NITIAL SET-UP
The following guides you step by step through the initial set up of the navigation system.
Firstly, remove the foil for protecting the device during transpor­tation from the display.
S
TEP 1: SWITCHING ON THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM
Switch the main switch on the back of the device to ON.
Attention: Always leave the main switch in the ON Position,
unless you want to carry out a new reinstallation. All data will be lost and the initial installation will have to be carried out again if the switch is set to OFF.
The Navigation System will start the initial installation automati­cally. The brand logo will appear and your device will display the application screen after a few seconds. Follow the onscreen in­structions. You can already install the navigation software using the prepared memory card now (see also page 29).
Attention: It can be necessary for the device to have to be
charged for some time, before the initial setting up can run through, according to the charging status of the accumulator installed.

HARGING BATTERY OF THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM
You have different possibilities to charge the battery of your navi­gation system:
With the help of the network adapter By means of the car adapter
The charging status display lights orange until the navi-
tation system is charged. Do not interrupt the charging process before the battery is fully charged. This may take a few hours. The navigation system is fully charged if the charging display lights green.
Note: You can use the navigation system during the
charging process, but the power supply must not be inter­rupted during initial set-up.
Leave the mains adapter connected to the navigation sys-
tem for around 24 hours, so that the backup battery also charges-up fully.
You can leave the main adapter connected, and this is
very handy for continuous operation. However, the mains adapter also requires power even when it is not charging up the battery of the navigation system.

ORKING WITH MEMORY CARDS
Your navigation system supports MMC and SD memory cards.
I
NSERTING MEMORY CARDS
1. Carefully take the memory card out of its packing (if in­cluded). Take care not to touch or dirty the contacts.
2. Push the memory card carefully into the card bay as shown. The side of the memory card wearing the label must point upwards. The memory card should slightly lock in place.
R
EMOVING MEMORY CARDS
Do not remove the memory card while it is accessed. This
could result in loss of data.
1. To remove the card press lightly onto the upper edge until it ejects.
2. Pull the card out without touching the contacts.
3. Store the memory card in the packing or in another safe location.
Memory cards are very fragile. Take care not to dirty the
contacts and not to force the card.
G
ETTING STARTED
17
A
CCESSING MEMORY CARDS
The appliance only supports memory cards in the FAT16/32 file
format. If you insert a card prepared with a different format (e.g. in cameras, MP3 players), your navigation system may not recognize it and will ask you to format it again. Warning: Formatting the memory card irretrievably wipes out all data.
Likewise you cannot just copy files onto the memory card. In
some cases they must be converted by the Microsoft®
ActiveSync® program.
D
ATA EXCHANGE VIA CARD READER
You can transfer or synchronise data via ActiveSync®. This is also the correct method, in particular, if files are to be transferred that must be converted into a navigation system-readable format.
However, if you wish to copy large quantities of data (MP3 files, navigation maps) to the memory card, these can also be stored directly to the memory card.
Many computers already have memory card devices. Insert the card in this and copy the data directly to the card.
Because of the direct access significantly faster transfer will be achieved.

R
ESETTING THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM
There are two options for resetting the navigation system.
S
OFT RESET
This option restarts the navigation system, without reinstallation being necessary. A soft-reset is often used in order to reorganize the memory. In doing so all programs that are running are inter­rupted and the working memory is reinitialized. Choose this option if your navigation system is not responding or working properly. Perform the soft-reset as follows:
Screw off the end cap of the pointer and carefully press the point of the end cap into the Reset opening on the left side of your device.
H
ARD RESET
Warning: A hard-reset deletes all data on your appliance and
causes a new initial installation. It is not necessary to install the software on your synchronisation computer again, however. Perform the hard-reset as follows:
Push the On/Off switch on the back of the device to the OFF posi­tion initially and back to ON after 2 seconds.

T
IPS FOR NAVIGATION
Do not manipulate the navigation system while driving
to protect yourself and others from accidents!
In the event that you do not understand the voice instruc-
tion or if you are in any doubt about what to do at the next intersection, then the map or arrow display will provide you with a quick orientation. Only look at the display when you are in a safe driving situation!
Attention: The road layout and driving rules take prece-
dence over the instructions of the navigation system. Only
follow the instructions when circumstances and driving rules permit it! The navigation system will guide you to your desti­nation even when you have to deviate from your planned route.
The direction statements of the navigation system given do
not release the driver of the vehicle from his or her duty of care or personal responsibility.
Plan routes before you leave. If you want to plan a new
route whilst on the road stop driving.
In order to receive the GPS signal correctly, metal objects
may not hinder reception. Attach the navigation system onto the inside of the windscreen or near the windscreen with the sucker. Try out different positions in your vehicle in order to find the best reception.

GPS (G
GPS is a satellite-backed system for determining your position. With the help of 24 satellites revolving around the earth, it is pos­sible to determine your position on earth with the accuracy of a few meters. The satellite signals are received by the antenna of the built-in GPS receiver, which must have a "line of sight" to at least 4 of these.
Note: By limited line of sight (e.g. in tunnels, between
houses, in woods or also in vehicles with metal-coated win­dows) it is not possible to determine the position. The satellite reception however automatically picks up again as soon as the obstacle has been passed and there line of sight is reestab­lished again. Moving slowly (e.g. slow walking) also limits the accuracy of the navigation.
The GPS receiver consumes additional power. This is especially of concern, when running on batteries. To conserve power do not turn on the GPS receiver unnecessarily.
However, you can also switch the device off by means of the On/Off switch in the case of a shorter interruption to your jour­ney. Pressing the same switch again will activate a restart. The GPS receiver will also be reactivated at the same time, if naviga­tion software is still active. Here, it can take a short time for the position to be updated again, according to the reception situation.
LOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM
)
Note: Please note, that your appliance is preset to not shut
down automatically after a few minutes without activity. You can change this preset in the Settings mode.
If the GPS receiver has not been active for some hours, it
must orientate itself again. This process may take a while.

IRST-AID IN THE EVENT OF MALFUNCTION
Error functions can sometimes have trivial causes; however, they can also sometimes be complex in nature and require costly analysis.
G
ENERAL GUIDANCE
The regular running of the Windows® programs “Defrag” and
“Scandisk” on the PC can remove sources of error and raise system performance.
C
HECK CONNECTIONS AND CABLES
Start with a careful visual check of all cable links. If the LCD’s are not working, make sure that the power is reaching the computer and all peripherals.
Switch off the computer and check all cable links. If the com-
puter is connected to peripherals, check also the plug connec­tions of all cables. Do not arbitrarily swap the cables between various units, even if they appear to be precisely the same. The pin assignments of the cables are likely to be different. Once you have ascertained that the power supply is not at fault and all connections are intact, switch on the computer again.

AULTS AND POSSIBLE CAUSES
The navigation system no longer reacts or is behaving atypically. Press the reset button (see page 12, ).
The navigation system is recognized only as a guest by ActiveSync®. See informationen on page 31.
I am receiving error messages from a maintenance program after installing ActiveSync®.
The program places the WCESCOMM.LOG file in a tempo-
rary directory defined by the system, which cannot be de­leted. A respective error message will appear, if another program attempts to do so.
The GPS receiver cannot be initialized or found.
If a GPS signal continues not to be reported on the screen, in spite of the correct installation of the system, this can be caused by the fol­lowing factors:
The GPS receiver is configured to a different connection
than the COM2 port of the device. Solution: Überprüfen Sie die GPS-Einstellungen und korrigieren Sie diese ggf.
Also use the GPS test function offered to do this. Sufficient satellite reception is not possible.
Solution: Change the position of your navigation system and ensure that
unrestricted “sight” of the aerial is not impaired. No language statements can be heard.
Check the volume setting.
