PLEASE READ BEFORE USING GO!EXPLORE
Please ensure that your PSP system has the correct date and time and time zone settings and system software version 3.90 or higher. For further information on changing date and time settings or updating system software, please refer to the PSP system Instruction Manual. Your PSP system must be outdoors and stationary to locate your rst position. Before using Go!Explore for the rst time, the GPS receiver will need to register its position. This can usually take between 5 and 15 minutes. Make sure that you are stationary and in an open space where your view of the sky is not obscured by tall buildings or trees. The GPS receiver requires an unobstructed view of the sky and must face towards the sky to receive the signal. When used in a car it must be positioned at an angle that points away from the PSP system, with a clear view of the sky. Sometimes the GPS signal may be lost if travelling between tall buildings or through a tunnel.

USEFUL TIPS

When not using Go!Explore for a short period of time, leave the software running and put your PSP system into Sleep Mode. This will make it quicker to gain a GPS signal when usage is resumed. To avoid interference with the GPS signal, always slide your PSP systems WLAN switch to the OFF position. During initial set up, copy your map data to Memory Stick Duo. This will speed up loading times. If you want to check your GPS reception status and quality, an overview can be found by selecting GPS from the Settings Menu.

Limited Warranty Where a 1-year warranty is supplied with your PSP system, such warranty also applies to this product. For details please see the manual that came with your PSP system or call the PSP customer service helpline which can be found within every PSP format software manual. Please also refer to the Terms Of Use at the end of this manual. GPS GPS (Global Positioning System) is a system that uses high-precision U.S. navigation satellites to enable you to identify your location wherever you are on Earth. There are a total of around 30 GPS satellites positioned in six orbits at an altitude of approximately 20,000 kilometres (approx. 12,400 miles). Wherever you are on Earth, there are generally at least three satellites that can identify your location. Positioning The GPS receiver receives radio waves from the GPS satellites. The process of calculating a location from satellite orbit information and radio wave transmission time data is known as positioning. Positioning requires that the receiver receives signals from three to four GPS satellites. When using the GPS receiver for the rst time on a given day The initial positioning can usually take between 5-15 minutes as the GPS receiver is located. If it takes longer, ensure that you are in an open place where your view of the sky is not obscured by tall buildings or trees. Also, when using the GPS receiver again after several hours have passed, the locations of the GPS satellites will have changed, so positioning will again take several minutes. Issues with receiving GPS signals In locations such as those listed below, the radio waves may not be received and there may be a difference between the actual location and the positioning results. When positioning is difcult, try moving to a location in the open air away from sheltering objects. The following objects/locations may obstruct positioning: Buildings Inside a tunnel Indoors or in the shadow of a building Between high-rise buildings In narrow streets between buildings Underground Among dense trees Under a bridge Near high-voltage electric wires or magnetic objects Near mobile phones operating in the 1.5 GHz range or objects emitting radio waves of the same frequency Behind heat-reecting glass It is also very important that the PSP systems time, date and time zone settings are set correctly. NOTE: depending on the locations of the satellites, positioning may take time or may not be possible. Errors GPS satellite errors Errors made by the GPS satellites are approximately 10 metres (33 feet), but depending on the surroundings, errors of several hundred metres may occur. In some cases, positioning is possible with only three satellites, but accuracy may be reduced. Errors in receiving Depending on the location and time, inaccuracies in the GPS positioning information may occur. In such cases, an accurate position may not be displayed even with correct operation. This is not a malfunction. Basic operations Operating methods vary depending on the software in use. For details, refer to the instructions supplied with the software.

Hints The angle of the receiver can be changed (Figure B). To improve the conditions for receiving radio waves from the GPS satellites, adjust the angle of the receiver so that it faces the sky (Figure C).
2 WARNINGS AND SAFETY INFORMATION
Go!Explore is a navigation system that helps you nd your way to a destination using a connected GPS receiver. Go!Explore does not transmit your GPS position; others cannot track you. It is important that you look at your PSP systems screen only when it is safe to do so. Drivers must operate Go!Explore before commencing a journey; the PSP system should never be operated by a driver whilst the vehicle is in motion. Plan the route before your departure and stop if you need to change something during the journey. Go!Explore features a Safety Mode if you turn Safety Mode on, you cannot adjust settings whilst the vehicle is moving at a speed of 10 km/h (6 mph) or higher. Unless Go!Explore is being operated by a passenger, using Safety Mode is strongly encouraged. You must obey all trafc signs and follow the rules of the road. If you deviate from the route that Go!Explore recommends, a new route will be calculated and instructions amended accordingly. Never place the PSP system where it obstructs the drivers view, where it is in the deployment zone of an airbag or where it might cause injuries in an accident.

3 GETTING STARTED

Go!Explore is optimised for in-car use but can also be used by pedestrians and cyclists. Go!Explore can plan routes throughout the whole installed map set; if you have the relevant maps on your PSP system, you do not need to change maps to navigate between map segments or countries. When Go!Explore is started for the rst time, you need to: 1. Select the on-screen language to be used. This can be readjusted later via the Settings Menu. 2. Select the language and speaker used for voice guidance messages. Again, you can change this later via the Settings Menu if necessary. 3. Select whether to allow Go!Explore to automatically save program settings on the inserted Memory Stick Duo. This can be change later by choosing My Data from the Main Menu, then Saved Data.
After setting these options, the Main Menu will be displayed and you can start using Go!Explore. The simplest way of using Go!Explore is to choose Find & Go, pick a destination and start navigating towards it. You can select your destination in the following ways:
Use the selected location on the map (the cursor) see section 4.1.1 of this manual for more information. Enter a full address or part of an address, for example a street name without a house number or the names of two intersecting streets see section 4.1.2 of this manual. Find an address with a post code. Use a previously saved location, either a Favourite, a Place, or a destination from the History of previously set destinations and waypoints see sections 4.1.3 to 4.1.6 of this manual. Use coordinates see section 4.1.7 of this manual.

3.1 USING THE PSP SYSTEM

When your PSP system is switched off, Go!Explore does not calculate your GPS position and it does not update the route or driving instructions. When the PSP system is turned on again, Go!Explore continues navigating as soon as the GPS receiver has determined your position.

5.3.2.3 ELEMENTS OF AN ACTIVE ROUTE
ELEMENT Current GPS position Cursor (selected map location) DETAILS 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. The location selected in the Find Menu, or a map point selected from the map.

Start point

The rst point of the route. Normally, if a GPS position is available, it is the start point of the route. If there is no valid GPS position, Go!Explore uses the last known GPS position as the start point. When you are using a saved route, Go!Explore asks you if you want to use your GPS position or the rst point in the saved route as the start point. You can also modify the start point using the Action 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, selecting the icon in the Turn Preview eld not only initiates a route recalculation from the current GPS position, but will re-enable the automatic off-route recalculation as well. Waypoint A waypoint is an intermediate destination. You can place as many of these as you want. Destination (end point) The last point of the route, the nal destination. Route colour The route stands out in colour on the map, both in daytime and in night 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 waypoints (only a destination), the entire route is the active leg. If you have added waypoints, the active leg is the part of the route from your current location to the next route point (the next waypoint, or the destination if there are no more waypoints to reach). Inactive legs of the route The future sections of the route. Each of them becomes active when you reach the waypoint at its beginning. Streets and roads that are excluded You can choose whether you want to use or avoid certain road types. However, from the navigation when Go!Explore cannot avoid such roads, the route will include them and it will show them in a colour that is different from the usual route colour.
