The Traffic Assist
Use
The Traffic Assist is a powerful PND
(Personal Navigation Device) for use in
vehicles and closed spaces. The unit
should be protected from dampness and
dirt.
The Traffic Assist can be used as:
• navigational unit
• MP3 (device for playing music)
• JPEG picture viewer
• Video player
• Can be used as a very convenient handsfree unit via Bluetooth®
Navigation
Thanks to GPS = Global Positioning Sys-
tem, you no longer need to spend hours
searching through road atlases.
Once outside buildings, the receiver antenna integrated in the unit gives you continuous access to navigational possibilities. 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 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 with TMC 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 has a Picture Viewer offering many functions for viewing pictures.
Video
Traffic Assist features a video player for
playing videos.
Telephone
Your Traffic Assist is equipped with Bluetooth® wireless technology. You can connect a mobile phone equipped with Bluetooth® wireless technology to it via
Bluetooth. Your Traffic Assist the serves
as a very convenient hands-free unit.

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.
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.
!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.

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 has been unpacked
and checked for damage, the unit can be
started up. The individual start-up stages
are:
• insert memory card
• connect to power supply
• Switching on the unit
• Ensuring antenna reception (if navigation is desired)
Memory card
The memory card provided has a storage
capacity of 2 GB and offers sufficient
space for the complete European map set,
the Traffic Assist does not support larger
memory cards.
The complete European map set requires
approximately 1.8 GB of memory space.
If you intend to listen to music, look at
pictures or watch videos on the Traffic
Assist. We recommend that you store the
relevant data on a separate memory card
(not included in scope of delivery).
If you would like to listen to music with
the Traffic Assist during navigation, the
music must be stored on the supplied
memory card. The Traffic Assist does not
support the changing of memory cards
during navigation.

Power supply
At home, the Traffic Assist can be powered by means of the supplied mains power supply unit. In the vehicle, the cable for
the cigarette lighter can be used (also supplied). In both cases, the internal battery
of the Traffic Assist is charged. The power
supply can either be connected directly to
the Traffic Assist, or to the docking station.
Using the battery
The internal power supply is via the integrated rechargeable battery. The rechargeable battery is maintenance-free and does
not require any particular care.
Connecting to socket
Connecting up to power supply
The mains power supply unit is connected
to the public mains grid as follows:
> Hold the connector and push it, with-
out using excessive force, to the stop in
the relevant connecting socket on the
Traffic Assist or the docking station.
Notes:
• Please note that TMC reception is only
possible when the power supply is connected to the docking station.
• If the unit battery is completely discharged, connect the power supply. It
may take up to a minute before the
Traffic Assist can be switched on again.
Note:
Please note that with a completely discharged battery, the unit requires up to
one minute until it can be switched on
again.
!Danger of Death!
Make sure that your hands are not damp
and that the mains section is dry. Only
connect the mains section to a mains
supply with which such purposes are
permitted.

Connecting to the cigarette
lighter
Power supplies using a vehicle battery
are
connected up as follows using the cable
supplied for the cigarette lighter.
> Hold the connector and push it, with-
out using excessive force, to the stop in
the relevant connecting socket on the
Traffic Assist or the docking station.
> Plug the plug adapter into the cigarette
lighter.
Unit bracket
The Traffic Assist can be attached directly
to the windscreen with the unit holder.
Note:
Remove the mains section if you are not
planning on using the Traffic Assist for a
long time.
Note:
If the cigarette lighter has just been used
and is still warm, wait until this has
cooled down in its mounting.
Note:
If the engine is switched off, using
the vehicle's power supply through the
cigarette lighter will slowly drain
the vehicle battery! Do not therefore operate the Traffic Assist for extended periods with the engine off.
Note:
The Traffic Assist 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.
