  • Release Notes
    • The range of K Block 3 is modified from 24.121~ 24.124 to 24.123~24.124.

    • Low speed (5Km/h) filter for POI (Redlight, Speed cam) alerts is added.

      • Delete the existing Auto Mute On/Off from the menu.
      • Add Off to the Auto Mute Level (Auto Mute Level : 1~8, Off)
      • Off is the same as the behavior of the existing Auto Mute Off, and the Auto mute function does not work when setting it to off.   When setting it to Off, the Auto Mute Level function is not turned off, but the Auto Mute function is turned off.
      • If setting it to 1~7 level, the alert is auto muted only when the alert level is below the set Auto Mute level, and if an alert level exceeds the set Auto Mute level, it will not be auto muted.
      • If setting it to 8 level, Auto mute is applied to all levels, so it works the same as the existing Auto Mute On. (Auto Mute Level : 8 = Auto Mute On)
    • GPS Error1 is fixed.

      • K block filters can also be adjusted specifically (K block filter 1, 2, 3 all default = weak), user block filters are not affected by factory reset, but K block filters are to be set to their default values after a factory reset.
