser wavelength of 905
+/- 10nm.
