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.
Adjusting the cradle
On the back of the cradle is an adjusting screw which can be used to adjust the cradle.
To make adjustments you need a matching Allen key (2.5 mm).
Make the adjustments in steps, i.e. turn the screw in or out by no
more than a quarter of a turn and test the effect.
Caution! Overtightening the adjusting screw can cause damage to the cradle!
User’s manual NAVIGON 8410 PREMIUM EDITION | 8450 LIVE PREMIUM EDITION
Before you begin - 17 -

On the back of the navigation device 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.
Removing the navigation device from the cradle
On the bottom of the plate in which you hung the navigation device is a clip.
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.
Supplying power to the navigation device
Included in delivery of the navigation device is a car charger cable with which power can be supplied to the navigation device via the vehicle's cigarette lighter.
Caution! If you have purchased a NAVIGON Live module separately,
please use only the car charger cable belonging to the scope of delivery
of the NAVIGON Live module! (Refer to "Selecting the right car charger
cable" on page 18
.)
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.
User’s manual NAVIGON 8410 PREMIUM EDITION | 8450 LIVE PREMIUM EDITION
- 18 - Before you begin
Note: Insert the USB connector securely in the corresponding USB sockets!
Caution! Be sure to refer to all the safety information in chapter "Important safety information" on page 12.
Note: It takes approx. 3 hours to charge the device when the battery is flat.
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.
2.6.4 Preparing the NAVIGON Live module for use
This section is relevant for you only if you have purchased a
NAVIGON Live module for your navigation device.
Selecting the right car charger cable
You have purchased a bundle comprising a navigation device and a NAVIGON Live module:
The bundle comes with the right car charger cable. Use this cable.
You have purchased the NAVIGON Live module as an add-on to an already existing navigation device:
The adapter in your existing charger cable may not have enough power
to supply both devices (the navigation system and the NAVIGON Live
module) with electricity.
Caution! Use only the car charger cable which was supplied with the
NAVIGON Live module! The car charger cable supplied with the NAVIGON Live module is
powerful enough for both devices.
Connecting the NAVIGON Live module to the navigation device
1. Connect the cable of the NAVIGON Live module to the USB socket
of the navigation device used for the power supply.
User’s manual NAVIGON 8410 PREMIUM EDITION | 8450 LIVE PREMIUM EDITION
Before you begin - 19 -
2. Connect the car charger cable to the vehicle's cigarette lighter and
to the mini-USB socket on the NAVIGON Live module. When you connect the NAVIGON Live module for the first time, the
navigation device will be restarted.
The module's NAVIGON logo lights up orange as soon as it is
supplied with electricity. At the same time it supplies power to the connected navigation device.
3. Make sure that the NAVIGON Live module lies on the dashboard
so that mobile radio reception is as good as possible.
2.6.5 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.
The memory card inserted in the navigation device contains additional data which are needed for comfort functions such as Real City 3D. You can copy these data to another memory card (microSD card) or save them on your PC.
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 using the NAVIGON Fresh software, which you can install on your computer with NAVIGON Suite

2.8 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.

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.
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 5 minutes to re-initialise the receiver.
Note: Directly after the GPS
symbol indicates the GPS Ready state,
the accuracy of the positioning may be reduced for a few minutes.
In the top right hand corner of the screen you will see the GPS symbol. As soon as data from at least three satellites is received, the symbol will
change to
(GPS Ready).

The route is calculated on the basis of a route profile. The current route profile is indicated at the top right edge of the map.
Route profiles take account of the characteristics and special aspects of the different modes of transport. For example a route profile for bicycles will exclude motorways from the route calculation but will include roads which other vehicles are not allowed to use. And a bicycle profile will calculate different arrival times than a motorcycle profile.
Note: If you select a pedestrian profile, a type of navigation specially developed for pedestrians will be started (refer to "Navigation in Pedestrian mode
" on page 71).

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: Even when the MyRoutes function is activated, sometimes only one additional route or no additional routes at all can be calculated for a particular route. No further suggestion
is then shown on the button in
question.

The starting point of a route is the point at which you want to begin your trip. This is not necessarily the current location. If you are planning a route for your holidays at home, you could, for example, enter your hotel as the starting point.
The starting point is only important if you want to see a planned route on the map but currently have no GPS reception, or if you are not currently at the planned starting point. This is why your selected starting point has the flow number "0".
As soon as you start navigation, your current location will be used as the starting point for the route calculation.
The first leg of the route is therefore the journey to the route point with flow number "1".

MyRoutes
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.
Note: Even when the MyRoutes function is activated, sometimes only one additional route or no additional routes at all can be calculated for a particular route. No further suggestion
is then shown on the button in
question.

10.1 Route profiles
Route profiles define the characteristics and special aspects of the different modes of transport which are to be taken into account when calculating routes. For example a route profile for bicycles will exclude motorways from the route calculation but will include roads which other vehicles are not allowed to use. And different arrival times will be calculated for a bicycle than for a motorcycle for example.

10.2 My POIs
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 10,000 POIs. These destinations are allowed to be shared among a maximum of 40 sub-categories.
10.2.1 Creating your own destinations
1. Open an empty document in an editor which can save the files in UTF8 code (e.g. MS Notepad, Microsoft Word).
Note: The following description is based on the use of MS Notepad as editor. If a different editor is used, the saving of the file and its UTF-8 coding (point 4- 9) may differ from this description.
2. For each destination create a data record (one line) with the following form:
Longitude. Begin the entry with a minus sign if you want to
enter a western degree of longitude. The longitude must be entered as a decimal number with a dot as the decimal sign.
Comma (as list separator)
Latitude. Begin the entry with a minus sign if you want to enter
a southern degree of latitude. The latitude must be entered as a decimal number with a dot as the decimal sign.
Comma (as list separator)
Name of the destination. Any name is possible, but no commas
are allowed. If the use of a comma is indispensable, precede it with a backslash ('\').

8. In the Encoding
box select the UTF-8 option.
9. Tap on Save
.
10.2.2 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 related 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.
10.2.3 POI-Import: Importing your own POIs onto the navigation device
The files you have created with your own POIs and the related symbols must still be transferred to the navigation device. This is easy and
convenient to do with the NAVIGON Fresh software which you can install on your computer using NAVIGON Suite or download free of

10.14 TMC (Traffic Information)
The integrated TMC receiver enables the navigation system to make use of current traffic messaging. If necessary it can change your route 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.
You can subscribe to PremiumTMC services on our website
1www.navigon.com.
If you have connected a NAVIGON Live module to your navigation device, you can receive traffic information from the NAVIGON Live
server. One of the server's functions is to evaluate anonymously
collected floating car data from the many users of NAVIGON Live
services. As the result, traffic jams can be detected and avoided more quickly and more reliably. The evaluation of floating car data also helps to calculate the estimated time of arrival more exactly.
If you disconnect the NAVIGON Live module from the navigation
device, you will no longer receive any traffic information.
In this case, reconnect the NAVIGON Live module or change the
Source of traffic information
setting to radio stations.
If you reconnect the NAVIGON Live module and the Source of
traffic information setting is at radio stations, you must change the setting back to NAVIGON Live services
(refer to "Configuring the
NAVIGON Live services" on page 128).
Note: The traffic information source being used by the navigation device is indicated by the symbol (TMC or Traffic Live) at the top right of the screen (refer to "Traffic Information" on page 26).

Red: The affected section of the route is fully blocked by the obstruction or involves a considerable loss of time (more than 30 minutes) to pass through. This can be the case for example when several lanes are blocked due to an accident.
Yellow: The section is not fully blocked by the obstruction but there is a threat of delays (10-30 minutes). This can be the case for example with slow-moving traffic.
No colour: The obstruction is not classified as serious. This can be the case for example when slow-moving traffic is reported on a very short section, when SOS telephones are not working or when parking areas are blocked off.
5 Here you can see how far you are from this obstruction. If the
obstruction does not lie on your route or if a detour route was already calculated for this obstruction, then the distance as the crow flies will be shown.
