The sections of the operating guide marked with an asterisk (*) apply specifically to the Traffic Assist Highspeed II. Use The Traffic Assist Highspeed is a powerful PND (Personal Navigation Device) for use in vehicles and closed spaces. The unit should be protected from dampness and dirt. Navigation Thanks to GPS = Global Positioning System, you no longer need to spend hours searching through road atlases. Once outside buildings, the receiver antenna integrated in the unit gives you continuous access to navigational possibilities. Depending on reception, you may not be able to use the navigational function inside buildings. When used in vehicles, you may not be able to adequately receive GPS data depending on how the Traffic Assist Highspeed 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 Highspeed II is equipped with TMC*, which gives you the option of receiving traffic announcements via the TMC antenna provided. Traffic announcements are transmitted when the TMC is active. The system plans an alternative route automatically or on request to avoid traffic problems, depending on the setting. 3012 The Traffic Assist Highspeed can be used as: · navigational unit · MP3 (device for playing music) · JPEG picture viewer *Applies only to the Traffic Assist Highspeed II 6 The Traffic Assist Highspeed Music Thanks to the integrated MP3-Player, you can listen to your favourite tracks when on the go.

For proper care, a commercially available cleansing fluid for electrical devices may be applied using a soft damp cloth. Danger! Danger to life by electrocution. Always switch off the unit and disconnect 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. Your mobile navigation system was designed and manufactured with great care and should be treated with equal care. You will enjoy your mobile navigation system for a long time to come if you observe the recommendations listed in the following: · "Protect your mobile navigation system from water and moisture. If your unit is exposed to moisture, switch it off immediately and disconnect the power supply. Allow the unit to dry at room temperature. · Do not operate your mobile navigation system in a dusty or dirty environment and do not store it in such an environment. · Do not store your mobile navigation system in hot environments. 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 mobile navigation system in cold environments. During operation, when the unit warms up to operating temperature, moisture may form internally, causing damage to electronic components. · Do not drop your mobile navigation system unit, protect it from shocks and do not shake it. Improper handling can damage components within the unit. · Never use corrosive or aggressive chemicals, cleaning solutions or aggressive detergents for cleaning. All the above information applies equally to the mobile navigation system, the rechargeable battery, the mains charging and car power adapters as well as all accessories. Should one of these parts not work properly, please contact your authorised dealer. He will be pleased to assist. 16 General operations Battery quality declaration The capacity of the rechargeable battery in your mobile navigation system 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 mobile navigation system. In the event of a significant loss of capacity, we recommend replacement of the rechargeable battery. Please contact your authorised dealer. Use only genuine BECKER original spare parts. Display quality declaration In some cases, for technical reasons, a few discoloured dots (pixels) may be visible on the display. Some pixels may also appear brighter or darker. However, such instances do not represent a product flaw. Memory card The card supplied with the unit can hold one set of roadmaps. If you intend to listen to music using the Traffic Assist Highspeed or want to view images, you must save these to a separate card (not included). Playback of music while an active navigation is in progress is only possible if a memory card with a higher storage capacity is used (available separately, formatted with the FAT 16 file system). This can be used to store additional map material as well as music tracks. Start-up Once the Traffic Assist Highspeed has been unpacked and checked for damage, the unit can be started up.
