1. Welcome
TeleNav utilizes GPS position determination technology and access to your carrier’s data network. The Pocket PC provides both the Windows Mobile OS environment and access to your carrier network.
The TeleNav application provides:
GPS navigation that punctually guides you turn-by-turn to any destination address in the Continental US. If you miss a turn or get off-track, TeleNav will calculate a new route for you. You can enter one or more destination addresses by calling an automatic voice recognition system, entering them on the TeleNav website, or by keying them directly into the handheld. Optionally, you can input a remote origin and receive Driving Directions from that origin address to the selected destination address.
A Business Finder feature that allows you to find businesses or points of interest near your current location, around a waypoint, around an entered address, or around an airport. You can call the business first to check availability of an item, or get a reservation, and then navigate to it; or you can save the address for use later in the day.
Maps of the area around your current location; a marked waypoint; or an address you enter manually, or have previously entered. You can pan (adjust left/right or up/down) the map, and zoom in or out. You can also mark a point under the cursor as a waypoint.
The ability to personalize the application by selecting the use of US customary or metric distance units, language for audible guidance, volume and backlight level, timing of displayed graphics, etc.
A viewer that displays your current location relative to a selected waypoint, recent stop, or saved Favorite address; and to navigate relative to that selected point.
The ability to mark the current location as a waypoint that can be labeled.
A compass-like indicator presenting your direction of travel, location, and speed.
TeleNav’s servers support these enhanced services via your carrier’s data network.
2. Safety and Legal Notices
Please read this section carefully before using TeleNav
TeleNav 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.
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, audible cues, or manually interacting with the controls. When you need to enter data on your handheld using the keypad or study the display, please do so while the vehicle is parked, not while in motion. Should your ability to drive responsibly be decreased, please turn off the device.
WARNING: Install the equipment safely.

If you are using a handheld mounting kit, make sure that it does not obscure your vision. You may wish to charge the handheld while using TeleNav. If so, make sure the charging cable does not interfere with any of the vehicle controls.
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.
It is your responsibility as the vehicle operator to drive safely, observe all traffic rules and above all use your own personal judgment while driving. If you feel that a route suggested by the navigation software instructs you to perform an unsafe or illegal maneuver, places you in an unsafe situation, or routes you into an area which you consider unsafe, do not follow the instructions.
