IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS
In the “City”, enter the name of your city.
Once you have selected your city, in the “Street” may start search of the
main avenues and streets of this city.
If you can not nd the desired street, it is because it is not listed as a
main street or avenue, so you must perform a more specic search.
To this should look into the elds:
“City”: By colony Delegation / Municipality
“Zip”: By Postal Code.
Whether that makes the search for Cologne delegation / or Municipality
Postcode sufce to enter some data close to the street you are looking
for, it is not necessary that the data is accurate, only a further data to
support the GPS to nd the address you are looking for.

FAQs
Q: What is the normal time that GPS needed to receive the satellite
signal?
A: The normal time is approximately 1 minute in places
Clear and away from buildings. The antenna would be better if it is not
moving.
Q: When should I restart my GPS?
A: When the satellite signal is not received after a certain period of
time (more than 5 minutes). When you have traveled more than 500Km
without using the device.
Q: What is the capacity of the battery?
A: Approximately lasts 4 hours depending on the conguration and
application set. Remember that the initial load is 12 hours.
Battery operated at its full capacity after 4 or 5 cycles of loading.

could be dangerous.
This system only provides a navigational reference. Do not use
this system for any directional, distance, and geographic accurate
measurements.
The rst GPS positioning should be performed at a single set point,
in a wide-open area without building shelters. Positioning time
length will depend on the satellite signal strength, cloud levels;
possibly taking up to 10 minutes.
Any wireless communication products (mobile phone, radio, speed
detection unit, etc) might affect the GPS signal, resulting in a poor
signal.

WHAT IS GPS?
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a Global Navigational
Satellite System (GNSS) which allows for the determination of an
object’s, person’s, or vehicle’s exact location within a few inches or feet.
GPS works through a network of 24 satellites (21 active satellites and 3
backup satellites) which orbit over the globe at 20,200 km with
synchronized trajectories that allow them to cover the entire globe at
any given time. When needing to determine position, the device being
utilized locates a minimum of 4 satellites and receives their locations
and time. Based on these signals, the device will synchronize its time
and the GPS satellites time and will calculate the signal’s backup time or
the distance to the satellite. Using triangulation, the device will
determine its position. The triangulation through GPS, to differentiate
from 2-D triangulation which consists in using angles from known
sources, is based on the distance from the satellite to the device or
measuring point. After knowing these distances, it is easy to
determine the device’s position using the other 3 satellites. Also
knowing the satellite’s coordinates or position by the signal they emit,
the device can obtain the absolute coordinates or exact location of the
device, person, or vehicle.

altitude with great precision, some of the activities than can be used are:
It can guide you to a determined location
It can calculate your location which can help you locate yourself on
a map
It can help you design routes

NAVIGATION
This section will show you how to use the personal navigation system
quickly and easily. You will learn how to use all of the available options
and also the best way to go from one point to another.
In order to be able to go from one point to another, the GPS device will
use the GPS satellites and the internal software. What you will have to
do is place the GPS device in an area without interferences so that it
can receive information from the GPS satellites directly.
Power the GPS device on and press the GPS button. Direct the device
towards the sky and make sure there is nothing interfering with it. The
navigation system is available in several languages; make sure to read
this manual before trying to make any adjustments.
The main menu is your central point of access to all functions of your
personal navigation system. It allows you to nd and set your
destination, manage your favourites and control all settings of your
device.
ENGLISH
ENGLISH-30
On the left hand panel, there are four large buttons:
Destination lets you choose your destination – either by searching
for an address (see page 37), choosing an entry from the POI
directory or a city guide (see page 42), selecting a location from the
map (see page 45) or a recently visited location (see page 46).
Favourites allows you to manage your favourites (like bookmarks,
recently visited locations, trips). You can rename, sort or delete
them.
