SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Please read this section carefully and follow all the instructions
given. This will help ensure reliable operation and extend the service life for your appliance.
Keep the packaging and the user instructions for future reference
or inquiries at a later date. If you pass the article on to another
person, you must pass on these instructions.
• Never open up the housing of the appliance or the power
adapter. These contain no user-serviceable parts. If the
housing is opened there is a danger to life from electric
shock.
• Do not place any objects on the appliance and do not exert
any pressure on the display. Otherwise there is a danger
that the screen will break.
• To avoid damage, do not touch the screen with sharp objects. Use only the stylus provided (if also supplied) or another blunt implement. The device can also be operated
with a finger in many cases.
• There is a risk of injury if the display breaks. If this should
occur, use protective gloves to pack the broken parts and
contact customer support to arrange for disposal. Then
wash your hands with soap, since there is a possibility that
chemicals may have escaped.
• Never allow children to play with electrical equipment
unsupervised. Children may not always correctly recognize
possible danger.

damaged.
... if the housing of the appliance or the Power Pack becomes
damaged or fluids leak into it. Components must be checked
by Customer Service in order to avoid damage!
DATA SECURITY
• Every time you update your data make backup copies on
an external storage medium. The supplier does not assume
liability for data loss or damage to data storage units, and
no claims can be accepted for damages resulting from the
loss of data or for consequential damages.

OPERATING ENVIRONMENT
Failure to follow these instructions may lead to damage to your appliance. The guarantee will be excluded in such cases.
• Keep your navigation System and all connected devices
away from moisture and avoid dust, heat and direct sunlight, especially in the car.
• Make sure you protect your appliance from getting wet,
e.g. from rain and hail, at all times. Please pay attention
that moisture can even build up in a protective pouch because of condensation.
• Avoid heavy vibrations and shaking, such as can arise, for
example, in the case of transverse field intrusions.
• Avoid the device from releasing itself from its holder, for
example when braking. Install the device as vertically as
possible.
REPAIR
• Please contact our Service Center if you encounter technical problems with your appliance.
• In the event repair becomes necessary, please use only our
authorized Service Partners. You will find the address on
the back of your guarantee card.
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE
• The appliance is most reliably operated at an ambient temperature of between 41°F and 104°F (5°C and 40°C) and
at a relative humidity of between 10% and 90% (noncondensing).
• In the powered down state the appliance can be stored at
between 32°F and 140°F (0°C and 60°C).
• Store the appliance in a safe location to avoid high temperatures (e.g. when parking or from direct sunlight).

ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY
• When connecting additional or other components the “Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive” (EMC) must be adhered to. Please also 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 high-frequency and magnetic interference (televisions, loudspeaker systems, mobile telephones
and so on. This will help 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 optimized 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 a car, please ensure that the electronic systems of the car are working properly.

CONNECTION
When connecting your appliance be sure to correctly observe the
following instructions:
POWER THROUGH CAR ADAPTER
• The car adapter should only be connected to the lighter socket of a car (car battery = DC 12V , no trucks!). If you
are in any doubt about the power source in your car, contact your car manufacturer.
POWER SUPPLY
• The outlet must be in the vicinity of the appliance and must
be easily accessible.
• Only use the mains adapter on grounded sockets at
100 – 240 V~ AC, 50/60 Hz. If you are unsure about the
power supply to the place of use, ask the relevant energy
supplier.
• Use only the power adapter provided with your appliance.
• For additional safety, we recommend the use of a surge
protector in order to protect your appliance from damage
from spikes or lighting strikes on the power network.
CABLING
• Arrange cables so that no-one can tread on them or trip
over them.
• Do not place any items on the cable.

same type of battery or a similar type recommended
by the manufacturer. Never open the rechargeable
battery. Do not throw the rechargeable battery into
fire. Dispose of the used batteries following the
manufacturer's instructions.
• Batteries cannot withstand heat. Avoid the appliance and the
integrated battery becoming overheated. Failure to comply
with this instruction may lead to damage to and even explosion of the battery.

TRANSPORT
If you wish to transport the appliance follow the instructions below:
• Following transport of the appliance wait until the unit has
acclimatized before using it.
• In the case of wide fluctuations in temperature or humidity
condensation or moisture may form inside the appliance
and this can cause an electrical short-circuit.
• In order to protect the appliance from dirt, knocks and
scratching, use either the protective case.
• Before travelling ensure that you are aware of the power
and communications provision at your destination. Before
travelling obtain any power or communications adapters
(modem, LAN, etc.) that may be needed.
• When shipping your appliance use only the original packaging and advise the carrier accordingly.
• When passing through the hand luggage control at airports, it is recommended that you pass the appliance and
all magnetic storage media (external hard drives) through
the X-ray system (the machine on which you place your
bags). Avoid the magnetic detector (the structure through
which you yourself pass) or the magnetic wand (the hand
device that the security staff use), since this may corrupt
your data.
