Safety information

!Safety information

• The unit may only be operated if the traffic situation allows for this and if you are absolutely certain that you yourself,

your fellow passengers or other road users will not be put at risk, encumbered or disturbed by this.

• The rules of applicable road traffic acts must be observed at all times. Destinations may only be input when the vehicle is

stationary.

• The navigational system is only an aid. The data/details provided may in some cases be incorrect. The driver must always

decide whether to follow the details given or not. We accept no liability for the navigational system issuing incorrect

details. As a result of traffic routing changes and deviating data, inaccurate or incorrect instructions may be given. Drivers

should always pay attention to the actual road signs and traffic control. In particular, the navigational system cannot be

used as a means of orientation in cases of poor visibility.

• The unit may only be used for its intended purpose. The volume of the navigational system should be set so that noises

outside the vehicle can still be heard.

• The unit should be switched off immediately if faults occur (e.g. development of smoke or smells).

• For safety reasons, the unit may only be opened by a specialist. Please contact your local stockist if you require repairs.

to observe this can result in destruction of the unit and the charger as well as explosion of the rechargeable battery.

• Never open the unit or the rechargeable battery. Any modification to the unit is also impermissible and renders the type

approval invalid.

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

The Traffic Assist

Operating guide content

The two devices Traffic Assist and Traffic

Assist with TMC are described in this op-

erating guide. All the descriptions, with

the exception of those marked with an as-

terisk (*), apply to both devices.

The sections of the operating guide

marked with an asterisk (*) apply specifi-

cally to the Traffic Assist with TMC.

Use

The Traffic Assist is a powerful PND

(Personal Navigation Device) for use in

vehicles and closed spaces. The unit

should be protected from dampness and

dirt.

The Traffic Assist can be used as:

• navigational unit

• MP3 (device for playing music)

• JPEG picture viewer

Navigation

Thanks to GPS = Global Positioning Sys-

tem, you no longer need to spend hours

searching through road atlases.

Once outside buildings, the receiver an-

tennaintegratedintheunitgivesyoucon-

tinuous access to navigational possibili-

ties. Depending on reception, you may

not be able to use the navigational func-

tion inside buildings. When used in vehi-

cles,you may notbe able toadequately re-

ceive GPS data depending on how the

Traffic Assist is installed. In such cases,

you will have to connect up an external

antenna (does not fall within the scope of

supply).

The Traffic Assist with TMC is equipped

with TMC*, which gives you the option

of receiving traffic announcements via the

TMC antenna provided. Traffic an-

nouncements are transmitted when the

TMC is active. The system plans an alter-

nativerouteautomaticallyoronrequestto

avoid traffic problems, depending on the

setting.

Cable for power supply from

cigarette lighter

This cable allows the unit to be connected

up to the car's cigarette lighter.

The power supply must satisfy the follow-

ing requirements:

• DC current 12 volts

0.5 amps

Battery

When depleted, the integrated rechargea-

ble battery can be recharged by connect-

ing the Traffic Assist to the power supply.

For this purpose, connect the unit to a

computer via the USB connecting cable,

connect it to a 12 V socket in a vehicle us-

ing the car power adapter, or charge it us-

ing the optional mains power supply unit

connected the 230 V grid.

SD memory card

A memory card is used as a storage medi-

um for road maps, music tracks and imag-

es.

The memory card provided has a storage

capacity of 2 GB and offers sufficient

space for the complete European map set,

the Traffic Assist does not support larger

memory cards. If you intend to listen to

music using the Traffic Assist or want to

view images, you must save these to a sep-

arate card (not included).

When not in the unit, the memory card

must be stored in a protected dry place

away from direct sunlight in the packag-

ing supplied. Avoid touching or dirtying

the contact strip.

Youwillfindmore detailsaboutthe mem-

ory card under:

• "Technical Data" on page 90

Notes:

The complete European map set requires

approximately 1.8 GB of memory space.

If you intend to listen to music, look at

pictures or watch videos on the Traffic

Assist. We recommend that you store the

relevant data on a separate memory card

(not included in scope of delivery).

If you would like to listen to music with

the Traffic Assist during navigation, the

music must be stored on the supplied

memorycard. The Traffic Assist doesnot

support the changing of memory cards

during navigation.
