Warning symbols used
In the chapters, warning symbols refer to important notes for you and the device.
DANGER!
Warns about injuries or life-threatening
danger
DANGER!
Warns about accidents
Use as directed
The device is designed for mobile use in vehicles.
Some functions may not be used by the driver.
Special information about the navigation of trucks,
busses and campers, such as altitude and width
limitations or maximum permissible road load, is
not included in the navigation data!
Navigation off the roads (offroad route guidance)
is not possible with this navigation device.
Road safety
The navigation device does not release
you from your responsibility as a driver
for correct and prudent behaviour in traffi c. Always observe the applicable traffi c
rules.
Use your device in such a way that you
can always safely control your vehicle. If
in doubt, stop and operate the device
while the vehicle is standing. If you are
the driver, you may not use the applications that distract you from the traffi c
around you (depending on the scope of
functions of the device, e.g. watching
videos).
General safety notes
Observe the following notes to protect the device
against defects and yourself against injuries and
life-threatening dangers from an ignition or explosion:
Protect the device against moisture since it
is not waterproof and not splashproof.
Do not modify or open the device. Otherwise, it could be damaged and then ignite or
explode. Or acidic, fl ammable liquid could
run out of the battery.
Do not expose the device to very low (below
-20 °C) and very high temperatures (above
60 °C), e.g. close to fi re, heating devices or in
a parked car with direct exposure to the sun.
Moisture could form inside the device or the
device could overheat. The device or battery
could deform and even ignite or explode. Or
acidic, fl ammable liquid could run out of the
battery.
If battery liquid comes into contact with
your eyes or skin, immediately fl ush with water and consult a doctor.
Always ensure a safe installation in the vehicle. If the bracket is not correctly affi xed,
the device may turn into a safety risk for the
vehicle occupants during heavy braking or in
case of an impact.
Remove the device from the power supply
when you park your vehicle since it contin-
ues to use battery power and could deplete
the vehicle battery. Do not unplug the connector of the power supply by pulling on the
wire. The wire could be damaged and cause
electrical shock.

Information about GPS
The GPS (Global Positioning System) allows

The navigation device measures the current position of your vehicle via GPS and compares these
coordinates with its map material. The map material contains the geographic coordinates of points
of interest, streets and cities that you can view on
the display of the navigation device. The device
uses this information to calculate the route to the
destination you entered.

DANGER!
Disregarding traffi c rules can lead to
accidents
Follow the turn-by-turn directions only if the street
routing and traffi c rules allow it. The navigation
device will bring you to your destination even if
you have to deviate from the planned route.
Notes:
Repeat the voice output if you did not understand it (ch. "Voice output during route
guidance").
You can always use the map or arrow display for orientation purposes.
Start route guidance
If you start the route guidance, a route with the
route options is calculated. The destinations are
automatically stored in the Last Destinations &
Tours.
Touch the Start Route Guidance button.
The route is calculated and the route guidance
started.
Destination input during route
guidance
If you enter an additional destination during an active route guidance and start the route guidance,
you have two options:
You can insert the destination as interim destination. The route is recalculated and the
interim destination is approached next.

Disturbed GPS reception
External infl uences can interfere with the view to
the sky and, therefore, the GPS reception of the
navigation device (ch. "Troubleshooting table").
On the map, the symbol indicates that no
suffi cient GPS signal is being received. If
you start a route guidance at this point, the navigation device calculates the route based on the last
known position.
If the GPS reception is disturbed during route
guidance for an extended period of time, the route
guidance is stopped.
As soon as the reception is re-established, the device automatically recognises whether your position has changed and, if necessary, recalculates
the route. At that time, you can simply continue
your route guidance.

Offroad route guidance
(geocaching)
Geocaching is the search for locations via GPS.
The coordinates of the locations, so-called geocaches, are provided on the Internet.
The device allows navigating completely without
considering streets and entering coordinates as
the destination. For offroad route guidance, select "Offroad" as the type of route calculation in
the route options. The navigation device then supports the route guidance like a digital compass:
An arrow points to the direction of the destination.
The distance to the destination (straight line)
is displayed.
A route is not being calculated.
No turn-by-turn directions are given.
A prerequisite in this case is suffi cient GPS reception.

Start the route guidance (ch. "Route guid-
ance").
Note:
Locations photographed by you can also be
