Delphi NAV300 User’s Guide
Section 1 About GPS/NAV300 Introduction
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a network of satellites launched by the
U.S. military beginning in the 1970s. The satellites continuously transmit accurate
time and position information, which is freely used by commercial and military
applications worldwide. GPS receivers, such as Delphi NAV300, are designed to
pick up the high-frequency radio signals from these satellites and use the
information to help determine your exact location. Today, there are many
applications that use GPS—from marine to automotive, aviation, and military.
There are 24 satellites in total, orbiting approximately 12,000 miles above the
Earth. While a GPS receiver can detect signals from up to 12 satellites at any
one time, only three are needed to provide the two-dimensional position (latitude
and longitude), or “fix,” that is required for vehicle and marine navigation
systems. Aviation applications also need altitude, and therefore need information
from at least four satellites.
The Delphi NAV300 is designed specifically to use the continuous stream of GPS
information to help find your current position and to calculate the best route to
your desired destination using the road maps stored in its memory. With voice
and visual commands, the Delphi NAV300 helps guide you to your destination.
For best results when using Delphi NAV300:
• When the Delphi NAV300 is connected to power for the first time, leave it
connected for about two hours to charge the battery.
• Plan your route before your journey. If you need to set up a new itinerary en
route, safely park your vehicle before making any changes.
• GPS signals cannot pass through solid materials other than glass. So when
you are inside a building or tunnel, GPS may not be available. Likewise,
signal reception can be affected by overhead cover such as trees or
metalized windshield glass. Wireless devices may also interfere with signals,
causing variable reception.
• While the Delphi NAV300 can be operated by finger touch, more precise
control can be achieved using the stylus pen. Do not use other sharp objects,
which can damage the LCD screen.
• Never clean the Delphi NAV300 with the power on. Use a soft, lint-free cloth
moistened with water to wipe the screen and the exterior. Do not use paper
towels to clean the screen. Do not place anything on top of the Delphi
NAV300. Do not drop the Delphi NAV300 or subject it to severe shock.
• Keep the Delphi NAV300 away from excessive moisture and extreme
temperatures. Do not subject the Delphi NAV300 to sudden and severe
temperature changes that could cause condensation inside. In the event of
moisture condensation, allow the Delphi NAV300 to dry out completely before
use.
- 5 -
Delphi NAV300 User’s Guide
• Always disconnect the receiver from the power supply when leaving the car
parked for a long period or when not using the system during travel. Failure to
do so could drain the vehicle’s battery as the Delphi NAV300 continuously
draws power, even when the power is off.
Warning: Never attempt to disassemble, repair, or make any modification
to the Delphi NAV300. Doing so could result in personal injury, death, and/or
damage to the Delphi NAV300 and/or to your vehicle.
Warning: This device contains a non-replaceable lithium-ion internal
battery that can burst or explode, releasing hazardous chemicals.
To avoid risk of fire or explosion, do not attempt to replace the Delphi NAV300
battery. The Delphi NAV300 battery is not user-replaceable.
To reduce risk of fire or injury, never disassemble, crush, puncture, or dispose of
the Delphi NAV300 in fire or water.
Warning: Never use the power adaptor in a high-moisture environment, or
touch it when your hands or feet are wet. Make sure there is adequate
ventilation around the adaptor when in use, and do not cover it with paper, vinyl,
cloth (including the carrying case) or any other material. The adaptor must be
connected to the correct power source. Do not attempt to service the unit if its
power lead or body becomes damaged or exposed to excess moisture.
Caution: Keep SD cards in a well-protected case to avoid dust and
humidity. Make sure no foreign objects can enter the SD slot.

such as video (avi, MPEG4, Xvid), images (jpg, gif, png) and/or audio (MP3 or
wav) files.
An SD card can be plugged into the slot in the Delphi NAV300 and can be
purchased with various memory capacities. An SD card with 256 megabytes of
memory or more can be used in the Delphi NAV300. Delphi recommends the use
of following SD card brands: Kingston, Kingmax, Transcend, and SanDisk.
Caution: Do Not ADD or DELETE files from the SD card containing the
map data.
Accessories and Replacement Parts

Section 3 Installing Delphi NAV300 in Your Vehicle
Warning: To avoid personal injury, follow the safety guidelines and
installation instructions provided so that the Delphi NAV300 does not obstruct
the view of the driver, interfere with the operation of any airbags and safety
features in the vehicle, or become airborne in the case of an accident. Do not
attempt to install Delphi NAV300 while driving.
Before installing the Delphi NAV300, check whether your vehicle is fitted with a
heat-reflecting or heated windshield. If so, you will need to purchase an external
antenna from your retailer to allow your unit to pick up GPS signals.
NOTE: Alternative mounting options may be available for your vehicle make and
model. Contact your retailer or Delphi for more information.
NOTE: In the state of California and Minnesota, it is necessary to use the
dashboard mount, according to state law.
Follow these steps to mount the suction mount to the windshield:
1. Flip up the GPS Antenna.
Pull the lever away from the windshield/dashboard mount to remove the suction
cup. Pull the release tab to release the suction. If the suction cup does not
adhere, clean the mounting area of the windshield with a cloth dampened with
isopropyl alcohol. Let the area dry, then reapply the suction cup. Be sure to
mount the unit when the windshield is warm – it may be difficult when the
windshield is cold.
2. Using the two tabs on the bottom of the cradle,
locate the Delphi NAV300 and rotate it
rearward. While pushing in the two release
buttons, continue rotation until the unit is firmly
seated in the cradle.
3. Release the two grey buttons. Reverse the

Section 8 Traffic Message Channel (TMC)
NOTE: This function can only be activated after installation of external TMC
antenna and optional Real-Time Traffic Kit.
Traffic Message Channel (TMC) is a subscription service that provides navigation
systems with traffic information broadcast by radio stations. The Delphi NAV300
has an optional receiver that allows subscribers to receive up-to-the-minute traffic
information and allows you to adjust your route accordingly.
Check with www.shopdelphi.com for additional information on adapter kits that
can be plugged into Delphi NAV300 and subscriber services. Once you have
activated TMC per the adapter kit’s instructions, use the information in this
section to take advantage of the features of TMC on the Delphi NAV300.
Using TMC
TMC provides the Delphi NAV300 with the latest traffic information to allow
routes to be recalculated around traffic jams and other obstructions. If TMC is
activated, you may display the traffic information on screen.
Initialization of TMC begins as soon as GPS signals are received. The current
status of TMC service is indicated by an icon on the right side of the screen:
From the Navigation Menu, tap Options and select “Traffic” to display the TMC
settings.
This screen allows you to filter the types of messages to be displayed.
