Warnings and Notices
For your safety, do not operate the controls of the product while driving.
Use this product with caution. The product is a navigation aid. It does not
provide exact measurements of direction, distance, location or topography.
The calculated route is for reference only. Always follow the posted traffic
signs, speed limits and road restrictions.
Do not leave your device in a car under direct sunlight, without air-condition,
or without adequate ventilation. This can cause the device to overheat and
malfunction.
When the device is overheated, be sure to remove it right away from the
overheated area and place it to a place with cool air. Once the device gets back
to its normal temperature, it can start functioning again.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the United States
government, which is solely responsible for its performance. Any change to
the GPS system can affect the accuracy of all GPS equipment world-wide.
GPS satellite signals cannot typically pass through solid materials (except
glass). GPS location information is not typically available inside buildings,
tunnels, or underground parking lots.
A minimum of 4 GPS satellite signals is needed to calculate your GPS
position. Signal reception can be affected by weather events or overhead
obstacles (e.g. dense foliage and tall buildings).
Other wireless devices in the vehicle may interfere with the reception of
satellite signals and cause the reception to be unstable.
v
A device 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 airbags.
Do not mount where the driver’s
field of vision is blocked.
Do not place on the
dashboard unsecured.
Do not mount in front of
airbag panels.
Do not mount in front of an
airbag field of deployment.

Using the Device Holder
CAUTION:
Select an appropriate location for the device holder. Never place the holder where the
driver’s field of vision is blocked.
If the car’s windshield is tinted with a reflective coating, an external antenna (optional) may
be needed to route the antenna to the top of the car through a window. When closing the
car window, be careful not to pinch the antenna cable. (Cars with an anti-jam window
design may automatically leave adequate space as needed.)
Use the device holder to mount your device in a vehicle. Make sure that the GPS
antenna has a clear view of the sky. (See the Quick Start Guide supplied with the
device for the installation instruction.)
NOTE: Depending upon the specific model purchased, the device holder supplied with your
device may not look exactly the same as the picture shown.

2.2 Notes on Using Compass
Follow these guidelines for an accurate electronic compass:
Hold the device level.
Keep the device away from objects that generate magnetic fields, such as cars,
large belt buckles, computers, cell phones, etc.

(7.87 inches) away from metal objects such as car doors, dashboard, air vents,
etc.
Avoid playing the MP3 music with the internal speaker or connecting the AC
adapter. This will cause the magnetic interference to the compass.
