Section 1        About GPS/NAV300 Introduction 
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a network of satellites launched by the 
U.S. military beginning in the 1970s. The satellites continuously transmit accurate 
time and position information, which is freely used by commercial and military 
applications worldwide. GPS receivers, such as Delphi NAV300, are designed to 
pick up the high-frequency radio signals from these satellites and use the 
information to help determine your exact location. Today, there are many 
applications that use GPS—from marine to automotive, aviation, and military. 
 
There are 24 satellites in total, orbiting approximately 12,000 miles above the 
Earth. While a GPS receiver can detect signals from up to 12 satellites at any 
one time, only three are needed to provide the two-dimensional position (latitude 
and longitude), or “fix,” that is required for vehicle and marine navigation 
systems. Aviation applications also need altitude, and therefore need information 
from at least four satellites. 
 
The Delphi NAV300 is designed specifically to use the continuous stream of GPS 
information to help find your current position and to calculate the best route to 
your desired destination using the road maps stored in its memory. With voice 
and visual commands, the Delphi NAV300 helps guide you to your destination. 
 
For best results when using Delphi NAV300: 
 
•  When the Delphi NAV300 is connected to power for the first time, leave it 
connected for about two hours to charge the battery. 
•  Plan your route before your journey. If you need to set up a new itinerary en 
route, safely park your vehicle before making any changes. 
•  GPS signals cannot pass through solid materials other than glass. So when 
you are inside a building or tunnel, GPS may not be available. Likewise, 
signal reception can be affected by overhead cover such as trees or 
metalized windshield glass. Wireless devices may also interfere with signals, 
causing variable reception. 
•  While the Delphi NAV300 can be operated by finger touch, more precise 
control can be achieved using the stylus pen.  Do not use other sharp objects, 
which can damage the LCD screen. 
•  Never clean the Delphi NAV300 with the power on. Use a soft, lint-free cloth 
moistened with water to wipe the screen and the exterior. Do not use paper 
towels to clean the screen. Do not place anything on top of the Delphi 
NAV300. Do not drop the Delphi NAV300 or subject it to severe shock. 
•  Keep the Delphi NAV300 away from excessive moisture and extreme 
temperatures. Do not subject the Delphi NAV300 to sudden and severe 
temperature changes that could cause condensation inside. In the event of 
moisture condensation, allow the Delphi NAV300 to dry out completely before 
use.
