RacerX has written a manual in layman' s terms, sometimes when techs write manuals they have a problem explaining features in a simple matter, let me know if anything needs to be changed before we add this to our website.
Personally found our original manual easy to follow however please let us know what should be changed if there is something confusing.
NavAlert
This is a quick reference to the features of your new NavAlert. It may be printed for ease of use.
Please refer to the included manual for additional details, such as updating, etc.
Page 3 may be printed as a Quick reference to keep in your vehicle.
Mode Selection:
After plugging in power to the NavAlert, move the switch on the side of the unit to CAM or SAFE mode. D/L is the “Download Position” used for downloading a new NavAlert database to the unit via the USB cable from our website.
SAFE is the safe driving mode and provides information about stored fixed cameras, possible mobile cameras, high collision areas and school zones. (During school hours only). As this will be an ever-evolving database, some collision and school zones may not be available for your area. Please visit the NavAlert website if you have found some you would like included for future use.
CAM is the camera detection mode and provides information on fixed camera positions only.
Volume: The volume of the voice warning and warning tones is adjusted by the volume control.

Button use in moving vehicle:
Adding / deleting a user position:
Users may wish to make a record of a position as they are driving.
If the MENU button is pressed briefly while the vehicle is in motion, the NavAlert will store the current position and make the announcement “user position logged”. In the future, when the vehicle travels in the SAME DIRECTION and location as when the position was stored, the driver is advised of the approaching location.
A user position may be deleted from the NavAlert memory simply by pressing MENU button within 5 seconds of ‘user position’ being made, or when NavAlert makes a warning that a previously entered user position is approaching. This feature is an excellent method of alerting the driver to any custom location the driver feels they need to be alerted.
Examples:
• Locations of frequented locations of mobile radar vehicles
• Locations of new fixed cameras not in latest database
• Make sure to report these locations to www.NavAlert.com
Pressing and holding for 2 seconds will allow you to cycle between a speedometer, a compass or an altimeter.
After 2 seconds a chime tone will sound, letting you know you are in this mode.
An additional quick push of the button will go to the next screen. Each single push continues to the next screen.
The screens (modes) are as followed:
• Heading Mode: Display the direction (Heading) of vehicle
• Altitude Mode: Display the driving altitude (This will always be in meters)
• Speed Mode: Display the real speed of vehicle (Either MPH or KMPH) NOTE: MPH display is for United States and KMPH is for Canada.
