use in vehicles and closed spaces. The
unit should be protected from dampness
and dirt.
3012
The Traffic Assist Pro can be used as:
• navigational unit
• MP3 (device for playing music)
• JPEG image viewer
Navigation
Thanks to GPS = Global Positioning
System, you no longer need to spend
hours searching through road atlases.
The folding receiving antenna gives you
constant access to navigation options
when outside in the open. Depending on
reception, you may not be able to use the
navigational function inside buildings.
When used in vehicles, you may not be
able to adequately receive GPS data depending on how the Traffic Assist Pro is
installed. In such cases, you will have to
connect up an external antenna (does not
fall within the scope of supply).
The Traffic Assist Pro is equipped with
TMC, which gives you the option of
receiving traffic announcements via the
TMC antenna provided. Traffic
announcements are transmitted when
the TMC is active. The system plans an
alternative route automatically or on
request to avoid traffic problems,
depending on the setting.
Music
Thanks to the integrated MP3-Player,
you can listen to your favourite tracks
when on the go.
Pictures
The Traffic Assist Pro has a Picture
Viewer offering many functions for viewing pictures.

General operations
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.
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
system for a long time to come if you observe the recommendations listed in the
following:
• "Protect your mobile navigation system from water and moisture. If your
unit is exposed to moisture, switch it
off immediately and disconnect the
power supply. Allow the unit 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. He will be pleased to assist.

General operations
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.
The rechargeable battery is designed
such that it should certainly still be possible for it to be charged and discharged
after 6 months of operation of your mobile navigation system. In the event of a
significant loss of capacity, we recommend replacement of the rechargeable
battery. Please contact your authorised
dealer. Use only genuine BECKER original spare parts.
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 Traffic Assist Pro has been unpacked and checked for damage, the unit
can be started up. The individual start-up
stages are:
• Insert the SD memory card
• connect to power supply
• Switching on the unit
• Ensuring antenna reception (if navigation is desired)
Note:
When the unit is switched on for the
first time, internal configuration takes
place. This takes several minutes. Do
not switch the unit off during this configuration.
SD-Card
The card supplied with the unit has a
capacity of 2 GB and space for a set of
road maps and a limited number of MP3
files and/or images. The number of
music/image files that can be stored on
the card depends on the size of the files.
Alternatively, you can connect a USB
memory stick to the USB port to play
MP3 files or display images.
Note:
Using USB memory sticks to play MP3
files or display images may
significantly decrease the capacity of
the battery.
Note:
Using USB memory sticks (for MP3s)
may interfere with the GPS signal.
