Important safety information
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING PRODUCT IN VEHICLE
This is the safety alert symbol. It is used to alert you to potential personal injury hazards. Obey all
safety messages that follow this symbol to avoid possible injury or death.
WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death
or serious injury.
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or
moderate injury.
CAUTION used without the safety alert symbol indicates a potentially hazardous situation which,
if not avoided, may result in property damage.
Removing original equipment, adding accessories or modifying your vehicle could affect the vehicle’s safety or
make it illegal to operate in some jurisdictions.
Follow all product instructions and all instructions in your vehicle owner’s manual regarding accessories or
modifications.
Consult your country’s and/or state’s laws regarding operation of a vehicle with any accessories or
modifications.
It is your sole responsibility to place, secure and use your Mio in a manner that will not cause accidents,
personal injury or property damage. Always observe safe driving practices.
Do not mount your Mio in a way that may interfere with the safe operation of the vehicle, the deployment of
air bags or other safety equipment.
Do not operate your Mio while driving.
Before you use your Mio for the first time, familiarize yourself with your device and its operation.
On main roads, the distance to an exit calculated by the Mio may be further than the distance shown on road
signs. Road signs show the distance to the start of an exit while the Mio shows the distance to the next
intersection, i.e., the end of the exit ramp or road. To prepare to exit a road, always follow distance information
on road signs.
The use of information regarding safety or speed camera locations may be subject to local laws in the country
of use. You are responsible for checking that you can legally use the information in your country or in the
country where the information will be used.
Do not handle the Mio while it is hot. Let the product cool, out of direct sunlight.

Home Charger-specific safety information
To charge your Mio from the mains power, use the home charger supplied by Mio as an accessory (may be sold
separately). Using other home chargers with your Mio could result in serious injury or property damage.
Never use the charger if the plug or cord is damaged.
Do not expose the charger to moisture or water. Do not use the charger in a high moisture environment.
Exposure to water may cause electrical sparks or fires.
Never touch the charger when your hands or feet are wet.
Allow adequate ventilation around the charger when using it to operate your Mio or charge the Mio internal
battery. Do not cover the charger with paper or other objects that will reduce ventilation. Do not use the
charger while it is inside a carrying case or other container.
Ensure that the charger is connected to a power source with the correct fitting and voltage requirements. The
voltage requirements can be found on the home charger casing and/or packaging.
Do not attempt to service the charger as this could result in personal injury. Replace the charger if it is damaged
or exposed to excess moisture.
Internal battery-specific safety information
The Mio contains a non-replaceable internal lithium-ion polymer battery. The battery may burst or explode if
mishandled, releasing hazardous chemicals. To reduce the risk of fire or burns, do not disassemble, crush or
puncture the battery.
Recycle or dispose of the battery safely and properly according to local laws and regulations. Do not dispose of
the battery in fire or water.
Only use the correct home charger (sold separately) or in-car charger supplied by Mio to charge the Mio
internal battery. Only use the Mio internal battery with the Mio unit.
The Mio battery will stop charging when the ambient temperature is less than 0ºC (32ºF) or more than 40ºC
(104ºF).
Failure to adhere to these warnings and cautions may lead to death, serious injury or property damage. Mio
disclaims all liability for installation or use of the Mio that causes or contributes to death, injury or
property damage or that violates any law.

Caring for your Mio
Taking good care of your Mio will ensure trouble-free operation and reduce the risk of damage to your Mio.
Keep your Mio away from excessive moisture and extreme temperatures.
Avoid exposing your Mio to direct sunlight or strong ultraviolet light for extended periods of time.
Do not place anything on top of your Mio or drop objects on your Mio.
Do not drop your Mio or subject it to severe shock.
Do not subject your Mio to sudden and severe temperature changes. This could cause moisture
condensation inside the unit, which could damage your Mio. In the event of moisture condensation, allow
the Mio to dry out completely before use.
The screen surface can easily be scratched. Avoid touching it with sharp objects. Non-adhesive generic
screen protectors designed specifically for use on portable devices with LCD panels may be used to help
protect the screen from minor scratches.
Never clean your Mio with it powered on. Use a soft, lint-free cloth to wipe the screen and the exterior of
your Mio.
Do not use paper towels to clean the screen.
Never attempt to disassemble, repair or make any modifications to your Mio. Disassembly, modification
or any attempt at repair could cause damage to your Mio and even bodily injury or property damage and
will void any warranty.
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or explosive materials in the same compartment as your
Mio, its parts or accessories.

How do I navigate with GPS?
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is available at any time, free of charge, and is accurate to within 5m (15ft).
GPS navigation is made possible by a network of satellites that orbit the Earth at around 20,200km (12,552mi).
Each satellite transmits a range of signals which are utilised by GPS receivers, such as your Mio, to determine an
exact location. Although a GPS receiver can detect signals from up to 12 satellites at any time, only four signals
are required to provide a position or “GPS fix” (latitude and longitude), for vehicle navigation systems.
How does my Mio receive GPS signals?
Your Mio receives GPS signals via the internal GPS antenna. To guarantee the optimum GPS signal strength,
ensure your Mio is outdoors, or in a vehicle outdoors, and has an unobstructed view of the sky. GPS reception is
not usually affected by weather, however, very heavy rain or snow may have a negative effect on your
reception.
How do I view my GPS status?
You can view your GPS status at any time from the map screens or the Viewfinder screen. displays green
when a GPS fix is established and red when a GPS fix is unavailable. To indicate the reception strength of a GPS
fix,
displays between one and four green vertical bars.
To view your GPS status in more detail, see “GPS Status” on page 82.
To set your GPS mode, see “Setting your GPS mode” on page 83.
For more information about GPS, refer to the GPS Navigation - Frequently Asked Questions guide on the
MioMore Desktop DVD.
21
How do I go from A to B?
Your Mio is equipped with maps that provide street-level detail for door-to-door navigation, including Points of
Interest (POIs) such as accommodation, parking areas, petrol stations, railway stations and airports.
When you ... Then ...
know the address of your destination use the address-entry wizard to enter the address “How do I search for an
address?” on page 23.
want to make multiple stops use the Multi-stop Trip Planner screen to enter multiple waypoints “How do I
create a trip with multiple stops?” on page 27.
need to find a named site, feature,
landmark or public venue

How do I receive current traffic information? (Select models
only)
Note: Traffic information is only available on selected model and in selected countries.
Your Mio can receive current traffic information for all main roads and motorways, enabling you to avoid
potential delays on your route. Event messages and traffic icons will display as they occur. If an event message

How does my Mio receive traffic information?
You can receive current traffic information on your Mio via an optional traffic accessory. The TMC service is
subscription-free.
Note: To receive traffic information, you must connect your Mio to the in-car charger.
The Traffic Message Channel (TMC) broadcasts real-time traffic and weather information via the FM Radio Data
System (RDS). FM radio stations transmit TMC data on a cycle of several minutes, with hundreds of events able
to be broadcast to TMC receivers, such as the Mio Traffic module.

given if an event is on your route. Where the extent of an event is a specific distance, the road will be
highlighted and arrows will indicate the direction affected.
