GETTING STARTED

At start-up, the unit displays a welcome message and warn-
ing. The warning message reminds the user that the instruc-
tions provided by the car navigator should be considered as
suggestions, and not as real indications, which could not take,
for example, changes to road practicability into account.

Press the 

PAGE 

key to display the start-up screen, then use the

PAGE 

key to scroll the windows available (navigation, trip, sat-

ellite and route info), if enabled from the Setup menu.
