Getting started
To start using “ROUTE 66 Mobile 2005”, you have to carry out the following steps:
•
Step 1: Charge the battery of the Bluetooth GPS receiver
1.
Before you can use the Bluetooth GPS receiver, the battery has to be fully charged. In order
to do so, you have to connect the charger cable to the power jack of the GPS receiver and to
plug it into the cigarette lighter outlet of your car. While the battery is being charged, the
Battery Status LED will show a yellow light. Note that the Bluetooth GPS receiver standard
comes with a fully charged battery.
2.
As soon as the battery is fully charged, the Battery Status LED will turn off. Now you can
unplug the charger cable from the GPS receiver and from the cigarette lighter outlet of your
car.
•
Step 2: Switch on the Bluetooth GPS receiver and wait for a fixed GPS position
1.
After you have switched on the Bluetooth GPS receiver, the GPS Status LED will initially
show a steady green light to indicate that the GPS position has not been fixed yet.
2.
After the position has been fixed, the GPS Status LED will change into a flashing green light.
Now the Bluetooth GPS receiver is ready to be connected to your smart phone.
•
Step 3: Insert the MultiMediaCard into your smart phone and launch “ROUTE 66 Mobile 2005”
1.
In case your smart phone only supports Reduced Size MultiMediaCards (see the
documentation of your smart phone) you have to remove the adapter.
2.
Insert the MultiMediaCard into your smart phone. See the documentation of your smart phone
for how to insert the MultiMediaCard.
