which power can be supplied to the navigation device via the vehicle's
cigarette lighter.
►Connect the car charger cable to the vehicle's cigarette lighter and
to the mini USB socket of the navigation device.
The LED on the bottom of the navigation device lights up orange during
charging.
As soon as the battery is fully charged, the LED lights up green.
Caution! Connect the car charger cable only to cigarette lighters with
an operating voltage of 10-24V.
Note: It takes approx. 3 hours to charge the device when the battery is
flat.
A fully charged battery enables up to 2 hours of use depending on the
device configuration.
TMC antenna
The navigation device has an integrated TMC receiver. The TMC
antenna is integrated in the car charger cable. Once the car charger
cable is connected, the device can receive current traffic messages. If
Before you begin - 13 -
User's manual NAVIGON 20 EASY | 20 PLUS
required, it can change your route dynamically, e.g. in order to avoid a
traffic jam.
2.4.4 Memory card
A memory card is not required to operate the navigation system
because all the data needed for navigation are stored in the internal
memory of the device.
When you connect the navigation system to your computer using a USB
cable, the internal memory is detected as the 'NAVIGON' drive. The slot
for the memory card is detected as the 'NAVIGON SD' drive.
Data backups, software updates and navigation map updates can be
carried out quickly and conveniently with the NAVIGON Fresh software,
which you can download free of charge from the website
www.navigon.com/fresh.
If you purchase additional navigation maps but no longer have enough
space for them in the internal memory of your navigation device, it is
also possible for you to save these maps on a memory card which you
then insert in the device. The navigation system can use navigation
maps from both memories.
Only NAVIGON 20 PLUS:
In the case of devices with a DVD included in the delivery package it is
not possible to save all the maps in the internal memory of the
navigation device. On the DVD you will find all the maps you have
purchased along with other items. To use the maps with your navigation
system, save them on a memory card. This can be done quickly and
conveniently with the NAVIGON Fresh software, which you can install
on your PC from the supplied DVD.
2.5 Navigating with GPS
GPS is based on a total of at least 24 satellites orbiting the Earth and
continuously transmitting signals of their position and time. The GPS
receiver receives this data and calculates its own geographical position
on the basis of the information transmitted by the various satellites.
Data from at least three satellites is required for positioning with an
acceptable degree of accuracy. With data from four or more satellites it
is possible in addition to determine the position's altitude above sea
level. Positioning is accurate to within three metres.
Once the navigation device has determined your position, this position
can be used as a starting point for calculating a route.
The map data on your navigation device includes the geographical
coordinates of all digitally recorded points of interest, streets and
places. This enables the device to calculate a route between a starting
point and a destination.
- 14 - Before you begin
User's manual NAVIGON 20 EASY | 20 PLUS
Calculation of the current position and its representation on the map
take place approximately once every second. In other words, your
current position is always shown on the map.

Initialising the GPS receiver
Note: Good reception of GPS data requires an unobstructed path from
the GPS receiver to the satellites. Tunnels, narrow thoroughfares
between buildings and reflecting house fronts can restrict GPS
reception greatly or make it impossible. If the GPS receiver or the
navigation device is inside a vehicle, a metallised windscreen or a
windscreen heater can be the cause of poor GPS reception.
As soon as the navigation device has been switched on, initialisation of
the GPS receiver will begin.
The integrated GPS receiver is not initialised for the first time until the
navigation application is started for the first time. It can take up to
5 minutes to initialise the GPS receiver for the first time.

When the MyRoutes function is activated, the navigation system
calculates up to three routes on the basis of the currently selected route
profile and shows them on the map in different colours (orange, green,
blue) and with a number. For each route there is a button with the same
number and a symbol in the same colour.
When calculating the time of arrival or the trip time, the navigation
system takes account of additional factors such as day of the week,
time of day and particularly your previous driving profile.
The route which corresponds best to the selected route profile is
marked with "MyRoute".
Note: The MyRoutes function can be used only for routes with only one
route point. For routes with two or more route points only one route is
calculated and displayed, regardless of whether you have activated the
function or not.

You can create files with your own POIs. These files have to be made
available to your navigation system in a specific folder.
If you want to choose from your own POIs, you will find them under the
MyPOIs category of POIs. Each file with your own POIs is listed as a
sub-category. Each sub-category can have a personally created symbol
for representing your destinations on the map.
Note: The navigation device can import a maximum of 1,000 POIs.
These destinations are allowed to be shared among a maximum of
40 sub-categories.
8.2.1 Creating your own destinations

8.2.2 Symbols for your own POIs
For each sub-category of your own POIs you can create a symbol
which is used to represent the destinations of this sub-category on the
map.
These symbols must be graphic files with the following characteristics:
► File format bmp (Bitmap) or png (Portable Network Graphic)
► Size max. 40x25 pixels
The graphic files must be saved in the same folder as the files with the
POIs.
The file name must be the same as the name of the category.
Example:
Destinations of the XYZ sub-category are saved in the 'XYZ.csv' file.
They are represented on the map by the 'XYZ.bmp'symbol.

dynamically, for example in order to avoid a traffic jam.
Note: TMC is available free of charge in many European countries.
PremiumTMC, promising a faster and more up-to-date service, is
offered (exclusively or in addition) in some countries at a charge.
