24-month warranty (battery: 6 months)
for BECKER units, beginning on the day

charge or mechanical damage are excluded from the warranty.
The warranty is invalidated in the case of
repairs or tampering on the part of the
buyer or unauthorised third parties.
Repairs may only be performed by persons and service centres expressly authorised by the manufacturer or by the
manufacturer himself.
This warranty does not affect or
restrict the legal warranty rights of
the buyer.

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.
c 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 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.
GENERAL OPERATION >>>
•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.

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.
18
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.
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.
> 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.

Connection to the mains outlet
c Danger!
Make sure that your hands are not wet
and that the power supply unit is dry.
Only connect the power supply unit to

Connecting to power supply
Connection to the public mains grid is
achieved using the optionally available
mains power supply unit. Please
proceed as follows to connect to the
mains:
> Hold the connector and push it all the
way into the connecting socket in the
Navigation device without using
excessive force.
> Insert the plug of the power supply unit
into the socket.
Note:

not using the Navigation device for
longer periods of time.
TMC antenna (depending on the
model)
The supplied TMC antenna is integrated
into the cable for power supply.
The TMC antenna runs in parallel with
the the cigarette lighter cable in the
delivered condition.
If the TMC reception is poor, you must
remove the cable of the TMC antenna
from the cable for the cigarette lighter.
You can then use the supplied suction
cup to attach the TMC antenna to the
windshield.
Note:
The TMC antenna must be installed in
such a way that it does not distract you
while driving.
GPS antenna
Unit antenna
The GPS antenna is integrated into the
housing.
Note:
The integrated GPS antenna is not
suitable for use in vehicles with antiglare windows (metalised thermoglass or metal foil, indicated by the
window label - SIGLA SOL, SIGLA
CHROM, SIGLA, KOOL-OF, SUNGATE,
etc.) and vehicles with fine-meshed
heating wires in the windows.

GENERAL OPERATION >>>
Cable for vehicle integration
(depending on model, optional)
With a 4-pin 2.5mm jack cable you can
integrate your Navigation device
seamlessly into your vehicle.
With this cable you can:
•connect your Navigation device to the

Note:
Once the cable is connected, the
loudspeaker of the basic device is
switched off.
Memory card
Your Navigation device has a slot for a
micro SD memory card.
As the map data is stored in an internal
memory on the Navigation device, the
slot for a micro SD memory card is used
for updates and for viewing images.
The memory card can also be used for
supplementing the map data.
The card slot is located on the left on the
underside of the unit. The card slot is
equipped with a spring-actuated locking
and ejector mechanism.

Inserting the memory card
> Remove the memory card from its
packaging without touching or soiling
the contact bar.
> Hold the memory card so that the
contact strip is facing towards the rear
of the unit.
> Guide the memory card into the card
slot.
> Exert a little pressure and slide the
memory card into the card slot until it
snaps in.
Ejecting the memory card
The card slot ejects the card so that you
can pull it out with two fingers.
> Use your finger to gently press the
memory card against the spring force
into the card slot and then release it.
The card is ejected.
> Remove the memory card and place it
in the packaging while ensuring not to
touch contact bar.
Unit bracket
The Navigation device can be attached
directly to the windscreen with the unit
holder.
Note:
The Navigation device and unit bracket
must not be exposed to long periods of
direct sunlight. Temperatures inside the
vehicle of +70 °C and higher may
damage parts of the bracket.
Fitting the unit bracket
Note:
Fasten the unit holder such that your
field of vision is not impaired when the
Navigation device is installed and
ensure that the unit is outside the
deployment area of the airbag.
Ensure that the electrical connection
cable does not hamper you from
accessing the vehicle's controls.
Clean the attachment surface on the
windscreen to ensure that it is clean and
free of grease. Do not use greasy or
soapy cleaning agents.

mode is activated, it is automatically
resumed if the Navigation device is
switched back on again within approx. 4
hours.
