Operation

1250/1750/2750 Manual 3/6/02 2:45 PM Page 23

If you are using the inverter while the engine is off, we recommend you start the engine every 30 to 60 minutes and let it run for at least 10 minutes to recharge the battery. We also recommend that the device plugged into the inverter be turned off before turning over the engine.

Although it is not necessary to turn off the inverter when turn- ing over the engine, the inverter may momentarily cease operation as the battery voltage decreases. When the invert- er is not supplying power, and turned on, it draws low amper- age from the battery (<0.65 A ).

For You Television Fan & Audiophiles.

Although the inverter is shielded and filtered to minimize sig- nal interference, some interference with your television pic- ture may be unavoidable, especially with weak signals. However, here are some suggestions that may improve the reception.

1.First, make certain that the television antenna produces a clear signal under normal operating conditions (i.e., at home plugged into a standard 110 AC wall outlet). Also, ensure that the antenna cable is properly shielded and of good quality.

2.Change the relative positions of the inverter, antenna cables and television power cord.

OPERATION

3.Isolate the television, its power cord and antenna cables from the 12 volt power source by running an extension cord from the inverter to the television set.

4.Coil the television power cord and the input cables running from the 12 volt power source to the inverter.

5.Attach a "Ferrite Data Line Filter" to the television power cord. More than one filter may be required. These filters are available at most electronic supply stores including Radio Shack. (Radio Shack Part Number is 273-105).

Note:

Inexpensive sound systems may emit a "buzzing" sound when operated with the inverter. This is due to inadequate filters in the sound system. There is no solution to his problem short of purchasing a sound system with a higher quality power supply.

For You Microwave Chefs.

The power rating commonly associated with microwave ovens is the "cooking power" which is the power being "delivered" to the item being microwaved. The actual oper- ating power requirement rating is higher than the cooking power rating and typically is referenced on the back of the microwave. If the operating power requirement does not appear on the back of the microwave, check the owner’s man- ual or contact the manufacturer.

2000, 1000 specifications

Whistler 1000 and Whistler 2000 are advanced radar detectors designed for high-performance performance in detecting police radar and laser systems. These models are praised for their sophisticated technology, offering drivers the confidence needed to avoid speeding tickets and enhance road safety.

The Whistler 1000 features a dual antenna system, which allows for increased sensitivity and range in detecting radar signals. This model is engineered to provide 360-degree detection, ensuring that no radar signal goes unnoticed, regardless of the direction from which it approaches. Advanced digital signal processing enhances the ability to filter out false alerts, focusing only on relevant signals, and creating a much quieter detection experience for the user.

One of the standout characteristics of the Whistler 1000 is its ability to detect multiple radar bands, including X, K, Ka, and even Laser signals. This wide range of detection is essential as it makes the device versatile enough to handle various law enforcement radar technologies. Additionally, the device features a built-in voice alert system, which gives users real-time notifications about radar detections without the need to take their eyes off the road.

Similarly, the Whistler 2000 builds on this foundation, offering even more advanced features. It includes GPS functionality for added precision in location-based alerts. This allows the device to remember locations of false alerts and minimize inconvenience in frequently traveled areas. Complete with an OLED display, the Whistler 2000 provides clear visual indicators alongside audible alerts.

Both models are equipped with City/Highway modes, allowing drivers to adjust the sensitivity of the detection based on urban or highway driving conditions. This adaptability is particularly valuable in reducing the number of false alarms commonly experienced in city driving.

Moreover, both the Whistler 1000 and 2000 are designed for ease of installation, featuring a windshield mount for secure and unobtrusive attachment. Their compact designs ensure that they blend seamlessly with a vehicle’s interior.

In summary, the Whistler 1000 and Whistler 2000 radar detectors are distinguished by their extensive detection capabilities, intelligent filtering technologies, and thoughtful user features. Together, they represent the cutting edge of radar detection technology, providing users with powerful tools for safer driving.
