About GPS System & Location Accuracy
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the US government, which is solely
responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. The system is subject to changes which
could affect the accuracy and performance of all GPS equipment. In addition, the GPS
system itself limits the accuracy of the distance indicated on the device’s display to
within approximately 3-5 meters of the actual saved location.
About GPS Signals
This device must acquire GPS satellite signals to operate. The device may not be able to
acquire signals if located indoors or near tall obstructions (such as trees or tall buildings).
Go to an area free from tall obstructions to use the device. When the device acquires
satellite signals, the green LED indicator is steady. When it loses satellite signals, you
are traveling away from the stored active location, or the device cannot acquire a GPS
signal; the LED is red. This product is designed to provide direction to a saved location.
It is not designed as a monitoring device for tall obstructions, hazardous or weather
conditions, or other factors that may affect safety while using this device. For more
information about GPS, visit Audiovox Electronics Corporation’s Web site www.audiovox.

Vehicle Use Notice
Audiovox is committed to safety and responsible use. Do not use this GPS device to

the motor vehicle’s operator or the motor vehicle’s safety features (such as an air bag).
Windshields and vehicle windows integrated with metallic materials, such as defrosters
or tinting film, can degrade GPS reception inside a vehicle.
