1 N477 GPS Receiver
The N477 receiver is a vehicle navigation
product.
It uses GPS signals from satellites to
calculate your precise location and compute
navigational information.
The N477 uses its position and movement
to overlay this information on detailed maps
to provide a visual representation of your
location.
With the N477 receiver you can:
• Save searches and addresses under the
OneTouch™ menu for fast, convenient
access to favorite destinations and
searches.
• Store your home address so you can
quickly get routing details from wherever
you are to your home.
• Enter and save addresses in your address
book that can be accessed at any time
and get routing information to that
address.
• Route to an address that you enter using
the QuickSpell™ and Smart City search for
easy, errorless address entry.
• Route to any point of interest (POI) that
has been preloaded into your N477
receiver.
• Create a route with multiple destinations.
Handy for business people who need
routing information to many destinations.
• View POIs that are near exits ahead of
you on the highway. The Highway Exit
POIs function provides you with a list of
gas stations, restaurants, hotels and auto
repair shops located nearby exits you
are approaching while travelling on the
interstate.
• Save location information to create a map
later of the places you went.
• Customize your N477 receiver to meet
your needs using the Settings menu.
The user interface for the N477 receiver is
intended to be easy and simple to follow.
The N477 receiver has a built-in battery. Note
that a fully charged N477 with 7” screen only
has about 30 minutes of battery life. If you
need or wish to use external power, you can
use an optional AC power adapter.
While the N477 has a powerful GPS chipset,
you may not get strong enough satellite
signals to compute your location when
indoors or in a parking garage. If you find
you are not getting strong enough satellite
signals while in a garage or other structure,
move to a location where there is a clear view
of the sky and you should immediately see an
improvement in signal strength.
The N477 receiver includes Voice Alerts (both
prerecorded and Text-to-Speech) for driving
instructions.
You may never need this manual, but if
you do, we hope you find it useful and the
instructions easy to follow.
