How To Improve Your Car
The Escort 8500, also called the Escort Passport 8500, has been upgraded to the Escort 8500 X50, or, if you like, the Escort Passport 8500 X50. But it is not only the name that has been upgraded, the new Escort 8500 has been improved internally too. The Escort 8500 has an improved data range on all radar frequencies. The "V-tuned" detector makes use of an ultra-modern microwave receiver and in-house software for high sensitivity on conventional and "instant-on" radar bands. The Escort 8500 also offers more range on K-band and Ka-band laser. The Escort 8500 has two modes of operation, the city and the highway modes to keep you fully defended to the front and rear of your car at all times. The warnings are audio and visual, although there is also a silence button in case you find the audio warnings distracting. The escort 8500 will automatically sense radar and laser signals on three bands, namely the X Band, the K Band and the Ka Band. The Escort 8500 permits you to either maintain the factory default settings or to programme the unit to your own needs. A new user might find that manually programming the 8500 could become a bit confusing at first because of its wide range of choices, but with a bit of practice, almost anyone could learn how to programme it on the first day of ownership. However, if you have any concerns with the setup of your Escort 8500, it comes with a very informative and practical operator's manual and it might even save you on your auto insurance.
