6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your HINYFVOZ GPS Navigator, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Device does not power on. | No power connection; discharged battery; faulty charger. | Ensure car charger is securely plugged into both the device and the vehicle's 12V outlet. Check if the vehicle's 12V outlet is functional. Charge the device for at least 30 minutes. |
| No GPS signal or signal loss. | Obstructed view of sky; initial satellite acquisition; device malfunction. | Ensure the device has a clear view of the sky (not under a bridge, in a tunnel, or heavily wooded area). Allow several minutes for initial satellite acquisition, especially after first use or long periods of inactivity. Move to an open area. |

If a screen protector is installed, ensure it is properly applied and not interfering. Close any unnecessary background applications if applicable. |
