Securing the cradle
1. Clean the suction cup and that part of the windscreen to which you want to secure the cradle. Both must be dry and free of dirt and grease.
2. Open the lever on the suction cup as far as possible.
3. Place the cradle suction cup against the windscreen.
4. Press the lever towards the windscreen.
Inserting the navigation device into the cradle
On the back of the navigation device you will see a circle with two recesses.

A fully charged battery enables up to 3 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 required, it can change your route dynamically, e.g. in order to avoid a traffic jam.

2.4.2 Memory card

A memory card is not required to operate the navigation system because all the data required 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 back-ups, 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.

User's manual NAVIGON 42 Essential
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 microSD which you then insert in the device. The navigation system can use navigation maps from both memories.

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.
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.

3 Switching on the navigation device

The navigation device can be in one of three states:
On: The navigation device is on and can be operated.
Standby: When you switch the navigation device to standby mode,
the next time it is switched on it will start very quickly and with the window which was active when switched off. In standby mode the device still consumes a small amount of energy however. Depending on how full the battery is, it can become flat within a few days or a few weeks.
Off: When you switch off the device, it consumes hardly any
energy. It can then take several months for the battery to become flat. Switching the device on again triggers a restart which can take some time (approx. 60 seconds). Your settings and your saved destinations and routes will be retained.
