Warnings and Notices
z For your safety, do not operate the controls of the product while driving.
z Use this product with caution. The product is a navigation aid. It does not
provide exact measurements of direction, distance, location or topography.
z The calculated route is for reference only. Always follow the posted traffic
signs, speed limits and road restrictions.
z When you leave your car, do not leave your device on the dashboard in direct
sunlight. This can cause the battery to overheat and malfunction.
z The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the United States
government, which is solely responsible for its performance. Any change to
the GPS system can affect the accuracy of all GPS equipment world-wide.
z GPS satellite signals cannot typically pass through solid materials (except
glass). GPS location information is not typically available inside buildings,
tunnels, or underground parking lots.
z A minimum of 4 GPS satellite signals is needed to calculate your GPS
position. Signal reception can be affected by weather events or overhead
obstacles (e.g. dense foliage and tall buildings).
z Other wireless devices in the vehicle may interfere with the reception of
satellite signals and cause the reception to be unstable.
vii
z A device holder is needed when using the device in a car. Be sure to 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 on the
dashboard unsecured.
Do not mount in front of
airbag panels.
Do not mount in front of an
airbag field of deployment.

1.2 Performing the Initial Start Up
1. Using a pointed pen, slide the ON/OFF switch to the ON position.
CAUTION: Always leave the ON/OFF switch in the ON position for normal operation.
2. Fully charge the battery before using your device for the first time.
3. Your device will turn on and display the Home screen.
4
1.3 Connecting to AC Power and Charging the
Battery
When charging the battery for the very first time, you should charge it for at least
8 hours.
1. Slide and click the AC 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.
The charge indicator glows amber when charging is in progress. Do not
disconnect your device from AC power until the battery is fully charged, when the
charge indicator turns green. Charging may take a few hours.
NOTE:
z Do not immediately turn on your device after connecting the AC adapter to charge a
power-depleted battery. Wait for at least one minute.
z Depending on your region of purchase, the AC converter may not look exactly the same
as the picture shown.
z Your device can also be charged when it is connected to a desktop computer via the USB
cable.
5
CAUTION: For optimal performance of the lithium battery:
z Do not charge the battery where the temperature is high (e.g. in direct sunlight).
z There is no need to fully discharge the battery before charging. You can charge the battery
before it is discharged.
z When storing the product for a long period of time, be sure to fully charge the battery at
least once every two weeks. Over discharge of the battery can affect the charging
performance.
1.4 Using Your Device in a Vehicle
A device holder, car charger, and TMC antenna are supplied with your device.
Using the Device Holder
CAUTION:
z Select an appropriate location for the device holder. Never place the holder where the
driver’s field of vision is blocked.
z If 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 device holder consists of a bracket and a
stand. Use the device holder to mount your device
in a vehicle. Make sure that the GPS antenna has a
clear view of the sky. (See the document supplied
with the device holder for the installation
instruction.)
To initialize the GPS, remain stationary at a spot
with a clear view of the sky. This may take a few
minutes. Once initialized, the GPS will take a few
seconds to find its current location.
NOTE: Depending upon the specific model purchased, the device holder supplied with your
device may not look exactly the same as the picture shown.
6
Connecting the Car Charger
The car charger supplies power to your device when you are using the device in a
car.
CAUTION: To protect your device against sudden surges in current, connect the car charger
only after the car engine has been started.
1. Connect one end of the car charger to the power connector of your device.
2. Connect the other end to the 12-volt cigarette lighter or power port to power
and charge your device. The indicator light on the car charger lights in green
to indicate that power is being supplied to your device.
To Cigarette Lighter
7
Connecting the TMC Antenna
TMC antenna allows you to receive radio transmissions that are used to inform
drivers of traffic, weather, and other driving conditions.
Connect one end of the TMC antenna to the TMC connector on your device and
secure the other end in the topmost corner of the windshield.
The Traffic data feed is a paid subscription service. Your new device comes with a
free 90-day trial of the Total Traffic Network service. The trial begins the first
time you acquire a location fix. At or near the end of the 90-day trial period you
will be prompted to a website to extend your subscription for a fee.
TMC information is monitored by the navigation software. Once the information
is received, you can view it on your device and traffic icons will appear in the map
view. Certain roads with reported traffic will be highlighted and you can choose to
avoid those roads and an alternate route will be automatically calculated. (See the
navigation software manual for detailed information.)
NOTE: The TMC information is not available everywhere. It is supported in most major
metropolitan areas. Check our website for exact locations.
