1. Introduction
This manual will help you to get the best out of your ViaMichelin Navigation X-930 device.
The pack you have bought contains:
• 1 ViaMichelin Navigation X-930 with a stylus
• 1 USB cable
• 1 Mount for windshield or dashboard use
• 1 Cigarette lighter cable
• 1 Power adapter
• 1 SD card with country map
• 1 ViaMichelin Navigation DVD-ROM
• 1 Installation diagram
• 1 Quickstart Manual
Before installing your ViaMichelin Navigation X-930 in your car, we recommend that you
first familiarise yourself with the system.
To do this, plug your ViaMichelin Navigation X-930 into a power socket (with the power
adapter supplied) and charge it for four hours when charging for the first time.
You will notice that the indicator light in the top right-hand corner of your ViaMichelin
Navigation X-930 changes colour according to the battery power level:
• Orange indicator light: the ViaMichelin Navigation X-930 is charging.
• Green indicator light: the ViaMichelin Navigation X-930 is fully charged.
The ViaMichelin Navigation X-930 has a battery life of approximately 3 hours depending
on use and the screen brightness maintained.
The device is fitted with a touchscreen, and is designed to be operated with your fingertips
for greater convenience. You can also use the stylus provided (located on the right of your
ViaMichelin Navigation X-930). The "
Exit" key in the Main Menu is used to switch off the ViaMichelin Navigation X-930.
To turn it on again, just press the on/off button.
Although the ViaMichelin Navigation X-930 is ergonomically designed to be as intuitive as possible, this manual contains precise instructions, together with tips and advice, for each of the many functions that the device offers.

2. Installation
2.1. Installing the hardware
• Installing on the windscreen: install the car mounting system on the windscreen by
applying pressure to the suction pad and then turning the screw clockwise (reverse the procedure to remove the windscreen mounting system).
• Installing on the
dashboard: remove the protective film from the plate, position it on a
perfectly smooth and clean surface by pressing evenly over the whole area, then install the mounting system as described above.
• Mount your ViaMichelin Navigation X-930 on the mounting system by sliding it in as
shown (see the installation diagram provided).
• Start your vehicle.
• Connect the cigarette lighter cable to your ViaMichelin Navigation X-930 (by plugging
the cable into the mini-USB port under the device) then into your vehicle’s cigarette lighter socket.
2.2. Installing the software
ViaMichelin Navigation is a “Plug & Drive” solution: Simply insert the memory card provided into the slot on the top of your PND (Personal Navigation Device) then follow the installation instructions displayed on your screen: rights, choice of the interface language, voice guidance language, 2D or 3D map display, etc.
ViaMichelin Navigation is now ready to guide you!
Comments:
• Make sure that your SD is not in the “Lock” position, as this may prevent ViaMichelin Navigation functioning properly (“Lock” position protects the contents of your SD card, but this also prevents the ViaMichelin programs from saving the information required for the software to run properly).
• Make sure the X-930 is also not in the "Lock" position. The button on the right of the SD card slot must be positioned with the "padlock logo" open.
• Do not delete any of the data stored on your ViaMichelin Navigation SD card.
• Do not add any further data to your ViaMichelin Navigation SD card.
• Do not insert your SD card into another PDA or PND: this may damage its contents.
Detailed instructions for installing the DVD-ROM are given in Chapter 7 of this manual.

2.3. Activating the GPS
After connecting the ViaMichelin Navigation X-930 and installing the software on the SD card, press the 3
rd
button from top on the front. This will take you directly to the GPS
settings page:
• The green "V" means that the GPS is on.
• "
NO FIX/FIX: 2D/FIX: 3D" indicates better signal reception, and therefore more accurate
positioning.
• "
SAT" indicates the number of satellites used to calculate your position.
• The vertical bars show the satellites detected:
- Grey: the device is receiving satellite signals but is not yet using them to establish
your position.
- Green: the device is using the satellite signals to calculate your position.
• The numbers under the vertical bars give the satellite number.
• Coordinates: longitude and latitude calculated by the system.
• Direction arrow: shows the direction of travel between 2 position calculations by the GPS.
When using the ViaMichelin Navigation X-930 for the first time, we recommend you do so in an open space in order to ensure the best possible satellite reception. Activating the GPS system for the first time can take several minutes, depending on the surroundings and GPS signal reception.
