Initial Set-up

The following guides you step by step through the initial set up of the navigation system.

Firstly, remove the foil for protecting the device during transportation 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 lights orange until the navigation system is charged. 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.

You can use the navigation system during the charging process, but the power supply must not be interrupted during initial set-up.

To fully charge the built-in battery, the external power source (car adapter or optional power adapter) should remain continuously connected to the device.

You can leave the main adapter connected, and this is very handy for continuous operation. Please note, that both the car adapter as well as the optional power adapter are consuming power, even when the battery of the navigation system is not being charged.

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 will even be charged while the device is switched off completely.
