General operation
Maintenance and care
The unit is maintenance-free.
For proper care, a commercially
available cleansing fluid for electrical
devices may be applied using a soft
damp cloth.
¤ Danger!
Danger to life by electrocution.
Always switch off the unit and
disconnect the mains power supply
unit before cleaning the unit, supplied
components, or accessories.
Note:
Do not use any aggressive or abrasive
substances or cloths which may
damage the surface.
A micro-fibre cloth is particularly
suitable for the display.
The unit must not be exposed to water.
Your mobile navigation system was
designed and manufactured with great
care and should be treated with equal
care. You will enjoy your mobile navigation s ystem for a lon g time to co me if y ou
observe the recommendations listed in
the following:
• Protect your mobile navigation unit
and the accessories from water and
moisture. If your unit has been
exposed to moisture, switch it off
immediately and disconnect the power
supply. Allow to dry at room
temperature.
• Do not operate your mobile navigation
system in a dusty or dirty environment
and do not store it in such an
environment.
•Do not store your mobile navigation
system in hot environments. High
temperatures can shorten the service
life of electronic components in your
unit, damage the rechargeable
batteries and cause certain plastics to
warp or melt.
• Do not store your mobile navigation
system in cold environments. During
operation, when the unit warms up to
operating temperature, moisture may
form internally, causing damage to
electronic components.
• Do not drop your mobile navigation
system unit, protect it from shocks and
do not shake it. Improper handling can
damage components within the unit.
• Never use corrosive or aggressive
chemicals, cleaning solutions or
aggressive detergents for cleaning.
All the above information applies equally
to the mobile navigation system, the
rechargeable battery, the mains charging and car power adapters as well as all
accessories. Should one of these parts
not work properly, please contact your
authorised dealer.
20
GENERAL OPERATION >>>
Battery quality declaration
The capacity of the rechargeable battery
in your mobile navigation system
decreases with every charging/
discharging cycle. Improper storage at
excessively high or low temperatures
may also cause a gradual deterioration
of capacity. Consequently, the operating
time may be substantially reduced even
in the case of a fully charged battery.
Display quality declaration
In some cases, for technical reasons, a
few discoloured dots (pixels) may be
visible on the display. Some pixels may
also appear brighter or darker. However,
such instances do not represent a
product flaw.
Start-up
Once the Navigation device has been
unpacked and checked for damage, the
unit can be started up. The individual
start-up steps are:
• connect to power supply.
•switching on the unit.
• ensuring antenna reception (if
navigation is desired)
Power supply
Note:
You can charge the Navigation device
via the car charger cable included in the
scope of delivery or via the optionally
available mains power supply unit.
When the Navigation device is connected to a PC, it is supplied with power via
the PC and does not consume battery
power.
21
>>> GENERAL OPERATION
Using the battery
The internal power supply is via the
integrated rechargeable battery. The
rechargeable battery is maintenancefree and does not require any particular
care.
You are alerted by a warning message
when the battery should be recharged.
After the alert, the device can still be
used for approximately 10 minutes
before switching off automatically.
Note:
Note that if the battery is completely
discharged, it may take up to a minute
before the device can be switched on
again.
Note:
In the event of a defective battery,
please contact your authorised dealer.
Please do not attempt to remove the
battery yourself.
Connection for the cigarette lighter
Note:
If the cigarette lighter has recently been
used and is still hot, wait until the lighter
socket has cooled down.
Connect the power supply via the vehicle
battery and the cable provided for the
cigarette lighter as follows:
> Grasp the connector of the connection
cable and insert it gently without force
into the connector socket of the
navigation device up to the stop, or in
the case of a device with an active
cradle, on the underside of the
supporting plate. (Model dependent,
this step is not required on navigation
devices with magnetic holders)
> Insert the adapter into the cigarette
lighter.
Note:
When the engine is switched off, the
power supply slowly discharges the
vehicle battery via the cigarette lighter!
Do not therefore operate the Navigation
device for long periods with the engine
switched off.
To receive TMC messages (depending
on the model), the power supply must
be connected to the supporting plate in
the case of a device with an active
cradle.
22
GENERAL OPERATION >>>
Connection to the mains outlet
¤ Danger!
Ma ke sure that y our han ds a re not wet
and that the power supply unit is dry.

GENERAL OPERATION >>>

>>> NAVIGATION MODE
Navigation Mode
What is navigation?
The term "navigation" (lat. navigare = to
travel by sea) is generally understood to
mean the determination of a vehicle’s
location, the determination of its
direction and its distance from the
desired destination and the required
route to get there. Stars, prominent
landmarks, compasses and satellites
etc. are used as navigation tools.
With the Navigation device, the location
is determined by the GPS receiver. The
Global Positioning System (GPS) was
developed during the 1970s by the US
military as a weapons guiding system.
GPS is based on a total of 24 satellites
which orbit the Earth and transmit
signals. A GPS receiver receives these
signals and calculates its distance to the
individual satellites based on the signal
travel times, and then determines your
current geographical position.
Signals from at least three satellites are
required to determine your position;
your height above sea level can be
calculated if signals are received from
four or more satellites.
The Navigation device determines the
direction and distance from the
destination using a navigation computer
and a digital street map held in its
internal memory.
For safety reasons, route guidance is
given predominantly in spoken form.
This is supported by a direction indicator
and a map display on the touch screen.
¤ Safety instructions
• Road traffic regulations always take
priority. The navigation system is
merely an aid, data/information may
in select cases be incorrect. The driver
must decide in each situation by himor herself if he or she will follow the
directions.
No liability will be assumed for
incorrect directions provided by the
navigation system.
• When first put into use it can take up
to 30 minutes to fix the position.
• Observation of traffic signs and local
traffic regulations must always take
priority.
• Traffic guidance is restricted to
passenger vehicles. Special driving
recommendations and regulations
for other vehicles (e.g. commercial
vehicles) are not included.
• Destinations may only be entered
when the vehicle is stationary.

Traffic announcements using TMC (depending on the model)
Your Navigation device can receive
traffic announcements (TMC messages)

with the integrated TMC antenna must
be connected to the carrier plate for this
function.
Note:
TMC is not available in all countries.
Traffic announcements are transmitted
by radio stations via the TMC (Traffic
Message Channel) in addition to the
radio programme and are received and
analysed by the navigation system.
Receiving traffic announcements is free
of charge.
Note:
As the traffic announcements are
transmitted by radio stations, we cannot
assume responsibility for the
completeness or accuracy of the
announcements.
Austria: The location and event code
was made available by ASFINAG and
BMVIT.
The Navigation device constantly checks
whether there are any relevant
announcements for the route that has
been set. All traffic problems that have
been received are shown on the map.
If the continuous checks determine that
a traffic announcement is relevant to
route guidance, the unit can
automatically recalculate a new route to
the destination (See "The TMC or Traffic
button (model dependent)" on page 75).

the driver during the travel with useful
information and help in case of
unexpected traffic situations.
The detour assistant
This function reacts to the reduction of

A message is displayed with the
question "You are probably standing in a
traffic jam. Would you like to avoid the
jam using a detour?". Now you can have

detour assistant calculates possible
alternative routes before the next
crossing in case of strong stop-and-go
traffic to get you there faster. If the
assistant can calculate an alternative
route before the vehicle passes the
crossing, the symbol is blinking. The
alternative routes can be displayed and
selected similar to the identically named
function described on page 84.
The Park Assistant
This assistant will be activated when you
are near the destination or passed by the
destination. In the case when the driver is

This assistant reacts when you leave the
suggested route, and asks your
intentions with a list of options.
Depending on whether you are looking
for a resting place or a parking place, or
would like to avoid a visual traffic
obstruction, a tunnel or a toll road, the
assistant displays the appropriate POIs in
the vicinity or calculates a detour that
supports the driver in avoiding the given
