Deactivation and Licence Update

The CoPilot desktop software contains street-level maps for all of Europe, and CoPilot is offered with different licences that allow you to use some or all of these maps on your Pocket PC. Licences are available for the following:

(1)Single region - Detailed street-level maps for any of the following regions: Alps Ski Region, Benelux (Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg), France, Germany, Italy, Pyrenees, Scandinavia, and the United Kingdom.

(2)Pan-Europe- Complete street-level maps for all of Europe.

After purchasing the licence, go to CoPilot's Tools menu, select Update Licence/ Activate, and input your new activation code. The CoPilot desktop software already contains complete European maps, which can now be down- loaded to your Pocket PC for in-vehicle use. If you purchased CoPilot with a sin- gle region licence and later want to use street maps from other regions, you will need to purchase an update licence from your dealer.

Speech Volume

To hear CoPilot’s voice prompts, the volume on your Pocket PC must be turned all the way up. In the Pocket PC Start menu, go to Settings and tap on Sounds and Notifications. Under System Volume, move the slide bar all the way to the right. Or use your Pocket PC’s keypad when CoPilot is open: tap up until you reach the maximum volume.

If you installed the TTS (text to speech) voice option, you may also want to make sure the “Amplify Speech Volume” option is on — tap the Tools menu (if you don’t see it, tap at the top or bottom of the screen), select Options, and tap the Guidance tab. This option should be checked.
