1. Welcome
TeleNav™ 5.5 utilizes the integration of GPS position determination technology, the Java™ programming
environment, and access to your wireless carrier’s data network. Supported Research in Motion BlackBerry devices
provide both the Java environment and access to the wireless network. The TeleNav application provides:
GPS navigation that punctually guides you turn-by-turn to any destination address in the Continental
U.S and Canada. If you miss a turn or get off-track, TeleNav will calculate a new route for you. You
can enter one or more destination addresses by keying or speaking directly into the device, entering
them on the TeleNav website, or by pulling your contacts from the BlackBerry Address Book.
Optionally, you can input a remote origin and receive Driving Directions from that origin address to the
selected destination address.
Audio and visual traffic alerts while driving or viewing maps, as well as traffic rerouting capabilities to
minimize delays on your trip.
The ability to set up alerts for your daily commute and view any traffic incidents on the map of the
route.
A Search feature that allows you to find businesses or points of interest near your current location,
around a Favorite, around an entered address, or around an airport. You can call the business first to
check availability of an item or get a reservation and then navigate to it. You can also save the address
for use later in the day.
Maps of the area around your current location, a marked Favorite, or an address you enter manually
or have previously entered. You can pan the map (adjust left/right/up/down), and zoom in or out. You
can also mark a point under the cursor as a Favorite.
The ability to mark the current location as a Favorite that can be labeled.
The ability to personalize the application by selecting the use of U.S. customary or metric distance
units, the language for audible guidance, the volume and map colors, etc.
TeleNav’s servers support these enhanced services via the carrier’s data network.

Please read this section carefully before using TeleNav GPS Navigator
TeleNav will not accept any responsibility whatsoever for accidents resulting from failure to observe common sense
precautions. Your personal judgment, traffic regulations, and common sense must always take precedence over
any driving direction produced by TeleNav.
WARNING: Keep your eyes on the road.
It is your responsibility as the vehicle operator to keep your eyes on the road and be an alert driver at all times,
ESPECIALLY when the vehicle is moving. The vehicle operator should not be distracted by the application
displays, audible cues, or manually interacting with the controls. When you need to enter data on your device using
the keypad or study the display, please do so while the vehicle is parked, not while in motion. Should your ability to
drive responsibly be decreased, please turn off the device.
