Electromagnetic Compatibility
•When connecting additional or other components the “Electromagnetic Com-
patibility 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 etc. 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.

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
You have the following possibilities to charge the battery of your navigation system:
• by means of the car adapter,
• by means of the USB cable (optional) or
• by means of the AC adapter (optional).
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 red 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. It will shine green when
the accumulator is completely charged in the case of model nos. E4125 and
P4225. The LED will fade after the end of the charging process in the case of
model P4425.
•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.

bottom of your navigation system.
2. Insert the power adapter (o) into the cigarette lighter socket and ensure, 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 type of software or drivers installation
will be necessary for this. Do not interrupt the charging process if possible during the
initial bringing into operation.

Note
Brief pressure on the on/off button will be enough to switch the de-
vice on or off, provided that your navigation system is connected to an
external source of electricity or is running in battery operation (standby
mode).
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 device is delivered in a state in which it will not switch off itself automatically, when it is switched on and not being used. You can adjust the
operating time of your device to your requirements by means of the
Settings button on the main screen.
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 32).
Please also read the chapter Navigation starting on page 33.

Security
You have the possibility of protecting your device against external access by means of this
function. Some one-off settings will have to be made before you will be able to use this
function. Proceed as follows to do this:
Fingerprint Sensor
Your new navigation system is equipped with a fingerprint sensor.
Benefits of this technology
First of all, it provides extra comfort. You will not have to memorize passwords, because
the software manages those for you. The program remembers and saves all input that is
necessary for authentication purposes. By your fingerprint the program recognizes that
you are authorized to retrieve and transmit the login data.
Note
Store your passwords and access data in a safe place. If you cannot identify
yourself by your fingerprint (e.g., when working on someone else's computer), you can log in with your access data in the usual way.
Storing the password and the information note
1. Go to the settings by means of the main display.
2. Click on Security, in order to start the respective function. The following display
will appear:
3. Click on the left interface, in order to enter a password.

4. Click on the first field. A keyboard will appear. Enter a password with it.
Note
The password must consist of at least 4 symbols. Use a combination of
letters (A-Z and numbers (0-9) for it. Keep the password in a safe place.
5. Confirm the password with the symbol after you have entered it.
6. Enter the password in the second field to reconfirm it and in order to avoid potential careless mistakes.
Note
The password will be displayed in the form of small stars (****).
7. An additional text field will appear after you have entered the password. Enter an
information note here that will serve as a support for remembering your password.
You will be able to call up this information if you have forgotten or mislaid the
password.
