INSTAllING BATTeRIeS

Insert the batteries: To open the battery cover, lift
the silver fastener, turn it 90° counterclockwise
and pull it up so that the cover of the battery
compartment is removed.
Insert the batteries as indicated in the
battery compartment. Place the battery
cover back on and close it by turning
the silver fastener clockwise.
Now switch on your navigation device.
Depending on which type of battery you
are using, you must select the battery type
under Settings > System/General > Battery type.
This is important to adapt the device optimally to the battery
type and thus to achieve the maximum run time from the battery.

Battery notes:

• Do not use any sharp objects to remove the batteries.
• Do not attempt to open the batteries.
• Note the regulations governing the disposal of the batteries.
• Operating temperature: The operating temperature range is 15° to 140°F.
Use AA alkaline, lithium batteries or rechargeable NiMH batteries. Please note that
batteries cannot be recharged while in the device. High brightness of the display
(e.g. over 50%) will reduce the run time of the batteries. Batteries are very sensitive
to temperature.
In cold conditions, the run time of the batteries is greatly curtailed. Optimum results
are achieved at around 70°F. If the battery is weak, the screen is dimmed and the
loudspeaker output is reduced.
To ensure the longest possible battery run time, beep output is recommended. When
using rechargeable batteries, please follow the manufacturer's instructions on use to
ensure the maximum capacity of the rechargeable batteries.
