Step 1
Remove the memory card from the car
Make sure that the car ignition is turned off.
Tip: Wait at least 6 seconds after turning off the
ignition.
Locate the navigation device in your car. In most
cars it is located on the left side of the steering
wheel towards the door.
You can see a sliding door as shown in the
picture. Open the door by sliding it to the right.
Push the memory card in a little until it goes no
further. A spring now forces the card to come out
far enough so that you can take hold of the card.
Note: The first few times you remove the memory card you may need
a bit more force than usual. This is normal. Do
no use any tools to remove the memory card.
Take the memory card out of the navigation
device. Take the card to the computer that you
are going to use to update the software on the
card.
