Uniden GNS 8360 Quick Start Manual Download

Page: 82 / 120

5 Settings

iGO provides several settings in order to let you customise the functions of the

program. The Settings screen can be accessed directly from the Main menu screen

(Page

) and from the map screens by using the battery icon (Page

33), while

some of its sub-screens are accessible from other parts of the program.

5.1 General settings

These are the basic settings of iGO.

5.1.1 Safety Mode

Safety mode will disable the touch-screen above 10 km/h (6 mph) to keep your

attention on the road.

You are still able to use the hardware buttons, but you cannot set a new destination

or change the settings.

When you disable Safety Mode, iGO will warn you.
