2.4 Installing the hardware in a vehicle

Telephone cradle

To safely operate the navigation system in a vehicle we
recommend you use a special cradle for your mobile
telephone. This way you can ensure that the display is always
easy to see and that the driving instructions of the navigation
system are easy to understand.
You can purchase a special cradle for your mobile telephone
from a specialized dealer.

You can also obtain a universal cradle (that suits all type of
mobile telephone) online at

www.navigon.com.

There are so many different kinds of cradle so it is not possible
to describe their installation in the vehicle. Please refer to the
manual supplied with the cradle.

It is recommended that you connect your mobile telephone to
an external power supply, especially when driving long
journeys.

From specialist dealers you can obtain cigarette lighter charger
cables for virtually all mobile telephones. This cable is also
often available online from the manufacturer of your mobile
telephone.

If you want to power several devices from your vehicle’s
cigarette lighter, then use a multiple adapter that can be
purchased from specialist dealers. A triple adapter is also
available online at

purchased from specialist dealers. A triple adapter is also
available online at

NAVIGON under www.navigon.com.

2.7 Navigating with GPS

GPS is based on a total of 24 satellites that circle the earth
and, in doing so, are constantly transmitting their position and
their time. The GPS receiver receives this data and calculates
its own geographical position from the various position and
time information broadcast by the different satellites.

For a sufficient, precise positioning it is necessary to obtain the
data from at least three satellites. If you have the data from 4
or more satellites the altitude above sea level can also be
ascertained. The positioning is precise up to 3 metres.

If

MobileNavigator 6 has determined your position, this

position can be used as a starting point for a route calculation.
The map material includes the geographical coordinates of all

digitally recorded points of interest, streets and places. From
this the navigation system can calculate a route from a
starting point to a destination.

The calculation of the current position and its representation
on the map takes place once every second. So you can see
where you are on the map.

2.8 Important safety information

It is in your own interest to read the following safety
information and warnings carefully before you start up your
navigation system.

2.8.1 Navigation safety information

Use of the navigation system is executed at your own risk.

Caution! To protect yourself and others from accidents please
do not operate the navigation system while driving!!

Caution! Do not look at the display unless it is absolutely safe
to do so!

Before you Start - 11 -

User Manual MobileNavigator 6

Caution! The rules of the road and traffic signs must be
obeyed prior to following instructions from the navigation
system.

Caution! Do not follow the instructions of the navigation
system unless circumstances and the road traffic regulations
allow you to do so! The navigation system will automatically
reroute you to your destination when you have gone off
course.

Note: If you have not understood the speech instructions or
are unsure what you should do at the next crossroads, you
can use the map or arrow view to orientate quickly.

2.8.2 GPS receiver safety information

Caution! After installation, check all the safety-relevant

facilities in the vehicle.

Caution! Attach the GPS receiver in such a way that you can
still drive safely.

2.8.3 Safety information on installation into the vehicle

mobile telephone or for the GPS receiver in the functioning
area of the airbag.

does not constitute any safety risk, even in case of an
accident.
