INSTALLATION
Mounting Guidelines
• Mount the unit as low as possible near the center of the w i n d s h i e l d .
• Do not mount your unit behind wipers, ornaments, mirro red sunscreens, etc. These obstructions have metal surfaces which can affect radar and laser signals and reduce critical warning time. (Regular tinted glass does not affect re c e pt i o n . )
• Some newer windshields have an Instaclear ™ o r
Electriclear™ type coating, which affect radar signals.
Consult your dealer or the owner’s manual supplied with your vehicle to determine if your windshield has this coating.
• Avoid placing unit in direct contact with windshield.
• To reduce the possibility of theft, conceal your unit when not in use.
Windshield Mounting
• Install the two suction cups and rubber bumper onto the bracket by fitting them into their holes.
• P ress the suction cups onto the windshield at the location you have chosen. I M P O RTA N T: 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 owner’s manual 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 v e h i c l e s .
• Slide the detector onto the bracket until it locks into place.
• If necessary, the unit may be leveled by bending the wind-

shield bracket. Press the bracket release button and re m o v e the detector before bending.
Dash Mounting
• Make sure the mounting location you have chosen is relatively level and is clean and dry. Clean with isopro p y l alcohol if necessary to remove any waxes or polishes.
• Separate the fastener strips. Peel the paper backing off each strip and adhere one piece to the dash and the other piece to the bottom of the unit, taking care not to cover the serial number.
Be careful not to place the fastener strip over the unit’s serial number. If the fastener strip is removed, the serial number may be pulled off the unit. Units without serial numbers are not covered under warr a n t y.

Slide on view
Insert into bracket mounting slot. Do not bend this section of bracket.
Power Connection
• Plug the small end of the power cord into the unit’s power j a c k .
• Plug the large end into the vehicle’s cigarette lighter.
Fuse Replacement
The 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. (I M P O RTA N T:
U n s c rew slowly. The tip contains a spring which may fly out when disassembling.) Insert the new fuse with the spring and s c rew on the tip. With use, screw cap on plug may loosen.
Retighten occasionally.
OPERATION
Power On And Self-Test
Each time your Whistler detector is turned on, an automatic self-test sequence confirms that the speaker and visual displays are functional.
During Power Up, all the LEDs illuminate, while the X, K, and Ka alerts are sounded in sequence. Immediately after the radar alerts, the red LEDs are momentarily canceled, then illuminated from right to left while the laser alert is sounded.
After the laser alert the 1st and 4th (3rd on 1710) alert LEDs flash and the Safety Radar alert is sounded. At the end of the self-test sequence the unit is in the highway mode.
U n s c rew the tip of the lighter socket plug carefully when replacing the 2 amp f u s e .

1710/1730 manual 10/19/01 3:57 PM Page 13
OPERATION
Feature Engaged Confirmation
Each time a button is pressed one beep confirms feature
“on”, two beeps confirm feature “off”.
Quiet Mode
The QUIET Button accesses one of two muting options.
• Manual Quiet: When an audio alert is sounded, you can silence the alarm by pressing QUIET. The only time you can engage/disengage Manual Quiet is during an audio alert.
• Auto Quiet (1730 only): Pressing QUIET before a radar signal is detected provides an alternate alert pattern, consisting of four beeps (indicating X, K, Ka or Safety radar) followed by clicking. The clicking will continue for as long as the detected signal is present or any new signal is detected within 20 seconds, becoming more rapid as the strength of the signal increases.
If Auto Quiet is engaged, pressing QUIET while the unit is alarming will cancel the beeps or clicking.
Pressing QUIET a second time when the unit is not alarming will cancel Auto Quiet mode and restore the continuous audio alert pattern.
10
OPERATION
City Mode
W h i s t l e r’s City Mode is designed to reduce the annoyance of automatic door openers, intrusion alarms and other devices which share frequencies with police radar.
• P ress City to engage City. Display shows:
• P ressing City a second time cancels City Mode.
In City Mode, weak speed/safety radar signals give an initial a l a rm of two beeps, and then remains quiet unless the signal becomes very strong. When the signal strength incre a s e s , two additional beeps are pro v i d e d .
Highway Mode
Highway mode provides full audio warnings any time radar (X,
K, Ka, Safety) or laser signals are detected, and is recommended for open road driving. Highway mode is automatically engaged after the unit is turned on and completes the self-test.
11
1710/1730 manual 10/19/01 3:57 PM Page 15
OPERATION
Vehicle Battery Saver Mode
The Vehicle Battery Saver Mode automatically shuts off your detector within 3 hours if you forget to turn it off. The timer is reset if the detector is turned off, unplugged or any button is pressed before the 3 hours have expired. The detector will a l e rt you with an audible and visual warning before it shuts o ff. Display shows:
The Red LEDs flash in an alternating pattern
During this warning you can momentarily reset the unit by p ressing any button. This will reset the timer.
If the unit has automatically turned itself off, press any button to turn the unit back on. You can manually engage the
Vehicle Battery Saver Mode by pressing and holding the City button until one beep is heard. The auto shutoff function will initiate after several seconds.
RADAR ALERTS
Radar Audio And Visual Alert s
When your Whistler detector encounters traffic radar, it provides a distinctive audio tone for the specific radar band detected: X, K, or Ka. At the same time, LEDs illuminate sequentially from left to right (see page 9). The green and amber LEDs are cancelled during an alert .
The audio alerts are continuous, but have a Geiger counterlike pattern to help you determine your distance from the radar source; the faster the beeping, the closer you are to the transmitting sourc e .
At the same time, illumination of multiple LEDs indicates re lative signal stre n g t h .
Pulse Pro t e c t i o n ®
Pulse (or instant-on) radar is more difficult to detect than conventional radar because it remains “off” until activated to m e a s u re the speed of a targeted vehicle.
When a pulse type transmission is detected, your Whistler detector sounds an urgent 3-second audio warning and flashes the red LEDs at their fastest rate. After the 3-second pulse a l e rt, the standard alert pattern continues for as long as the signal is pre s e n t .
It is important to respond promptly to a pulse alert, since w a rning time may be minimal.
12 13
1710/1730 manual 10/19/01 3:57 PM Page 17
RADAR/LASER ALERTS
Speed Radar Audio/Visual Alerts
When X, K or Ka is detected the band ID and signal strength is displayed. The audio alert is continuous and has a geiger counter-like pattern. The faster the beep the closer or stronger the radar source. Example:
1 Alert LED = weak signal, 4 Alert LED’s = strong signal
Radar Band Identification (1730 only)
When the Whistler 1730 encounters traffic radar, the Radar
Band Indicators confirm the band detected by illuminating one or both of the LEDs as follows:
X Band — Amber LED Only
K Band — Red LED Only
Ka Band — Amber And Red LEDs Illuminate
Laser Audio And Visual Alerts
If you are the targeted vehicle, a laser gun can often determine your speed within a few seconds after you receive an a l e rt. In this situation 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, re s p o n s e time should be sufficient. Any laser alert, re g a rdless of duration, re q u i res immediate action! When your Whistler detects a laser signal, the laser audio alert is sounded and the four red LEDs (three red LEDs on 1710) illuminate fro m right to left for as long as the signal is present, or for a m i nimum of three seconds.
When the laser signal is no longer detected, the audio w a rning ends, but the LEDs continue to flash slowly for three seconds, indicating a laser encounter has just occurre d .
14
VG-2 ALERTS
VG-2 Detection Mode (1730 only)
The VG-2, also known as a “radar detector detector,” is a special receiver used by police to detect signals radiated by a radar detector.
Press the VG-2 button once to engage, unit beeps once.
Pressing a second time cancels VG-2 detection mode, unit beeps twice and the VG-2 LED is disengaged.
When a VG-2 signal is detected the P/VG-2 LED flashes rapidly for 3 seconds and the VG-2 alert is sounded. After the 3 seconds the audio is canceled and the P/VG-2 alert
LED flashes at a slower rate. This cycle is repeated if the
VG-2 signal is again detected.
Model 1730
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.
Note: VG-2 must be turned on to receive VG-2 Alerts.
15
1710/1730 manual 10/19/01 3:57 PM Page 19
SAFETY RADAR ALERTS
Safety Radar Audio/Visual Alerts
Your Whistler detector detects the new Safety Warning
System ™ . In communities where transmitters are located, this provides advanced warning of various road hazards including accident sites, highway construction, emergency vehicles, etc. and enables you to respond more appropriately to potentially dangerous conditions. When your
Whistler detector detects a safety radar signal, it provides a distinctive audio tone and illuminates the first LED and the last LED in the signal strength display.
Model 1730
The first and last LED in the Signal Strength display flash to indicate detec tion of a Safety radar signal.
Model 1710
The first and last LED in the Signal Strength display flash to indicate detec tion of a Safety radar signal.
The Safety radar alert is displayed for as long as the signal is present and the audio alert is continuous, but has a
Geiger counter like pattern to help you determine your distance from the Safety radar source; the faster the beeping, the closer you are to the source.
16
CARE & MAINTENANCE
Care And Maintenance
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.

ARE DETECTORS LEGAL?
In Most States YES!
Laser detectors are completely legal in every state when used in automobiles or light trucks (under 10,000 lbs.).
Similarly, when used in automobiles or light trucks, radar detectors are legal in almost every state. Exceptions are
Virginia and Washington, D.C., which have local regulations restricting the use of radar receivers in any vehicle.
Concerning trucks over 10,000 lbs., the Federal Highway
Administration (FHwA) issued a regulation, eff e c t i v e
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 the state of Illinois in trucks over
26,000 lbs.

SPEED MONITORING TECHNOLOGIES
Radar Facts
A radar gun operates by transmitting radio waves at cert a i n f requencies which reflect off objects and are then 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.
C u rre n t l y, the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) p e rmits 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).
Laser Facts
I t ’s well documented that many radar guns cannot re l i a b l y p rovide the speed of a targeted vehicle that is traveling in a g roup 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 transmission can cover more than a four-lane highway at a distance of 1,000 feet, compared with a laser transmission which covers about 6 feet at the same distance.
For best protection, keep these points in mind:
• Because your vehicle’s license plate or headlights are the laser gun’s p r i m a ry targets, mounting your Whistler detector on the dashboard can i m p rove laser detection at short range.
• Do not follow closely behind any vehicle you cannot see through. If you c a n ’t see past a vehicle ahead of you, chances are your detector won’t e i t h e r.
• The receiving range of your laser detector will not be the same as a radar d e t e c t o r. Laser guns are most often used at short range.
20
SPEED MONITORING TECHNOLOGIES
Other Speed Detection Systems
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:
• 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
The Interceptor VG-2, or simply VG-2, is a 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, the VG-2 is known as a “radar detector detector”.
The VG-2 is the primary tool used by the police to identify radar detector equipped vehicles. If caught in a state where detectors are illegal, (see pg. 19) drivers risk losing their radar detector and receiving a fine. In addition, instant-on radar is almost always used in combination with a VG-2, leaving unsuspecting motorists vulnerable to receiving two tickets — one potentially for speeding, the other for possession of a detector.
Having a radar detector capable of detecting the VG-2 may alert you to the presence of a speed trap.
Be Advised: Model 1710 radar detector does not detect or hide from the VG-2. Only model 1730 provides VG-2 protection.
