Electromagnetic Compatibility
•When connecting additional or other components the “Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive” (EMC) must be adhered to. Please note that only screened cable (maximum 10ft) should be used with this appliance.
•For optimal performance, maintain a distance of at least 10 ft. from sources of highfrequency and magnetic interference (televisions, loudspeaker systems, mobile telephones etc.). This will help to avoid malfunctions and loss of data.
•Electronic devices emit electromagnetic waves during operation.
These emissions are harmless, but can interfere with other devices operated in close proximity.
While our devices are tested and optimised for electromagnetic compliance in our laboratories, interference during operation may still occur in the device itself and with other devices in its proximity.
Should such interference occur, try to eliminate it by adjusting the positions of and the distances between the devices.
Before driving, please ensure that the electronic systems of the car are working properly.
Connection
When connecting your appliance it is important to observe the following instructions:
Power supply through Car Adapter
•The car adapter should only be connected to the lighter socket of a car
(car battery = DC 12V
, truck battery = DC 24V 
). If you are in any doubt about the power source in your car, please contact your car manufacturer.
Cabling
•Arrange cables so that they do not cause unnecessary obstruction or risk of entanglement or snaring. E.g. ensure that the cables cannot be tread on, or tripped over.
•Do not place any items on the cable.
Information about the Regulatory Compliance according to R&TTE
The company declares that this device is in compliance with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC. Complete declarations of conformity are available under www.medion.com/conformity.

To avoid damage during transport, the appliance was supplied in protective packaging. The majority of packaging is manufactured from materials which can be disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner and be recycled professionally.
Transport
When transporting the appliance please follow the instructions below:
•After transporting the appliance wait until the unit has acclimatised and adjust to surrounding conditions (e.g. room temperature and humidity) prior to use. In the event of large fluctuations in temperature or humidity, condensation or moisture may form inside the appliance. This can cause an electrical short-circuit.
•In order to protect the appliance from dirt, knocks and scratching, please use an appropriate protective case.
•Before travelling ensure that you are aware of the power and communications provisions at your destination. Before travelling obtain any power or communications adapters that may be required for the operation of your device.

Initial Set up
The following is a step by step guide to assist in the initial Set-up of the navigation system.
Start by removing the protective plastic from the display.
I. Charging the Battery
The battery of your navigation system can be charged in the following ways:
•Using the supplied car adapter,
•using a suitable USB cable or
•by using a mains adapter (purchased as an optional extra)
Attention!
It may be necessary to initially charge the battery for a considerable period of time prior to commencing and running through the initial installation, this is dependent on the level of charge held at the time by the internal battery.
Please observe the following notes relating to the battery:
•The charging status display LED will flash orange until the navigation system is charged. If possible, do not interrupt the charging process until the
battery is fully charged. This may take a few hours. The charging status LED will shine constant green if the battery has a high level of charge. Leave the device charging for 20 further minutes, to ensure the battery is fully charged.
•The navigation system can be used during the charging process, but the power supply must not be interrupted during initial set-up.
•Leave the external power supply connected to the navigation system for around 24 hours, so that the backup battery also charges-up fully.
•The external power supply can remain connected; this is recommended for continuous operation. However, the mains adapter (optional) must remain switched on whenever it is connected to the navigation system.
•Even after a power source has been connected to the device it may take several minutes until the device is once again ready to operate again, this occurs if the charging state of the battery is exceptionally low. The battery will continue to be charged if the power supply is connected and the device is switched off.

(similar picture)
1.Plug the jack (n) of the connection cable into the corresponding receptor at the bottom of your navigation system.
2.Insert the power adapter (o) into the cigar lighter socket ensuring, that it will not lose contact while driving. This could cause a malfunction.
Alternative possibility of charging the battery
The battery will charge as soon as you connect your navigation device to a switched-on PC or notebook by means of a USB cable (optional). No additional software or updates is required for your PC to perform this function. Do not interrupt the charging process if possible during the initial charge.
Note
The brightness will be adjusted downwards, if necessary, if a USB connection is being set up when the device is switched on.
It is recommended to set the device to the stand-by mode, in order to shorten the charging time by USB.

III. Switching on the Device
You will switch your navigation device on or off again completely by pressing the On/Off key for a long time (> 3 sec.).
The Navigation System will start the initial installation automatically. The brand logo will appear and your device will display the application screen after a few seconds.

Note
Brief pressure on the on/off button will be enough to switch the device on or off, provided that your navigation system is connected to an external source of electricity or is running in battery operation (standby mode).
You can adjust the period of operation to suit your needs using the Settings button on the main screen of your device. Your device is delivered in a status in which it will not switch off independently.
Press and hold the On/Off key (> 3 sec.), to completely switch off the device.
No data will be lost as data is stored in the internal memory. The starting process will only last slightly longer.
Your navigation system will use a low amount of electricity and the batteries will be discharged, even when in standby mode.
