subscription and will be using the full TeleNav GPS Navigator application, please refer to the TeleNav GPS
Navigator v.52 User’s Guide, available at
TeleNav GPS Navigator application, please see page
The TeleNav Maps™ application accesses your carrier’s data network to provide you with driving directions and a
host of other services, including:
•Static driving direction screens that give you turn-by-turn directions to any destination address in the
continental United States. You can enter a destination address by typing on the device’s keypad.
•A Search feature that allows you to find businesses or points of interest near a location of your
choosing, such as an airport, a waypoint, or any other entered address. You can easily call the
business that you have found to check on the availability of an item or to make a reservation. You can
navigate to the business location now or save the address for later use.
•Maps of a certain area, such as around a marked waypoint or an address that you have previously
entered. You can pan the map (adjust left, right, up, or down) and zoom in or out. You can also mark a
point under the cursor as a waypoint.

units, the preferred Route Style, and so on.

Planning) and using the Search function to find businesses, churches, schools, and government offices. You can
also use the TeleNav website to add an address to your My Favorites list, manage your My Favorites and Recent
Places lists, and shop at the TeleNav Store.
2. Safety and Legal Notices
Please read this section carefully before using TeleNav Maps
TeleNav, Inc. will not accept any responsibility whatsoever for accidents resulting from failure to observe common
sense precautions. Your personal judgment, traffic regulations, and common sense must always take precedence
over any driving direction produced by TeleNav Maps.
WARNING: Keep your eyes on the road.
It is your responsibility as the vehicle operator to keep your eyes on the road and be an alert driver at all times,
ESPECIALLY when the vehicle is moving. The vehicle operator should not be distracted by the application
displays, by audible cues, or by manually interacting with the controls. When you need to enter data on your device
using the keypad or study the display, only do so while the vehicle is parked, not while the vehicle is in motion. Turn
off your device if your ability to drive responsibly is decreased by using the TeleNav Maps application.
If you are using a device mounting kit, make sure that it does not obstruct your vision. You may wish to charge the
device while using TeleNav Maps. If so, make sure that the charging cable does not interfere with any of the
vehicle’s co ntro ls.
WARNING: Drive safely and use common sense.
The vehicle operator’s personal judgment, traffic regulations, and common sense must always take precedence
over the instructions provided by TeleNav, Inc.
It is your responsibility as the vehicle operator to drive safely, observe all traffic rules, and use your own personal
judgment while driving. If you feel that a route suggested by the driving direction software instructs you to perform
an unsafe or illegal maneuver, places you in an unsafe situation, or routes you into an area that you consider to be
unsafe, do not follow the driving directions.
3. Data Service Options
The TeleNav Maps application that you install on your device requires a means of accessing the public Internet,
which is typically provided by your carrier’s data network.
The TeleNav Maps application communicates with the TeleNav servers to get routing, maps, and points of interest
via your carrier’s data network. You do not need to purchase additional data services if you already have a data or
email services plan for your device. However, if you do not already have a data or email services plan, you must
order one from your carrier so you can use the TeleNav Maps application. For contact information, please see the
“Customer Support” section on Page
56.
4. The Device Controls
The following keys on your device are referenced in this manual as follows. Depending on your device model, the
key placements and names may vary slightly (i.e., OK and Go). Pocket PC devices feature touch-screen
functionality for navigational ease. The screenshots throughout the document show the HTC 8925 screens in
portrait mode.
The 8525 device features a pull-out keyboard for easy typing. If the keyboard is pulled out, the screen will change
to landscape mode. If not, the screen is in portrait mode. TeleNav GPS Navigator can be used in either mode.

HTC 8925
The controls on the HTC 8925 are similar to the 8525. The 8925 features a screen that can tilt and an internal
Bluetooth GPS receiver.
Icons on the Blackjack 2 screen are laid out differently, so the screenshots throughout the document are slightly
different than what’s on the actual device. Application functions are still the same.

manuals can be found in the Support section of the TeleNav website:
To launch TeleNav, find the TeleNav icon on the device’s Program menu
and select it.
After starting TeleNav, the splash screen appears for a few seconds.
Login
The next screen will collect your login information. Your phone number is
automatically generated. Your phone number MUST be the same as your
carrier phone number beginning with area code so that when you call the
Voice Address Input System, you will not need to type it in. Correct the
number if it is not accurate.
If you already have a TeleNav account set up, the application will ask you for
a password. Please type in the 4-digit code that was sent to you through
SMS or email.
When the device reaches the TeleNav servers with a valid phone number,
the device will be registered to use TeleNav and will only present the splash
screen and Warning screens in the future. Visiting
changing the PIN will require you to repeat the above registration process.

Wa rning Screen
This next screen presents a warning for usage safety. If you agree to the
conditions, click Go.
Product T our
If you choose to continue, a pop-up screen will offer to give you a brief tour of
TeleNav. Choose Yes to view a tour of TeleNav Maps key features. To go
directly to the application, choose No.
NOTE: The product tour is only displayed the first time you log into TeleNav
and does not appear for subsequent logins. You can always access the
Product Tour again in the Tools/Extras menu.
You can use TeleNav Maps for many business and personal functions, including:
• Finding businesses, churches, schools, government offices, police and fire stations, etc.
• Getting static driving directions to virtually anywhere in the United States.
• Making reservations at restaurants, motels, and hotels.
• Sharing an address with friends so that they can get directions to that address.
• As a replacement for paper maps.
• As a personal information manager to keep a My Favorites list of places that you have visited or
called.
For example, you can use TeleNav Maps to find a motel, save the motel’s location to your My Favorites list so you
can easily find it again later, call it and make reservations, then get turn-by-turn directions to the motel.
You can also search for a particular type of business closest to a location of your choosing. For example, you could
search for a Mexican restaurant closest to the motel at which you have just made reservations.
In addition, you can also search for locations along your route. For example, you can search for all of the gas
stations that sell your favorite brand of gas on your route between Dallas and Houston.
