Working with Memory Cards Your navigation system supports Mini-SD memory cards. Inserting Memory Cards 1. Carefully take the optional memory card out of its pack- ing (if included). Take care not to touch or dirty the con- tacts. 2. Insert the memory card carefully into the card bay with contacts pointing forward.
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.
Resetting the Navigation System Soft Reset Choose this option if your navigation system is not responding or working properly. 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 inter- rupted and the working memory is reinitialized.
Navigation Safety Instructions for Navigation The bundled product CD/DVD contains a comprehensive instruc- tion 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 instruc- tion 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.
• 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 suction cup. Try out different positions in your ve- hicle in order to find the best reception.
Aerial Orientation The aerial must have unrestricted access to the sky to receive GPS satellite signals. Orient the aerial as horizontally as possible for this reason. Try out aerial and installation possibilities in the vehicle in the case of inadequate reception. It may be necessary to install an external GPS antenna (see page 52) under certain circumstances.
I. Mounting the Car Holder Attention! Only fix the holder for the navigation system to the windscreen, if it does not impede the view. Should this not be possible, then mount the holder with the en- closed suction plate in any way that will allow peril- free and safe operation.
Note Your navigation system can also be equipped alterna- tively with another car mounting according to the ver- sion. 1. Remove the protective foil from the sticky side of the suction plate. 2. Fix the suction plate to a suitable location on the dashboard. Take care, that the surface of the dashboard is clean and press the suction plate strongly onto the surface.
III. Attaching the Navigation System 1. Connect the car adapter (see page 16) and, if necessary, the external GPS aerial, to your navigation system and in- sert the memory card. 2. Place the device below in the centre of the cradle, press it gently backwards until it engages audibly and press the holder downwards.
IV. Connecting the Car Adapter (similar picture) 1. Plug the jack ( ) of the connection cable into the corre- sponding receptor at the bottom of your navigation system (p. 14). 2. Insert the power adapter ( ) now into the cigarette lighter socket and ensure, that it will not lose contact while driv- ing.
V. Starting the Navigation Software Note Your memory card will always have to be inserted into the device during the use of the navigation system, if the card contains (additional) mapping material. It will be necessary to carry out a reset to restart the navigation system if the memory card has been re- moved, only for a short time, while the system was being used (see page 24).
Handsfree facility by means of Bluetooth The Bluetooth technology serves to bridge short distances wire- lessly. Bluetooth devices transmit data wirelessly, so that other devices that also support this technology can communicate with each other without cables. Both devices will have to be adjusted to each other (pairing), be- fore you will be able to use your navigation system as handsfree equipment with your Bluetooth mobile phone.
Pairing the navigation device and the mobile phone 1. Make your mobile phone search for a Bluetooth device. Note Each mobile phone uses different paths to do this. Read the instructions of your mobile phone under all circumstances for this reason. 2.
