lntelliMute™
lntelliMute
allows
you
to
avoid
audible
alerts
you
don't
need
to
hear
because
you
are
stopped
or
moving
slowly.
By
sensing
the
RPMs
of
your
engine,
lntelliMute
knows
when
you
are
at
low
speed
and
automatically
mutes
alerts.
You
can
set
your
preferred
engine
RPM
activation
point
and/or
turn
on/off
lntelliMute
by
following
simple
steps
that
appear
on
your
unit
screen,
under
User
Settings
and
then
lntelliMute.

Note: lntelliMute
may
not
work
with
some
vehicles,
especially
hybrids
or
EVs
because
the
detector
cannot
sense
the
engine
RPMs.
In
such
case,
Quad-levellntelliShield
City
Filtering
or
Auto
Mute
can
help
reduce
unwanted
audible
alerts.

lntelliScope™
In
conjunction
with
detection
of a
Location-based
Alert
(LBA),
when
lntelliScope
is
turned
on,
it will
also
provide
you
with
the
direction/arrow
pointing
towards
that
LBA
location.
Follow
simple
on-screen
instructions
under
GPS
Settings
and
then
lntelliScope.
When
lntelliScope
is
turned
off,
you
will
only
get
those
alerts
that
you
are
approaching
directly
towards.
Speed
Alert
When
a
speed
is
set,
and
you
exceed
that
speed,
you
will
hear
a
chime
and
the
speed
displayed
will
change
