Please read through this section carefully and follow the safety notes as
outlined. Doing so will ensure your Navigator will operate reliably without
compromising your safety.
1.1 Operating Environment
External Influences
- Do not allow objects to drop onto the device from above. Do not place
objects on top of the device or rub the screen with abrasive materials
or objects such as car keys etc. Do not drop the device.
- Do not use sharp or abrasive objects to operate the touch screen other
than a stylus designed for this purpose.
- Avoid prolonged use in high-vibration and high-shock environments.
- Do not carry/transport inflammable liquids, gases or explosives in the
same compartment as the device and its accessories.
- Wireless devices could interfere with the reception of satellite signals
causing unstable signal reception.
GPS
- GPS signals are produced and monitored under the responsibility of
the United States government who is solely responsible for the
availability and accuracy of the system.
- GPS Satellite signals do not penetrate solid objects (apart from glass)
and as such will not operate from within a building unless an external
re-radiating GPS aerial is fitted.
- GPS signal reception may be impaired by dense obstacles above the
ground such as tall buildings, trees or extremely bad weather.
- In order to operate efficiently, the HEMA NAVIGATOR 5” should be
positioned with a view to the open sky (through glass is acceptable).
Temperature
- Do not leave your HEMA NAVIGATOR 5” lying or mounted on your
dashboard where it will be exposed to extreme temperature conditions
and can result in malfunctions and/or dangerous situations. The device
may be operated in temperature range of -20°C – 55°C or stored in a
temperature range of -20 – 35°C.
- Keep your device away from excessive moisture. The device should be
operated in an atmospheric humidity of 45 – 80% Non-Condensed and
stored in an atmospheric humidity of 30 – 90% Non-Condensed.
- Do not expose the device to sudden and extreme temperature
fluctuations. This may result in condensation forming in the device
causing malfunction or failure. When condensation forms, wait for the
device to completely dry out before operating.
