Getting started
Congratulations on your purchase of the system. Your system can guide you to the
destination of your choice using signals from Global Positioning Satellites (GPS) orbiting
the earth.
There are 24 GPS satellites orbiting the earth. A GPS device can calculate your position
on the earth if it can receive signals from at least three of these satellites.

Once you have charged the battery, you are ready to start the system.

button. The last screen before the power-off will be resumed.
Getting a GPS signal
To use the system to guide you to a destination, the system’s GPS antenna must be
receiving signals. GPS signals can be obstructed by ceilings, trees, and nearby tall
buildings. Signals can also be obstructed by the roof of your vehicle. For best results,
position your system where it has a clear view of the sky.

view other areas. You can zoom in and out, and you can find information about specific
locations.
Map view
If you have a GPS signal, the map view on the system shows you your current location,
indicated by a green arrow. If the arrow is red, you do not have a GPS signal, and if the
arrow is yellow the GPS signal is weak.
At the bottom of the map is a scale indicating your current zoom level.
Maneuver detail
If you have set a destination, the map displays additional information. As you navigate to
a destination, the top of the map displays the name of the next street, the direction of your
next turn and the distance to that turn.
At the bottom of the map you see the time, an estimate of how much time before you
arrive at your destination, the remaining distance to your destination, and your current
speed.
