Thank you for buying your new ROAD ANGEL Navigator
As our roads become busier, more congested and more regulated, staying
alert to road and traffic conditions is a challenge to everyone. Even the
most conscientious driver can have a momentary lapse of concentration
that could easily lead to an accident or a fine and points.
ROAD ANGEL Navigator is specially designed to be a simple-to-use
addition to any vehicle, to alert and warn you in advance of known danger
areas and provide point-to-point navigation with a full-screen interface. In
the comprehensive ROAD ANGEL Navigator database are stored Police,
Local Authority and Ministry of Transport designated danger spots,
including accident black spots and safety camera locations.
Using the latest Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) technology, ROAD
ANGEL Navigator compares your position with the known danger spot
locations and gives you an audible and visual warning as you approach
them. An accurate GPS speedometer in the display gives you time to
adjust your driving to the approaching danger.
The safety of you and your passengers is our prime consideration, and we
trust that for all the miles you drive, your ROAD ANGEL Navigator will
enhance the safety and enjoyment of your journey. Join other ROAD
ANGEL Navigator users in guarding your life and livelihood.
We are pleased to have you as a valued customer and hope you will be
delighted with your fully integrated ROAD ANGEL Navigator. Having
listened to our customers we think the new features will make this product
your perfect driving companion.
