Speed Radar Audio/Visual AlertsWhen X, K, or Ka is detected, the band ID and signal strength is displayed. The audio alert is continuous and has a pattern like a geiger counter. The faster the beep, the closer or stronger the radar source. Laser Audio/Visual AlertsWhen a laser signal is detected the audio alert is continuous for a minimum of 3 seconds. • The Display Shows: Pulse Protection®Pulse (or instant-on) radar is more difficult to detect than conventional radar because it remains ‘off’ until activated to measure the speed of a targeted vehicle.When a pulse type transmission is detected, your Whistler detector sounds an urgent 3-second audio warning and the display shows: After the 3-second pulse alert, the standard alert pattern continues for as long as the signal is present.It is important to respond promptly to a pulse alert, since warning time may be minimal.SWS™ LASER/RADAR ALERTS VG-2 ALERTS RESET FEATURES TROUBLESHOOTING FCC INFORMATION SPEED MONITORING15 16 17 18 19 20 21USER GUIDEACCESSORIESWARRANTY INFORMATIONWARRANTY INFORMATIONWARRANTY INFORMATIONSPEED MONITORINGSPEED MONITORINGZ-19R+High PerformanceLASER-RADAR DETECTORThe Whistler Group Corporate Headquarters1716 Commerce Dr. Ste. 8 Bentonville, AR 72712Tel 479.273.6012 • Fax 479.273.2927Whistler Customer Return Center1412 South 1st St. • Rogers, AR 72756Customer Service Tel 800.531.0004www.whistlergroup.comP/N 260038-1 03G16 © 2016 The Whistler Group, Inc.

Replacement unit’s warranty will be based on the original unit’s purchase date.Service Under WarrantyDuring the warranty period, defective units will be repaired without charge to the purchaser when returned with a dated store receipt to the address below. Units returned without a dated store receipt will be handled as described in section “Service Out-Of-Warranty.” behind the targeted vehicle and receive an alert, response time should be sufficient. Any laser alert, regardless of duration, requires immediate action!Other Speed Detection SystemsSeveral 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:• Pacing - A patrol car drives behind you and matches your driving speed.• Vascar/Aircraft - The police measure the time it takes your vehicle to travel a known distance.Radar Detector Detectors: VG-2, SpectreThe 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, 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.NOTE: Having a radar detector capable of detecting the VG-2 may alert you to the presence of a speed trap.Laser FactsIt’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 transmission which covers about 3 feet at the same distance. For best protection, keep these points in mind:• 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. If you can’t see past a vehicle ahead of you, chances are your detector won’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.Whistler Laser-Radar detectors receive all current laser guns which operate at a laser wavelength of 905 +/- 50nm.Laser TipsIf you are the targeted vehicle, a laser gun can often determine your speed within a few seconds after you receive an alert. In this situation, there is generally no time to safely adjust your speed. However, if you are traveling near orFCC ID : HSXWH23This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.IMPORTANT: FCC (Federal Communications Commission) requirements state that changes or modifications not expressly approved by Whistler could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.Radar FactsA 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 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).NOTE: A radar detector will only alarm if an officer is transmitting on any one of the above radar bands.POP™ ModePOP™ Mode is a feature on some 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 cannotrespond to this brief transmission. SPEED MONITORINGWARRANTY INFORMATIONPROBLEM: Audio alerts are not loud enough.• Cancel Auto Quiet Mode or City Mode.• Check audio level setting.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, before returning your unit for service. Care And MaintenanceDuring 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.In Most States YES!Laser-Radar detectors are legal in every state (except 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.). The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) issued a regulation, effective January, 1994 which prohibits radar and laser detector use in vehicles over 10,000 lbs. Prior to the FHWA regulation, laws existed in New York restricting the use of radar detectors in trucks over 18,000 lbs. and in Illinois in trucks over 26,000 lbs.ARE DETECTORS LEGAL? 3.

If your unit has been correctly installed following the guidelines in this guide, but is not operating optimally, please refer to the troubleshooting guide below.PROBLEM: Unit does not turn on. • Check the fuse in the plug; replace if necessary with a 2 amp, 3AG type.• Check the fuse for lighter socket; replace if necessary.• Make sure the lighter socket is clean.PROBLEM: Unit alarms when vehicle hits bumps.• Check for a loose lighter socket; tighten and clean.• Check the connections at both ends of the power cord. Substitute another cord to determine if the cord is defective. Return the defective cord to the factory.VG-2 Audio/Visual AlertsNOTE: 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 detected, two beeps are provided, indicating an “all clear” condition. During a VG-2 Alert X, K, and Ka band signals cannot be received.When two or more signals are received at the same time, the alert priority is:1. Laser 2. VG-2 3. Speed Radar 4. Safety Warning SystemExample: If X band is alerting, then suddenly a VG-2 signal is detected, the VG-2 warning will override the X band alert.All user features can be reset to factory settings.• Unplug the Power Cord from the unit.• Press and hold the Quiet button.• Plug the Power Cord into the unit.• Wait for 2 beeps.• Release the Quiet button.• Unit is now reset to the following features and settings.Default factory settings are: 1.

Refer to “Option Select Mode” for instructions to activate battery saver mode feature.Field Disturbance Sensor Rejection (FDSR)Traffic Flow Sensor Rejection (TFSR)Recently many new products that operate on police radar frequencies have been causing nuisance alerts to radar detectors. These radar based sensors are installed alongside the Highway and more recently on vehicles used as lane change assist / blind spot detectors / collision avoidance systems. TFSR whenturned ON is designed to eliminate alerts from specific Traffic Flow sensors. FDSR when turned ON is designed to identify all radar based collisionavoidance systems that operate within the same band as police radar and provide a brief less intrusive alert to keep you informed and aware. A signal strength indicator will help determine your proximity to the source without the continued annoyance of audio. We suggest you turn FDSR ON if you are experiencing excessive random false alerts when behind select vehicles.Option Select Mode Entering Option Select Mode allows you to customize options such as Tone Select, Abbreviated Power Up Sequence, and VG-2 Mode. Press the Menu button to enter Option Select Mode. When selecting options, the Dark or Quiet buttons must be pressed within 20 seconds or Option Select Mode will automatically be exited.NOTE: To exit Option Select Mode press and hold the menu button.Highway ModeHighway mode provides full audio warnings any time radar (X, K, Ka, Safety Warning System) or laser signals are detected, and is recommended for open road driving.

When a VG-2 signal is detected, the VG-2 alert 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 detected again . 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.Vehicle Battery Saver ModeThe Vehicle Battery Saver Mode when selected automatically shuts off the detector after 3 hrs. 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 a and visual warning before it shuts off. During thisAlert PeriscopesWhistler’s new Alert Periscopes provide an added attention getting visual alert. The two extra LEDs flash on and off when the unit alarms to provide a unique visual alert. This alert can be programmed, through the Option Select Mode to: 1. flash for all alarms, 2. remain on, or 3. turn LEDs off completely.City/City 1/City 2 ModeWhistler’s Three Stage City Mode is designed to reduce the annoyance of automatic door openers, intrusion alarms and other devices which share frequencies with police radar. Generally,X band is used for these devices.• 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 • Press City button a fourth time to cancel City 2 Mode and returns the unit to Highway Mode. In City Mode, weak speed/safety radar signals give an initial alarm of two beeps, and then remains quiet until 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 is reported at high levels. In City 2 Mode, X-band is not detected.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.Integrated Real Voice®When selected, Real Voice® will be used to articulate the following:1. Band Identification2. Safety Warning System messages3.

Feature Engaged ConfirmationEach time a button is pressed, one beep confirms feature “on”, two beeps confirm feature “off”.Power Cord Connection• Plug the small end of the power cord into the unit’s power jack.• Plug the large end into the vehicle’s cigarette lighter socket.NOTE: Cord fits tightly into detector. When installing the cord, expect some resistance.Fuse ReplacementThe lighter socket plug is equipped with a replaceable 2 amp, 3AG fuse located behind the silver tip. To replace the fuse, carefully unscrew the tip of the plug.IMPORTANT: Unscrew slowly. The tip contains a spring which may fly out when disassembling. Insert the new fuse with the spring and screw on the tip. With use, screw cap on plug may loosen. Retighten occasionally.IMPORTANT: Some newer cars have a plastic safety coating on the inside of the windshield. The windshield bracket may leave permanent marks on this type of surface. To find out if your vehicle has this type of windshield, check the vehicle’s user guide or ask your dealer. We recommend that you do not leave the suction cup bracket on the window in direct sunlight. If the detector is removed, this may cause blistering of the dash in some vehicles.• Slide the detector onto the bracket until it locks into place.• If necessary, the unit may be leveled by bending the windshield bracket. Press the bracket release button and remove the detector before bending.Dear Whistler Customer,If you have questions concerning the operation of this Whistler product please call:Customer Service1-800-531-0004Monday - Friday • 8:00 am - 5:00 pm CTor visit our websitewww.whistlergroup.comPlease keep the receipt in a safe place.
