Safety while Operating the Device
IMPORTANT
: Failure to adhere to the following guidelines may result in
potentially hazardous situations and may result in serious injury or
even death.
•
Never operate/interact with the device while you are driving.
•
National road traffic regulations and local traffic conditions always take
precedence over the instructions given by any navigation device.
•
Do not install the navigation device in such a manner as to obstruct the
driver's view of the road or interfere with the operation of a vehicle's
controls or safety features such as air bag systems.
•
Use voice prompts while driving in order to minimise the time spent
viewing the device. Do not become distracted by the device while
driving.
•
The route calculated by the navigation device is a suggested route and
should be used for reference only. It is not a substitute for alert driver
behaviour and common sense. Drivers must continue to pay attention to
all road regulations and hazards regardless of instructions from the
navigation device.
Safety While Travelling
The Hema HN7 NAVIGATOR is a valuable aid for navigation. It should not be
used as a replacement for hard-copy maps and other traditional navigational
aids while travelling, especially in remote areas. Always ensure that you have
adequate backup systems in place to ensure your personal safety.
Local conditions can change rapidly, therefore it is recommended to seek
advice from local authorities and pay attention to road signs, particularly where
those signs advise of serious hazards, such as local flooding etc.
Battery
This product uses a re-chargeable lithium-polymer battery which is not user
serviceable and not user replaceable. Failing to adhere to these guidelines may
reduce the life expectancy of the battery or present the risk of electrolyte leak,
explosion and fire resulting in chemical burn, damage and/or injury.
•
When charging from a Personal Computer (PC), switch the device OFF.
Disconnect the device when it is fully charged (indicated by the
RED
device charge light turning OFF). Charging from a PC will take 4 to 6
hours depending on the power output of the PC USB port.
•
Before storage, partially charge the battery to approximately 50%
capacity.
•
Lithium-polymer batteries do not need to be fully charged. A partial
charge will generally extend the useful life of your battery, but results in
reduced running time from that charge.
•
Only use the original 12/24V car adapter supplied with the Hema HN7
NAVIGATOR. Use of nonstandard parts or accessories may result in
malfunctions and/or severely damage the device and may void your
warranty.
•
Do not expose the device to a damp, wet or corrosive environment.
•
Do not expose the device to excessive pressures, heat sources, high
temperatures, or extreme sunlight conditions, such as an unattended
vehicle on a hot day.
