1. Welcome The TeleNav GPS Navigator™ application on your device uses GPS position determination technology and access to your carrier’s data network to provide you with driving directions and a host of other services, including: • GPS navigation that gives you turn-by-turn directions to any destination address in the continental United States. If you miss a turn or get off-track, TeleNav GPS Navigator will calculate a new route for you.
WARNING: Install the equipment safely. If you are using a device mounting kit, make sure that it does not obstruct your vision. You may wish to charge the device while using TeleNav GPS Navigator. If so, make sure that the charging cable does not interfere with any of the vehicle’s 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, Inc.
HTC 8525 The 8525 device features a pull-out keyboard for easy typing. If the keyboard is pulled out, the screen will change to landscape mode. If not, the screen is in portrait mode. TeleNav GPS Navigator can be used in either mode. NOTE: You must have an HTC 8525 device with a Windows Mobile 6 Operating System to download TeleNav GPS Navigator v5.2. If your 8525 currently runs on Windows Mobile 5, you will download TeleNav GPS Navigator v4.1. To upgrade to Windows Mobile 6, go to http://www.america.htc.
Samsung BlackJack 2 Icons on the Blackjack 2 screen are laid out differently, so the screenshots throughout the document are slightly different than what’s on the actual device. Application functions are still the same. Menu key OK key Power/End button Function key 5. Installing TeleNav GPS Navigator Before installing TeleNav GPS Navigator, be sure you have a subscription plan.
6. Launching TeleNav GPS Navigator To launch TeleNav, find the TeleNav icon on the device’s Program menu and select it. After starting TeleNav, the splash screen appears for a few seconds. Login The next screen will collect your login information. Your phone number is automatically generated. Your phone number MUST be the same as your carrier phone number beginning with area code so that when you call the Voice Address Input System, you will not need to type it in.
If you have already signed up for the TeleNav service, then the next Login screen will prompt you to type in the 4-digit PIN you provided when registering for TeleNav services at www.telenav.com. If TeleNav determines that no account has been created for your login phone number, you will not be asked to enter your PIN. If this is the case and you have not yet signed up for the TeleNav service, you can still use a free version of the application called TeleNav Maps 2.0.
TeleNav Bluetooth GPS Configuration For the HTC 8525 device, the GPS location information is provided by an external Bluetooth GPS receiver. When you first launch TeleNav GPS Navigator, you will be asked whether you want to configure the Bluetooth receiver. HTC 8925 and Samsung BlackJack 2 devices have an internal Bluetooth GPS receiver, so users of these devices can skip this section. 1. Make sure you have a Bluetooth GPS receiver nearby and powered ON. Then click Yes. 2.

Initial Driving Directions Within a few seconds of selecting a Drive To location, TeleNav GPS Navigator calculates what it believes to be an optimal route to your destination and tells you how to start your trip from your current location.
