A fully charged battery enables up to 3 hours of use depending on the
device configuration.
TMC ante nna
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.
2.4.3 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
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.

The following message appears: "You are sending 'Floating Car
Data' to NAVIGON in anonymised form. The evaluation of these
data will help us, our affiliates, and our partners in calculating times
of arrival more precisely, in recognizing traffic congestion sooner,
and in planning alternative routes more reliably. No information
about your person can be derived from the data. If you do not

(e.g. Fuel Live or Events Live) will be available only when the
navigation device has GPS reception and can determine its position.
2.6 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 positi on, t his positi on
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.
Before you begin - 15 -
User’s manual NAVIGON 72 Easy | 72 Plus | 72 Plus Live | 72 Premium
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.
