Warning

PLEASE READ THIS MANUAL AND THE SUPPLIED READ THIS FIRST (INSTALLATION MANUAL) COMPLETELY BEFORE INSTALLING OR OPERATING YOUR PERSONAL NAVIGATION SYSTEM. IMPROPER INSTALLATION OR USE OF THIS DEVICE MAY CAUSE ACCIDENT, INJURY OR DEATH.

On safety

- Besure to:

• install the navigation system in a safe place where it does not obstruct the driver's view.
• not install the unit above an airbag.
• place the cables and cradle where they do not obstruct driving.

• attach the unit to the cradle properly, otherwise the unit may fall.
  – clean the surface of the suction cup and attachment surface before attaching. When installing on the dashboard, clean the surface on which the supplied sheet will be attached. Also, confirm that the suction cup is securely attached after installation. Otherwise, the unit or cradle may fall.
  Failure to do so may result in unsafe driving conditions.

• Do not apply excessive force to the unit or cradle as it may fall.

• Comply with local traffic rules, laws and regulations.
• Do not continuously watch the unit while driving. It is dangerous and may cause a traffic accident.
• If you need to operate the navigation system while driving, be sure to stop the car in a safe place before operating.
• Do not modify the unit.
• Do not disassemble the unit except when disposing of it.

When using the unit indoors

• Do not use the AC power adapter placed in a narrow space, such as between a wall and furniture.

• Use this product near an outlet. This is to ensure that the power plug can be immediately unplugged from the outlet to power off if some abnormality occurs during use.

• Be sure that nothing metallic comes into contact with the metal parts of the product or connecting cable. If it does, a short may occur and the product may be damaged.
  • Always keep the metal contacts clean.

On handling

• Do not let foreign objects get inside the cradle connector (13) of the unit, as it may cause a malfunction.
• Turn the unit off by pressing I/ ^① (4), take it out of the cradle, then disconnect the car battery adapter, otherwise it may drain the car battery. Note the following.
  If your car's cigarette lighter socket is not connected to ACC on your ignition switch, power will continue to be supplied to the unit's built-in power supply even when the ignition is off or the unit is not in use.
• Do not connect any accessory (car battery adapter, AC power adapter, etc.) other than those supplied or optional.
• Do not expose the unit to fire or water, as it may cause a malfunction.
• Be sure to remove the unit out of the car when leaving your car to prevent theft or high temperature damage inside the car.
• Note that the built-in battery cannot be charged outside the temperature range 5 - 45^ (41 - 113^ ).
• Do not leave the unit in high ambient temperature as the built-in battery capacity will deteriorate, or it will become unchargeable.

On GPS

GPS (Global Positioning System) satellites continuously emit signals for positioning anywhere on the earth. As a GPS aerial receives these signals, users can be informed of their location (latitude, longitude and altitude). Information must be received from 3 satellites in order to obtain two-dimensional fixes (latitude and longitude), and 4 satellites are required for three-dimensional positioning (latitude, longitude and altitude). As GPS satellites are controlled by the U.S. Department of Defense, a deliberate margin of error between a few metres (a few feet) and 10 metres (32.8 feet) exists. As a result, the GPS navigation system may include an error of between 10 metres (32.8 feet) and about 200 metres (656.2 feet), depending on the circumstances.

As GPS information is obtained using signal from satellites, it may be impossible or difficult to obtain the information in the following locations:

- Tunnel or underground

- Under a highway

- Between high buildings

- Between tall trees with dense foliage

After the initial installation, park your car in a safe, open place (no high buildings, etc.) for up to 20 minutes to allow for GPS signals to be received before using the navigation system.

Note

It takes time to receive a GPS signal when switching the unit ON after switching OFF the main power, after the built-in battery is fully discharged, or after resetting the unit.

On the software

Read the “END-USER LICENSE AGREEMENT” carefully before use.
