Safety considerations
► Don’t install any device where it will block your view (including your
mirrors!) while you’re driving.
► Keep your attention on the road! Don’t try to operate or focus
on any device while you’re driving. If you have to concentrate on a
device, pull off the road for a few minutes.
► It’s a good idea to take valuable items with you when you leave you
car—that includes GPS devices. If you can’t take the device with
you, lock it in the glove compartment or hide it somewhere. And don’t
forget to take down the windshield mount: you don’t want to remind
any potential thieves that you might have some valuable mobile
electronics in the car.
Don’t leave the device in direct sunlight for a long period of time or
where the temperature could go above 60º C (140º F).

Mounting on the windshield
Make sure the device does not block your view of the road or
your mirrors.
Once you decide where you want the device, hold the suction cup in that
position, then adjust the mount so you have the best view of the device.
1) Press the suction cup flat against the windshield.
2) Push the suction lock up
(towards the suction cup)
until it snaps into place.
3) Gently pull on the mount to
make sure it is secure.
If you have trouble getting the
suction cup to stick:
► Clean the spot with an
ammonia-free cleanser.

► Make sure the spot is smooth
and flat (suction cups won’t
stick well on a curved or textured surface).
Re m o v in G T h e W in d S h ie l d m o u n T
When you release the suction latch, make sure you’re holding or
somehow supporting the device.
Lift the suction latch and use the plastic pull tab to pull the suction cup off
of the glass.

How Do I Put It in My Car?
Mounting on a flat surface
If you want to put the device somewhere other than your windshield (or
anywhere the suction cup won’t stick), you can use the anchor disk. Once
you glue the anchor disk down, the windshield mount installs inside the
disk just like it does on glass.
When you’re deciding where to put the anchor disk, here are some things
to keep in mind:
► The surface should be as flat as possible. If the disk is upside down
or at a sharp angle, it might not hold the device’s weight.
► The surface should be as smooth as possible. If the surface texture
is too rough, the glue may not stick as well.
► The anchor disk will stick permanently on most surfaces. If you
try to remove the disk, you might damage the surface.
► Don’t peel off the protective sheet until you’re ready to install the disk.
Once you expose the glue, you can’t stop easily.
1) When you decide where you want to mount the disk, hold the suction
cup in that spot and set the angle and position of the bracket (just like
you would for mounting on your windshield).
2) Clean the spot to remove any wax, grease, protecterants, etc.
3) Carefully peel the protective sheet
from the bottom of the anchor disk to expose
the glue.

4) Hold the disk exactly above the spot where you want to glue it down.
(Remember, the glue is designed to be permanent!)
5) Press the disk firmly against the surface. Push down along the
edges, too, so that every part of the disk makes good contact with the
surface.
6) Before you install the windshield mount, gently tug on the disk to make
sure it’s secure.
7) Remove the clear plastic sheet
from the top of the anchor disk.
8) Press the suction cup flat against the
anchor disk, then push the suction latch
down (towards the suction cup) to lock
it into place.

1: Warnings and Safety information
TRAX325 is a navigation system that helps you find your way to your
destination with a connected GPS receiver. TRAX325 does not transmit
your GPS position; others cannot track you.
It is important that you look at the display only when it is safe to do so.
If you are the driver of the vehicle, we recommend that you operate
TRAX325 before you start your journey. Plan the route before your
departure and stop if you need to change something in the route.
TRAX325 has a Safety Mode: if you turn on Safety Mode, you cannot
change anything in TRAX325 while the vehicle is moving at a speed of 10
km/h (6 mph) or higher. Unless only passengers operate TRAX325, we
strongly encourage you to turn on Safety Mode.
You must obey the traffic signs and follow the road geometry. If you
deviate from the route that TRAX325 recommended, TRAX325 changes
the instructions accordingly.
Never place mobile devices where it obstructs the driver’s view, where it is
in the deployment zone of an airbag or where it might cause injuries in an
accident.
2: Getting started with TRAX325
TRAX325 is optimised for in-car use. Tap the screen buttons and the map
with your fingertips.

How Do I Use It?
The typical way of using TRAX325 is to select a destination, and start
navigating. You can select your destination in the following ways (not all of
them are available in Simple mode):
•
•
Use the selected location on the map (the Cursor) (page 35).
Enter a full address or a part of an address, for example a street
name without a house number or the names of two intersecting
streets (page 46).
•
Enter an address with postal code (page 55). This way you do
not need to select the name of the settlement and the search for
street names might be faster as well.
•
•
Use a coordinate (page 60)
Use a saved location:
•
•
•
a Favourite (page 57)
a POI (page 57)

Simple and Advanced modes
The two operating modes of TRAX325 mainly differ in the menu structure
and the number of available features. The controls and screen layouts are
the same.
•
Simple mode: you have easy access to the most important
navigation functions and the basic settings only. The rest of the
settings are set to values that are optimal for typical use.
•
Advanced mode: you have access to the full functionality of
TRAX325.

Hardware button (Power on/off)
You can use TRAX325 mostly by tapping the touch screen. The device
has only one hardware button for turning power on or off.
When the device is on, pressing the power button momentarily turns the
LCD screen off (the green LED stays on and the device continues to
operate) or on. Press and hold the power button to turn the device off.
You can turn the devices on or off at any time. When the device is
switched off, TRAX325 does not calculate your GPS position and it does
not update the route or the driving instructions.
When you turn the device on again, TRAX325 continues navigating as
soon as the GPS receiver has determined your position.
Buttons and other controls on the screen
When you are using TRAX325, you usually tap buttons on the touch
screen.
You only need to confirm selections or changes in TRAX325 if the
application needs to restart, it needs to perform a major reconfiguration, or
you are about to lose some of your data or settings. Otherwise, TRAX325
saves your selections and applies the new settings without confirmation as
soon as you use the controls.

TRAX325 Concepts
Smart Zoom
Smart Zoom is a lot more than just a usual automatic zoom:
•
While following a route calculated by TRAX325: when
approaching a turn, it will zoom in and raise the view angle to
let you easily recognise your manoeuvre at the next junction.
If the next turn is at a distance, it will zoom out and lower the
view angle to be flat so you can see the road in front of you.
•
While driving without an active route in TRAX325: Smart
Zoom will zoom in if you drive slowly and zoom out to the limit
set here when you drive at high speed.
Enabling Smart Zoom

Daytime and night colour schemes
TRAX325 uses different colour schemes during the day and during the
night.
•
•
Daytime colours are similar to paper road maps.
The night colour schemes use dark colours for large objects to
keep the average brightness of the screen low.
TRAX325 offers different daytime and night colour schemes. It can also
switch automatically between the daytime and the night scheme based
on the current time and GPS position a few minutes before sunrise, when
the sky has already turned bright, and a few minutes after sunset, before it
becomes dark.
Colour scheme in tunnels
When entering a tunnel, the colours of the map change. All buildings
disappear, the large objects (such as surface waters or forests) and the
empty areas between roads become black.
However roads and streets keep their original colours from the daytime or
night colour scheme currently used.
After leaving the tunnel, the original colours return.

Track Logs
TRAX325 can log the track that you drive (page 66).
A Track Log is a recording of how your GPS position changed and it is
independent of the route TRAX325 calculated.
Track Logs can be recorded, renamed, replayed, shown on the map, exported
to the internal Flash ROM in GPX format, and deleted. See page 66.
Independently of the normal track log, you can instruct TRAX325 to record
the native GPS data received from the GPS device. These logs are saved
as separate text files on the internal Flash ROM, and they cannot be
shown or replayed in TRAX325.

POI (Points of Interest)
A point of interest (POI) is a location that someone might find useful or
interesting. TRAX325 is delivered with thousands of POIs and you can
also create your own POIs in the application.
POI locations are marked on the map with special icons. POI icons are
quite large so you can easily recognise the symbol. The icons are also
semi-transparent: they do not cover the streets and intersections behind
them.
POIs are grouped into several levels of categories and subcategories.
The icon of a POI that comes with the map shows the symbol of the
POI category. If you save your own POI, you can select an icon for it
independently of the POI category you have put it in.

Road Safety Cameras
The location of a Road Safety Camera is a special POI. They cannot be
searched like other POIs, and there is a special proximity warning only for
cameras.
The TRAX325 does not have a pre-installed speed camera
database.
NOTE
You can save the Cursor as the location of a Road Safety Camera. In this
way you can create and add to your own database of camera locations.

If you exceed the speed limit of the camera, the following also
happens:
•
Visible Warning: A symbol with the speed limit appears in the corner of
the map (for example:

•
Audible Warning: A special alert sound is played.
Camera types
There are different types of Road Safety Cameras.
Symbol Type
Description
Fixed
Some speed cameras stand by the roadside,
looking in one direction, measuring one or both
directions of the traffic. They measure your current
speed. For these speed cameras you can specify
the controlled traffic direction and the speed limit.
TRAX325 warns you when you approach these
speed cameras in the measured direction. If your
speed exceeds the speed limit near the speed
camera, TRAX325 plays a special warning sound.
Mobile
Built-in
Some speed cameras are operated from vehicles.
They do not always work and they are not set to
check a preset speed limit. The warning is similar
to fixed speed cameras, but as there is no speed
limit given, only the proximity is announced.
Some speed cameras are built into traffic lights.
They work like fixed speed cameras, but they
are difficult to spot. The warning for proximity
and speeding is the same as for the fixed speed
cameras.

Section These speed cameras work in pairs, and do not
control
measure your current speed but your average
speed between the two speed cameras. Both
identify your car and record the exact time you
pass them. They use the difference between
the two points in time to calculate your average
speed.
TRAX325 warns you when you approach one of
these speed cameras, but as you pass by, the
warning stays on, and your
average speed is measured until you reach
another speed camera of this type. If your
average speed exceeds the speed limit between
the two speed cameras, you receive the same
special warning sound as with the other speed
camera types.
In the rare case TRAX325 cannot register the
moment you pass the second speed camera (for
example, it is placed at the exit of a tunnel where
GPS position is not yet available) the warning
continues. Just tap the speed camera symbol
displayed on the screen to stop the warning.
Red
light
These cameras check if you obey traffic lights.
The warning is similar to mobile speed cameras:
as there is no speed limit given, only the proximity
is announced.
Camera directions
A speed camera can measure the speed of one direction of the traffic,
both directions, or even several directions in an intersection, when they
are mounted on a rotating base. The same directions apply to red light
cameras. TRAX325 warns you only if you drive in a measured or possibly
measured direction. The measured direction of the camera appears with
the following symbols:
Page 43

Symbol Description
The camera checks the speed of the direction into which you
are driving.
The camera checks the speed of the opposite driving
direction.
The camera checks the speed in both directions on the road.
The camera can check the speed in any direction.
Speed limit warning
Maps sometimes contain information about the speed limits of the road
segments. This information may not be available for your region (ask your
local dealer) or may not be fully correct for all roads on the map.
You can configure TRAX325 to warn you if you exceed the current limit.

3: Navigating with TRAX325
You can set up your route in TRAX325 in several ways:
•
If you need a simple route (a route with only one destination,
without any intermediate via points), you can select the
destination and start navigating to it right away
•
•
you can plan a multi-point route (available in Advanced
mode only)
you can also plan a route independently of your current GPS
position or even without GPS reception (available in Advanced
mode only)
Selecting the destination of a route
TRAX325 offers you several ways of choosing your destination and via
points (intermediate destinations):
•
•
Use the selected location on the map (the Cursor) (page 46).
Enter a full address or a part of an address, for example a street
name without a house number or the names of two intersecting
streets (page 46).
•
Enter an address with postal code (page 55). This way you do
not need to select the name of the settlement and the search for
street names might be faster as well.
•
•
Use a coordinate (page 60)
Use a saved location:
•
•
•
a Favourite (page 57)
a POI (page 57)
the History of previously set destinations and waypoints
(page 59)
If you are going to use a route later, save it before you start
navigating. Tap the following buttons:

Tips on entering addresses quickly
•
When you are entering the name of a settlement or a street,
TRAX325 only displays those characters that appear in possible
search results. The other characters are greyed out.
•
When entering the settlement name or the street name, tap the
button after a couple of letters; TRAX325 lists the
items that contain the character set.
•
•
•
You can speed up finding an intersection:
•
Search first for the street with a less common or less usual
name; fewer letters are enough to find it.
•
If one of the streets is shorter, search for that one first. You
can then find the second one faster.
You can search for both the type and the name of a road. If the
same word appears in several names, for example in the name
of streets, roads and avenues, you can obtain the result faster
if you enter the first letter of the street type: For example, enter
Pi A to obtain Pine Avenue and skip all Pine Streets and
Pickwick Roads.
You can also search in postal codes. This is useful when a
street name is common and it is used in several districts of a city.

Creating a multi-point route (inserting a via
point)
Multi-point routes are created from simple routes, so a route must
be active first. One of the ways of expanding the route is to keep the
destination, and to add via points (intermediate destinations).
This feature is available in Advanced mode only.
1. Select a new location as you did in the previous sections. This
will be the additional destination in the route.
2. The map appears with the selected point in the middle, and the
Cursor menu opens automatically.
3. Tap
to add the point as an intermediate
destination preceding the final destination of the route.
4. [optional] To add more points to the route, repeat the above
steps as many times as you like.
If you insert a via point in a route that is already a multi-point route, you will
automatically be taken to the Edit Route screen where you can determine
the position of the intermediate route point. When you enter the screen,
the new via point is placed as the last via point before the final destination.
The new point is the selected point in the list.
You have the following options:
Button
Action
The selected point moves up in the list (becomes a via point
to be reached earlier). Tap this button repeatedly, and the
point becomes the start point of the route.
The selected point moves down in the list (becomes a via
point to be reached later). Tap this button repeatedly, and
the point becomes the final destination of the route.
The route is reversed. The start point becomes the
destination, the destination becomes the start point, and
all via points are to be reached in the opposite order than
before.

The route is optimised. The start point and the destination
remain at their position, but the via points are reordered to
make the shortest possible route.
The selected point is removed from the route. The route
remains as it was before adding the new point.
Every time a new point is added, the route is recalculated automatically,
and you can start navigating right away.
Creating a multi-point route (appending a new

How Do I Use It?
In certain situations when route events are not important, these fields show
other useful pieces of information. They are described here: page 16.
Objects on the map
Streets and roads
TRAX325 shows the streets in a way that is similar to how the paper road
maps show them. Their width and colours correspond to their importance:
you can easily tell a motorway from a small street.
If you prefer not to see street names during navigation,
turn them off (page 102).

Symbol
Name
Description
Current GPS
position
Your current position displayed on the
map.
• In pedestrian mode it is the exact
GPS position.
• If a vehicle is selected for route
calculation, the arrow is put on the
nearest road.
Cursor (selected
map location)
The location selected in the Find
menu, or a map point selected by
tapping the map.
Start point
The first point of the route.
Normally, if GPS position is available, it
is the start point of the route. If there is
no valid GPS position, TRAX325 uses
the last known GPS position as the start
point.
When you are using a saved route,
TRAX325 asks you if you want to use
your GPS position or the first point in
the saved route as the start point.
You can also modify the start point
in the Cursor menu. If you do so, the
automatic off-route recalculation needs
to be turned off to keep the selected
point as the start point.
If the automatic off-route recalculation is
disabled for any
of the above, tapping the
icon
in the Turn Preview field not only
initiates a route recalculation from
the current GPS position, but it will
re-enable the automatic off-route
recalculation as well.

Via point
A via point is an intermediate
destination. You can place as many
via points as you want.
Destination (end
point)
The last point of the route, the final
destination.
Route colour
The route always stands out with its
colour on the map, both in daytime
and in night colour mode. The active
leg of the route is always displayed
in a brighter shade than the inactive
(upcoming) legs.
Active leg of the
route
The section of the route on which you
are driving.
If you have not added any via points
(only a destination), the entire route is
the active leg. If you have added via
points, the active leg is the part of the
route from your current location to the
next route point (the next via point, or
the destination if there are no more
via points to reach).
Inactive legs of the
route
The future sections of the route; each
of them becomes active when you
reach the via point at its beginning.
Streets and roads
that are excluded
You can choose whether you want
to use or avoid certain road types
from the navigation (page 104). However, when TRAX325
cannot avoid such roads, the route
will include them and it will show them
in a colour that is different from the
route colour.
Detour menu
This screen contains quick detour possibilities during navigation. It can be
opened directly from the Map screen by tapping

With the Cursor menu open, you can still move or scale

to a new location, but when you use this button, the
Cursor jumps back to the place where it was at the time
when you opened the Cursor menu.

Opens the full-screen Cursor menu with all the possible
options.
A new route is calculated with the Cursor as the
destination. The previous route is deleted.
If the Cursor is at or near the destination, this button
replaces the previous one, and deletes the current
destination from the route. The last via point is promoted
as destination, or if there are no via points, the route is
deleted.
The Cursor is added to the active route as an
intermediate route point, a point to be reached before
the destination. If there is already a via point in the route,
the Edit Route screen opens to let you decide where the
new via point is to appear in the route.
If the Cursor is at or near one of the via points,
this button replaces the previous one, and deletes
the selected via point from the route. The route is
recalculated without the deleted point.
The Cursor is appended at the end of the route as the
new destination. The previous destination is demoted,
and becomes the last via point.

This button is similar to the
button, but
a new screen opens, and the route is calculated with
all the possible route calculation methods (Fast, Short,
Economical and Easy). Observe the results, and choose
one of the routes to navigate.
The Cursor becomes the start point of the route. This
means that the route will not be started from the current
GPS position, and Automatic Off-route Recalculation
needs to be turned off to keep the start point the
selected one.
If the Cursor is at or near the selected start point, this
button replaces the previous one, and deletes the
start point from the route. The current GPS position is
used again as the start point, and Automatic Off-route
Recalculation is re-enabled.
The Cursor is saved as a user POI. Select the POI
group and give a name for the POI, then select a
suitable icon, enter a phone number, and additional
information if you like.
Map locations can be marked with Pins. Unlike POIs, a
Pin has no name and other details, only a colour to let
you tell one from another on the map.
If the Cursor is at or near a Pin, this button replaces the
previous one, and deletes the Pin the Cursor is near to.
The Cursor is saved as the location of a Road Safety
Camera (speed camera or red light camera). A new
screen appears where you can set the type of the
camera, the direction of the measured traffic, and the
speed limit checked (if applicable).
If the Cursor is at or near a Road Safety Camera, this
button replaces the previous one, and opens a new
screen where you can edit the details of the camera.
The location of the Cursor is added to the list of
frequently visited destinations, the so called Favourites.
You can give a name for the Favourite.

Button
Description
Vehicle
You can set the type of vehicle you will use to navigate
the route. Based upon this setting, some of the road
types will be excluded from the route (e.g. motorways
for pedestrians), or some of the restrictions may not
be taken into account (e.g. emergency vehicles have
only a few restrictions).
Road Types
To let the route fit your needs, you can also set which
Used for Route road types are to be considered for or to be excluded
Planning
from the route, if possible.
Excluding a route is a preference. It does not
necessarily mean total prohibition. If your destination
can only be accessed using some of the excluded
road types, they will be used, but only as much as
necessary. In this case a warning icon will be shown
on the Route Information screen, and the part of the
route not matching your preference will be displayed
in a different colour on the map.
Route
Calculation

Road Types Used for Route Planning:
Type
Description
Motorways
You might need to avoid motorways when you are driving
a slow car or you are towing another vehicle.
Unpaved
roads
TRAX325 excludes unpaved roads by default: unpaved
roads can be in a bad condition and usually you cannot
reach the speed limit on them.
Toll roads
By default TRAX325 includes toll roads (pay roads where
there is a per-use charge) in the routes. If you disable toll
roads, TRAX325 plans the best toll-free route.
Charge
roads
Charge roads are pay roads where you can purchase
a pass or vignette to use the road for a longer period of
time. They can be enabled or disabled separately from
toll roads.
Permit
needed
You might need a permit or permission from the owners
to use certain roads or to enter certain areas. TRAX325
excludes these roads from the route calculation by
default.
Ferries
TRAX325 includes ferries in a planned route by default.
However, a map does not necessarily contain information
about the accessibility of temporary ferries. You might
also need to pay a fare on ferries.
Cross-
border
planning
In some cases the route calculated according to your
other navigation and route preferences would lead
through another country. If you wish to always stay within
the same country, turn this option off.

Route Calculation Method types:
Type
Description
Fast
Gives the quickest possible route if you can travel at
or near the speed limit on all roads. Usually the best
selection for fast and normal cars.
Short
Gives a route that has the smallest total distance of
all possible routes between the route points. Usually
practical for pedestrians, cyclists or slow vehicles.
Economical
Easy
Combines the benefits of Fast and Short: TRAX325
calculates as if it were calculating the Fast route, but it
takes other roads to save petrol.
Results in a route with fewer turns. With this option, you
can make TRAX325 to take, for example, the motorway
instead of series of smaller roads or streets.
Regional settings
These settings allow you to adjust the application for your local language,
measurement units, time and date and their formats, as well as choose the
voice guidance profile you prefer. Tap the following buttons:

5: Glossary
2D/3D GPS reception
The GPS receiver uses satellite signals to calculate its (your) position and
need at least four signals to give a three-dimensional position, including
elevation. Because the satellites are moving and because objects can
block the signals, your GPS device might not receive four signals. If three
satellites are available, the receiver can calculate the horizontal GPS
position but the accuracy is lower and the GPS device does not give you
elevation data: only 2D reception is possible.
Active route
The currently navigated route. You can save and load routes in TRAX325,
but only one route can be active at any given time, and it is always active
until you delete it, reach your destination or you quit TRAX325. See also:
Route.
City Centre
The City Centre is not the geometric centre of the settlement but an
arbitrary point the map creators have chosen. In towns and villages, it is
usually the most important intersection; in larger cities, it is an important
intersection.
GPS accuracy
Several factors have impact on the deviation between your real position
and the one given by the GPS device. For example, signal delay in the
ionosphere or reflecting objects near the GPS device have a different
and varying impact on how accurately the GPS device can calculate your
position.
Map
TRAX325 works with digital maps which are not simply the computerised
versions of traditional paper maps. Similarly to the paper road maps, the
2D mode of digital maps show you streets, roads, and elevation is also
shown by colours. In 3D mode, you can see the altitude differences, for
example valleys, mountains and elevated roads.
You can use digital maps interactively: you can zoom in and out (increase
or decrease the scale), you can tilt them up and down, and turn them
left and right. In GPS-supported navigation, digital maps facilitate route
planning.
North-up map orientation
In North-up mode the map is rotated so its top always faces North. This
is the orientation in 2D map view mode and in Overview mode. See also:

How Do I Use It?
Track-up map orientation.
Overview mode
You can instruct TRAX325 to automatically switch to Overview mode if the
next route event is in a distance. In Overview mode the map is shown in
2D but scaled down to a predefined zoom level. When you approach the
next route event, the previous 2D or 3D map view returns automatically.
Route
A series of destinations to be reached one after the other. A simple route
contains one start point and only one destination. Multi-point routes
contain one or more via points (intermediate destinations). The last route
point is the final destination and the route is cut into different legs (from
one destination to the next).
Scheme
TRAX325 comes with different colour schemes for the map for daytime or
night use. Schemes are custom graphic settings for the map and they can
have different colours for streets, blocks or surface waters in 2D and 3D
modes, and they display shades or shadows in different ways in 3D mode.
One daytime scheme and one night scheme is always selected. TRAX325
uses them when it switches from day to night and back.
Track-up map orientation
In Track-up mode the map is rotated so its top always points in the currend
driving direction. This is the default orientation in 3D map view mode. See
also: North-up map orientation.
Road Safety Camera
A special POI type for speed cameras and red light cameras. Different
data sources are available, and you can also mark the position of a Road
Safety Camera on the map.
You can configure TRAX325 to warn you when you approach one of these
cameras.
