while driving.
Caution! Do not look at the display unless it is absolutely safe to do so!
- 8 - Before you begin
User’s manual NAVIGON 33xx | 43xx max
Caution! Traffic regulations have priority over any instructions from the
navigation system.
Caution! Follow the instructions of the navigation system only when the
circumstances and the road traffic regulations allow you to do so! The
navigation system will still guide you to your destination even if you
deviate from the calculated route.
Caution! Check that the cradle is secured and adjusted properly before
each journey.
Note: If you have not understood the spoken instructions or are unsure
about what to do next, you can refer briefly to the map or schematic
view of your navigation system.
2.3.2 Safety information for the navigation device
Caution! Protect the device from moisture. The device is neither
waterproof nor protected against splash water.
Caution! Do not open the case of the navigation device under any
circumstances.
Caution! Do not expose the navigation device to extreme heat or cold.
This may damage the device or impair its function. (Refer to "Technical
data" on p
Caution! Never unplug by pulling the cable. Doing so could severely
damage or destroy the device.
Note: Do not kink the cable. Make sure that the cable cannot be
damaged by sharp-edged objects.

2.3.3 Safety guidelines when installing the device in your car
Caution! Fasten the cradle so that the navigation device is easy to see
and operate by the driver. Make sure that the driver's view of the traffic
is not impeded.
Caution! Do not attach the cradle within the working zone of any
airbags.
Caution! Do not fasten the cradle too close to the steering wheel or
other controls. The driver must not be obstructed in operating any car
functions.
Caution! When installing the cradle, make sure that it will not pose a
risk in the event of an accident.
Caution! Do not run cables directly next to safety-relevant devices and
power supplies.
Caution! Check that the cradle is secured and adjusted properly before
each journey. The suction cup may become loose after a while.
Caution! After installation, check all safety-relevant equipment in the
car.
Caution! Connect the car charger cable only to cigarette lighters with
an operating voltage of 10-24V.
Caution! Disconnect the car charger cable from the cigarette lighter
whenever you park the car. The integrated mains adapter always
consumes a small amount of energy and could drain the car battery.

On the back of the NAVIGON 33xx | 43xx max you will see a circle
with two recesses.
1. Hang the navigation device by the upper recess on the upper lug of
the cradle. (See illustration)
2. Then press it towards the cradle so that it latches in place.
Supplying power to the navigation device
Included in delivery of the NAVIGON 33xx | 43xx max is a car charger
cable with 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.
(illustration similar)
Note: Plug the USB connector into the navigation device as far it will
go! (Refer to "Troubleshooting" on page 76.)
Caution! Connect the car charger cable only to cigarette lighters with
an operating voltage of 10-24V.
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.
Note: It takes approx. 3-4 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.
Removing the navigation device from the cradle
On the bottom of the plate in which you hung the navigation device is a
clip.
- 12 - Before you begin
1. Pull the clip towards yourself so that the device is released from the
clip.
2. Lift the device up and out of the cradle.
2.4.2 TMC antenna
The NAVIGON 33xx | 43xx max 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.
2.4.3 Memory card
NAVIGON 33xx max, NAVIGON 4310 max:
A memory card is not required to operate the navigation system
because all the data are stored in the internal memory of the device. 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
card). The navigation device can use navigation maps from both
memories.
NAVIGON 4350 max:
The scope of delivery includes a 2 GB microSD card containing the
navigation maps.
The memory card must be inserted in order to be able to use the
navigation application:
1. Insert the memory card into the device.
2. Press the card into the device until it locks into place.
Note: When you connect the NAVIGON 33xx | 43xx max 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 a
removable disc.
Note: 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

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.
Before you begin - 13 -
User’s manual NAVIGON 33xx | 43xx max
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.

"The navigation software on this device is designed to provide route
suggestions and does not replace the need for driver attentiveness or
the requirement to adhere to road traffic regulations, good driving
practice and legally posted directions. For safety, posted road signs and
directions should always take precedence over the directions of this

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.
Navigation - 23 -
User’s manual NAVIGON 33xx | 43xx max
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
20 minutes to initialise the GPS receiver for the first time.
Note: If the GPS
symbol indicates GPS Ready after far less than
20 minutes, it is advisable to leave the navigation device switched on
for at least another 15 minutes in order to ensure reliable operation of
the receiver.
Each time you switch on the navigation device after this, GPS reception
will start within a short time.
If the navigation device has not been switched on for more than a week,
it can take up to 10 minutes to re-initialise the receiver.
