NOTE: Extreme temperature conditions can cause SOLO's Battery Life Indication to be inaccurate until SOLO's temperature returns to normal.

I NTERPRETING A LERTS 13 A LERT E XPLANATION S OLO alerts intermittently. Rate and strength of alerts may be consistent or vary wildly. A patrol car is travelling in front of you with a radar source aimed forward. Because signals are sometimes reflected off of large objects and sometimes not, the alerts may seem inconsistent.
