S Y M B O L S A N D

Warranty

Please pay special attention to the WARNING symbols and statements in this manual.

Statements identify conditions that could result in personal injury or loss of life.

WARNINGS

DO NOT mount the unit over airbag panels or within airbag

Notice Caution expansion spaces. The force of an expanding airbag can thrust objects in its path toward the driver or passengers with injurious result.

n DO NOT think this NAV ONE is a substitute for personal judgment.

The route suggestions should never supersede any local traffic regulation, personal judgment or knowledge of safe driving practices. Before making any maneuvers suggested by the NAV

ONE system (for example, a U-turn or a left turn), verify that the maneuver can be legally and safely completed. Do not follow route suggestions if they suggest an unsafe or illegal maneuver, would place the vehicle in an unsafe situation or would route the vehicle into an area that could be unsafe.

n DO NOT program this NAV ONE while driving. Only a passenger should operate controls or program the unit while the vehicle is in motion. The driver should not program the system unless the vehicle is parked in a safe location.

n ONLY glance at the screen when necessary and safe to do so.

Listen to the computer voice guidance. If prolonged viewing is necessary, pull off the road to a safe location.

WARNINGS

DO NOT depend on this NAV ONE system to locate emergency services (such as police, fire stations, hospitals and clinics).

The database may not include all emergency service providers.

Use judgment and ask for directions in these situations.

n DO NOT position the unit in a location that obstructs the driver’s view of the road, instruments or controls to operate the vehicle.

n DO NOT drive the vehicle unless the unit is securely attached to the windshield with the supplied bracket and suction cup or is fastened by other reliable means to keep it from becoming a projectile hazard inside the vehicle in the event of a violent maneuver or collision.

n DO NOT disassemble or modify the system; personal injury or damage could result. If a problem occurs, stop using the system immediately and contact Cobra. Changes or modifications to the system may void its compliance with FCC rules and make it illegal to use.

n DO position the unit so the screen can be viewed with just a quick glance.

ONE unit is intended for use only as a navigational aid and should not be relied upon to the exclusion of other information. Be aware of conditions around the vehicle and compare them to the information provided by the NAV ONE system.

n The Global Positioning System is provided and operated by the

U.S. government, which is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. That system is subject to changes, which could affect the accuracy and performance of this NAV ONE unit.

n This unit is not waterproof. Do not allow liquids to splash on it nor expose it to rain during operation or transfer from vehicle to vehicle.

n This unit can be operated in temperatures between 32°F and 140°F

(0°C and 60°C).

n The NAV ONE’s map database provides information on suggested routes without regard to some factors that may affect the user’s driving experience. For example, the system does not reflect all road detours, closures or construction, some road characteristics

(such as road surface, slope or grade, weight or height restrictions, etc.), weather conditions and similar factors. The NAV ONE 4500

(and 4000 when equipped with the optional traffic receiver) overlays traffic information on the Map. However, this data may be more or less complete, depending on the provider.

Use personal judgment or the navigation system’s detour function to develop an alternate route if necessary.

Customer

Assistance

CAUTIONS unit is turned on. The NAV ONE unit contains a hard drive which spins at high speed while the unit is turned on. Handling the unit while the drive is spinning could damage it. When the unit is off, the hard drive is parked in a more secure condition.

n Dismount the unit when parked. This will not only minimize the chance of theft but will also reduce the unit’s exposure to extreme temperatures and strong sunlight which can shorten the life of the internal components.

F C C C O M P L I A N C E

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC interference limits for Class B digital devices for home or office use. These limits are designed to provide more reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation and are more stringent than “outdoor” requirements.

Operation of this device is subject to the following conditions:

1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and

2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Put the unit where it is visible at a glance.

INSTALLATION

The NAV ONE requires very little installation beyond putting it at a convenient location

Assistance and securing it in place. The only connection required is to the vehicle’s 12-volt power port.

Secondary Icons

When locating and securing the NAV ONE in the vehicle, keep in mind the warnings and cautions on pages 4 and 5 to allow using the NAV ONE safely while driving the vehicle:

Notice n Put the unit where it can be seen at a glance and the voice instructions can be heard.

n Do not put the unit where it will obstruct the driver’s view of the road or interfere with the use of vehicle instruments and controls.

Caution

WARNING

If the unit is not securely attached to

Warning the vehicle, it can become a projectile hazard to the vehicle’s occupants during a violent maneuver or a collision. The unit can cause serious injury under such conditions.

n Do not put the unit over airbag panels or within airbag expansion spaces.

An important consideration in positioning the NAV ONE is its ability to “see” the sky. Radio signals from the GPS constellation of satellites are weak and cannot penetrate the solid portions of a vehicle’s structure. The top of the NAV ONE contains the

GPS antenna and needs maximum exposure to the sky through the windshield. This will allow the unit to receive signals from as many satellites as possible in various vehicle headings.

ì

NOTE

Some vehicles have windshields with metallic coatings or integral heating systems that can block GPS satellite signals even though the unit “sees” the sky. In those vehicles, an accessory external antenna will need to be mounted outside the vehicle and connected to the unit. See accessories and order form on pages 26 and 27 for ordering information.

Let the NAV ONE “see” the sky.

Installation

To secure and connect the NAV ONE:

1. Select a suitable location where the unit can be mounted.

7. Adjust the unit position using the knobs and tighten securely.

2. Separate the mounting bracket from the unit.

3. Press the suction cup against the windshield.

4. Rotate the lock lever down toward the base.

8. If the unit will rest on the dash or might contact it, apply the foam strip to the bottom of the unit to protect the dash.

5. Test suction cup adhesion by pulling on the bracket.

6. Attach the unit to the bracket. Put the slots on the back of the unit over the prongs and slide the unit down.

9. Plug the power cord into the unit and the vehicle’s

12-volt power port.

ì

NOTE

It is best to temporarily remove the NAV ONE unit when the vehicle is parked to prevent theft or component damage due to temperature extremes. The bracket can be left attached to the windshield for quick reinstallation of the unit.

C H E C K I N G G P S S I G N A L

Once the NAV ONE is installed and the vehicle is in an open area, turn the unit on and observe the GPS signal indicator while the Map (or any other mode that shows

GPS signal strength) is displayed. If the indicator is either yellow or red, the NAV ONE may not be “seeing” the sky and may need to be repositioned.

S TA R T- U P T I M E

When the NAV ONE is new (or has been idle for more than seven days or has moved more than 500 miles while off), it can take up to five minutes for the system to lock onto the GPS satellites. After such a start-up, the system can be left turned on for 20 minutes or more to download GPS satellite data. This data will allow much faster satellite acquisition and lock — typically less than a minute — when the system is subsequently turned on.
