4.1.1Initialising the GPS receiver

As soon as the navigation device has been switched on, initialisation of the GPS receiver will begin.

The integrated GPS receiver is not initialised for the first time until the navigation application is started for the first time. It can take up to

20minutes to initialise the GPS receiver for the first time.

Note: If the GPS symbol indicates GPS Ready after far less than

20 minutes, it is advisable to leave the navigation device switched on for at least another 15 minutes in order to ensure reliable operation of the receiver.

Each time you switch on the navigation device after this, GPS reception will start within a short time.

If the navigation device has not been switched on for more than a week, it can take up to 10 minutes to re-initialise the receiver.

In the top right hand corner of the display, you will see the GPS symbol. As soon as data from at least three satellites is received, the icon will

change to (GPS Ready).

Note: Initialisation takes the least time if you do not start driving until the initialisation has finished.

For more details about the GPS symbol refer to chapter "GPS" on page 15.

The MAIN MENU window opens when the navigation application is started.
