NOTE:

If possible, an RA3 radio (also known as the radio module) with GPS navigation activated or any RA4 radio should have the version of the map and Point Of Interest (POI) data retrieved and noted before the original radio is replaced with a new unit. If the version of the map and POI data found on the new radio is not equal to or newer than the version that is found on the original radio, updated map and POI data will need to be downloaded and installed to the new radio at the expense of the dealer. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
