The rev point must be reset if you use your detector in a different vehicle. Important: When initially choosing your IntelliMute activation point, a setting of approximately 300 to 600 RPMs above idle is recommended. You can reset the activation point at any time to fit your individual preferences and driving style. NW NW ih ih The factory setting is IntelliMute off.
