If you choose to activate a region other than the region pre-installed on your QuickStart storage card, you will be required to download the selected region to your storage card using the Data Download Wizard from within the CoPilot desktop application. Additionally, you will not be able to use the data region that was pre-installed on your card.

7.In-vehicle hardware setup

WARNING: Never leave the GPS receiver in a closed vehicle that exceeds 60o C.

(For complete instructions, see the GPS Receiver Guide that came with the product, or tap Tutorial in the Welcome screen on your Pocket PC.)

First turn on your Pocket PC, then make sure that the GPS receiver is attached and powered and your engine is running before using CoPilot.

If you have a CoPilot vent mount and in-vehicle power adapter:

1.With your engine running, attach the cable to the Pocket PC and insert it into your vehicle’s cigarette lighter socket. Make sure it is firmly seated (red light on).

2.Attach the vent mount clips to the vent in your vehicle, in a position that will allow you to be comfortable as you view and operate CoPilot.

3.Slide the Pocket PC into the vent mount, and make sure it is turned on.

GPS Receiver setup:

Open CoPilot and tap the GPS button in the Welcome screen to set up your GPS receiver. CoPilot will scan all COM Port and Baud Rate settings until it finds your GPS receiver.

8.Adjust the 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 turn on the “Amplify Speech Volume” option — tap the Tools menu (if the menu isn’t visible, tap at the top or bottom of the screen), select Options, and tap the Guidance tab.

9.Enter an address
