SmartVision3 - User Manual
Page 31 on 52
During a navigation session, please respect the warnings described herein. Whatever your travel
mode, navigation instructions given by the Kapten application should not free you from respecting
the road traffic rules and behave responsibly. Your attention should be focused primarily on your
environment. Stay alert and attentive during your trip and respect other users, either pedestrians,
cyclists, motorcyclists, or motorists. Finally, use common sense before obeying a navigation
instruction from the Kapten application. Carefully observe the signs and the geometry of sidewalks
and streets. If you are unable to take the direction indicated by the Kapten application, it will
automatically recalculate your trip from your new position. Please note that this product relies on
the positioning system of your Smartphone. Accurate determination of your position depends on
the GPS signal strength, which depends heavily on your environment, where you are, how you
carry your handset, and on digital mapping data. Thus, KAPSYS cannot guarantee that the
instructions given by the navigation system are accurate.
The Kapten application is not operational until the GPS feature is activated. If the GPS is not
active, you will be requested to activate it upon starting the application.
Map download
By default, no map is installed on your SmartVision3, you must first download the maps you are
interest in using an Internet connection. Select the country you want to install from the list and
press the "OK" button to start the download. Once the download is complete, the application must
be restarted to install the new mapping.
Good to know:
your downloaded maps are saved by default in the internal memory of your
SmartVision3. However, you can change the location of your saved maps using the "Map
Management" option in the application settings.
