Safety

Safety

Important

Satellite signals are required for this product to function in Navigation Mode.
There may be occasions within your home or building when the signal strength is limited and Navigation Mode may not be possible.
This is quite normal for products of this type. Your car may have an athermic heat reflecting
windscreen or windscreen heating that prevents the GPS receiver acquiring a valid signal. In these cases you may have to use an external antenna (not supplied).
The USB connector on the Satellite Navigation System is for future use as the maps are pre-loaded.

The Global Positioning System

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite based system that provides location and timing information around the globe. GPS is operated and controlled under the sole responsibility of the Government of the United States of America, who are responsible for its availability and accuracy. Any changes in GPS availability and accuracy, or in environmental conditions, may impact the operation of your Satellite Navigation System.

Using Your Satellite Navigation
System in the Car
When using your Satellite Navigation System while driving it is essential that you drive with due care and attention.
Never modify the settings or program your Satellite Navigation System while driving.
Only look at the Satellite Navigation System map when it is safe to do so.
Only follow the Satellite Navigation System instructions when the road regulations allow you to do so.
When mounting the Satellite Navigation System in your car make sure that it does not obscure your view or impede the operation of any driving controls.

Prohibited Areas

Do not operate your Satellite Navigation System in hospitals or near any electrical medical equipment.
Do not operate your Satellite Navigation System in aircraft.

Battery

Your Satellite Navigation System uses a Li-ion battery. Do not use it in humid, wet or corrosive environments. Do not operate or store your Satellite Navigation System in high temperatures (>60 direct sun light. Do not store in a microwave or pressurised container. Do not pierce or break the battery casing.
Failure to follow these cautions may cause the battery to leak acid, become hot, explode or ignite and cause injury or damage.
If you come into contact with leaked battery acid wash thoroughly and seek medical attention.
When your battery has reached the end of its life;
Contact your local council regarding available recycling or disposal options. Do not dispose of electrical products in the general waste.

Getting Started

Charging the Battery

We recommend that when you use the Satellite Navigation System in your car, that you always use the 12V car accessory adapter in order to maintain the battery level.
If the battery level is low, the GPS reception will be reduced. In order to optimize signal reception, keep the battery charged.
When in use in battery mode, recharge by connecting the 12V car accessory adapter when the battery is low.

Raising the Antenna

The Antenna must be raised for the Satellite Navigation System to receive satellite signals. The Antenna must be raised before the Satellite Navigation System is fitted to the cradle. Lift the GPS antenna as shown.
In order to optimise signal reception, the antenna should be as near horizontal as possible.

www.goodmans.co.uk

Assembling the Cradle

Assemble the cradle as shown below.
(a)
(b)

1. Locate the four holes (a) onto the lugs (b).

2. Push (b) upwards so that the two parts click together.

Fitting GNAV12 to the cradle

There are three lugs, one at the top and two at the bottom. These fit into slots on the Satellite Navigation System. Slide the bottom lugs into the Satellite Navigation System then click the top lug into the slot.
To remove the Satellite Navigation System from the cradle, push the tab above the top lug. Pull the Satellite Navigation System forward of the top lug and then up to release it from the bottom lugs.

signal. In these cases you may have to use an external antenna (not supplied). See below.
You can view the number of satellite signals the Satellite Navigation System is receiving and also the strength of these signals (see page 39).

External Antenna

If the GPS receiver fails to acquire a valid signal when mounted in your car it may be due to a heat reflecting coating or heating elements in your windscreen.
In these cases an external antenna will be required (not supplied).
Plug the external antenna into the socket on the left side of the GPS antenna.You should now receive a valid signal.

Care and Maintenance

Warning! Do not leave your Satellite Navigation System on display in your car, it will be stolen.
We recommend that you use LCD screen protection sheets to keep your screen clean and clear of scratches. These are available from most large stationary suppliers and computer retailers.
If necessary wipe the casing with the soft cloth provided to keep it clean.

Troubleshooting

The Satellite Navigation System will not switch on:
The battery may be discharged. Connect the car adapter.
The Satellite Navigation System cannot locate the address:
Make sure that the latest maps are installed on the Satellite Navigation System.
The address you enter has to match exactly the location on the map. Try using the free map function to find the location instead.
The Satellite Navigation System cannot find a GPS signal:
Note: Satellite signals are required for the Satellite Navigation System to function properly. There may be occasions within your home or building when the signal strength is limited and navigation may not be possible. This is quite normal for products of this type. Your car may have an athermic heat reflecting windscreen or windscreen heating that prevents the GPS receiver acquiring a valid signal. In these cases you may have to use an external antenna (not supplied). If the battery charge is at a low level, the GPS reception will be reduced.
If the Satellite Navigation System is being used for the first time, up to 10 minutes may be required to find a signal.
Make sure that the GPS antenna is raised and as horizontal as possible to optimize signal reception.

Care and Maintenance
You may be in a location where the signal cannot penetrate. Make sure that you are outside and not under a metal roof or canopy.
Try using an external antenna.
The battery charge may be at a low level. Connect the car adapter.
The Satellite Navigation System does not use the most obvious route:
This may be because there has been a new road opened that is not in the map’s memory. If when tracking the obvious route it looks like you are travelling across country then the road is not in the maps memory.
The Satellite Navigation System is on but will not respond to commands:
The software can sometimes take a few seconds to respond.
Try resetting the Satellite Navigation System. You can use the stylus to press reset.
