2. Safety and Legal Notices

Please read this section carefully before u sing Sc out

TeleNav will not accept any responsibility whatsoever for accidents resulting from fail ure to observe common sense precautions. Your personal judgment, traffic regulation s, and common se nse must alway s take preceden ce over any driving direction produced by Scout.

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 dat a on your device usi ng 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 tu rn off the device.

WARNING: Install the equipment safely .

If you are using a device mounting kit, make sure that it does not obscu re your vision. You m ay wish to charge the device while using Scout. If so, make sure the charging cable does not interfere with any of the vehicle controls.

WARNING: Drive safely and use common sens e.

The vehicle operator’s personal judgment, traffic regulation s, and common se nse must alway s take precedence over the instructions provided by Scout.

It is your responsibility as the vehicle operator to drive safely, observ e all traffic rule s, and above al l use your own personal judgment while driving. If you feel that a ro ute suggested by the n avigation softwa re instruct s 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.

3. Data Service Options

The Scout application that you install on your device req uires a means of accessing the p ublic Internet, whi ch is typically provided by your carrier’s data network.

The Scout application communicates wit h the Scout servers t o get routing, maps, and p oints of interest via you r carrier’s data network. You do not need to purchase addition al data service s if you already have a data o r email services plan for your device. However, if y ou do not already have a data or email service s plan, you must ord er one from your carrier so you can use the S cout applicatio n.

4. Device Controls

5. Tips on Using GPS

In order to get information for navigation, devices are equipped with a GPS receiver that uses signals from satellites orbiting the earth. If this is your first GPS device, the following tips will help you get started.

 When using GPS, make sure you are outside with a clear view of the sky and no buildings or trees are

in the way.

 Remain stationary to acquire the initial GPS signal before you start your journey.  The time to acquire the first GPS signal of the day may take up to 2-3 minutes, so please be patient.  Keeping your device powered on will help make getting subsequent GPS signals much faster during

that same day.

6. Launching Scout

The Scout application that resides within y our device requires a subscription from you r wireless carri er and means of accessing the public Internet. Scout comes pre-loade d on your device.

1. On the device’s Main Menu, choose the Scout application.

NOTE: You can also make adjustments to you r route in Tools & Extras menu >> Preferences >> Navigation.

8.10.1 Edit Origin

Choose the Origin field on the Trip Confirmation screen t o select a new sta rting point for the trip.

8.10.2 Edit Destination

Choose the Destination field on the Trip Confirmation scre en to select a ne w ending point for t he trip.

distance.

 Prefer Streets – Use streets instead of highways if possib le.  Prefer Highway – Use highway s instea d of streets if po ssible.  Pedestrian – Find walking directions.

NOTE: The “Pedestrian” route style may m ake your walking rout e easier, for example by allowing you to take advantage of going the wrong way down one way stre ets. As alway s, use your common sense to determi ne the safety of any route.

After you choose one of the above options, you will see a screen where you can select what to avoid on your route.

NOTE: This screen does not appear if you sel ected “Pedest rian” as your Ro ute Style.

8.11 Initial Driving Directions

Within a few seconds of selecting a Drive To location, S cout calculates wh at it believes to be an opt imal route to your destination and tells you how to sta rt your trip.

If you are not moving, Scout may not know your direction of travel, so the first few driving direction s may be incorrect since Scout may initially make an incorrect assumption. However, once you start moving, Scout learns your direction of travel and provides an update d set of driving directions.

For more information about navigation views, see page 24

8.12 Moving to the Nearest Street

If you are not directly on a street, for example you are in a larg e parking lot o r driveway, you will see a screen that shows Scout’s best estimate of where you are with guidance on how to move to the first street.

8.13 Navigation Guidance Tones

Scout delivers spoken audible directions a s you drive. A Preference setting determines wh ether street name s are included in the messages or not. Enabling street names increases packet data usage.

8.14 Audio Replay

If you wish to hear an updated informational message fo r the current route segm ent, simply tap t he Turn icon or the Speaker icon

8.15 Miss a T urn?

Whenever you miss a turn, turn the wrong way, tu rn too early or too l ate, or otherwise get off the planned ro ute to your destination, Scout automatically creates a new route to your desired de stination, audibly anno unce, “Rerouting,” and give you a new set of instruction s.

If you realize you have missed a turn or have otherwi se gotten off the route, just keeping driving. S cout detects yo ur current location and recalculates a new set of drivi ng direction s to get you back on tra ck.

It may take approximately 15 to 30 seconds for Scout to update your route. If during this process you make additional deviations from your current rout e, Scout may have to contact its serv ers for another n ew route.

Since Scout requires access your carrier’s network, if you are off route and outside of the carrier’s cove rage area, you must return to your carrier’s cov erage area in order f or Scout to recalculate your route.

8.16 Navigation Views

The default navigation view is 3D moving maps, but you may wish to use the 2D Map instead. You can change the default navig ation view in Tools & Extras >> Preferences >> Navigation >> Moving Maps (see page 59 more information).

GPS signal weak, Cannot get GPS signal, or No GPS data

Move to an area where your device has a clearer view of the sky and can still connect with your dev ice. Please note that some car windshields that ha ve heat-reflective coati ngs may reduce the qua lity of the GPS signal. Y our device should announce when you have adequate GPS signal again.

Low battery

The GPS will not work if the device’s battery charge level is below about 15%. Starting with a f reshly charged standard battery, we have used Scout for around 4 hours before it beca me necessary to connect the ch arging cable. If you get a low battery warning, connect a charging ca ble as soon as possible. In some case s, you may need to wait a while f or the battery to become sufficiently charged so that the GPS receiver will work.

Network signal weak

If the carrier network signal is weak, move to an area where reception is better and try the function that requires network access again.

Scout encountered an error

Scout is having technical problems with the specific request that you ma de. This can be due to an address t hat it cannot find, or mapping data that does not allow routing from where you a re to where you want to g o. In this case, try to use a nearby address.

Scout not available

If you get an advisory message that Scout is not available, exit the application and then re -launch it. If the problem recurs, it may be due to a temporary server outage.

Unable to generate a route

Scout could not generate a route between the two endpo ints of the rout e. This may be a tempo rary error if you have a weak GPS signal when establishing the o rigin, but may be due to erro rs in the map data in the a rea around the destination.

17. FAQs

Why do I need the carrier’s data serv ice?

The data plan allows you to access nationwide rout es, maps, and Places co ntent from the Scout se rvers using t he data communication features of your device. These services a re different from your cellular airtime. To order a data plan, please contact your wireless carrier.

How long after I apply for the data serv ice until I can use my Scout app?

With data, you should be able to start using the S cout applicati on right after it has b een downloa ded.

How many devices can I install Scout on with my account?

There is no limit of how many of your devices on whi ch you can install Scout. To access Scout on different devices, simply install the app and then log in with your scout.me User Name and Password that you are a sked to create the first time you launch Scout. However, you can only use Scout’s p remium features (voi ce-guided, turn-by-tu rn navigation, automatic reroute when a turn is missed, etc.) on one dev ice at a time.

Does Scout use up my voice plan minutes?

Scout uses data to provide its navigation functions. Using data does not use any of your voice minutes. Ho wever, if you call a business from within the Scout app, you will be incurring voice minutes.

How do I increase or decrease the voice promp t volume?

Speaker volume can be controlled with the volume butt ons on the si de of the device.

How do I control the backlighting?

The backlight can be controlled from within Scout’s Tools & Extras menu >> Preferences >> Navigation >> Backlight menu.

How accurate is the GPS?

GPS accuracy can range from 20m (approx. 65 ft) to 100m (approx. 328 ft). Most of the time, the GPS is accurate to less than 50 meters (approx. 164 ft).

What are ideal conditions for GPS navigation?

Ideally, a device with a GPS receiver needs a clear view of the sky, star ting from about five to ten de grees above the horizon. Solid or massive obstructions can redu ce accuracy or block GPS signal s, and may cause extended initializatio n time (time to first GPS fix). Common obstructions include tall buildings, covered parking lots, tun nels, trees, and t errain features.

If you are parked in a covered parking lot or near a tall building, it is recommended th at you move to an open a rea and then begin to use Scout.

Why does GPS not work near buildings and other tall objects?

Your device requires signals from GPS satellites in order to wo rk, so it needs a clear view of the sky. Dense materials (such as concrete, rock, steel, heavy wood), tall buildings, terrain features (like mountain s, ridges, and cliffs), a nd large trees can block or degrade GPS signals a nd may make it impo ssible to det ermine your location.

GPS satellites are not always immediately overhead and could be anywhere i n the skies at any tim e, even low on t he horizon; however, there are enough satellites in orbit so that four or more will be in view of your device if not blocked by large objects, terrain, or dense materials.

How do I know that my device is receiving GPS sign als?

Scout alerts you if your device is not receiving GPS signals. If this happens, move to an area where there is a clear view of the sky so your device can receive GPS signals from spa ce.

What happens if I’m using Scout for driving directions and I lose the GPS signal while driving across a bridge or through a tunnel or lose the GPS signal for some oth er reason?

Scout remembers the speed at which you were driving before losi ng the GPS sig nal. Scout continues t o give you driving directions based on an estimate of the projected dista nce that you may have trav eled at your la st recorded rate of speed. Scout recalculates your current position when you regai n a GPS signal and adjusts your drivin g directions accordingly.

What does the speech recognition und erstand?

The recognition is optimized to work best for navigati on related tasks. T he following types of request are recognized:

o Addresses o Points of interest o City, states o Airports o Intersections

How often are your maps updated?

Our maps are updated quarterly.

I noticed there are stars next to some re staurants I hav e viewed or saved. Ho w is popularity rated?

Popularity is calculated by the user-generated ratings, av eraged by conside ring the scores of the rati ngs and the numb er of users that have rated the location. A location accrues points base d on how ma ny stars it is given by Scout users. When a location consistently achieves above-average rating s, its popularity cou nt increases. Negative rati ngs lowe r the popularity count of the location.

How long are ratings kept?

Ratings and reviews expire after two years.
