INSTALLATION
• Memory cards are very fragile. Take care
not to dirty the contacts and not to force
the card.
Accessing Memory Cards
• The appliance only supports memory
cards in the FAT16/32 file format. If you
insert a card prepared with a different
format (e.g. in cameras, MP3 players),
your navigation system may not
recognize it and will ask you to format
it again.
Warning:
Formatting the memory card
irretrievably wipes out all data.
• Likewise you cannot just copy files onto
the memory card. In some cases they
must be converted by the Microsoft
ActiveSync program.
Data Exchange via Card Reader
You can transfer or synchronise data via
ActiveSync. This is also the correct
method, in particular, if files are to be
transferred that must be converted into a
navigation system-readable format.
However, if you wish to copy large
quantities of data (navigation maps) to
the memory card, these can also be stored
directly to the memory card.
Many computers already have memory
card devices. Insert the card in this and
copy the data directly to the card.
Because of the direct access significantly
faster transfer will be achieved.
Resetting the Navigation System
There are two options for resetting the
navigation system.
Soft Reset
This option restarts the navigation system,
without reinstallation being necessary. A
soft-reset is often used in order to
reorganize the memory. In doing so all
programs that are running are interrupted
and the working memory is reinitialized.
Choose this option if your navigation
system is not responding or working
properly.
Perform the soft-reset as follows: Screw
off the end cap of the pointer and carefully
press the point of the end cap into the
reset opening on the left side of your
device.
Hard Reset
Warning:
A hard-reset deletes all data on
your appliance and causes a new initial
installation.
It is not necessary to install the software
on your synchronization computer again,
however.
Perform the hard-reset as follows: Push
the
BATTERY ON/OFF
switch on the
bottom of the device to the
OFF
position
initially and back to
ON
after two seconds.
Safety Instructions for Navigation
The bundled product CD contains a
comprehensive instruction manual.
Tips for Navigation
• Do not manipulate the navigation system
while driving to protect yourself and
others from accidents!
• In the event that you do not understand
the voice instruction or if you are in any
doubt about what to do at the next
intersection, then the map or arrow
display will provide you with a quick
orientation. Only look at the display
when you are in a safe driving situation!
• Attention: The road layout and driving
rules take precedence over the
instructions of the navigation system.
Only follow the instructions when
circumstances and driving rules permit
it! The navigation system will guide you
to your destination even when you have
to deviate from your planned route.
• The direction statements of the
navigation system given do not release
the driver of the vehicle from his or her
duty of care or personal responsibility.
• Plan routes before you leave. If you want
to play a new route whilst on the road
stop driving.
• In order to receive the GPS signal
correctly, metal objects may not hinder
reception. Attach the navigation system
onto the inside of the windscreen or
near the windscreen with the sucker.
Try out different positions in your
vehicle in order to find the best reception.
