Preface
Precautions
Please read this section carefully before using this product.
This product is intended to provide turn-by-turn instructions to safely guide you to your desired
destination. Please make sure that all persons using this navigation software carefully read these
precautions and the operating instructions inthe Voya 320 User's Guide.
Averatec, Inc. cannot accept any responsibility whatsoever for accidents resulting from failure to
observe these precautions.
Your personal judgment, traffic regulations, and common sense must always take
precedence over instructions produced by the software.
This product is not a substitute for your driving technique, driving knowledge or especially
your personal judgment. Route suggestions made by this navigation system should never
supersede any traffic regulations, your personal judgment, or your knowledge of safe
driving practices. If you feel that a route suggestion made by the software instructs you to
perform an unsafe or illegal maneuver, places you in an unsafe situation, or routes you
into an area that you consider unsafe, do not follow the instructions. Your personal
judgment, traffic regulations, and common sense must always take precedence over
instructions produced by the software.
When your vehicle is moving, keep your eyes on the road instead of looking at the
screen. If you need to look at the screen for a prolonged time, always park the car in a
safe manner and in accordance with all traffic regulations.
Do not select or input destinations, change settings or otherwise manually operate this
software unless you have parked your car in a safe manner, observing all traffic
regulations.
If you are responding to an emergency, it may not be prudent to rely on this system
unless you have no other means to obtain accurate directions. The database does not
include all of the facilities and streets necessary for emergency response, and the
system’s maps may not reflect recent changes in roads, traffic controls and driving
conditions. Use your own judgment in these situations.
The database utilized by this software is the most accurate and up-to-date database
available. Because of road closures, construction, weather, new roads and other
conditions, the database might not contain accurate information regarding all streets and
locations. If so, the system might not be able to correctly guide you on your route or may
inaccurately estimate the time needed to reach your destination. Please use your
judgment in these cases. Renewing your subscription to the database will aid in keeping
it up-to-date.
There are situations when the navigation system will incorrectly display the vehicle’s
position on the map. Usually this situation will correct itself automatically. Use your own
judgment at all times. If you need to reset the position, pull over in a safe manner
observing all traffic regulations.

VOYA 350
The detailed mapping software is provided by NAVTEQ and Netropa. The detailed mapping
software is as accurate and detailed as possible. Whenever maps are digitized, there is still a
possibility that some inaccurate or incomplete data can be found. It is because of these
inaccuracies that the Voya 320 is a travel aid and is not intended for precise measurement in
navigation or aircraft use. Differences between manufactured and shipped versions of the
software may be present; this software may be updated frequently. If the descriptions in this
manual are different from your software version, please follow the software version currently on
hand.

Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of an Averatec Voya 320 GPS receiver! This system can
provide an auto route to the destination of your choice using signals from Global Positioning
Satellites (GPS) orbiting the earth.
There are 24 GPS satellites orbiting the earth. A GPS device can calculate your position on the
earth if it can receive signals from at least three of these satellites. When it receives at least four
signals, a GPS device can also calculate your altitude (height above sea level).
To use the GPS receiver for the first time you need to charge the battery for at least four hours.
The Voya 320 comes with maps preloaded on the SD card so map loading is not necessary.
Maps of other countries are sold separately.

Important Safety Information
Check the conditions of the Voya 320 before driving. Operating the Voya 320 while you drive is very
dangerous. If you need to operate the Voya 320, park your car in a safe location before operating the Voya

Search the path to yourdestination before you drive. If youdo not fully understand the instructions from the
Voya 320,or the instructionsare questionable, refer to themap on the screen only when you areabsolutely
sure that you are in safe conditions.
Information from the Voya 320 such as voice instruction or the maps may be different from the actual
road conditions. The traffic signals and regulations on the actual roads must be observed, and special
attention shallbe paid to trafficsituations andpedestrians aroundyou.
Do not use the system for measuring drivingspeed or distance.The systemis only for navigation.
GPS signals may varyin sensitivity dependentupon locationof your car. You may suffer from weak signals
inside a tunnel or under an overpass or by a tall building, and sensitivity of signals may be affected by
overcast skies or thick fog.
GPS signals may notbe correctlyreceivedif you are inside a building, if there is anobjectinterrupting signal
receptionin thevicinity of the antenna, or if a system radiating radio interrupting signal is inside your car.
If youusethe Voya 320 aftera prolongedperiod of storage, it may takeextensivetimefor you tobeginto
receive signals,even though the Voya 320 is operating normally.
Installthe system on an appropriatelocation inside your car. Donot install the systemon alocation that
may causetrouble inoperation of the airbags, or obstruct your vision while you aredriving.
When you install the system, remove any foreign materials from the suction mount and surface of the
window, and affix the system while paying special attention to prevent air from being introduced between
the suction mount and the window surface. Any damage of the product or other objects inside your car
caused by detachment of the system from the window because of poor suction is the user’s
responsibility.
Do not leave thesystem under direct light or in a location subject to heat from the engine ofyour car for an
extensive period. Heating the battery may cause an explosion. Do not leave the system unattended for a
prolonged period when thetemperature is very hot, as in summer.
Do not expose the system to moisture, heat, or rapidly changing temperatures. Condensation may take
place inside the system, and cause damage to the system. If the system is exposed to high humidity, dry
the system immediately, and usethesystem only after you are sure thatthe system is free frommoisture.
If you disassemble,reassemble or modify the system without Averatec’sconsent, itmay cause abnormal
operation ofthe system. In such a case, you are solely responsible for the trouble.
The system contains lithium-ion batteries that may cause explosion or leakage of hazardous liquid. Never
give an impact to or destroy the system, and do not keep the system together with objects probable of
explosion ofgas or liquid, or fire.
Do not use the A/Cor D/C adaptor in a high humidity environment, and never touch the adapter with wet
hands.You may receive an electric shock. Do notwrap the adapter with sheetsof paper, vinyl or cloth while
you use thesystem,and make sureof properventilation for cooling the adapter. Pleasemake sure that you
are using the correctpower source as indicated on the housing or the package.
Do notexercise excessive force with the system and do not cleanthe system when thepower ison. Do not
use paper tissues- generating dust, or rigid materials -probable of scratching when tryingto clean the LCD.
Usea soft clothonly.
When you are not using the SD/MMC card, protect the system from dust or moisture, and pay special
