Safety information on handling the PNA
Caution: As it is neither splash proof nor waterproof, do not expose your navigation device to water! For example, protect it from rain, snow or hail when you are on your way by bike or on foot. Caution: Disconnect the navigation device from the power supply when you are leaving the car parked for a long period of time. Failure to do so might result in a dead battery since the internal GPS receiver constantly consumes electricity. Note: Do not use any harsh solvents for cleaning the PNA. A damp, lint-free cloth is sufficient! Note: Do not unplug by pulling the cable. This might damage the cable!
Safety information on the installation in the vehicle
Caution: Do not fix the holder within the deployment zone of airbags. Caution: When you install the holder, please check that it may not constitute any safety risk, even in case of an accident.

We do, however, recommend that you install additional applications like GoPal Assistant or Ado be Acrobat Reader to be able to take advantage of the corresponding functions. In addition, it may be necessary, due to a malfunction, for you to reinstall various software components for your navigation system after the fact. This procedure is described in Chapter 5: Manual installation and start-up and Chapter 6: Installation and start-up using the GoPal Assistant.

System requirements

Your mobile navigation system can be connected to a conventional Windows personal computer to install (after the fact) application data such as the navigation software, additional map material etc. Your PC must meet the following system requirements for smooth communication. Supported operating systems Windows 2000 from SP4, Windows XP & Vista
Hardware specifications of the current computer generation, minimum 128 RAM, min. one available USB 1.1 port Card-Reader for SD/MMC media recommended Necessary additional software: Microsoft ActiveSync (only Windows 2000/XP) for operation as mobile device with your PC, GoPal Assistant for automatic data transfer between navigation device and PC (as needed)
If you are working with the Microsoft Windows Vista operating system, you do not need the ActiveSync communication software. The system files required for the data transfer TM are already integrated into your Vista operating system. Please connect your device to your PC using the USB cable supplied: Once your navigation device has been detected as a new device, the required drivers will be installed automatically. After it has been installed successfully, your new device is shown under Removable Devices on the Windows Explorer screen. If you have saved additional data to your navigation device, ensure that there is sufficient capacity available when transferring the data. If there is not enough space, remove unneeded files. If your PC meets these requirements, you can connect your navigation device to an available USB port on your PC using the USB cable supplied to exchange data.
Conventions in this manual
The operation of your navigation system is directly based on the user guide in application software for a PC. That means that entries in the software can be visually displayed on the screen and executed from there. The operation itself is different: While functions on your PC are performed by clicking the mouse, you can operate your navigation device either by using the stylus supplied or by direct manual entry on the touch-sensitive screen of your navigation device. So, the following applies for the following descriptions: For entries that you perform with the mouse on your PC, we use the term "click" For entries using the stylus or a finger on the touchscreen of your navigation device, we use the term "type/tap". At various points in this manual we refer to entries within a software application or to a path on your PC/memory card. In the following descriptions, these references are indicated as follows: Entries taken from the software (like buttons, menu items or labels for check boxes) are in bold. Specific functions and programs of your navigation system (e. g. MP3 Player etc.) or PC (e. g. Windows Explorer etc.) are italicised. Information about directories and paths (on the external SD card or on the flash memory of your navigation device) are italicised. The information in this manual documents the operation of the navigation software, explains the 3

graphic display on the screen of your navigation device and lists the available selection options for individual functions. So, the following applies for the following descriptions: Descriptions pertaining to executing a function are listed numerically, thus defining the order of the individual steps. Descriptions referring to various elements in a software window or similar, are also listed numerically, but in colour. Descriptions listing various equivalent options (as in this case), are indicated with bullet points.

Tips and warnings

At various places in this manual we give you practical tips or refer to circumstances which could disrupt the smooth running of your navigation system. These sections are indicated as follows in the following descriptions.
This symbol draws your attention to functions and features that speed up your work flow and facilitate the operation of your navigation system.
This symbol indicates functions and features that are essential to the operation of your navigation system. Please obey all information to avoid malfunctions through operating error or incorrect entries.

Important information

The following contains important information regarding the operation of your navigation system. This information is repeated in the form of comments and tips at appropriate places in this manual. For safety reasons, entries may not be made by the driver whilst driving: Please make the necessary entries before beginning the journey. If you need to change your entries during the journey, stop your vehicle at a suitable point (parking spot etc.). Vehicle windscreens made of Thermoglas or metalised windscreens considerably limit the GPS reception. There is usually a special opening in this metallic coating, behind which the navigation device can be placed. If that is not the case, a commercially-available GPS antenna must be mounted outside the passenger cabin (e. g. on the roof of the vehicle). The instructions for the navigation system are recommendations only: Always pay attention to road traffic regulations. Please note that your navigation device must receive a valid GPS signal in order to calculate the route from the current position. Please note that your navigation device must be set to the local time zone to be able to calculate the correct time of arrival for future route calculations. You can also follow your current position on the map without entering a destination. If available, the name of the street you are currently on will be displayed Note that temporary local changes and/or restrictions to road traffic regulations (e. g. permitted maximum speed) cannot be accounted for in the route planning: Always obey signage and/or local traffic routing. Please note that the map material is current as of the time of delivery. However, the manufacturer cannot guarantee the information to be completely binding or that it corresponds to the road layout and/or signage.

This manual only describes the operation of your navigation software. Information about operating the other functions on your navigation system can be found in the device manual.
