Before You Start
※Precautions and Notices
※DO NOT ADJUST THE “NAVI PATH” UNDER “SETTINGS” UNLESS YOU
NEED TO SWITCH IT TO OVERSEAS MAP.
※Use this product prudently. The product is designed to be use only as a
navigation aid. It is not for precise measurement of direction, distance, location
or topography.
※The calculated route is for reference only. It is the user’s responsibility to follow
the traffic signs and local regulations along the roads.
※When you get off the car, do not leave your device on the dashboard that is
subject to direct sunlight. The overheating of the battery can cause malfunction
and/or danger.
※GPS is operated by the United States government, which is solely responsible
for the performance of GPS. Any change to the GPS system can affect the
accuracy of all GPS equipments.
※GPS satellite signals cannot pass through solid materials (except glass). When
you are inside a tunnel or building, GPS positioning is not available. Tinted
window, solar film or any form of sticker on the front windscreen will affect the
performance of the GPS satellite reception. It will take slightly longer time than
usual to fix your position.
※A minimum of 4 GPS satellite signals is needed to determine current GPS
position. Signal reception can be affected by situations such as bad weather or
dense overhead obstacles (e.g. trees and tall buildings).
※GPS signal will be affected under bad weather condition.
※A car holder is needed when using the device in a car. It is recommended that
you place the device in an appropriate place, so as not to obstruct the driver’s
view, or deployment of airbags.
※When battery run out, the device will automatically turn off the power. Kindly
plug the cigarette car charger to power it up.

searching option and key in KFC, GPS will only list out all the KFC
in the east area.)
- Search using Malfreemaps (MFM) for a much more detail map in
both West and East Malaysia. For example, You are looking for
