Preface: Introducing GPS
And, how this manual can get you out on the road, fast!
Welcome to the exciting world of turn-by-turn GPS navigation. Before
you grab the iWAY 600c™ GPS unit and begin installing it, please give
us a moment or two to explain how the manual can help you get the
best performance from your mapping GPS receiver and MP3 music
player. Our goal for this book is to get you on the road fast with a
minimum of fuss.
The manual has been designed so you don't have to read the whole
thing from front to back for the information you want. At the start (or
end) of each segment we will tell you what content is coming up next. If
it's a concept you are already familiar with we will show you how and
where to skip ahead for the next important topic. We have also made it
easy to look up any tips you may need from time to time. Here's how:
The manual is organized into five sections. This preface will introduce
you to GPS, your iWAY unit and the manual’s organization. The first
section will help you install the iWAY in your vehicle. We also will
show you how to use the USB cable to connect the iWAY to your PC.
We will finish by describing some of the available accessories.
Section 2 covers Mapping Mode Operation. It will show you how easy it
is to run the iWAY right out of the box. This section features a one-
page GPS Practice Run. If you have already jumped ahead and figured
out how to install the unit yourself turn to the Map Mode Practice Run
and head for the road with your GPS unit.
In Section 3 we leave Mapping mode and introduce you to Music Mode
Operation. The manual will explain everything you need to know about
getting music into your iWAY, arranging the files on the unit and cre-
ating and using play lists. If you are in a hurry to get some music play-
ing skip to the Music Practice Run.
Section 4 describes the Main Menu, the commands used to configure
settings such as screen brightness, sound levels and units of measure.
We will also show you how to use features like the Trip Calculator.
Finally, in Section 5, the manual will go into detail on how to search for
and navigate to points of interest, addresses and contacts you have cre-
ated. We will also offer tips on how to understand and follow the auto-
matic turn-by-turn routes you have created. Before we go any further
we would like to take just a moment to explain how the iWAY works.
