Instructions
Notice to Users
•Do not use mobile phone while driving.
Park the vehicle in a safe place first if
you need to use the mobile phone.
•The use of navigation system does not
mean that the responsibilities of driver
can be replaced. Observe and obliged to
the traffic rules. Pay attention to the
current traffic condition consistently.
•If there is a difference in the traffic
regulations and the current traffic
condition always take precedence over
the navigation system.
•For safety reasons, the navigation
system menu can only be used before
start driving or when the vehicle is
stationary.
•In the situation when there is only one
road or the road is damage or
prohibited to be passed through (e.g.
pedestrian street), the navigation system
may give a warning. Pay more attention
to this situation.
•That's because the navigation system
will not consider route safety when
planning a route. Roadblocks, locations
of buildings, height and weight limits,
traffic and weather conditions or other
issues that can affect the safety and time
of driving routes will also not be
considered in the proposed route.
Therefore, it is up to the driver to decide
which route is the most suitable.
•The speed limit stipulated by current road
traffic regulations should be more reliable
than the system storage most of the time.
There is no guarantee that the speed limit
shown by the navigation system is the
same as that stipulated by the traffic law
under any circumstances.
•Do not solely rely on the navigation
system to find emergency services (e. g.
hospitals, fire fighting facilities, etc.).
There is no guarantee that all emergency
services nearby will be kept in the
database. In this case, the driver needs
to judge for emergency help.
It is not recommended to use the
navigation system when the engine is turned
off. If this is done, the battery may lose
power. Always keep the engine running all
the time when using the navigation system.
Do not disassemble or modify this product.
Otherwise, accidents, fire and electric shock
may result.
Laws of some provinces and cities prohibit
drivers from watching videos during driving.
Use the system carefully.

Navigation system
Welcome to the navigation system. We hope
our navigation can provide you convenience
and smooth journey! If you have any
suggestions or opinions, please feel free to
contact us! Please read the following
warnings carefully before starting the
navigation! For your driving safety, please
strictly observe the "Warning" operation!
PROTON will not be responsible for
any inconvenience or accident caused by
negligence of the stated warnings!
Navigation disclaimer
•Map disclaimer
Due to the urban construction and the rapid
development of urban-rural highway traffic
and the continuous changes in traffic control
information and traffic facilities in urban
streets, there may be situations that are not
completely consistent with the actual
information at that time after the product is
produced. Thus, the driver must pay serious
attention to the actual traffic conditions and
avoid violating traffic rules. The navigation
map will be released to the public in a timely
manner. Please pay attention to the update
information of the navigation map from the
dealer.
Due to changes in traffic regulations or
temporary road control, the route planned by
the navigation map may not conform to the
traffic control situation on site. Please drive
according to the actual traffic control or
traffic rules.
•Navigation disclaimer
As real-time road conditions sometimes
change more or less, the driving route
planned by the navigation map is only for
reference. For example, the route chosen by
the driver in his/her familiar area may be
more effective than the route planned by the
navigation map.
•Satellite signal reception disclaimer
In general, the navigation map can calculate
your exact location after only 3 or 4 satellite
signals being received. However, sometimes
due to weather or under the influence of tall
buildings in the city, the reception effect of
signals will be affected, as shown in the
following figure:

6
•Error disclaimer
Under normal conditions of satellite signal
reception, the standard satellite positioning
system error is 5 to 10 meters.
When driving on parallel roads, deviations
may still occur although this sytem has
automatic correction function. At this time,
the actual driving road may not exactly
consistent with the vehicle's position shown
on the map. The vehicle may be shown on
the opposite parallel road close to the actual
driving road.
The following illustrated environment will
affect the normal reception of satellite
signals and cause errors.
Failure to receive satellite signals:
•Check whether the icon of reception
status in GPS information display is
normal.
•During a period of start-up, the satellite
antenna needs to receive satellite signals
and update internal information. At this
time, the icon of reception status shows
no signal, which is a normal situation.
Just wait for a moment to enter the
normal operation.
•Check whether the vehicle is located in
an area that can possibly interfere the
sattelite signal reception such as "under
bridge", "in tunnel" and "near tall
buildings". After the vehicle leaves away
from such areas, the signal will be
restored.
Safe navigation
Do not operate the navigation function
during driving to avoid distracting attention
and cause safety problems. The navigation
setting should be done in advance or
operated by passengers. The safe
navigation is the top priority to ensure the
personal safety of drivers, passengers and
others.
Use Instructions
Before using the navigation system, please
familiarise with the following information:
•The accurate guidance and positioning of
the navigation system is closely linked to
GPS signals, and the navigation system
will automatically search for GPS signals.
•It may take 2 to 15 minutes for initial
positioning and 1 to 3 minutes for
repositioning.
•If you are in a complex terrain such as in
the basement and between tall buildings,
there may be no GPS signal.
•Whether there is GPS signal or not,
please drive the vehicle according to the
actual road conditions!
