Caution! Do not look at the screen unless it is absolutely safe to do so!

- 10 -

Before you begin

User’s manual NAVIGON Plus 70/71 | Premium 70/71 | Premium 70/71 LIVE

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.

2.3.2Safety 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 page 116.)

Caution! Never unplug by pulling the cable. Doing so could severely damage or destroy the device.

Caution! Do not subject the navigation device to severe temperature fluctuations. This can cause condensation to form.

Note: Do not kink the cable. Make sure that the cable cannot be damaged by sharp-edged objects.

Note: Create a backup of the data in the internal memory of your navigation device.

User’s manual NAVIGON Plus 70/71 | Premium 70/71 | Premium 70/71 LIVE

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.

2.4Preparing the navigation system for use

2.4.1SIM card

Securing the cradle

Before you begin

- 13 -

User’s manual NAVIGON Plus 70/71 | Premium 70/71 | Premium 70/71 LIVE

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.

Before you begin

User’s manual NAVIGON Plus 70/71 | Premium 70/71 | Premium 70/71 LIVE

Caution! Be sure to refer to all the safety information in chapter "Important safety information" on page 10.

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.

2.4.3Memory 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 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.

2.5Activating the NAVIGON Live services

This chapter is relevant for you only if your navigation device is a

NAVIGON Premium 70/71 LIVE.

The NAVIGON Live services must be activated before they are used for the first time. Then they can be used free of charge for 3 months. (Refer to "Costs" on page 109.)

You have inserted the SIM card.

The leaflet with the activation code which came with the NAVIGON Live module is to hand.

1. Switch on the navigation device.

Before you begin

- 15 -

User’s manual NAVIGON Plus 70/71 | Premium 70/71 | Premium 70/71 LIVE

The NAVIGATION window opens.

2.Tap on (NAVIGON Live).

You will be asked whether you want to activate the NAVIGON Live services.

3.Tap on Yes.

4.Enter the activation code.

5.Tap on Activate.

The NAVIGON Live services are now activated.

6.Tap on OK.

The following message appears: "You are sending 'Floating Car Data' to NAVIGON in anonymised form. The evaluation of these data will help in calculating times of arrival more precisely, in recognising 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 agree, select 'No' for the setting 'Optimise'."

7.Tap on OK.

The NAVIGATION window is opened. From here you have access to all the functions of your navigation device and all available NAVIGON Live services.

2.6Navigating 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.

User’s manual NAVIGON Plus 70/71 | Premium 70/71 | Premium 70/71 LIVE

The NAVIGATION window is opened. From here you can access all the functions of the navigation application.

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

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.

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).

Note: Initialisation takes the least time if you do not start driving until the initialisation has finished.

For more details about the GPS symbol refer to chapter "GPS" on page 19.

Returning to the Navigation window

The NAVIGATION window opens when the navigation application is started.

If another window of the navigation application is open, tap on (Back). This will return you to the window you came from.

►Tap on (Back) repeatedly until the NAVIGATION window is opened.
