The charge indicator glows amber when charging is in progress. Do not
disconnect your device until the battery is fully charged, when the charge
indicator turns green. This will take a couple of hours.
CAUTION: For optimal performance of the lithium battery, take note of the
following:
Do not charge the battery where the temperature is high (e.g. in direct
sunlight).
There is no need to fully discharge the battery before charging. You can
charge the battery before it is discharged.
If you will not use the product for a long period of time, be sure to fully
charge the battery at least once every two weeks. Over discharge of the
battery can affect the charging performance.

Using the Car Holder
CAUTION:
Select an appropriate location for the car holder. Never place the holder
where the driver’s field of vision is blocked.
The car holder consists of a bracket and a stand. Use the car holder to fix
your device in a vehicle. Make sure that the GPS antenna has a clear view
of the sky.
4
Connecting the Car Charger
The car charger supplies power to your device when you are using the
device in a car.
CAUTION: To protect your device against sudden surges in current,
connect the car charger only after the car engine has been started.
1. Connect one end of the car charger
to the power connector of your
device.
2. Connect the other end to the
cigarette lighter in the car to power
and charge your device.

Troubleshooting and
2 Troubleshooting and Maintenance
Maintenance
2.1 Resetting Your System
Occasionally, you may need to reset your device. For example, you should
reset your system when it stops responding; or appears to be “frozen” or
“locked up.”
Insert a small rod, such as a straightened paperclip, into the reset button
on the bottom of your device. This is called a “soft reset.”
2.2 Troubleshooting
Power Problems
Power does not turn on when using battery power
The remaining battery power may be too low to run your device.
Charge the battery.
13
Screen Problems
Screen responds slowly
Make sure that your device is not running out of battery power. If the
problem still exists, reset your system.
Screen freezes
Reset your system.
Screen is hard to read
Make sure that the backlight of the display is on.
Move to a location with more light.
Inaccurate response to taps
Recalibrate the touch screen.
Connection Problems
Cable Connection Problems
Make sure that your device and your computer are both turned on
before trying to establish a connection.
Make sure that the cable is securely plugged into the USB port on your
computer and on the device. Connect the USB cable directly to your
computer—do not run the cable through a USB hub.
Reset your device before connecting the cable. Always disconnect
your device before you restart your computer.
2.3 Maintaining Your Device
Taking good care of your device will ensure trouble-free operation and
reduce the risk of damage to your device.
Keep your device away from excessive moisture and extreme
temperatures.
14
Avoid exposing your device to direct sunlight or strong ultraviolet light
for extended periods of time.
Do not place anything on top of your device or drop objects on your
device.
Do not drop your device or subject it to severe shock.
Do not subject your device to sudden and severe temperature
changes. This could cause moisture condensation inside the unit,
which could damage your device. In the event of moisture
condensation, allow the device to dry out completely before use.
Take care not to sit on the device. We advise not to carry the device in
one’s back pocket for that reason.
The screen surface can easily be scratched. Avoid touching it with
sharp objects. Non-adhesive generic screen protectors designed
specifically for use on portable devices with LCD panels may be used
to help protect the screen from minor scratches.
Never clean your device with it powered on. Use a soft, lint-free cloth
moistened with water to wipe the screen and the exterior of your
device.
Do not use paper towels to clean the screen.
Never attempt to disassemble, repair or make any modifications to
your device. Disassembly, modification or any attempt at repair could
cause damage to your device and even bodily injury or property
damage and will void any warranty.
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or explosive materials in
the same compartment as your device, its parts or accessories.
