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. The satellite signals are received by the antenna
of the built-in GPS receiver, which must have a "line of sight" to at least 4 of these.
• Note: By limited line of sight (e.g. in tunnels, between houses, in woods or also in
vehicles with metal-coated windows) it is not possible to determine the position. The
satellite reception however automatically picks up again as soon as the obstacle
has been passed and there line of sight is reestablished again.
The GPS receiver consumes additional power. This is especially of concern, when
running on batteries. To conserve power do not turn on the GPS receiver unnecessarily.
However, you can also switch the device off by means of the ON/OFF switch in the
case of a shorter interruption to your journey. Pressing the same switch again will
activate a restart. The GPS receiver will also be reactivated at the same time, if
navigation software is still active. Here, it can take a short time for the position to
be updated again, according to the reception situation.
• Note: Please note that your appliance is preset to not shut down automatically after
a few minutes without activity. You can Change this preset in the Settings mode.
• If the GPS receiver has not been active for some hours, it must orientate itself again.
This process may take a while.
Memory Card Quick Installation
This option is only available to you if your navigation system is equipped with a prepared
memory card. In this case, you will ready be able to use the Navigation function of
your device after a short time, without carrying out the pre-installation on a PC.

navigation system. A Soft Reset will have to be carried out to restart the navigation
system, if the memory card is removed during its use, even for a short time.
