whY won't MY unit turn on?
Check the power. Does the battery need to be charged? Plug into a power
source and then try to turn on the device.
whY aM i unaBle to get a gPS Signal or fix?
The very first time you use the RightWay 550 GPS navigator, it can take up to
10 minutes to initialize the GPS. After the first time, GPS reception should start
within 1 minute of turning on the device. If the navigation device has been
switched off for more than 1 week, the next initialization can take up to 5
minutes. For the GPS to properly receive satellite data it needs a clear view of the
sky. The most common limitations to receiving GPS signals are urban canyons,
tunnels and metallic surfaces. Most of the time, this isn't an issue. If you are
experiencing difficulty, place your unit near the rearview mirror.
whY DoeS MY unit SoMetiMeS Make a PoPPing or
Static like noiSe?
The popping/static noise comes from interference with cell phones. It doesn't
impact the unit or its performance. If the occasional noise is bothersome, either
turn the cell phone off or move the unit further away from the phone.
