  • Page 4: Important Safety Information

    Important safety information • It is highly recommended for the GPS device to stay connected with the vehicle power adapter to ensure optimal performance. • The battery is designed as a backup power source for short-term use only in the event when the vehicle's power system is not available. It is not to be used as a sole source of power for prolonged periods. • 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, familiarise 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.
  • Page 5 • Allow adequate ventilation around the vehicle power adapter when using it to operate the device or when it is connected. Do not cover the vehicle power adapter with paper or other objects that will reduce cooling. Do not use the vehicle power adapter while it is inside a carrying case. • Connect the vehicle power adapter to a proper power source. The voltage requirements are found on the product case and/or packaging. • Do not use the vehicle power adapter if the cord becomes damaged. • Do not attempt to service the unit. There are no serviceable parts inside. Replace the unit if it is damaged or exposed to excess moisture. About the battery • CAUTION: The battery can burst or explode, releasing hazardous chemicals. To reduce the risk of fire or burns, do not disassemble, crush, puncture, or dispose of in fire or water. • The Navman unit must be recycled or disposed of properly. • Only use the correct home charger (sold separately) or vehicle power adapter supplied by Navman to connect your Navman unit. • Do not modify and temper with your Navman unit. • Your Navman uses a Lithium-ion battery. It is important to follow the guidelines set out regarding this type of Battery. Electronic devices using a lithium – ion battery such as Mobile phones, GPSs and cameras are designed to operate at a temperature range of approximately 0°C to 50°C. Beyond these temperature limits, there may be a risk of battery failure, when these electronic goods are exposed to extreme heat conditions for long periods. It is recommended that you do not use your Navman in a humid, wet and/or corrosive environment. Do not put, store or leave your product in or near a heat source, in a high temperature location, in strong direct sunlight and do not expose it to temperatures over 60°C (140°F). Failure to follow these guidelines may cause the Lithium-ion battery to leak acid, become hot, explode or ignite and cause injury and/or damage.

  • Page 50: Reference

    Reference About GPS and signal reception 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 utilized 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. 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. Caring for your Navman Taking good care of your Navman will ensure trouble-free operation and reduce the risk of damage to your Navman: • Keep your Navman away from excessive moisture and extreme temperatures. • 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.

Overheating may damage the unit. • To discourage theft, do not leave your device, mounting bracket or any cables in plain view in an unattended vehicle.
