7 Troubleshooting guide
Thank you again for purchasing our product. We hope you will enjoy every minute
of using it. However you may face difculties before you get really accustomed to
Uniden Navigation. In such cases, please, refer to this table of frequently
encountered problematic situations.
I cannot nd the blue(yellow when using night colours)arrow that would show
my location. Navigation does not start.
Check the GPS status icon on the Main menu screen (Page 15), any of the map
screens (Page 33) or the GPS Data screen (Page 16). Either the connection to your
GPS receiver is broken, or the GPS cannot determine your position. Reconnect your
GPS, or move out of cover to get a position x.
The GPS is connected, sending valid position data, yet I cannot see the
blue(yellow when using night colours)arrow that would show my position.
You should see a large semi-transparent ‘Lock’ icon (Page 30) on the screen. Tap
this to re-enable the Lock-to-Position feature that moves the map back to your actual
location.
The blue(yellow when using night colours) arrow shows my location, but I
cannot see the route (green or red line), and no voice instructions are
announced.
It is likely that you have no active route. Check the upper left corner of the Cockpit
screen (Page 29) if you can see the indication for the next turn or not. If this eld is
blank, you have no route planned, so you need to create one rst. It is a common
mistake to nd a destination, show it on the map, but forget to tap the ‘Route To’
button in the Cursor menu (Page 34) to create the route. Be sure to follow these steps,
or always plan your routes with the ‘Find & GO’ button (Page 73) that will ensure your
route is calculated automatically as soon as the destination has been selected.
I cannot see the Lock button on the screen, yet the map is not rotated during
driving.
Look for a small, red ‘N’ letter on the compass icon (Page 32) or an aeroplane icon
instead of it. It is likely that you had initiated the North-up map orientation or the
Overview mode unintentionally. Tap this icon to revert to Track-up mode with
automatic map rotation. Sometimes the operating system disables the autorun
feature. The best you can do is to soft reset* your GNS8430/8435 . That should restore
autorun functionality. If you choose not to initiate a reset, please look for the Uniden
Navigation 2006 strip on the Today screen, or the Uniden Navigation icon in the Start/
Programs section of the operating system to run Uniden Navigation manually. You
will still be able to exit Uniden Navigation by removing the card.
