Controls and Features Power To turn STi DRIVER on or off, press the PWR button located on the front left side. When you turn STi DRIVER on, it goes through a sequence of alerts. If you prefer, you may program your STi DRIVER for a shorter power-on sequence. See the Programming section for details. Volume Press and hold the VOLUME/MUTE button, (or Mute button on the SmartPlug) located in the center of the front panel, to adjust the STi DRIVER's alert volume level. The audio will ramp up and down, accompanied by a bar-graph on the display. Once you've reached your preferred audio level, simply release the button. To change the direction of the audio ramping (down instead of up or vice versa) simply release the volume/mute button quickly press and hold it again to change its direction. Power-on indication After STi DRIVER's start-up sequence is complete, the alphanumeric display will show Highway, AutoScan, City or City NoX to indicate which sensitivity mode is selected. If you prefer, you can select alternate power-on displays. See the Programming section for details. Voice Alerts The STi DRIVER provides digital voice announcements (factory default) for alerts. If you prefer, you can turn off the voice announcement feature and have the STi DRIVER provide audible tones without the voice announcement. See programming section for details. AutoMute Your STi DRIVER has our patented AutoMute feature. After STi DRIVER alerts you to a radar encounter at the volume you have selected, the AutoMute feature will automatically reduce the volume to a lower level. This keeps you informed without the annoyance of a continuous full-volume alert. If you prefer, you can turn the AutoMute feature off. See the Programming section for details. Mute The VOLUME/MUTE button, located in the center of the STi DRIVER's front panel, allows you to silence the audio alert during a radar encounter. To mute the audio for a single specific signal, briefly press the VOLUME/MUTE button. After that radar encounter has passed, the mute will automatically reset and the audio will alert you to the next encounter. 8 Sensitivity Button (SENS) Brightness The "SENS" button selects the STi DRIVER's The STi DRIVER's brightness is controlled sensitivity mode.
