Your new GPS850N will need to be charged for at least 4 hours prior to first use. This will
condition the battery and prolong battery life.
To charge the battery:
- Switch the battery switch on the bottom of the unit to the on p o si tion.
- Connect the charger cable to the charger connector in the left side of the unit.
NOTE: To ensure a constant charge, for the first charge you should use the 240V AC home
charger.
Turning the GPS850N on
Use the power switch on the left top of the unit to turn your GPS850N on and off. If the device
does not turn on, ensure that the battery switch on the bottom is turned on and that the charger
is connected.
Calibrating the touch screen
When you first turn on the GPS850N, or whenever you switch off the battery switch on the
bottom of the device, you will see the following touch screen calibration display.
To calibrate the touch screen, carefu lly press on the centre of the black cross wi th your finger or
blunt pencil. The cross will move f r om the centre of the screen to the top left corner. Keep
pressing on the cross as it moves aroun d the screen until calibration screen closes. If you find
that the process is repeating over and over, try using a stylus or blunt pencil to tap the cross
rather than a finger. It is not recommended to use a pen on the touch screen as this may mark
the surface and be difficult to erase.

turned on. Position the bottom of the GPS850N first by aligning the tabs on the cradle
with the holes in the device, then til t the top of the GPS850N back into position (B). Pull
gently on the top clip of the cradle until it clicks into place. With the device in pl ace,

The first time you turn on your navigation device it may take up to 10 or 15 minutes to acquire
reliable GPS signal. Obstacles such as car ports, bridges, tunnels, and buildings will affect the
navigation device’s ability to obtain an accurate signal. Do not be alarmed if the map displays
your current location in another city when you first turn the unit on, your position will be
automatically updated once reliable GPS signal is acquired. It is best to move your vehicle to a
clear and open area free from obstacles that may hinder the GPS performance, and then remain
stationary until the GPS has acquired your current position. If the vehicle is moving whilst the
GPS is trying to acquire a signal, the acquisition time may be significantly increased.
Your Voxtrack GPS850N is now ready for use! Please read the instructions regarding navigation
software to learn more about using your GPS.
CAUTION: Do not leave the device mounted i n your car when parked. Exposure to extreme heat
may cause damage. Simply disconnect the charger and remove the device from the cradle. You
may choose to leave the mounting system in pl ace on the windscreen for easy installation when
you return to your vehicle. Removing the device from view will also reduce the risk of theft.
