1 Warnings and Safety information IGO 8 is a navigation system that helps you find your way to your destination with a connected GPS receiver. IGO 8 does not transmit your GPS position; others cannot track you. It is important that you look at the display only when it is safe to do so. If you are the driver of the vehicle, we recommend that you operate IGO 8 before you start your journey. Plan the route before your departure and stop if you need to change something in the route.
