Quick Start Guide
SECTION 1:WHAT IS GPS?
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a network of
satellites launched by the U.S. military in the 1970s. The
satellites continuously transmit accurate time and position
information, which is freely used by commercial and
military applications worldwide. GPS receivers, such as
Delphi Mobile Navigation, are designed to pick up the
high-frequency radio signals from these satellites and use
the information to help determine your exact location.
Today, there are many applications that use GPS—from
marine to automotive, aviation, and military.
There are 24 satellites in total, orbiting approximately
12,000 miles above the Earth. While a GPS receiver can
detect signals from up to 12 satellites at any one time,
only three are needed to provide the two-dimensional
position (latitude and longitude), or “fix,” that is required
for vehicle and marine navigation systems. Aviation appli-
cations also need altitude, and therefore need information
from at least four satellites.
Delphi Mobile Navigation is designed specifically to use
the continuous stream of GPS information to help find
your current position and to calculate the best route to
your desired destination using the road maps stored in its
memory. With voice and visual commands, Delphi Mobile
Navigation helps guide you to your destination.

SECTION 4: INSTALLING DELPHI
MOBILE NAVIGATION IN YOUR VEHICLE
Before installing Delphi Mobile Navigation, check whether
your vehicle is fitted with a heat-reflecting or heated
windshield. If so, you will need to purchase an external
antenna from your retailer to allow your unit to pick up
the GPS signals.
The Delphi Mobile Navigation unit can be mounted three
different ways:
1.Suction onto the windshield
2.To the dash by suction or adhesive tape
3.Screw onto the dash
Note: Alternative mounting options may be available for your vehicle make
and model. Contact your retailer or Delphi for more information.
If the unit becomes hot, it prompts you to turn down the
brightness (press and hold the “Zoom” key). If the unit
becomes too hot, the screen will go blank and voice
instructions will continue.
Suction mount to windshield
1.Choose a position on the windshield where Delphi
Mobile Navigation will be clearly visible by the driver
without obstructing the driver’s view. Mount low on
the windshield, as close to the dash as possible.
2.Thoroughly clean and dry the suction cup and the
mounting area of the windshield.
3.Hold the suction cup firmly against the windshield and
press the lever down until it snaps shut.
Warning: To avoid personal injury, follow the safety guidelines and
installation instructions provided so that Delphi Mobile Navigation does
not obstruct the view of the driver, interfere with the operation of any airbags
and safety features in the vehicle, or become airborne in the case of an acci-
dent. Do not attempt to install the Delphi Mobile Navigation unit while driving.
Caution: To avoid overheating of the unit, do not leave your Delphi
Mobile Navigation on the dash or windshield while your vehicle is
unattended, especially in strong sunlight. Do not use or handle Delphi Mobile
Navigation while it is hot. Let it cool away from heat sources before handling it.
To remove the suction cup, pull the lever up. Pull the release tab
to release the suction.
If the suction cup does not adhere, clean the mounting area of
the windshield with a cloth dampened with isopropyl alcohol. Let
the area dry, then reapply the suction cup.

Suction or adhesive mount to dash
1.Choose a position on the dash where Delphi
Mobile Navigation will be clearly visible to the driver
without obstructing the driver’s view.
2.Thoroughly clean and dry the suction cup and the
mounting area of the dash.
3.Suction mount: If the location is flat enough, you can
simply use the suction cup to mount the unit directly
onto the dash. If the suction cup does not adhere,
clean the mounting area with a cloth dampened with
isopropyl alcohol. Let the area dry, then reapply the
suction cup.
Adhesive mount: If the location is not suitable to use
the suction cup alone, use the suction pad to provide
a flat surface for the suction cup. Peel the protective
layer off the adhesive tape on the bottom of the
suction pad. Press the suction pad onto the desired
position on the dash and hold firmly for 30 seconds.
8.Snap Delphi Mobile Navigation onto the socket clip.
First, position the two locating tabs (found on the
bottom of the unit) into the corresponding slots on the
socket clip. Then, snap the top side of Delphi Mobile
Navigation onto the clip.
9.Flip the GPS antenna outward so that the antenna
points horizontally.
10. Plug the 12/24V power adaptor into the cigarette
lighter socket.
11. Plug the other end of the power cable into the
socket on the left side of Delphi Mobile Navigation.
12. Verify that Delphi Mobile Navigation is positioned such
that the GPS antenna has a clear view of the sky.
Note: In most vehicles, you will need to have the engine idling in order to
program your destination. You also can turn on the unit with just the
accessory power (i.e., your ignition key turned to the ACC “on” position).
When you turn on the engine, power may be interrupted to the unit but
the programmed destination will be saved. In vehicles where accessory
power is on permanently, the unit can be turned on and programmed as
soon as the power adaptor is connected. Turning on the engine will not
reset the unit.

down on the back of the upper plastic clip. Release the top of the
unit. Then lift the unit out of the bottom two slots.
Warning: To avoid personal injury, follow the safety guidelines and

and safety features in the vehicle, or become airborne in the case of an acci-
dent. Do not attempt to install the Delphi Mobile Navigation unit while driving.
You can remove the adhesive mount from your dash by taking
the following steps:
1. Lift one edge of the suction pad gently with fingers or the
rounded edge of a spoon. Once enough of the edge is loos-
ened to grip with your fingers, pull the pad gently from the
mounting surface at a 90-degree angle. Avoid using sharp
tools that could damage the car interior.
2. If the pad fails to loosen, first warm it with a hair dryer for
2 minutes to 3 minutes to soften the adhesive. Be careful
not to apply too much heat, which could damage the
mounting surface.
3. If any adhesive remains on the dash surface, the adhesive can
easily be removed by rubbing your thumb or finger across it.
4. As necessary, use a mild household cleaner to clean the
dash surface.
Caution: Never use a commercial heat gun or paint-stripping gun.
This could result in damage to the unit or to your vehicle.

the top, push the socket clip onto the ball foot until
it clicks.
7.Adjust the position of the socket clip so that Delphi
Mobile Navigation will be clearly visible to the driver.
8.Thread the locking nut onto the socket clip; turn
clockwise until tight.
9.Snap Delphi Mobile Navigation onto the socket clip.
First, position the two locating tabs (found on the
bottom of the unit) into the corresponding slots on the
socket clip. Then, snap the top side of Delphi Mobile
Navigation onto the clip.
10. Flip the GPS antenna outward so that the antenna
points horizontally.
11. Plug the 12/24V power adaptor into the cigarette
lighter socket.
12. Plug the other end of the power cable into the socket
on the left side of Delphi Mobile Navigation.
13. Verify that Delphi Mobile Navigation is positioned such
that the GPS antenna has a clear view of the sky.
Note: In most vehicles, you will need to have the engine idling in order to
program your destination. You also can turn on the unit with just the
accessory power (i.e., your ignition key turned to the ACC “on” position).
When you turn on the engine, power may be interrupted to the unit but
the programmed destination will be saved. In vehicles where accessory
power is on permanently, the unit can be turned on and programmed as
soon as the power adaptor is connected. Turning the engine on will not
reset the unit.

Getting a GPS fix
Delphi Mobile Navigation receives GPS signals every
second via the antenna. In order for your antenna to
receive signals, ensure that:
1.The unit is outside or in a vehicle parked outside.
2.The antenna is pointing horizontally out through your
windshield and has a clear view of the sky.
When you first power on the unit and program a route, it
may take several minutes for the unit to get its first GPS
fix. You can minimize this time by remaining stationary in
your vehicle until the GPS signal is received.
While the unit is attempting to get a GPS fix, there are
no route instructions displayed on the map screen. Once
the unit has a valid fix, the GPS signal-strength indicator
will turn green.
GPS strength indicator is
red when the unit has no
GPS fix, and green when
a GPS fix is available.
