Important notes for safe usage
Operating the Navigation Radio while you are driving can distract your attention from
A
the road, and possibly cause an accident. Enter information into the system yourself only
when the vehicle is stopped.
A
The directions provided by the Navigation Radio are suggestions only. The driver is
ultimately responsible for the safe operation of the vehicle and therefore evaluate whether
it is safe to follow these directions. Always use good judgment and common sense.
A
Obey all traffic signs and laws while driving.
The applicable traffic laws and the prevailing traffic situation always take precedence
A
over the instructions issued by the Navigation Radio if they should contradict one another.
Only use the Navigation Radio when it is safe to do so. It is more important to keep your
A
eyes on the road and your hands on the wheel.
A
Do not change settings or enter destinations while driving. If a prolonged view of the
display is required, pull over in a safe and legal matter.
A
Keep away small articles from children. Store small articles (batteries, screws) in places
not accessible to children. If swallowed, consult a physician immediately.
Do not disassemble or alter. Attempts to disassemble or alter may lead to an accident
A
and/or fire.
Due to constantly changing traffic conditions, we unfortunately cannot guarantee
A
100 % precision under all circumstances.
In certain areas, one-way streets, turning and entry prohibitions (e.g. pedestrian zones)
A
are not recorded. The Navigation Radio issues a warning in such areas. Pay particular
attention to one-way streets, turning and entry restrictions.

SAFETY AND WARNINGS
Guidelines and recommendations for safe
use of the Navigation Radio
Glance at the display only when necessary and safe to do so. If prolonged viewing of
A
the screen is necessary, pull over and stop in a safe and legal manner.
A
Do not input destinations, change settings or access any functions requiring a
prolonged view of the display and/or remote control while you are driving. Pull over and
stop in a safe and legal manner before attempting to access the system.
Make certain that the volume level of the Navigation Radio is set to a level which still
A
allows you to hear outside traffic and emergency services.
A
The guiding advice provided by the Navigation Radio are suggestions only. The driver is
ultimately responsible for the safe operation of the vehicle and therefore evaluate
whether it is safe to follow these directions.
In case you decide not to follow the suggested route, the Navigation Radio will
automatically calculate a new route and provide new suggestions (automatic re-routing
function).
The AUDIOVOX Navigation Radio (like all car navigation systems available today), is
A
an evolving technology. Under certain circumstances, the directions given by the system
could be inaccurate or conflict with current road conditions. New road maps or exit ramps
not yet available on the CD-ROM may present a conflict to the driver.
A
In case you need to find an emergency service do not use the Navigation Radio. It can
not be guaranteed that the used database CD contains all available emergency services in
your neighborhood. Use your own judgment and abilities to ask for directions in such a
situation.
The Navigation Radio does not take into account the relative safety of the suggested
A
routes. The suggested routes do not reflect road closures or construction, weight or height
restrictions, traffic or weather conditions, or any other factors which may affect the safety
or timing of the routes. Use your personal judgment for verification of the suggested
routes. Use the alternative route function or the via point function to get better route
suggestions, or simply drive the preferred route and let the automatic re-routing function
calculate the preferred route.
Please take care that everybody using the Navigation Radio has access to these
A
directions for use and reads the given recommendations and guidelines carefully before the
first use of the system.
Remember to wear your seat belt at all times when the car is in motion. This will help
A
you avoid impact with anything in the car’s interior.
The remote control contains batteries. Do not expose the remote control to direct sun
A
light and do not put it in your pockets. Exposure to high temperature may cause leakage of
the batteries. If you use the remote control exclusively in the holder, we recommend
removing the batteries.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Route & Sound – Navigating and listening to an
audio CD
With the new generation of our navigation radio units, you may insert
a map CD, plan your route, then insert an audio CD and the system will
still guide you to your intended destination. The navigation computer
(corridor) in its main memory. Within this corridor, the map CD does not have to be
inserted in order for the navigation to function. As soon as you leave this corridor, a
message will appear automatically, prompting you to insert the map CD so that the
navigation computer can reload the data required for a new route.
saves the road system in a defined area around the planned route
How does the navigation system work?
The position and movements of the vehicle
are recorded by the navigation system’s
sensors. The distance traveled is determined
by the vehicle speedometer signal, rotary
motion in curves is detected by a gyro sensor
(inertial compass). The position is determined
via the GPS (Global Positioning System)
satellites.
The position can be calculated within a range
of approx. 10 m by comparing the sensor
signals with the digital map on the
navigation CD.
Important notes on the function of your navigation radio
In principle, the system is functional with poor GPS reception, although the accuracy of
the positioning may be impaired by poor or interrupted GPS reception or errors can
occur in the determination of the position, which result in incorrect position reporting.
Start-up characteristics
If the vehicle is parked for longer periods of time,
the satellites continue their orbit. After the
ignition is switched on, it may take several
minutes until the navigation system receives
signals from sufficient satellites for evaluation.
During the start-up sequence, it is possible that the navigation system will report:
“You are leaving the digitized area”. The navigation system assumes that the vehicle is
located outside a digitized area. If other roads exist in this area, the navigation system
may issue incorrect messages. The navigation system assumes that the vehicle is located
on another road.
9
GENERAL INFORMATION
Comments
After transport of the vehicle by train or ferry, the navigation system may require a few
minutes for exact positioning.
After disconnecting the vehicle battery, up to 15 minutes may be required for exact
positioning. For this, the vehicle must be outdoors and the system must be switched on
in order to receive transmissions from the GPS satellites.
The digital road map
To be able to plan a route to a destination address, the navigation system not only
requires the current position of the vehicle but also a digital road map containing the
destination address itself and the roads leading to the destination address. This digital
road map is on the map CD which you insert into the navigation computer.
Real road networkDigital line model
The road system is stored on the map CD as a line model, i.e. even large junctions have
only one focal point that is approached by all roads in point-to-point fashion. Thus the
navigation system indicates the distance to the turn-off point as the distance to the
center of the junction. This is why the distances indicated on main road signs may not
agree with those of the navigation system. The road signs indicate the distance to the
beginning of the exit.
Areas with limited road information
In some areas, not all of the information on a road is available on the map CD. Thus,
for example, turn-off prohibitions, information on the direction of travel in a one-way
street or prohibited entry into a pedestrian zone may be missing. The navigation
system will display a warning if you drive into such an area. Local traffic laws always
take precedence over navigation system instructions. Always observe the road signs
and motor vehicle traffic regulations.
Topicality of the map CD
Roughly 10 - 15% of the road system characteristics change each year. Due to these
constantly changing traffic conditions (construction of new roads, traffic calming, etc.)
we cannot guarantee that the digital road map will be in 100 % agreement with
existing traffic conditions. We recommend that you always use the most current
version of the map CD for navigation.
10
SAFETY
The system has the following safety functions to prevent theft:
Security code
The navigation radio can be protected against theft with a security code. The unit is
disabled as soon as it is disconnected from the voltage supply (e.g. if it is stolen). It can
only be reactivated by entering the security correct code.
The security code can be activated/deactivated and changed. For further information
see “INITIALIZATION”, option “Security Code” ➽ page 30.
Anti-theft protection LED
When the navigation radio is switched off and the and the ignition key removed, the
red anti-theft protection LED above the POWER/VOLUME knob flashes.
The anti-theft LED is linked to the security code. It will not flash if the security code
has been deactivated.
CAUTION:
For reasons of safety please ensure that the operating panel is always flipped up (closed)
A
when driving.

Notes on audio CDs
You can play 12 cm audio CDs on your CD player. The use of 8 cm CDs (with or without
adapter) and of CDs with irregular shapes is not recommended.
Notes on map CDs
The navigation system is based on a C-IQ database, which is stored on a CD in encrypted
format. The CD contains map data for navigation as well as travel and traffic
information (TMC) for dynamic route planning. You can customize your navigation
package by activating specific components of the database.
TMC and dynamic route planning are not available in the U.S.
For further information see “C-IQ - INTELLIGENT CONTENT ON DEMAND”, ➽ 31.
Handling CDs
Avoid leaving fingerprints on the CD when
removing it.
Always store map and audio CDs in their
protective covers.
Always ensure that CDs are clean and dry before
inserting.
Protect CDs from heat and direct sunlight.
