2.1 Installing the software
2.1.1 Inserting the memory card into the device
Insert the memory
card into the device… Before using MobileNavigator you must insert the memory card containing the cartographic data into the device.
1. Unpack the memory card carefully. Pay attention not to touch
contacts and not to make them dirty.
2. Hold the memory card as shown below (label up, cut corner
bottom right). Insert the memory card into the respective slot
on the top of the device. It should snap in.
Note: The memory card must stay inserted in the device while
you are using the navigation system. If you remove the card
while using the system, it executes a soft reset and prompts you
to insert the memory card.
2.1.2 Installing the navigation software
Install the navigation
software... 1. Use the pen to slide the main switch on the bottom of the device to ON.
The brand logo is being displayed for a short time. The
installation procedure starts automatically. After a few
seconds, the registration wizard starts which guides you
through the registration procedure.
Note: Depending on the battery charging state, it may happen
that you have to charge the device for a while before the
installation may be executed.
