1.5 Quick Start Method

1. Plug in the WorldNav 3100 to the 12v car power lighter in your vehicle. In order to charge the unit while driving, plug the power cord into the hole on the bottom right side of the GPS. The GPS will charge when your car is on. If the WorldNav does not turn on immediately, press the Reset button located on the back of the GPS. The reset button will not erase any of your saved history or points.

2. Your WorldNav includes a pre-configured Secure

Digital card with maps and points of interest pre-installed. The card has already been inserted into the GPS. Removing the card will result in the GPS becoming non-operational. If in addition you have purchased an expansion SD Card, to insert your Secure Digital Card in the side of the GPS, make sure the metal connection points on the card match with those visible inside the device. To remove the card press down on the card, it will pop up and you can then remove the card from the slot.
