6. Installation of the GPS antenna
Possible installation positions
•Outside the vehicle
a. Attach the antenna to a flat, pre-washed metal surface.
b. Then guide the antenna cable into the vehicle interior.
GRisk of injury
People with pacemakers should avoid physical contact with the magnetic antenna and should not carry the antenna
on their person, as this may affect the function of the pacemaker.
Keep the magnetic antenna away from data storage media (disks, credit cards, magnetic cards etc.) and electronic
and precision engineering equipment, as this may cause data to be deleted.
Do not use the antenna in areas at risk of explosion.
It is important to secure the antenna so that it cannot become detached in a collision or sudden brake manoeuvre.
GRisk of injury
The maximum vehicle speed for the antenna if magnetically attached is 180 km/h. The antenna must be removed or
specially secured at higher speeds.
The antenna is not suitable for car-wash facilities.

12. Calibration
After commissioning, a calibration journey is required. During the jour-
ney, the speed signal (GAL) is automatically adapted to the
vehicle-specific data and the gyro sensor is automatically adapted
to the installation position of the unit.
The distance to be covered depends on the type of vehicle and the local
conditions.
• The adjacent display appears after the language installation.
It is possible that GPS reception has deteriorated as a result of
changing the vehicle position and due to obstructions. In this case,
the adjacent display appears.
The navigation system is only ready for operation on comple-
tion of the calibration journey. The main navigation menu is
displayed. Final precision is only achieved after a further jour-
ney.
Adequate GPS reception must be ensured for the calibration
ride. This means at least 2-D FIX. With GPS FIX 3-D the cali-
bration will be quicker. However: a lower accuracy of the GPS
signal (2-D FIX) does not lead to a poorer calibration, but in-
stead will mean that the time and distance needed for the cali-
bration will increase.

quest ! !! does not appear,
then you should check the GPS reception conditions again (as under
Service Mode in the Section Function test of GPS antenna ( 
)46).
As soon as the display with the request !
!! appears, the calibration ride can be started.
• The basic requirement for a calibration ride is: driving 200 - 300
metres in a straight line, then turning by at least 60 degrees
and then driving 200- 300 metres in a straight line again, and
turning again.
A calibration ride can also be performed in a non-digitised area.
The insertion of the Navigation CD is not absolutely necessary
after the navigation software has been installed. Without the
Navigation CD inserted, no location is displayed.
The direction you turn is of no significance. If these conditions
cannot be fulfilled due to the road or the fact that you do not al-
ways have optimum GPS reception, this will not lead to a poor-
er calibration, but will simply mean the time and distance
necessary for the calibration ride will be longer.
If the unit is switched off during the calibration ride, language
installation is requested when the unit is switched on again. Re-
installation can be skipped by pressing the button.
