How Do I Put It in My Car?  
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.  
Some states have rules about what kind of devices you  
can affix to your car’s windshield and where exactly you  
can put them. If you’re not sure if there are any applicable  
laws in your state, contact the state agency that issues  
drivers’ licences.  
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  
140º F (60º C).

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.

Make sure the spot is smooth and flat (suction cups won’t  
stick well on a curved or textured surface).

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.

How Do I Put It in My Car?  
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.

How Do I Use It?  
Most of the functions of the GPS navigation device can be  
summarized in two steps:  
1) Enter a destination.  
2) Decide what you want to do with it (see the map, plot  
a route to it, save it as a favorite, save it as your home  
location, etc.).  
Everything starts with your destination. Once you know  
where you want to go, you have a whole range of options on  
how to get there.  
Entering a new destination  
From the main Menu screen, tap the destination button.  
This opens the Destination screen.  
There are three basic ways to enter a new destination:  
Enter a complete address  
as your destination  
Enter the intersection of two  
streets as your destination

highlighted lines, the device clears that selection and will  
no longer avoid that road.  
When you have selected all the roads you want to avoid,  
tap the recalculate button at the bottom of the screen.  
The device re-plots the route without using the roads you  
selected.  
Until you tap the recalculate button, the device

Menu screen and enter the next destination. (When  
you leave the Waypoint screen, the device saves your  
waypoints until you delete the route.)  
8) When you are finished adding waypoints, tap the  
recalculate button.  
The device re-plots the route, starting from your current  
location and going to the waypoint. Then it plots the route  
from the waypoint to the final destination.

order you will drive  
to them. The  
device plots a  
route from your  
current location to  
the first waypoint

route from that  
waypoint to the  
next one on the  
list, and so on.  
Use the up and down arrows to select a specific  
waypoint.  
Tap the delete button to delete the selected waypoint.

Use the move up button to move the selected waypoint  
before the one above it. For example, if you want to go to  
Waypoint C before Waypoint A, use the move up button  
to move Waypoint C to the top of the list, above Waypoint  
A.  
Use the move down button to move the selected  
waypoint after the one below it. For example, if you want  
to go to Waypoint A after Waypoint B, use the move down  
button to move Waypoint A to the bottom of the list, after  
Waypoint B.  
When you’re finished editing the waypoints, tap the  
recalculate button.  
The device re-plots the route, starting from your current  
location and going to the first waypoint on the list. Then it  
plots the route from there to the next waypoint on the list,  
and so on through the list of waypoints. Finally, it plots the  
route from the last waypoint to the final destination.  
Until you tap the recalculate button, the device  
will use the route as originally plotted, without the  
edited waypoints.

I Have a Question  
How long should the battery last?  
With normal use, the battery charge should last about 2  
hours. To help increase the battery life:  
Store the device at room temperature. Never store the  
device in temperatures below -4°F (-20°C) or above  
+140°F (+60°C).  
Don’t store the device in any area where it might get wet  
or where high humidity can condense into water.  
Don’t leave the device in direct sunlight for long periods  
of time.  
To avoid risk of fire or damage, only use power adapters  
made for this device (see www.uniden.com for  
accessory adapters).  
How do I update or add maps?  
Updated maps and additional maps are available for  
additional cost through www.uniden.com. Instructions on  
how to update the maps or add new maps are available at  
the website.  
What if I need to update the software?  
You can download any necessary software updates other

Why can’t I get a GPS signal lock?  
The most common cause of signal lock issues is external  
radio interference or signal blockage: if your cell phone or  
AM/FM radio are having trouble with reception, your GPS  
device might have trouble getting a clear signal also. Some  
common things that can interfere with or block satellite  
signals are  
Radio broadcast towers or signal repeaters  
Localized radio signals (like at an airport)  
High frequency power lines  
Tunnels, large bridges or overpasses, parking garages,  
etc.  
Tall buildings or canyon walls  
Dense overhead tree cover  
Another common cause is window tinting. No, really. Some  
window tints have such a high metallic content that they can  
interfere with radio signals and increase the amount of time  
it takes for the device to get an initial lock. If your windows  
are tinted, try stepping outside the car or holding your device  
near an open window.

I Have a Question  
Some helpful things to know about the GPS Status screen:  
There are a total of 27 GPS satellites in orbit, arranged  
so that at least 4 satellites can be seen from every point  
on the planet at all times. These satellites broadcast radio  
signals that allow GPS devices to find them. Atmospheric  
conditions and radiation can affect the signal strength on  
the satellite’s end just as the local environment can affect  
the signal strength on the recevier’s end.  
Satellites in view are above the horizon and have the  
potential to be tracked. When the device receives a valid,  
continuing signal from a satellite, it marks that satellite as  
tracked. When the device synchronizes with the satellite  
and locks onto its position in the sky, it marks that  
satellite as active.  
The device must lock onto at least three satellites to  
estimate your latitude and longitude. If it locks onto four  
satellites, it can also calculate your altitude. Generally,  
the device must lock onto four satellite signals to  
calculate your position accurately.  
The GPS Status screen also shows the accuracy of  
your position. An accuracy of 10 feet means that the  
calculated position is within a 10 foot radius of your actual  
position.  
Once the device locks onto the satellites, it can usually  
maintain the lock even if the signal strength goes down.  
Also, if the device locked onto the satellite signals within  
the past 30 minutes or so, it can often get a new lock very  
quickly.

I Have a Question  
How can I keep the device still?  
If the whole mount shifts out of position, the suction cup  
probably isn’t getting a good grip on the windshield. Try  
removing the mount from the windshield and re-installing  
it. See page 19 for hints on getting the suction cup to stick  
better.  
If the device shifts out of position even though the suction  
cup itself stays in place, try tightening the bracket joint.

2) Lift the adjustment lock, and twist the lock handle

3) Flip the adjustment lock back down and see if the bracket  
still moves. If it does, repeat step 2.  
4) If the adjustment lock won’t go back down, the bracket  
joint is too tight. Twist the adjustment lock one or two  
turns counter-clockwise and try to flip it down again.

Why is it that...?  
The Poi iconS diSAPPeAR fRom The mAP?  
The device does not display POI icons when the map scale  
greater than 1000 feet. If you can’t see the POI icons on the  
map, try zooming in to 1000 feet or closer. If you still can’t  
see the POI icons you want, go the Map Settings screen  
and make sure those icons are set to display on the map  
(see page 51).  
If Auto Zoom is turned on, the map might zoom out  
past 1000 feet and hide the POI icons automatically.  
The ScReen iS BluRRy And hARd To ReAd  
Dirt and oils from your fingers can stay on the touchscreen.  
Periodically clean the touch screen with a lint free cloth  
dampened with water only. If the screen remains dirty,  
try a mild soap solution or a cleaning spray designed for  
electronics.  
Do not use ammonia on the screen, and never  
immerse the device in water.
