Cleaning the unit
• If the faceplate of this unit is stained, wipe it

off with a cloth moistened with neutral cleaner,
then wipe it again with a clean soft dry cloth.

with a hard cloth or using a volatile liquid such

Acquiring GPS signal
The first time you turn on this unit, you must
wait while the system acquires satellite signals
for the first time. This process could take up
to several minutes. Make sure your vehicle
is outdoors in an open area away from tall
buildings and trees for fastest acquisition.
After the system acquires satellites for the first
time, it will acquire satellites quickly each time
thereafter.
