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.

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.

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.

>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:

Remove the power supply unit when 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.
