

T

heNAV ONE’s map database provides information on suggested

r

outeswithout regard to some factors that may affect the user’s

d

rivingexperience. For example, the system does not reflect all

r

oaddetours, closures or construction, some road characteristics

(

suchas road surface,slope or grade, weightor height restrictions,
etc.),weather conditions and similar factors. Use personal
judgmentor the navigation system’s detour function to
developan alternate route if necessary.

WARNING

Avoidthe following hazardous situations that could result in a
c

ollisioncausing severe injur y or death.



D

ONOT substitute this NAVONE for personal judgment.The route

s

uggestionsshouldnever supersede anylocal traffic regulation,
p

ersonaljudgmentor knowledge of safe drivingpractices. Before

m

akingany maneuverssuggested by the NAVONE system (for

e

xample,a U-turnor a left turn), verify thatthe maneuver can be

Installation

INSTALLATION

The NAVONE canbe easilymounted tothe vehicle’s
windshield with the included bracket andsuction cup.
Or,an alternativesecure mountingcan beused.

Itis important that the NAV ONE antenna in the top of the unit can
“see”the sky. Radio signals from the GPS satellites are weak and
cannotpenetrate solid portions of a vehicle’s structure.

Whenthe NAV ONE has been unused forseveral days, or has been
movedmore than 500 miles, it can take 15minutes to acquire
satellites.Leaving the unit onfor 20 minutes in this case will allow
fasteracquisitions after that.

IMPORTANT:Checkwww.cobra.com for softwareupdates.

P

utthe unit where it is visible

ata glance.

Letthe antenna “see” the sky.

WARNING

Observethe following measures to prevent a collision or other
c

onditionthat could cause serious injury or death.



DONOT position the unit in a location that obstructs the driver’s
viewof the road or vehicle instruments or controls.



DONOT mount the unit over airbag panels or within airbag
expansionspaces. The force of an expanding airbag can thrust
objectsin its path toward the driver or passengers with
i

njuriousresult.



DONOT drive the vehicle unless the unit is securely attached to
thewindshield with the supplied bracket and suction cup or is
fastenedby other reliable means to keep it from becoming a
projectilehazard inside the vehicle in the event of a violent
maneuveror collision.
