Positive connection Fig. 2

The navigation unit must be connected to permanent plus 12 V and

positive via the ignition.

Lay the permanent plus 12 V wire (red) to the battery (do not lay the wiring

directly by the wire harnesses). Attach the fuse carrier to protect the

positive wire and connect it to the positive terminal on the battery (if

necessary, drill a hole through the splashboard and use wire bushings

accordingly).

Connect the switching plus wire (black) with the fuse carrier at terminal

15 (switched to plus via the ignition) behind the fuse. In cars in which it

is not possible to connect the wire in the fuse box, use the enclosed fuse

carrier to connect the wire directly to terminal 15 at the ignition. Remove

the steering wheel panelling first.

Negative connection Fig. 2

Screw the negative wire (brown) directly onto the chassis. Scratch the

contact point for the ground down to the bare metal and grease it with

antiseize graphite petroleum (important for good grounding).

Magnetic field sensor (electronic compass)

Note: You must determine the optimum mounting location for

the magnetic field sensor in each vehicle individually. Before

permanently installing the magnetic field sensor, attach it

temporarily and then test the chosen location with the installation

and calibration CD-ROM to make sure everything operates

correctly.

The magnetic field sensor must be installed in the passenger room. It

determines the driving direction by measuring the horizontal earth

magnetic field component. Since the earth magnet field is relatively

small, you must ensure that there is no magnetic or electromagnetic

interference affecting the magnet field sensor at the chosen mounting

location.

Use the enclosed mounts to attach the magnet field sensor to a window

which cannot be opened or, especially where estate wagons or liftback

cars are concerned, mount it without fasteners underneath the inside roof

lining using double-sided sticky tape.

Note: If the magnetic field sensor is mounted in the direct vicinity

of an AM radio antenna integrated into the rear window, it may

cause occasional interference in the radio reception in the long

wave range.

Testing the mounting location of the magnetic field

sensor

Two different tests are required.

1. Test for permanent magnetic interference

Load the installation disk.

Select „find compass location“, and then „compass ellipse“ and drive the

vehicle in a circle. A circle should appear on the display inside the

squares (ideally the circle should be in the centre). If this circle is partially

or entirely outside of the squares, then you must mount the magnetic field

sensor in a different place.

Safety instructions

Installation and connection regulations

While installing and mounting this equipment, you must

disconnect the negative terminal of the battery. Important:

You must also comply with all safety instructions given by the

auto manufacturer (alarm system, vehicle immobilizer, airbag)!

Before drilling holes for mounting the equipment or laying the

wiring, make sure that no existing wiring or auto parts (such as the

petrol tank, fuel line) will be damaged.

Use wire bushings on sharp-edged holes.

In order to avoid any interference, lay all wiring far enough away

from the wire harnesses.

Equipment fuses:

Basic unit: 5 A wire fuse

5 A miniature fuse

GPS receiver: 5 A wire fuse

Notes on the operation of the system

In order to ensure the trouble-free operation of the navigation system, a

calibration must be performed after the equipment has been installed. A

special installation and calibration CD-ROM, including operating

instructions, is required. Software available for the Berlin RCM 303 A

operating panel from version 04.11.94 is capable of controlling the

navigation componentry. Older software must be replaced by the most

recent update, whereby an update for the tuner software is also required

(at least version 08.09.94).

Note: An error message list, a service checklist and diagnostic aids have

been included at the end of these installation instructions.

Componentry Fig. 1

The navigation componentry consists of a navigation computer with an

integrated CD-ROM drive (navigation unit), a NAVI interface, a GPS

receiver with an antenna, a precision resistor for the rear window

defogger, a magnetic field sensor, wheel sensors, a loudspeaker and

mounting material.

Mounting location for the navigation unit

Remove the transport block (two brass screws in the upper plate)

before beginning the installation work. Keep these screws in a safe

place in case the unit must be set in for servicing. After removing

the screws, insert the enclosed plugs into the holes in the upper

plate.

The navigation unit need not be installed at any particular position.

When choosing the mounting location for the navigation unit, you must

make sure that the unit is installed lying in a horizontal position (you must

be able to read the writing on the flap).

Make sure that there is enough room to insert the navigation CD into the

CD drive. Use the enclosed installation material in order to mount the

navigation unit.Positive connection Fig. 2
