Operating Instructions

The Shkalacar Car GPS Speedometer is designed for straightforward operation:

• Power On/Off: The device automatically powers on when it receives power and powers off when the power supply is disconnected.
• Speed Display: Once GPS signals are acquired, your current speed will be displayed prominently on the LED screen. The display updates in real-time for accurate readings.
• Unit Switching (KM/H & MPH): The device supports switching between Kilometers Per Hour (KM/H) and Miles Per Hour (MPH). Refer to the physical button on the device (usually a 'Mode' or 'M' button) and press it briefly to toggle between these units.
• Display Clarity: The device features an anti-glare sunshade and optimized screen brightness to ensure clear visibility during both day and night driving conditions, without distracting reflections.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your GPS Speedometer, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry, or slightly damp cloth to clean the device's exterior. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the display or casing.
• Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the device in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Cable Care: Handle the USB cable gently. Avoid bending or crimping it excessively, which can damage the internal wires.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your Shkalacar Car GPS Speedometer, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Device Not Powering On:
  • Check that the Type-C USB cable is securely connected to both the device and the power source.
  • Verify that the vehicle's USB port or 12-24V power outlet is functional. Try connecting another device to confirm power availability.
• No Speed Reading / No GPS Signal:
  • Ensure the device has a clear, unobstructed view of the sky. Heavy overhead cover (e.g., tunnels, dense urban areas, parking garages) can block satellite signals.
  • Allow sufficient time (1-3 minutes) for the device to acquire satellite signals after powering on.
  • If indoors, move the vehicle to an open outdoor area.
• Inaccurate Speed Reading:
  • Confirm that the correct speed unit (KM/H or MPH) is selected on the device.
  • Compare the displayed speed with another reliable speed source (e.g., your vehicle's built-in speedometer, another GPS device) to assess accuracy. Minor discrepancies may occur due to GPS signal variations.
