Now your navigation software Mobile Navigator can guide you to your destination quickly and reliably ­ without leafing through maps. The American military developed the Global Positioning System (GPS) in the 70s to be used as a guided weapons system. GPS is based on a total of 24 satellites that circle the earth. They constantly transmit their position and time. The GPS receiver tracks this data and calculates its own geographical position based on the different position and time data broadcast by the various satellites. Data from at least three satellites is required to indicate position with a sufficient degree of accuracy. The altitude above sea level can also be determined if data from 4 or more satellites can be obtained. The position can be indicated within 3 meters. The position can be used as a starting point for calculating a route after Mobile Navigator has determined your position. Your navigation device maps contain the geographical coordinates for points of interest, streets, and cities that are digitally acquired. This allows the navigation device to calculate a route from a given starting point to a given destination. The calculation and depiction of the current position on the map is repeated every second. In this way you can always see where you are moving on the map. 2.2 Important safety instructions It is in your own best interest to carefully read the following safety instructions and warnings before starting your navigation system. 2.2.1 Safety instructions for navigation The navigation system is used at the users own risk. Caution: Do not operate the navigation system while driving. This will reduce the risk of having an accident! Caution: Do not look at the display unless the traffic situation allows you to do so! - 12 - How your navigation system works User Manual NAVIGON Mobile Navigator Caution: Traffic regulations have priority over any instructions that the navigation system may give. Caution: Only follow the instructions of the navigation system when the circumstances and the road traffic regulations allow for doing so! The navigation system will guide you to your destination even if you deviate from the calculated route. Caution: The United States government operates the Global Positioning System (GPS) and is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. Changes by the United States government may affect the accuracy and performance of all GPS equipment, including your personal navigation device. Caution: Ordinances or laws may restrict use of certain abilities of your navigation device on public or private land. Note: Look at the map and the direction of the arrow if you have not understood the spoken instructions or you are not sure where to turn at the next intersection. 2.2.2 Safety instructions for a switch-on in the vehicle Caution: Do not attach the cradle for the navigation device in an area that would obstruct an air bag. Caution: NOTICE TO DRIVERS IN CALIFORNIA AND MINNESOTA: State law prohibits drivers in California and Minnesota from using mounts on their windshields while operating motor vehicles. Navigon does not take any responsibility for any fines, penalties, or damages that may be incurred as a result of disregarding this notice. (See California Vehicle Code Section 26708(a); Minnesota Statutes 2005, Section 169.71) Caution: When installing the cradle, ensure that it does not represent a risk in the event of an accident.
