Initial Set up
The following is a step by step guide to assist in the initial Set-up of the navigation system.
Start by removing the protective plastic sheet from the display.
I. Charging the Battery
The battery of your navigation system can be charged in the following ways:

Using the supplied car adapter,

using a suitable USB cable or

by using a mains adapter (purchased as an optional extra).
Attention!
It may be necessary to initially charge the battery for a considerable period
of time prior to commencing and running through the initial installation,
this is dependent on the level of charge held at the time by the internal
battery.
Please observe the following notes:

The charging status display LED will flash orange until the navigation system is
charged. If possible, do not interrupt the charging process until the
battery is fully charged. This may take a few hours. The charging status LED will
shine constant green if the battery has a high level of charge. Leave the device
charging for 20 further minutes, to ensure the battery is charged-up fully.

The navigation system can be used during the charging process, but the power
supply must not be interrupted during initial set-up.

Leave the external power supply connected to the navigation system for around
24 hours, so that the backup battery also charges-up fully.

The external power supply can remain connected; this is recommended for continuous operation.

Even after a power source has been connected to the device it may take several
minutes until the device is once again ready to operate again, this occurs if the
charging state of the battery is exceptionally low. The battery will continue to be
charged if the power supply is connected and the device is switched off.

lose contact while driving. This could cause a malfunction.
Alternative possibility of charging the battery
The battery will charge as soon as you connect your navigation device to a switched-on PC
or notebook by means of a USB cable.
No additional software or updates are required for your PC to perform this function. Do
not interrupt the charging process if possible during the initial charge.
Note
The brightness will be adjusted downwards, if necessary, if a USB connection is being set up when the device is switched on.
It is recommended to set the device to the stand-by mode, in order to
shorten the charging time by USB.

Safety Instructions for Navigation
The bundled product DVD contains a comprehensive instruction manual.
General Instructions

Do not manipulate the navigation system while driving to protect yourself and
others from accidents!

In the event that you do not understand the voice instruction or if you are in any
doubt about what to do at the next intersection, then the map or arrow display
will provide you with a quick orientation. Only look at the display when you are in
a safe driving situation!
Legal remark
The use of devices that warn for traffic monitoring systems (like speed
traps) is prohibited in some countries, like Germany, Ireland and Switzerland. Please obtain information about the legal situation and apply the
warning function only where allowed. We cannot be held liable for damages caused by the use of the warning function.
Attention!
The road layout and driving rules take precedence over the instructions
of the navigation system. Only follow the instructions when circumstances and driving rules permit it! The navigation system will guide you
to your destination even when you have to deviate from your planned
route.

The direction statements of the navigation system given do not release the driver of
the vehicle from his or her duty of care or personal responsibility.

Plan routes before you leave. If you want to plan a new route whilst on the road
pull over and stop driving.

In order to receive the GPS signal correctly, keep away from metal objects as they
may hinder reception. Attach the navigation system onto the inside of the windscreen or near the windscreen with the suction cup. Try out different positions in
your vehicle in order to find the best reception.

Notes for Use in a Vehicle

Take care that the holder does not present any risk to safety, even in the case of an
accident, when installing it.

Take care that the cable does not impede any safety components.

The display of your navigation system may show “light reflections”. Please take
care of not being “blinded” during operation.

Do not mount the components within the operating range of any airbags.

Check the secure adherence of the suction cup at regular intervals.

The power plug will consume power, even if no device is connected. Remove it
when not in use to avoid draining the car battery.

Check all safety equipment in your car after installation.
Note
Do not leave your navigation software in the vehicle when you leave it.
You should also uninstall the holder for security reasons.

IV. Starting the Navigation Software
Note
Your memory card will always have to be inserted into the device during
the use of the navigation system, if the card contains (additional) mapping
material.
It will be necessary to carry out a reset to restart the navigation system if
the memory card has been removed while the system was being used (see
page 21). According to the navigation system the reset is carried out
automatically.
1. Switch on your navigation system.
2. The Navigation software will start automatically or after tapping on the navigation control button on the main screen, according to the version.
3. Tap on Navigation on the screen for entering the destination. Enter the destination address. Confirm your entry by tapping the

Further information regarding the navigation software can be found on the comprehensive
manual on your DVD. This is a PDF-file you can read and print with any Acrobat Reader.
Note
The GPS-receiver will require some minutes for initialization when deployed for the first time. Even when GPS signal reception is indicated the
navigation could be imprecise. In all future instances it will take about 3060 seconds until a correct GPS-signal is available, sufficient “sight” of the
satellite is a prerequisite.

Appendix
Special CleanUp Function
The CleanUp function serves the targeted deletion of data, without using a PC.
Note
Please use this function very carefully, because it is possible for data to be
deleted that can only be entered again manually afterwards.
The CleanUp function is activated when the ‘o’ is pressed in the Gopal lettering of the
Main Menu, immediately after the start tone following a reset.
The CleanUp function offers 9 options:
1. Remove Installation Only
Removes the software installed from the ‘My Flash Disk’
memory [= part of the permanent memory in which the executable parts of the navigation
software will be located following the initial alignment (\My Flash Disk\Navigation)].
2. Remove MAP Only
Removes the digital maps from the ‘My Flash Disk’ memory (\My Flash
Disk\MapRegions).
3. Remove Preload Only
Removes the data needed for the installation of the navigation software from the permanent memory (\My Flash Disk\Install).
4. Remove All
Deletes the whole contents of the ‘My Flash Disk’ memory. It will not be necessary to
recalibrate the screen after this function has been carried out.
5. Factoryreset
Sets the device back to the delivery status in the case of an intact main installation.

6. Format Flash
Formats the internal ‘My Flash Disk’ memory. This formatting can be necessary in the case
of a prolonged removal of errors. It will be necessary to recalibrate the screen after the
formatting function has been carried out. All data will be deleted from the internal ‘My
Flash Disk’ memory irrevocably.
7. GPS Factory Reset
Performs a factory reset of the GPS receiver. When using the GPS function after having
performed a factory reset, the GPS receiver must orientate itself again. This process may
take a while.
8. DC AutoSuspend /Wakeup
You can select here when your navigation system should go into Standby mode automatically after the withdrawal of the external power supply. For example, this function is useful
in the case of vehicles where the cigarette lighter also switches off when the ignition is
switched off.
The AutoSuspend function will be activated several seconds after the discontinuation of
the external power supply and the Standby display will appear for the time set (see
Page 15).
The DC AutoSuspend function will be deactivated again if the power has been reconnected within the total period (in the case that the engine has been switched off for a short
time, for example). Otherwise, the navigation system will go into the Standby mode after
the expiry of the time set.
Set the required time by tapping on it and confirm your selection with OK.
Note
This function is deactivated and can be set individually in the status at
delivery and after a hard reset (see Page 22).

Note
The ActivSync® Mode will be loaded automatically after a few seconds if no
mode has been selected.
4. Select the required mode:
Mass Storage Mode
You will be able to use your navigation software as a removable disk (as a USB stick, for
example) in the Mass Storage Mode. Two drives will be connected to do this: the internal
memory of the navigation system itself and the (optional) memory card, provided that it
has been inserted into the device.
Note
No additional entries can be made on the device at the same time, if you
are in this Mode. Use the ‘Remove hardware safely’ function of your operating system to protect yourself against the loss of data. Then detach the
cable from your navigation system.
The Hardware Installation Assistant will now recognize a new device and will install a suitable driver. This can take several minutes.

(calls are charged at 7p per min from a standard landline, calls from mobiles could be higher)
ActiveSync® mode
Repeat the search for a connection if it has failed the first time, if you have selected the
ActiveSync® Mode.
Follow the instructions on your screen. The program will now set up a co-operation between your PC and the navigation software.
Note
The navigation system must have been recognized during the setting up
in the ActiveSync® Mode, in order to be able to work with the GoPal Assistant.
Alternative possibility of charging the battery
The battery will charge as soon as you connect your navigation device to a switched-on PC
or notebook by means of a USB cable.
No type of software or driver installation will be necessary for this. Do not interrupt the
charging process if possible during the initial charge.
Note
The brightness will be adjusted downwards, if necessary, if a USB connection is being set up when the device is switched on.
It is recommended to set the device to the stand-by mode, in order to
shorten the charging time by USB.

III. Working with Microsoft® ActiveSync®
ActiveSync® will be started automatically if you connect your navigation system to the PC.
The program will check whether the device is one with which a partnership has been entered. If this is the case, the changes that have taken place on the PC and on the navigation
system since the last synchronisation will be compared and adjusted to each other. You
will be able to define exactly which data will have priority during the synchronisation in
®
the settings of the ActiveSync Program. Call up the Help of the Program (with the F1 Button), in order to become familiar with the effects of the respective settings. A restricted
Guest Access, with which you will be able to exchange data, for example, will become
active automatically if the navigation system has not been recognised as a partner. If this is
the case, although the process concerns the registered partner device, separate your navigation system from the PC and switch it off and on again. Now connect your navigation
system to the PC, to restart the recognition process. Repeat the process and, restart your
PC in addition, if your device continues to be recognised as a guest.
Note
Make sure that you always connect your navigation system to your PC
with the same USB connection, otherwise your PC will allocate an
additional ID and reinstall the device.

GPS (Global Positioning System)
GPS is a satellite-backed system for determining your position. With the help of 24 satellites revolving around the earth, it is possible to determine your position on earth with the
accuracy of a few meters. The satellite signals are received by the antenna of the built-in
GPS receiver, which must have a "line of sight" to at least 4 of these.
Note
When the line of sight is interrupted (eg in tunnels, between houses, in
woods or also in vehicles with metal-coated windows) it is not possible to
determine the position. The satellite reception however automatically picks
up again as soon as the obstacle has been passed and the line of sight is reestablished. Moving slowly (e.g. slow walking) also limits the accuracy of
the navigation.
The GPS receiver consumes additional power. This is especially of concern when running
on batteries. To conserve power do not turn on the GPS receiver unnecessarily. Also terminate the navigation software if it is not needed or satellite reception is not possible for a
longer period. You can also switch the device off by means of the On/Off switch if you
experience a short interruption in your journey, pressing the same switch again will reactivate a restart. The GPS receiver will also be reactivated at the same time, if the navigation
software is still active. There may be a delay for the position to be updated again; this is
dependent on the reception situation.
Note
Please note that your appliance is preset to not shut down automatically
after a few minutes without activity. You can change this preset in the
Settings mode. If the GPS receiver has not been active for some hours, it
must orientate itself again. This process may take a while.

TMC (Traffic Message Channel)
The Traffic Message Channel (TMC) is a digital radio data service that functions in a similar way to RDS and is used to transmit disruptions to traffic to a suitable reception device.
The traffic information is continuously transmitted across FM.
The user is less dependent on the half-hourly broadcast traffic information, because the
signal is continuously transmitted. Apart from this, important information, as in the case of
an accident in the road ahead, can be passed on immediately.
The transmission is planned for the whole of Europe and is already offered by radio transmitters in many countries. The precision of the TMC messages can deviate greatly according to the country. At time of printing a TMC service is not available in Ireland.
The evaluation of TMC messages is not supported by every type of navigation software.
Enquire whether your system supports TMC before the possible purchase of a TMC receiver.
In Austria, the TMC traffic messages are made available by the TMCplus service. TMCplus
stands for an even faster and more efficient passing on of traffic messages. It is a cooperation between ASFINAG and the Hitradio Ö3 radio broadcaster.
Pay TMC
PayTMC is interpreted as TMC Services that offer TMC information free of charge, such as
TMCpro in Germany, Trafficmaster in the UK or V-Trafic in France, for example. These
providers are distinguished from normal ‘free TMC’ because of more up-to-date information about the traffic flow.
Sensors in motorway bridges and set into the carriageway, and a large number of vehicles
equipped with ‘floating car’ data technology, supply a more precise and up-to-date picture of the traffic situation on German highways, inc. possible predictions, quickly.
The licence fees for the use of the PayTMC services will have already been settled with the
purchase of your navigation system and these services will be available to you for as long
as they are offered on the part of the provider.
Your navigation system will support both free TMC and PayTMC and will have been preset
for the reception of both services in the status at delivery.

Connecting an additional TMC Dipole Aerial (optional)
A TMC receiver and an active TMC dipole aerial are already integrated into your navigation
system, to receive traffic information. However, if the TMC signal is too weak, you have the
possibility to connect an addition TMC dipole antenna.
1. Plug the jack plug of the TMC angled aerial into the earphone connection of your
navigation system.
2. Attach the aerial, on the edge or your windscreen, for example, with the help of the
sucker.
3. Place the aerial so that a distance of approx. 10 cm from the metal frame of the
screen is maintained.
Your navigation system will now be able to receive traffic information through the TMC
receiver and thus direct you away from disruptions to traffic.

Working with Memory Cards
Inserting Memory Cards
1. Carefully take the optional memory card out of its packing (if included). Take care
not to touch or dirty the contacts.
2. Insert the memory card carefully into the card bay with contacts pointing forward.
The card must lock easily.
Removing Memory Cards
Note
Only remove the memory card if the navigation software has been closed
and the device has been switched off by means of the On/Off button beforehand. Otherwise you will risk a loss of data.
1. To remove the card press lightly onto the upper edge until it ejects.
2. Pull the card out without touching the contacts.
3. Store the memory card in the packing or in another safe location.
Note
Memory cards are very fragile. Take care not to dirty the contacts and not
to force the card.
Accessing Memory Cards

The appliance only supports memory cards in the FAT16/32 file format. If you
insert a card prepared with a different format (e.g. in cameras, MP3 players),
your navigation system may not recognize it and will ask you to format it
again.
Attention!
Formatting the memory card irretrievably wipes out all data.

(calls are charged at 7p per min from a standard landline, calls from mobiles could be higher)
Data Exchange via Card Reader
If you wish to copy large quantities of data (MP3 files, navigation maps) to the memory
card, these can also be stored directly to the memory card.
Many computers already have memory card devices. Insert the card into your computer
and copy the data directly to the card.
Because of the direct access you can achieve a much higher transfer rate compared to
using ActiveSync®.
Additional Card Material
Your navigation system is already equipped with digitalized map material in the internal
memory and/or memory card at the factory. Depending on the configuration, additional
maps may be included on your DVD. You will be able to transfer these cards to a memory
card immediately. It is recommended that you use an external card reader (see also page
60). The GoPal Assistant supplied with the device enables a simple and individual compilation of the map material to be transferred.
Depending on the amount of map data on the DVD, memory cards with capacities of 256
MB, 512 MB, 1.024 MB or more may be required.
You can obtain additional memory cards in specialist stores.
Transfer of card material to a memory card
The transfer of additional card material to a memory card can take place through Explorer
on your PC via the following steps:
1. Insert the DVD with the card material required.
2. Start your workstation and select your DVD Drive.
3. Copy the file with the .psf ending out of the Directory of the region that you require to the MapRegions Directory on your memory card, from the DVD.
You can transfer several files with map material to your memory card, depending on the
capacity of the memory card.
If you have copied digitized maps of several countries or country groups onto your memory card, you will be required to select the desired map in the navigation
application of your device.

Alternate method of installing Navigation Software (using a
Memory Card)
The software for your navigation system can be installed directly from a memory card.
The pre-installed software may have to be uninstalled beforehand (see special Clean Up
function, Page 49).
You will be requested to install the navigation software during the initial adjustment.
Please proceed as follows:
1. Remove the memory card from the packaging carefully. Ensure the contacts are not
touched or soiled.
2. Push the memory card into the corresponding slot until it engages.
3. Tap on OK, in order to install the application.
The main screen, through which you will now be able to carry out the navigation settings,
will appear after all data has been copied to your navigation system.
Transferring Installation Files and Map Material to the Internal
Memory
Note
The navigation system must be connected to a computer by means of
ActiveSync® for the transfer of the data.
Your device has an internal, permanent memory, which is located in the \My Flash Disk
directory.
®
You will be able to make this directory, and others, visible with ActiveSync , by means of
the Search option. Directories and files can be manipulated as in Windows Explorer.
The required directory must have been stored, in order to make the installation files and
the map material for the device available.
Deposit the INSTALL directory for the installation files at (\My Flash Disk\INSTALL). Deposit
the map material in the MapRegions directory (\My Flash Disk\MapRegions). Please pay
attention to the modes of lettering given above when naming the directories.
Pay attention to the fact that sufficient drive capacity must be available, if you have stored
additional data on your navigation device. Remove files not needed if sufficient drive capacity is not available.
