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 bat-
tery 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 naviga-
tion 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.
• Note: You can use the navigation system during the charg-
ing 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.
• Information: 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.
