1. Welcome

TeleNav GPS Navigator™ 5.8 utilizes the integration of GPS position determination technology, the Android™ programming environment, and access to your wireless carrier’s data netwo rk. Your mobile device provides both the Android environment and access to the wireless network. The TeleNav GPS Navigator application provides:
GPS navigation that punctually guides you turn-by-turn to any destination address in the Continental
U.S and Canada. If you miss a turn or get off-track, TeleNav GPS Navigator will calculate a new route
for you. You can enter one or more destination addresses by keying or speaking dire ctly into the
phone, entering them on the TeleNav GPS Navigator website, or by pulling your contacts from the
Android device Address Book. Optionally, you can input a remote origin and receive Driving
Directions from that origin address to the selected destination address. Audio and visual traffic alerts while driving or viewing maps, as well as traffic rerouting capabilities to
minimize delays on your trip.
The ability to view any traffic incidents on the map of the route.  A Directory feature that allows you to find businesses or points of interest nea r your current location,
around a Favorite, 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. You can also save the
address for use later in the day. Maps of the area around your current location, a marked Favorite, or an address you enter manually
or have previously entered. You can pan the map (adjust left/right/up/down), and zoom in or out. You
can also mark a point under the cursor as a Favorite.
The ability to mark the current location as a Favorite that can be labeled.  The ability to personalize the application by selecting the use of U.S. customary or metric distance
units, the language for audible guidance, the volume and map colors, etc. TeleNav GPS Navigator’s servers support these enhanced services via the carrier’s data network.

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.

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.

Address – Speak It

Instead of typing in your address, intersection, city, business, or airport, you can use the voice-recognition system to dictate the address. AT&T Navigator’s auto voice entry system can be utilized in two different ways:
If you set your Speech Input method in the Share & More >> Preferences >> Speech Input >> Input
Method area to “Call In,” TeleNav GPS Navigator will place a call to the Voice Address Input System. To use this system, follow the voice prompts to dictate an address. When you hang up the call, you will be directed back to the screen you were on. The new address can be found in your Recent Places list.
© 2010 TeleNav, Inc. Page 19 of 71
If you set your Speech Input method in the Share & More >> Preferences >> Speech Input >> Input
Method area to “Speak In Directly,” you can dictate your address from within TeleNav GPS Navigator as described below:
1. On the Drive To menu, choose Address, Intersection, City, Business, or Airport. Then choose “Say It.”
2. Follow the voice prompts to dictate your address. The prompts will vary, depending on the menu from which you accessed the “Say It” option.
TIP: Hold down the green microphone icon and wait for the beep. Then speak
clearly into your device. Release the icon after you are finished talking.
3. The matching address is then displayed on your screen for confirmation. The address is also automatically saved to your Recent Places list.
The following section contains an example of what you might hear and say when using the Call In option for entering an address (the prompts are different if you chose Search menu >> Speak It):
TeleNav GPS Navigator prompt>> Thank you for c alling TeleNav GPS Nav igator! Le t’s get your destina tion. Is it a street address, an intersection, or an airpo rt?
Your response> Street Address
OK, Tell me the 5 digit ZIP code, or the city and state. For a Canad ian address, say the city and prov ince.

TeleNav GPS Navigator prompt>> I heard Arlington, Texas. Say GO BACK if this is not correct. <pause> Say the street including both the number and nam e, like 422 Main S treet. <pause > It can also be a high way.
Your response> 1620 Oak Street
