Precautions and Notices
zFor your own safety, do not operate the controls of the product while driving.
zUse this product prudently. The product is intended for use solely as a
navigation aid. It is not for precise measurement of direction, distance,
location or topography.
zThe calculated route is for reference only. It is the user’s responsibility to
follow the traffic signs and local regulations along the roads.
zWhen you get out of the car, do not leave your device on the dashboard
subjected to direct sunlight. Overheating of the battery can cause malfunction
and/or danger.
zGPS 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.
zGPS satellite signals cannot pass through solid materials (except glass). When
you are inside a tunnel or building, GPS positioning is not available.
zA 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).
zOther wireless devices in the vehicle might interfere with the reception of
satellite signals and cause the reception to be unstable.
iii

zA car holder is needed when using the device in a car. Be sure that you place
the device in an appropriate place, so as not to obstruct the driver’s view, or
deployment of airbags.
Do not mount where the driver’s
field of vision is blocked. Do not place unsecured
on the dashboard.
Do not mount in front of
airbag panels.
Do not mount in front of an
airbag field of deployment.

1 Getting Started
This chapter tells you step by step how to perform the initial startup and introduces
the components of your device.
1.1 Performing the Initial Start Up

CAUTION: Always leave the ON/OFF switch in the ON position for normal operation.
2. Your device turns on and displays the “Change Language” screen. Tap the
desired language.

3. The “Date & Time” screen appears. Tap the appropriate arrow button to select
the time zone, date, and time. Then tap to continue.

1.2 Connecting to AC Power and Charging the Battery
NOTE:
zWhen charging the battery for the very first time, you should charge it for at least 8 hours.
zWhen you connect the AC adapter to charge the battery after the battery power has been
fully depleted, wait for at least one minute if you need to turn on the device.
zDepending on your region of purchase, the connector converter may not look exactly the
same as the picture shown.
zYour device uses a small amount of battery power to maintain its state when you switch it
off. If you don’t charge it for a prolonged period of time then you will lose this state and your
device will re-start. Your settings will however, be maintained. You can tell it’s time to
charge your device when the battery indicator turns orange.
We recommend that you fully charge your device the first time that you plug it in.
Fully charging the battery will take around 8 hours.
1. Slide and click the connector converter onto the AC adapter.
2. Connect the adapter cable to the bottom of your device.
3. Plug the AC adapter into a wall outlet.

1.3 Using Your Device in a Vehicle
Using the Car Holder
CAUTION:
zWhen placing the car holder, make sure that the device does not obstruct the driver’s view,
or interfere with the operation of vehicle airbags and safety devices.
zIf the car’s windshield is tinted with a reflective coating, an external antenna (optional) may
be needed to route the antenna to the top of the car through a window. When closing the
car window, be careful not to pinch the antenna cable. (Cars with an anti-jam window
design may automatically leave adequate space as needed.)
The car holder consists of a bracket and a flexible window mount. Use the car
holder to fix your device in a vehicle. (See the document supplied with the car
holder for the installation instruction.)
