Preface
We appreciate your purchase of the HOLUX car navigation.
Please read all instructions thoroughly for a full understanding of the
products’ features.
Precautions and Notices
• For your own safety, do not operate the controls of the product while
driving.
• Use this product prudently. The product is intended to be used only as
a navigation aid. It is not for precise measurement of direction, distance,
location or topography.
• The calculated route is for reference only. It is the user's responsibility
to follow the traffic signs and local regulations along the roads.
• When you get off the car, do not leave your device on the dashboard

system can affect the accuracy of all GPS equipments.
• GPS satellite signals cannot pass through solid materials (except
glass). When you are inside a tunnel or building, GPS positioning is not
available.
• A minimum of 4 GPS satellite signals is needed to determine current
GPS position. Signal reception can be affected by situations such as
bad weather or dense overhead obstacles (e.g. trees and tall buildings).
• Other wireless devices in the vehicle might interfere with the reception
of satellite signals and cause the reception to be unstable.
• A car holder is needed when using the device in a car. Be sure to place
the device in an appropriate place, so as not to obstruct the driver's
view or deployment of air bags.

36
Maintaining Device
Taking good care of your device will ensure trouble-free operation and
reduce the risk of damage to your device.
• Keep your device away from excessive moisture and extreme
temperatures.
• Avoid exposing your device to direct sunlight or strong ultraviolet light
for extended periods of time.
• Do not place anything on top of your device or drop objects on your
device.
• Do not drop your device or subject it to severe shock.
• Do not subject your device to sudden and severe temperature
changes. This could cause moisture condensation inside the unit,
which could damage your device. In the event of moisture
condensation, allow the device to dry out completely before use.
• Take care not to sit on the device. We advise not to carry the device in
one's back pocket for that reason.
• The screen surface can easily be scratched. Avoid touching it with
sharp objects. Non-adhesive generic screen protectors designed
specifically for use on portable devices with LCD panels may be used
to help protect the screen from minor scratches.
• Never clean your device with it powered on. Use a soft, lint-free cloth
moistened with water to wipe the screen and the exterior of your
device.
• Do not use paper towels to clean the screen.
• Never attempt to disassemble, repair or make any modifications to
your device. Disassembly, modification or any attempt at repair could
cause damage to your device and even bodily injury or property
damage and will void any warranty.
• Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or explosive materials in
the same compartment as your device, its parts or accessories.
