This will help ensure reliable operation and extend the service life for your appliance. Keep the packaging and the user instructions for future reference or inquiries at a later date. If you pass the article on to another person, you must pass on these instructions. • Never open up the housing of the appliance or the power adapter. These contain no user-serviceable parts.
SAFETY INFORMATION Dispose of the used batteries following the manufacturer’s instructions. • Batteries cannot withstand heat. Avoid the appliance and the integrated battery becoming overheated. Failure to comply with this instruction may lead to damage to and even explosion of the battery. • Use only the original power pack to charge the battery or the car adapter from the optional navigation kit. • The batteries are special category waste.
INSTALLATION 5 The following guides you step by step through the initial set up of the navigation system. Firstly, remove the foil for protecting the device during transportation from the display.

INSTALLATION 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.

GPS (Global Positioning System) GPS is a satellite-backed system for determining your position. With the help of 24 satellites revolving around the earth, it is possible to determine your position on earth with the accuracy of a few meters.
