Welcome Screen This next screen describes the services TeleNav provides.

Registration The next screen will collect your TeleNav account number and the PIN you provided when registering for TeleNav services at www.telenav.com.
TeleNav Bluetooth GPS Configuration The GPS location information is provided by a TeleNav Bluetooth GPS receiver, therefore you must configure the GPS receiver before you can access information that is dependent upon GPS information in TeleNav. Make certain that your TeleNav Bluetooth GPS receiver is powered ON at this point during the setup. Press Yes to configure the settings. A scan of all nearby devices will be completed and a list will be displayed.
Recent Cities The Recent Cities list is automatically extracted from the Recent Stops. Selecting a recent city transfers the city and state to the Address Input form so all you need to do is add the street address. Keying in an Address The form allows you to specify a street address as, “123 Johnson St”, or an intersection as “Johnson at Main”. Note the use of AT or AND in an intersection specification.
Your response> 1620 TeleNav prompt> I heard 1620. To change this say GO BACK. TeleNav prompt> Address entered. Please launch TeleNav on your phone After the Voice Address Input System has completed its dialog with you, it will advise you to launch the TeleNav application, and then it will hang up. The recognition system may reply back with an incorrectly recognized input. When this happens, simply say, “Go Back”, and repeat the data entry.
Recorded Locations The Locations list appears to be similar to the Recent Stops list when it is displayed. Waypoints are entered using the mark feature in TeleNav GPS Tools, and from Maps. When the 20-item capacity of the push down list is exceeded, the eldest element on the list is removed when the new element is added. When Locations are deleted from the list, the list is compressed. Locations are not derived from knowledge of a street address, but Recent Stops and Favorites are.
8. Using TeleNav The TeleNav Menu The TeleNav Menu selections are a) Navigation, b) Biz Finder, c) Map, d) GPS Tools, e) Preferences, and f) Support. You Exit TeleNav from this menu by pressing the Exit button. You can return to TeleNav Home using the Menu key from elsewhere within TeleNav. Navigation and Directions If the handheld is not registered, upon attempting to use this service, you will be directed to the registration process described above.
GPS Origin Refinement If are using GPS Navigation and you are in a parking lot or similar area where your location does not exactly map to a specific street, you may see a pop-up that shows TeleNav’s best estimate of which street you are on, and allows you to change it. If you elect to change the starting street, a list of neighboring streets will be presented, and you can make an alternate selection from the list. If you do nothing, the first pop-up will disappear after a few seconds.
Moving Map View With Moving maps turned on in Preferences (as is the default view), you will see a map and a highlighted route during your trip. The map is oriented so that the segment you are on will be drawn upward from the bottom of the screen so that you do not have to deal with a confusing North-oriented view. The main turn icon is fitted on the right as shown below.
Next Turn View When the next turn view is turned on you will see an arrow indicating your direction of travel. When a turn along your route is upcoming the arrow will change indicting the turn distance and direction. When the next turn along the route almost immediately follows the turn indicated by the main turn icon, a second turn icon appears where the speed and heading information is shown below.
Audio Guidance Tones TeleNav delivers guidance tones as you drive. A guidance tone will be heard shortly after making a turn, provided that there is time to deliver it and the preparatory tone that follows. The preparatory audio tones will be heard no less than 30 seconds before reaching a turn, and the action tones will be heard no less than 10 seconds before reaching the turn. The preparatory audio guidance tones may not be heard if the distance to go only allows time for the action tones.
Biz Finder Select Biz Finder and use the Address Selector screen, and perhaps the Address Input screen to help TeleNav determine where you want to search. Once you have picked a point or an area, you can search for businesses, gas stations or for gas by price. A business search requires entering part of the business name, selection of a category, or both.
Name and Category Combined You can perform a brand name search that is restricted to category. Enter part of the business name in the first row of the form. Scroll down to one of the nodes of the category tree. Click on category to open the node exposing its branches. Any listed branch that is preceded by a “+” can be expanded as well to expose lower level detail. Any listed category that is not preceded by a “+” is a leaf category that has no lower level break out.
Press the Menu button for the options that are: 1) drive to the address, 2) save the business address for later, 3) call it using your phone (requires a calling plan) or 4) obtain a map around the business location. If you Save It, the address is added to the Recent Stops list. If you Map It, you will be presented with a map of the area surrounding the business address. The Call it feature is only present if a phone number is shown on the details page.
GPS Tools If you select GPS Tools from the main menu, you will be taken to the GPS Tools submenu. You can make a choice by selecting an item. Otherwise, press Back to return to the main menu. Compass If you choose Compass, you will see a display similar to a nautical compass. More correctly, it actually displays course over ground, the direction you are traveling if you are moving. The screen also provides current latitude, longitude, and speed.
View Locations This menu option allows you to view a map of the locations that you have saved for future reference. Highlight the location that you wish to view and select it, there will be brief activity to download the map. Use the zoom bar on the right to zoom in and out of the map. The default zoom level is set to 4, the zoom level ranges between 1 and 8. Use the navigation keys to move the location cursor, moving the cursor off the map will cause the map to pan to that location.
