1. Welcome
TeleNav 3.6 exploits the integration of GPS position determination technology, the Java programming environment, and access to Nextel’s packet data network that are all built-in to the Motorola i710, i730, i733, i736, and i830 mobile phones. TeleNav 3 .6 offers basic free services, and one level of enhanced paid subscription services.
The free services (GPS Tools) include:
1. A compass-like indicator presenting your direction of travel, location, and speed.
2. The ability to mark your current location as a waypoint that you can label.
3. A viewer that allows you to see your current location relative to a selected waypoint, and to navigate relative to that selected waypoint.
None of these basic GPS services require you to have Nextel packet data service. They all operate solely within the mobile phone itself.
The paid TeleNav GPS services include:
1. GPS navigation than 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 keying them directly into the phone. Optionally, the user can input a remote origin and receive Driving Directions from that origin address to a selected destination address.
2. A Biz finder look up 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.
3. 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, or zoom in or out.
4. A suite of Locator functions that allow you to: a) see your current location as an approximate street
address rather than latitude and longitude; b) send your location to a friend; c) request and receive the locations of one or more friends and d) send your location to the TeleNav website so someone with the access control PIN you provide can find you.
TeleNav’s servers support each of these services via the Nextel packet data network.
2. New in This Release
This v3.6 release of TeleNav extends v3.0, the application targeted to the i860. The driving directions screen layout on this version offers a different presentation of required turns that must be executed in rapid succession. Previously this was done using complex graphics, but now it is done using a next turn graphic inset. Every few seconds, the total distance remaining to complete a trip is replaced with an estimate of the total time remaining. While there is still a preference for routing type, the user now has the option of changing the routing type when the destination address confirmation screen is presented. Adding a Menu that improves navigating through the application has enhanced the Biz Finder, but a similar menu has been removed from GPS Navigation. Thumbnail maps that appeared at turns on v3.0 have been removed.

3. 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 phone 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 phone mounting kit, make sure that it does not obscure your vision. You may wish to charge the phone 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.
4. Getting Started with TeleNav
NOTE: Unless you are just using the GPS Tools described below, the TeleNav application that resides within your phone requires a TeleNav subscription, and Nextel’s Total Connect packet data service.
There are 4 steps you will need to follow before your TeleNav service can become fully active:
STEP 1: Set-up your TeleNav account with your Nextel dealer or by visiting http://www.telenav.com
Your Nextel dealer offers: a) limited monthly use TeleNav service packaged with Total Connect packet data, and b) unlimited use TeleNav service with Total Connect sold separately according to your forecast data usage.
You can also go to www.telenav.com and click on the “SIGNUP” button to set up a TeleNav-only subscription paid by credit card.
Regardless of which approach you take, you are strongly encouraged to visit www.telenav.com to personalize your account, and learn about the other powerful features the website offers!
STEP 2: Nextel unlimited use and TeleNav credit card subscribers also need to order Total Connect
Contact your dealer or Nextel’s Customer Service Dept. on a phone other than your Nextel phone at 1-866-265-
8305. Ask the service representative to add the Total Connect plan with a private IP address (not public) of your
© TELENAV 2003-5 PAGE 6 OF 33
choice. The following table is provided for your use in determining whether you will need the 1 megabyte, 5 megabyte, or 10 megabyte Total Connect plan.
TeleNav Function and Demand
1
120 Maps per month using a new keypad entered reference address (only 1 zoom or pan)
60 Non-GPS Driving Directions per month using 2 new keypad entered endpoint addresses for trips less than 60 miles
50-80 GPS Navigation routes per month using a new keypad entered destination addresses for trips less than 60 miles without street name announcement, and without intersection maps
50-80 GPS Navigation routes per month using a new keypad entered destination addresses for trips less than 60 miles WITH street name announcement, but without intersection maps
20-30 GPS Navigation routes per month using a new keypad entered destination addresses for trips less than 60 miles without street name announcement, but WITH intersection maps
140 TeleNav Biz Finder look ups per month using a new keypad entered search point address (look ups only, no navigation, no directions, no maps)
Expected Usage
1 megabyte per month
1 megabyte per month
1 megabyte per month
5 megabytes per month
1 megabyte per month
1 megabyte per month
NOTE: Using voice address input or the TeleNav website to enter addresses instead of phone keypad entry will reduce network usage by about 20%, but will incur voice minute usage or Internet charges. Our usage data shows that, on average, only 70 seconds is required to dictate an address.
STEP 3: Configure the GPS privacy settings in your phone so that the TeleNav Java application can obtain position fixes from the internal receiver.
STEP 4: Place the phone so it can receive the GPS satellite signals from space. These signals are very faint, and come from virtually every direction in the sky as the satellites move through their orbits. We recommend placing the phone in a mount above the dashboard of your vehicle for best results.

5. The Handset Control Keys
Placement of the control keys varies slightly depending upon the specific handset model.
Left Option Ke
Menu Key
OK Key
Send Key
NOTE: In this guide, boldfaced upper-case words like SELECT refer to labels that appear in the lower left or lower right corner of the phone’s display directly above an Option Key. If this guide asks you to press SELECT, it means you should find the Option Key below the SELECT label on the display, and press it. TeleNav 3.6 is operated using the Option Keys. If you are to press the OK key shown above, it will be expressly called the OK key.
Right Option Ke
4-way Navigation Key
End/Home Key
6. Installing TeleNav on Your Phone
NOTE: You need at least 366-368 kilobytes (KB) of program memory depending on phone model and 26 kilobytes of data space to install and use TeleNav on your phone. In compressed form the JAR that is downloaded containing TeleNav 3.6 is 211 kilobytes in size.
Follow these steps to install the TeleNav program to your phone:
a) Press the Menu key on your phone and using the 4-way Navigation Key, highlight Java Apps (or the Java
Apps icon), and press the OK key. Then highlight Download and press the OK key. If the downloader has not been installed you will need to wait for installation to complete, and then press the OK key again.
b) If instructions on using the downloader appear, press BYPASS. Then, the downloader will contact
Nextel’s server to obtain the top-level catalog for your phone. In this top-level catalog, highlight Subscriptions, and press SELECT.
c) After the Subscriptions catalog loads, highlight AGPS TeleNav 3.6 or TeleNav 3.6 in the list of
applications, and press SELECT. Read the descriptive application details, and press GET IT.
d) Wait while TeleNav downloads to your phone. This may take 1 to 2 minutes.
e) Once TeleNav is downloaded, you will see a screen with further instructions. Please read the instructions
carefully, and then press EXIT.
f) Highlight TeleNav 3.6 and press the OK key to start software installation. As the TeleNav software
installs, a check mark appears to the left of each row on the display. When installation is complete, press DONE and you will be taken back to the main Menu.
If during the installation process the phone reports that it does not have enough space to install TeleNav, you may have to remove one of the other Java programs to create space for TeleNav. You can remove any
© TELENAV 2003-5 PAGE 8 OF 33
program except Java System and Download. If you accidentally remove either of these, you must take your phone to a Nextel service center to have the software reinstalled!
To remove a program, highlight the program you want to delete, press the Menu key, highlight Deinstall (or Remove) and press the OK key to remove the program. You will be asked to confirm the removal. Follow the steps on the screen until the program has been removed then perform the above steps.
7. Access Permissions
GPS Privacy
Your phone restricts access to its GPS location data. The phone’s GPS receiver can be in one of three modes: 1) Restricted, 2) Unrestricted or 3) By Permission. To allow TeleNav to access the GPS data may require changing the Privacy Settings.
First, press the Menu key, highlight GPS (or the satellite icon) and press the OK key. (If you do not find it in the first page of Menu items, press MORE.) From the GPS menu, select Privacy, and press the OK key. In the Privacy menu, scroll down until Unrestricted or By Permission is highlighted, and press the OK key. Then, press BACK twice
to return to the main screen. Unrestricted means that any application can access GPS data, and By Permission means that only those applications you allow to do so can access GPS data. We recommend setting the control to By Permission.
Second, if you set the Privacy control to By Permission, you have to grant the TeleNav application access to the GPS data. This activity only occurs the first time you use TeleNav after changing the privacy setting to By Permission.
1. To do this press the Menu key and then select Java Apps, and press the OK key.
2. Once in the Java Apps menu highlight TeleNav 3.6 and press the OK key.
3. Because the phone has not tested the Privacy Settings for TeleNav before, it will challenge this action, and ask if you want to grant permission. You should press GRANT. Then, it will ask you to chose from three options, highlight ALWAYS, and press the OK key.
4. TeleNav will then auto-resume so that the handset system can present its request for Auto Invocation permissions.
Future invocations of the TeleNav application only require you to press the Menu key, select Java Apps, highlight TeleNav, and press the OK key. You may wish to use the Personalize feature of your phone to promote TeleNav to one of the option keys as described in Section 9.
Auto Invocation Permissions
As explained above, TeleNav resumes after you deal with the GPS privacy issues, and will then ask you about Auto Invocation permission. This feature allows TeleNav’s servers to awaken TeleNav even though it is turned off so that it can report your location to a requestor to whom you have granted location access. If you want this capability to work, you should GRANT this permission ALWAYS.

8. Using TeleNav
Launching the Application
To launch TeleNav on your phone, press the Menu key, highlight Java Apps (or the Java Apps icon) and press the OK key. In the Java Apps menu, highlight TeleNav (or the TeleNav icon), and press the OK key. From this point
on in this guide, key presses refer to the Option Keys below the screen labels bearing the key functional names.
After starting TeleNav, the banner screen will appear for a few seconds. The first time TeleNav is used, the next screens will explain what it is, and how to get signed up for TeleNav service.
Logging In
If you choose to use any of the paid services, you will be asked if you have a TeleNav account and Nextel Total Connect packet data service. If you have already created a TeleNav account and ordered Total Connect, press YES, but if not, click NO; and either order TeleNav by calling Nextel customer care at 800-639-6111, or
1. Go to www.telenav.com using a PC-based Web browser to create an account, or
2. Call 1-88-TeleNav-4 for customer service.
Next you must agree to the TeleNav software license and terms of use by pressing YES.
