Initial Set-up
The following guides you step by step through the initial Set-up of the navigation system.
Firstly, remove the foil from the display.
I. Charging the Battery
Attention!
It can be necessary to recharge the battery for some time initially be­fore it is possible to run through the initial installation, according to the state of charging of the battery installed.
Please pay attention to the following notes when handling the battery:
The charging status display flashes orange until the navigation system is charged. If possible, do not interrupt the charging process before the battery is fully charged. This may take a few hours. The navigation system is fully charged if the charging display lights green. The LED will fade after the end of the charging process in the case of Mod­els 3315 and 3415.
You can use the navigation system 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.
You can leave the external power supply connected, and this is very handy for continuous operation. However, the mains adapter (optional) also re­quires power even when it is not charging up the battery of the navigation system.
It can take several minutes until the device is ready to operate again, fol­lowing the connection of the external power supply, if the charging state of the battery is very low.
The battery can be charged while the device is switched off completely.

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.
To switch your navigation system completely off, push the on/off button at the bottom of the device to the OFF position. No data will be lost during this because of the storage of data 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 it is in the standby mode.
IV. Installing the Navigation Software
The final installation of the navigation software will take place automatically from the internal memory, during the initial setting up, if your device has already been equipped with the basic data of the navigation software at the factory. Follow the instructions on the screen.
An optional memory card must always have to be inserted in the device while the navigation system is being used.
It will be necessary to carry out a Reset to restart the navigation system if the mem­ory card has been removed (see page 22).
Please also read the chapter Navigation starting on page 23.

20
English
Accessing Memory Cards
The appliance only supports memory cards in the FAT16/32 file format. If you insert a card prepared with a different format (e.g. in cameras, MP3 players), your navigation system may not recognize it and will ask you to format it again.
Warning
Formatting the memory card irretrievably wipes out all data.
Data Exchange via Card Reader
If you wish to copy large quantities of data (MP3 files, navigation maps) to the memory card, these can also be stored directly to the memory card.
Many computers already have memory card devices. Insert the card in this and copy the data directly to the card.
Because of the direct access you can achieve a much higher transfer rate compared to using ActiveSync

Safety Instructions for Navigation
The bundled product CD/DVD contains a comprehensive instruction manual.
General Instructions
Do not manipulate the navigation system while driving to protect yourself and others from accidents!
In the event that you do not understand the voice instruction or if you are in any doubt about what to do at the next intersection, then the map or ar­row display will provide you with a quick orientation. Only look at the dis­play when you are in a safe driving situation!
Legal remark
The use of devices that warn for traffic monitoring systems (like „speed traps”) is prohibited in some countries, like Austria, Germany, Ireland and Switzerland. Please obtain information about the legal situation and apply the waning function only where allowed. We cannot be held liable for damages caused by the use of the warning function.
Attention!
The road layout and driving rules take precedence over the instruc­tions of the navigation system. Only follow the instructions when cir­cumstances and driving rules permit it! The navigation system will guide you to your destination even when you have to deviate from your planned route.
The direction statements of the navigation system given do not release the driver of the vehicle from his or her duty of care or personal responsibility.
Plan routes before you leave. If you want to plan a new route whilst on the road pull over and stop driving.
In order to receive the GPS signal correctly, keep away from metal objects as they may hinder reception. Attach the navigation system onto the inside of the windscreen or near the windscreen with the suction cup. Try out dif­ferent positions in your vehicle in order to find the best reception.

Procedure for Vista users:
Please connect your device to your PC with the help of the USB syn­chronization cable. The necessary drivers will be installed automati­cally, after the new device has been found. Your new device will be listed under the ‘Portable Devices’ point in the Windows Explorer overview, following a successful installation.
Attention
Important files can be overwritten or changed during the installation of software. You should create a hard disk backup, in order to be able to have access to the original files in the case of possible problems following the installation.
You must have administrator rights to install the software under Windows® 2000 or XP.
Attention
You should not connect the navigation system to your computer yet.
1. Insert the Support CD and wait until the program starts automatically.
Note
If it does not function, the Auto Run function is probably deacti­vated. The Setup program on the CD must be started, to start instal­lation manually.
2. Choose the language, click then Install ActiveSync® and follow the instruc-
tions on the screen.

nership between your PC and the device.
III. Working with Microsoft® ActiveSync®
ActiveSync® will be started automatically if you connect your navigation system to the PC. The program will check whether the device is one with which a partnership has been entered. If this is the case, the changes that have taken place on the PC and on the navigation system since the last synchronisation will be compared and adjusted to each other. You will be able to define exactly which data will have prior­ity during the synchronisation in the settings of the ActiveSync the Help of the Program (with the F1 Button), in order to become familiar with the effects of the respective settings. A restricted Guest Access, with which you will be able to exchange data, for example, will become active automatically if the naviga­tion system has not been recognised as a partner. If this is the case, although the process concerns the registered partner device, separate your navigation system from the PC and switch it off and on again. Now connect your navigation system to the PC, to restart the recognition process. Repeat the process and, restart your PC in addition, if your device continues to be recognised as a guest.

GPS (Global Positioning System)
GPS is a satellite-backed system for determining your position. With the help of 24 satellites revolving around the earth, it is possible to determine your position on earth with the accuracy of a few meters. The satellite signals are received by the antenna of the built-in GPS receiver, which must have a "line of sight" to at least 4 of these.
Note
When the line of sight (e.g. in tunnels, between houses, in woods or also in vehicles with metal-coated windows) it is not possible to de­termine the position. The satellite reception however automatically picks up again as soon as the obstacle has been passed and the line of sight is re-established. Moving slowly (e.g. slow walking) also lim­its the accuracy of the navigation.
The GPS receiver consumes additional power. This is especially of concern, when running on batteries. To conserve power do not turn on the GPS receiver unneces­sarily. Also terminate the Navigation Software, if it is not needed or satellite recep­tion is not possible for a longer period. However, you can also switch the device off by means of the On/Off switch in the case of a shorter interruption to your journey. Pressing the same switch again will activate a restart. The GPS receiver will also be reactivated at the same time, if navigation software is still active. Here, it can take a short time for the position to be updated again, according to the reception situa­tion.
Note
Please note, that your appliance is preset to not shut down automati­cally after a few minutes without activity. You can change this preset in the Settings mode. If the GPS receiver has not been active for some hours, it must orientate itself again. This process may take a while.
External GPS antenna
This second optional GPS antenna makes it possible to receive the signals of satel­lites better (e. g. in the case of vehicles with a metallized windscreen).
1. The antenna should be pointing upwards.
2. Push the plug of the external GPS antenna into the opening provided for it
(see page 10).
Appendix
59
TMC (Traffic Message Channel)
The Traffic Message Channel (TMC) is a digital radio data service that functions in a similar way to RDS and is used to transmit disruptions to traffic to a suitable reception device.
The traffic information is continuously transmitted across FM. The user is less dependent on the half-hourly broadcast traffic information, because
the signal is continuously transmitted. Apart from this, important information, as in the case of people driving on the wrong side of the road for example, can be passed on immediately.
The transmission is planned for the whole of Europe and is already offered by radio transmitters in many countries. The precision of the TMC messages can deviate greatly according to the country.
The evaluation of TMC messages is not supported by every type of navigation soft­ware. Enquire whether your system supports TMC before the possible purchase of a TMC receiver.
60
English
Installing the External TMC Receiver / Connecting the TMC Diplole Aerial (optional)
Installing the External TMC Receiver (for models E3115, E3315)
1. Connect the mini-USB plug to the
mini-USB connection of your de­vice.
2. Connect the projecting antenna to
the TMC receiver and attach that antenna with the aid of the suckers, at the edge of your windscreen, for example.
3. Connect the TMC receiver to the
car adapter cable after you have at­tached the TMC receiver to your navigation system.
Connecting the TMC Dipole Aerial (models E3215, E3415)
1. Plug the jack plug of the TMC an-
gled aerial into the earphones connection on the left side of your navigation system.
2. Attach the aerial, on the edge or
your windscreen, for example, with the help of the sucker.
3. Place the aerial so that a distance of
approx. 10 cm from the metal frame of the screen is maintained
(similar pictures)
Your navigation system will now be able to receive traffic information through the TMC receiver and thus to avoid potential disruptions to traffic.
Appendix
61
Additional Card Material
Your navigation system is already equipped with digitalized map material in the internal memory and/or memory card at the factory. Depending on the configura­tion, additional maps may be included on your your navigation CDs/DVDs. You will be able to transfer these cards to a memory card immediately. Here, it is recom­mended to use an external card reader (see also page 21). The GoPal Assistant sup­plied with the device enables a simple and individual compilation of the map mate­rial to be transferred.
Depending on the amount of map data on the navigation CDs/DVDs, memory cards with capacities of 256 MB, 512 MB, 1.024 MB or more may be required.
You can obtain additional memory cards (MMC or SD cards) in specialist stores.
Transfer of card material to a memory card
The transfer of additional card material to a memory card can take place through the Explorer of your PCs. Proceed as follows:
1. Insert the CD/DVD with the card material required.
2. Start your workstation and select your CD/DVD Drive.
3. Copy the file with the .psf ending out of the Directory of the region that you
require to the MapRegions Directory on your memory card, from the CD/DVD.
You can transfer several files with map material to your memory card, depending on the capacity of the memory card.
If you have copied digitized maps of several countries or country groups onto your memory card, you will be required to select the desired map in the navigation application of your device.
62
English
Alternative Installation of the Navigation Software from a Memory Card
The software for your navigation system can also be installed directly from a mem­ory card.
The pre-installed software may have to be uninstalled beforehand (see special CleanUp function, Page 55).
You will be requested to install the navigation software during the initial adjust­ment. Please proceed as follows:
1. Remove the memory card from the packaging carefully. Pay attention that
the contacts are not touched or soiled.
2. Push the memory card into the SD-/MMC slot until it engages.
3. Click on OK, in order to install the application.
