Setting up your GPS
Charging the battery
Your portable GPS comes with a built-in rechargeable battery. Charge the
battery fully before using your GPS for the first time. Charging time is
normally about three hours. A fully charged battery delivers about two
hours of use.
Inserting an SD memory card
Your GPS has a secure digital (SD) card slot.
To insert and remove an SD memory card:
1Hold the memory card with the label facing the same direction as the
screen, contacts in, then carefully insert it into the SD card slot until it
clicks into place.
Caution
Always make sure that the GPS and any other external device
connected to the GPS are turned off and unplugged from the
power supply before you attempt to connect the GPS to any
external device.
Warnings
• The battery must be charged by using the supplied
adapters.
• The battery should only be used and charged when
temperatures are between 32°~100°F. Maintain
well-ventilated conditions around your GPS to avoid
overheating. Do not put the GPS on a bed, sofa, or anything
that may block ventilation to the product.
• When the battery is weak, a “low battery” symbol
appears on the LCD screen and the GPS automatically turns
off.

the GPS.
