Safety instructions

!Safety instructions

• Operation of the unit is permitted only if traffic conditions are suitable and you are absolutely sure that you, your

passengers or other motorists are not endangered, obstructed or inconvenienced.

In all cases, all applicable road traffic regulations must be obeyed. Destinations may only be entered when the vehicle is

stationary.

• The navigation system is only an aid. Errors may occur in individual data items/entries. At all times, the driver must decide

whether or not to heed the information provided. We do not accept liability for erroneous data provided by the navigation

system. Due to continual changes in traffic routing or deviations in the data, it may occur that imprecise or erroneous

information is given. Therefore, actual road signs and traffic regulations must always be observed. In particular, the

navigation system cannot be used as an orientation aid at times of poor visibility.

• The unit must only be used for its intended purpose. The volume of the navigation unit should be adjusted so that external

noise is still clearly audible.

• Switch off the unit immediately if a fault occurs (e.g. emission of smoke or odours).

• In the interest of safety, the unit must only be opened by a specialist. Please refer to your dealer for repair.

• Never open the unit (with the exception of the battery compartment) or the rechargeable battery. Any modification to the

unit is also impermissible and renders the type approval invalid.

• Use only genuine HarmanBecker original accessories. This will ensure that all the relevant regulations are complied with

and damage to health and property is avoided. Dispose of defective units and the rechargeable battery according to the

applicable legal requirements.

• No warranty is granted in the case of improper use. These safety instructions also apply to genuine HarmanBecker original

accessories.

General operation

Maintenance and care

The unit is maintenance-free.

For proper care, a commercially available

cleansing fluid for electrical devices may

be applied using a soft damp cloth.

Your unit was designed and manufactured

with great care and should be treated with

equal care. You will enjoy your unit for a

long time to come if you observe the rec-

ommendations listed below:

• Protect your unit and the accessories

from water and moisture. If your unit

has been exposed to moisture, switch it

off immediately and disconnect the

power supply. Allow to dry at room

temperature.

• Do not store and operate your unit in a

dusty or dirty environment.

• Do not store your unit in hot environ-

ments. High temperatures can shorten

the service life of electronic components

in your unit, damage the rechargeable

batteries and cause certain plastics to

warp or melt.

• Do not store your unit in cold environ-

ments. During operation, when the

unit warms up to operating tempera-

ture, moisture may form internally,

causing damage to electronic compo-

nents.

• Do not drop your unit, protect it from

shocks and do not shake it. Improper

handling can damage components

within the unit.

• Never use corrosive or aggressive chem-

icals, cleaning solutions or aggressive

detergents for cleaning.

All the above information applies equally

to the unit, the rechargeable battery and

all accessories. Should one of these parts

not work properly, please contact your au-

thorised dealer.

!Danger!

Danger to life by electrocution.

Always switch off the unit and discon-

nect the mains power supply unit before

cleaning the unit, supplied components

or accessories.

Note:

Do not use any aggressive or abrasive

substances or cloths which may damage

the surface.

The unit must not be exposed to water.

Battery quality declaration

The capacity of the rechargeable battery in

your Becker® MAP PILOT decreases

with every charging/discharging cycle.

Improper storage at excessively high or

low temperatures may also cause a gradual

deterioration of capacity. Consequently,

the operating time may be substantially

reduced even in the case of a fully charged

battery.

The rechargeable battery is designed such

that it should certainly still be possible for

it to be charged and discharged after

6 months of operation of your unit.

Commissioning

Once the Becker® MAP PILOT has been

unpacked and checked to ensure it is free

of damage, the unit can be started up.

The battery is already deployed. To avoid

a premature discharge, is the contact to

the device interrupted by a slide. Remove

this slide from the device.

Insert the Becker® MAP PILOT as de-

scribed under “Unit holder” on page 10.

Power supply

Your Becker® MAP PILOT has an inte-

grated rechargeable battery. The battery is

charged as soon as the Becker® MAP

PILOT is placed in the holder and the ve-

hicle ignition is switched on.

Memory card

Your Becker® MAP PILOT has a slot for

an SD memory card.

The card slot is located on the right side of

the Becker® MAP PILOT. The card slot

is equipped with a spring-actuated locking

and ejector mechanism.

Note:

Note that if the battery is completely dis-

charged, it may take up to a minute be-

fore the Becker® MAP PILOT can be

activated again.

played in the instrument cluster of the ve-

hicle.

Calling up navigation mode

>Press the button on the

audio system.

Selecting/highlighting elements

button of the installed audio system. Turn

the rotary control/push button to toggle

between the various menu items. This op-

erating manual describes the process of

highlighting.

Note:

The slide can be pulled out. Is the slide

pulled out, the Becker® MAP PILOT

additional protection against theft.

To unlock the Becker® MAP PILOT the

slide can only be one way inserted.
