A CAREFUL NAVIGATOR NEVER RELIES ON ONLY ONE METHOD
TO OBTAIN POSITION INFORMATION.
When showing turn-by-turn navigation data, a GPS unit will show the shortest,
most direct route to the destination. There are times when it may give directions,
such as a U-turn, that may be prohibited in some locations. While navigating, a
driver is responsible for noting all traffic signs and obeying all local traffic
laws. When following turn-by-turn directions, a driver must take advantage of
all available navigation tools, and must visually check to make sure a clear, safe
path to the next destination is available.
When a GPS unit is used in a vehicle, the vehicle operator is solely responsible for operating the vehicle in a safe manner. Vehicle operators
must maintain full surveillance of all pertinent driving conditions at
all times. An accident or collision resulting in damage to property,
personal injury or death could occur if the operator of a GPS-equipped
vehicle fails to pay full attention to travel conditions and vehicle operation while the vehicle is in motion.
Do not attempt to configure, adjust or enter information into your GPS
unit while driving.

iWAY 500C Quick Start Guide
We've tried to make iWAY operation as simple as possible. Five buttons
along the side of the screen launch various menus and turn the unit on
and off, but the main way you control the iWAY is with its touch screen.
The iWAY 500C navigating a route.
When you turn the unit on, whether it's in Map Mode or Music Mode,
you can control most of its operation using the touch screen. In Music
Mode, touch the play control buttons to start and stop music, or skip
among songs. In Map Mode, you can drag the map across the screen to
focus on an area you'd like to see better, or point to a nearby restaurant
to get detailed information and begin navigating to it.
The touch screen responds to pressure, so you'll have to actually push
against the screen to scroll the map or drag the borders of a zoom box.
With practice, you'll learn the amount of pressure necessary to operate
the unit effectively.
NOTE:
Use the provided suede microfiber cloth to clean the iWAY's touch
screen. Other cleaning materials could damage the screen – damage
that's not covered by this product's warranty. See Section 1 of the
manual under the heading "Screen Care Instructions" for details.
To use your iWAY's Music Mode, you'll need to copy some of your favorite songs onto the unit. The iWAY comes with a USB cable that you
can use to connect it to your PC. (Instructions for connecting the iWAY
to your computer and copying music onto it can be found in the owner's
manual.) The iWAY can play both MP3 and Ogg Vorbis music files.
Caution:
Use care when connecting or disconnecting the USB transfer cable
from your computer. Detailed instructions can be found on a onepage insert included in this package, or in Section 1 of the owner's
manual, under the heading "USB-to-PC Cable Connection".
