Your PND uses GPS technology for navigation. The device receives signals from a number of GPS satellites in order to
determine your current position.
• Place your PND in a location with an unobstructed ‘view’ to the sky to set up your first satellite connection. In a car
this will usually be on the dashboard.
It may take up to 5 minutes to establish the first connection. Subsequent connections will be faster (30 seconds
to 1 minute), but if you have not used the unit for several days or are very far away from the last location
where you used it, it may take up to 5 minutes again to find a strong signal.

Using your VXA-5000/4300 safely
The precautions and instructions stated in this Guide shall be executed in the English language. In the event
of any discrepancy between the English language original hereof and any translation hereof into any other
language, the English language original shall govern.
Driving precautions
When using the device in a vehicle, the vehicle operator is solely responsible for operating the vehicle in a safe
manner. It is your responsibility to comply with all traffic laws. Failure to follow the directions below could result in
death or catastrophic bodily injury to you or to others.
• Do not attempt to enter information or configure the device while driving. If you need to do so, safely pull out of
the traffic and come to a stop at a safe location before using your device.
• Vehicle operators must maintain full surveillance of pertinent driving conditions at all times. Minimize the need to
view the device screen while driving and use voice prompts to guide you.
• Never place the device on the passenger seat or any place in the car where it can become a projectile during a
collision or stop.
• An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT mount the device in the area over the air bag or in the air bag
deployment area.
• Although reasonable attempt has been made to ensure that the database in your VXA-5000/4300 is accurate, such
information may change from time to time. The VXA-5000/4300 database does not include any of the following:
Legal restrictions (such as vehicular type, weight, height, width, load and speed restrictions)
Road slope, bridge height, weight or other limits
Construction work zones or hazards; road closures, traffic conditions
Weather conditions
Emergency events
76
Using your VXA-5000/4300 safely
System maintenance and user support
It is your responsibility to disregard any unsafe, hazardous or illegal route suggestions. Your judgment and common
sense shall take precedence over any information that may be received through the use of your device.
Operating precautions
Device usage precautions
• Do not use your device anywhere it may be exposed to water or in conditions of high humidity.
• Do not expose the device to extreme temperatures, which can occur in a vehicle under direct sunlight. Such
exposure can shorten the life of the device, damage the plastic housing and/or battery, and increase the risk of explosion.
• Do not subject your device to sudden and severe temperature changes. This could result in moisture condensation
in the device that could cause damage to the device. In the event of moisture condensation, allow the device to
dry out completely.
• Do not leave the device unattended on an automobile dashboard. When your vehicle is parked and the device is
not in use, protect it from theft and extreme heat by storing it in an unobtrusive location and away from direct sunlight.
• The device is not a toy. Never allow children to play with the device.
• Never touch the liquid that might leak from a broken liquid crystal display. Contact with this liquid could cause a skin
rash. If the crystal display liquid should come into contact with the skin or clothing, wash it immediately with clean water.
• Never raise the sound volume level too high when using the device with earphones. An excessive sound volume
level could cause damage to your hearing.
Car mount precautions
• Some countries prohibit the mounting of any electronic device on the vehicle dashboard. Be sure to check the
local laws for applicable mounting before installing the car mount.
• Some newer vehicle models may have a heat reflective shield embedded in the windshield. This may in some
cases obstruct the GPS signal reception. If you encounter this problem in the vehicle, you need to purchase an
external GPS antenna.
System maintenance and user support
77
System maintenance and user support
• The heating and cooling cycle of a vehicle's interior can loosen the adhesion of the suction cup. Check the vacuum seal
of the car mount for adequate adhesion each time you use the unit, and reinstall if necessary.
• If the car mount has problem staying on, clean the plastic suction cup with alcohol, then reinstall. Moistening the
suction cup may help adhesion in some cases.
• To avoid extreme temperature from damaging the car mount, remove the unit if the temperature inside your
vehicle exceeds 70°C (160°F).
• The dip in humidity and temperature at night can loosen the adhesion of the suction cup. For this reason, as well
as for security, it is recommended that you remove both the car mount kit and the VXA-5000/4300 when leaving
your vehicle overnight.
Storage precautions
• Do not store the device anywhere it may be exposed to water or in conditions of high humidity.
• When the device is not in use for an extended period of time, bring it indoor and store it in a location with
temperature range of -20° to +70°C (-40° to 140°F) .
Cleaning the VXA-5000/4300
• Use a damp soft dry cloth to wipe the device’s casing (not the display screen). Never use organic solvents such as
benzene or paint thinner to clean the device. Use of these solvents can cause deformation or discoloration.
• Use a soft, clean, lint-free cloth to clean the display screen. Moistened LCD screen wipes could also be used as required.
Troubleshooting the VXA-5000/4300
Recalibrating the screen
If tapping an item doesn’t bring up the appropriate response, it means your device has lost its calibration. Recalibrate
