Important safety information PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING PRODUCT IN VEHICLE This is the safety alert symbol. It is used to alert you to potential personal injury hazards. Obey all safety messages that follow this symbol to avoid possible injury or death. WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury. CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury. CAUTION used without the safety alert symbol indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in property damage.
Removing original equipment, adding accessories or modifying your vehicle could affect the vehicle’s safety or make it illegal to operate in some jurisdictions. Follow all product instructions and all instructions in your vehicle owner’s manual regarding accessories or modifications. Consult your country’s and/or state’s laws regarding operation of a vehicle with any accessories or modifications. It is your sole responsibility to place, secure and use your Navman in a manner that will not cause accidents, personal injury or property damage. Always observe safe driving practices. Do not mount your Navman in a way that may interfere with the safe operation of the vehicle, the deployment of air bags or other safety equipment. Do not operate your Navman while driving. Before you use your Navman for the first time, familiarize yourself with your device and its operation. On main roads, the distance to an exit calculated by your Navman may be further than the distance shown on road signs. Road signs show the distance to the start of an exit while your Navman shows the distance to the next intersection, i.e., the end of the exit ramp or road. To prepare to exit a road, always follow distance information on road signs. The use of information regarding safety or speed camera locations may be subject to local laws in the country of use. You are responsible for checking that you can legally use the information in your country or in the country where the information will be used.
Do not handle your Navman while it is hot. Let the product cool, out of direct sunlight.
Do not expose your Navman to direct sunlight in an unattended vehicle for prolonged periods. Overheating may damage the unit. Note: To discourage theft, do not leave the Navman, its mounting bracket or any cables in plain view in an unattended vehicle.
Home Charger-specific safety information
To charge your Navman from the mains power, use the home charger supplied by Navman as an accessory (may be sold separately). Using other home chargers with your Navman could result in serious injury or property damage. Never use the charger if the plug or cord is damaged. Do not expose the charger to moisture or water. Do not use the charger in a high moisture environment. Exposure to water may cause electrical sparks or fires. Never touch the charger when your hands or feet are wet. Allow adequate ventilation around the charger when using it to operate your Navman or charge the Navman internal battery. Do not cover the charger with paper or other objects that will reduce ventilation. Do not use the charger while it is inside a carrying case or other container. Ensure that the charger is connected to a power source with the correct fitting and voltage requirements. The voltage requirements can be found on the home charger casing and/or packaging. Do not attempt to service the charger as this could result in personal injury. Replace the charger if it is damaged or exposed to excess moisture.
Internal battery-specific safety information
Your Navman contains a non-replaceable internal lithium-ion polymer battery. The battery may burst or explode if mishandled, releasing hazardous chemicals. To reduce the risk of fire or burns, do not disassemble, crush or puncture the battery. Recycle or dispose of the battery safely and properly according to local laws and regulations. Do not dispose of the battery in fire or water.
Only use the correct home charger (sold separately) or in-car charger supplied by Navman to charge the internal battery. Only use the installed internal battery with the Navman unit. The battery will stop charging when the ambient temperature is less than 0ºC (32ºF) or more than 40ºC (104ºF). Failure to adhere to these warnings and cautions may lead to death, serious injury or property damage. Navman disclaims all liability for installation or use of the Navman that causes or contributes to death, injury or property damage or that violates any law.
Warning Notice to Drivers in the United States State law may prohibit drivers in states such as Arizona, California and Minnesota from mounting objects on their windshields while driving. Please make sure you research and follow your most current State laws. An alternative mounting option is provided in the box with your product, also, stores offer additional mounting alternatives. Navman does not take any responsibility for any fines, penalties, or damages that may be incurred as a result of disregarding this notice.
Caring for your Navman Taking good care of your Navman will ensure trouble-free operation and reduce the risk of damage to your Navman.

Avoid exposing your Navman to direct sunlight or strong ultraviolet light for extended periods of time.
Do not place anything on top of your Navman or drop objects on your Navman.
Do not drop your Navman or subject it to severe shock.
Do not subject your Navman to sudden and severe temperature changes. This could cause moisture condensation inside the unit, which could damage your Navman. In the event of moisture condensation, allow your Navman to dry out completely before use. The screen surface can easily be scratched. Avoid touching it with sharp objects. Non-adhesive generic screen protectors designed specifically for use on portable devices with LCD panels may be used to help protect the screen from minor scratches. Never clean your Navman with it powered on. Use a soft, lint-free cloth to wipe the screen and the exterior of your Navman. Do not use paper towels to clean the screen. Never attempt to disassemble, repair or make any modifications to your Navman. Disassembly, modification or any attempt at repair could cause damage to your Navman and even bodily injury or property damage and will void any warranty.

How do I navigate with GPS? The Global Positioning System (GPS) is available at any time, free of charge, and is accurate to within 5m (15ft). GPS navigation is made possible by a network of satellites that orbit the Earth at around 20,200km (12,552mi). Each satellite transmits a range of signals which are utilised by GPS receivers, such as your Navman, to determine an exact location. Although a GPS receiver can detect signals from up to 12 satellites at any time, only four signals are required to provide a position or “GPS fix” (latitude and longitude), for vehicle navigation systems.
How does my Navman receive GPS signals? Your Navman receives GPS signals via the internal GPS antenna. To guarantee the optimum GPS signal strength, ensure your Navman is outdoors, or in a vehicle outdoors, and has an unobstructed view of the sky. GPS reception is not usually affected by weather, however, very heavy rain or snow may have a negative effect on your reception.
How do I view my GPS status? You can view your GPS status at any time from the map screens or the Viewfinder screen. displays green when a GPS fix is established and red when a GPS fix is unavailable.
