Basic Operation
TIP
- Turn on the vehicle then attach the power cord
to the GPS to avoid the possibility of a damaging
electrical surge. Avoid the use of an inverter until you
are sure you have the correct power. Refrain from
sharing the GPS with the same power outlet as other
devices as the GPS requires more power than the
external accessories support. The two to three plug Y
adapters distribute power among the devices and will
therefore most likely leave an insufficient amount of
power for the GPS.
Truck and coach drivers should always use the
provided vehicle power cord to power the GPS while
in use in the vehicle. Power the GPS using either the
DC (vehicle charger), the AC (wall charger), or the
built-in battery. Please keep in mind that the built in
battery is strictly for back up use and should not be
relied upon for commercial drivers.
NOTE - USB computer cables do not provide sufficient
power to charge the GPS. Use the provided wall
charger or the vehicle charger instead.
Hardware User Guide
16
The GPS features a built-in Li-On battery to supply
power when it is not connected to a power source.
The battery indicator will show bars flashing as it is
charging. When fully charged, the LED will change
from red to blue. The battery icon
will not
change colors.
Depending on the Backlight brightness level, and
other functions such as Bluetooth and FM
connection, you can expect approximately 45-90
minutes of use without a charger. It is
recommended to always drive with the vehicle
charger cord plugged into the GPS. Be sure to take
proper precautions to protect the GPS. Do not leave
near a fire, do not allow it to get wet, do not
attempt to open the GPS.
2.2 Window Mount
Assemble the plastic cradle to the window mount.
Attach the GPS to the included window mount and
position in a location where it has an unobstructed
view of the sky so it receives a strong satellite signal.
2.3 Audio Out
Attach an external speaker or headphones as
desired.
