Q: Do I need an additional antenna?
A:
In most cases, an additional remote antenna is not necessary due to our powerful 12
parallel channel receiver. However, the StreetPilot needs a direct view of the sky, so
for applications in which the view of the sky is obstructed from the StreetPilot an
optional remote antenna may be necessary (see Appendix B).
Q: Do I need to remove the batteries from my StreetPilot when I connect the
unit to the cigarette lighter (using an optional adapter)?
A:
No. When the unit detects that external power is available, the unit will switch to
the external source and not use the batteries in the unit. It is recommended that
the batteries remain in the unit in the event that you have a loss of external power.
If the batteries remain in the unit, when external power is lost the unit will auto-
matically switch to batteries and continue to function normally.
Q: Will I lose my data if my batteries go dead?
A:
No. The StreetPilot has a lithium backup battery that lasts about 10 years.
Q: Will my StreetPilot give me turn-by-turn directions?
A:
The StreetPilot does not automatically give turn-by-turn directions when a desti-
nation is chosen. It tells you the direction and distance and draws a straight line to
your destination. In addition, by using the
R
button, you can select your start-
ing point and your destination and then manually select a route by choosing the
streets you wish to travel (see page 52). After you have “built a route” you will see
turn-by-turn directions.
