Sygic 2D Navigation 1

II. Getting Started

Sygic Fleet navigation is offline
navigation software and does not
require online connection to

operate. Online connection is only
necessary for optional add-on
services such as Traffic
information and crowd-sourced
Police trap alerts.

Your safety is of utmost
importance that is why you
should always plan your route
before the beginning of the
journey. For longer trips make
sure that you have a compatible
charger to avoid draining the
device battery.

While driving always keep your
eyes on the road and avoid
operating the software. Local
roadway signs and regulations

your own sound judgment while
