Whilst AVN S9000 software is loading a start-up display will be shown for just a few seconds and then the screen will show a section
of a map. AVN S9000 needs to acquire a minimum of four satellites in order to work. Once this has been achieved AVN S9000 will
ascertain your position and this will be indicated by a green arrow icon on the on-screen map and the GPS signal strength will be
shown in the bottom right hand corner of the display. AVN S9000 is now ready to navigate.
As the GPS engine and antenna have never been used before, the first ‘Cold’ start can take anywhere from 15 – 30 minutes to
establish a satellite connection. Once initialised, subsequent start ups will take less time and eventually should take only a matter
of minutes.
