Warning
: Traffic laws and current traffic conditions must always be observed and take precedence over the instructions issued by the navigation

planned in a stationary vehicle before starting a trip.

of MOTONAV. The server is operated by Airbiquity, Inc., a Motorola-approved service provider (www.airbiquity.com). This information will only
be used to provide the requested service and will not be shared with any additional third parties. Users who prefer not to permit such tracking
and monitoring should avoid using the navigation system.
Responsibility
: Certain features of MOTONAV require wireless network access on your mobile phone. The user is responsible for all access
charges.

safety
first, a few rules to live by...
Using any device while driving may cause distraction. It is important to look at the display only when it
is safe to do so. If you are the driver of the vehicle, plan the route before your departure and stop if you
need to change the route.
Using a mobile device or accessory may be prohibited or restricted in certain areas. Always obey the
la
ws and regulations on the use of these products.
Do not place your MOTONAV where it obstructs the driver's vision or where it covers an airbag.
Note:
This software is a navigation system that helps you find your way to your destination with the
built-in GPS receiver. The software does not transmit your GPS position. Other people cant
track you.
set it up
let’s get you up and moving
You can use your MOTONAV software in a car or on foot in either portrait or landscape mode— just
rotate the phone. And you dont need to use a stylus—just tap the screen and map with your fingertips.
When using the software for the first tim
e, it walks you through these easy steps:
Note:
The language for the software is automatically taken from the language settings of your

On multilane roads, sometimes you need to be in the correct lane in order to follow the recommended
route. If lane information is available, your MOTONAV software displays the lanes and their directions
using small arrows at the bottom of the map. Highlighted arrows represent the lanes you need to take.
When information is available, you may see road signs instead of arrows. When cruising (not in a route),
all
the signs are the same brightness. When in a route, your road sign is brighter than the others.

active route map
When in a route, your map shows these elements:
Current GPS position & start point
—Your current position on the map (in either pedestrian or
vehicle mode). If GPS position is available, the route starts from the current position. If not, your
software uses your last known position as the start point.
Destination
—The end point of the route.
•Map color
—The map is vivid and colorful when GPS position is available. If not, the map is appears
gray. (The software may still move the Vehimarker to show a possible but not confirmed position.)
Route color
—The route always stands out on the map, in both daytime and night color modes.
Streets & road types normally excluded from your route
—You can choose whether to avoid
certain road types (see page 27). However, when your route cannot a
void them, it includes them but
shows them in a different color from your route color.
Streets & roads with traffic events
—When a road has a traffic event, it appears in an alternate
color. Small symbols along the route show the type of the traffic event.
3D terrain
3D terrain maps shows changes in terrain, elevations, or depressions in
the land when you view a 2D map or plot a route in 3D. 3D maps show
hills and mountains in the background;, 2D maps show them in color
and shading.
Elevated roads
Complicated intersections, overpasses, and bridges appear in 3D.
3D landmarks
Landmarks are 3D artistic or block representations of prominent or
well-known sights.
3D landmarks may not be part of the original software or may need
a

tap
OK
to select.
After you enter a couple of letters, tap
LIST

finding an intersection:
Search first for the street with a less common name because you can type fewer letters to find it.

typing “PI A” helps you find Pine Avenue and skips Pine Street and Pickle Road.
