1. Welcome TeleNav™ 5.1 utilizes the integration of GPS position determination technology, the Java™ programming environment, and access to your wireless carrier’s data network. The Research in Motion BlackBerry 8100™, 8300™, 8310™, 8700™, and 8800™ provide both the Java environment and access to the wireless network. The TeleNav application provides: • GPS navigation that punctually guides you turn-by-turn to any destination address in the Continental U.S.
WARNING: Install the equipment safely. If you are using a device mounting kit, make sure that it does not obscure your vision. You may wish to charge the device while using TeleNav. If so, make sure the charging cable does not interfere with any of the vehicle controls. WARNING: Drive safely and use common sense. The vehicle operator’s personal judgment, traffic regulations, and common sense must always take precedence over the instructions provided by TeleNav.
4. Device Controls The following graphic shows the control buttons for the BlackBerry 8800 device. Other Blackberry devices may vary. NOTE: The 8700c device has a trackwheel on the side of the device instead of a trackball. Throughout this document, the term “trackball” is used to refer to the trackwheel for 8700c users.
5. Getting Started with TeleNav The TeleNav GPS Navigator application that resides within your BlackBerry requires a TeleNav subscription and means of accessing the public Internet. TeleNav Account You can create a TeleNav account by visiting www.telenav.com or by calling 1-888-353-6284. Software Installation TeleNav can be downloaded directly onto your BlackBerry using its Internet Browser. NOTE: This approach may take 5-30 minutes depending on whether you are in GPRS or EDGE coverage. 1.
3. Input the OTA download link: //ota.telenav.com/att/tnn 4. Press Enter and select OK. 5. After the download process has completed successfully, locate the TeleNav application icon in the applications menu. Network Access TeleNav GPS Navigator uses the public Internet to access its servers for mapping, routing, and search services from your device. If you are not using your BlackBerry for e-mail services, you will still need to add an individual BlackBerry e-mail plan to have access to data services.
6. Launching TeleNav If the application menu is hidden, press the Menu key to expose it. Highlight the TeleNav icon on the BlackBerry Home Screen and press the trackball button or the Enter key. TeleNav’s icon If you are using a list theme, scroll down to Applications and enter the applications menu. Then scroll down to “TeleNav 4” and press Enter. After starting TeleNav, the splash screen will appear for a few seconds.
You will then be asked to set your language preference settings. Your choice will directly affect the language displayed throughout the application and the audible directions. TIP: The language settings can be modified in the TeleNav Preferences menu. Terms of Use Next, in order to continue the TeleNav registration process, you must agree to the Terms Of Use. Click the trackball and select Accept + Log In to continue.
The TeleNav Warning screen appears. If you agree to the terms, choose OK to continue. During your first use of TeleNav, the device will download the audible and graphical content needed to build the displays and produce audible messages. The alert screen similar to that shown on the right advises you that this is taking place. The time it takes to complete the download depends on whether you are in GPRS or EDGE coverage.

The preparatory audible tone may not be sounded if the distance to the next turn only allows time for the action tone.
The View menu has the following options: 3D Moving Map A 3-dimensional map with turn icons (default).

If you get a low battery warning, connect a charging cable as soon as possible.
Unable to generate a route TeleNav GPS Navigator could not generate a route between the two endpoints of the route. This may be a temporary error if you have a weak GPS signal when establishing the origin, but may be due to errors in the map data in the area around the destination.

If you are using a Bluetooth headset, be sure to click the “$” (Speaker On) key on the device while in navigation mode so that you will be able to hear the audio prompts. Why can’t I get the “Call in Address” feature to work for entering an address? If you have never placed a call on your new device, the “Call in Address” feature may not work. To resolve this issue, simply place a call from the device’s Applications menu.
