MICRO SD SLOT FOR NAVIGATION SOFTWARE

Here you can insert the MicroSD card of the navigation software. For the device to have access, you may need to assign the access path in the Apps menu under “Settings”.

RESET BUTTON

If the device stops responding to input, the system is overloaded or crashed. Then reboot the system by pressing the reset button (RST) on the front panel. Use a suitable object, such as a paper clip or a ballpoint pen. After pressing the reset button, the system restarts without losing your previous settings.

SETUP THE 4G/LTE INTERNET CONNECTION

  1. First lay the two 4G/LTE antennas inside the dashboard towards the windshield, one antenna for the left and one for the right.
  2. Ideally, you should stick the antennas to the windshield to ensure optimal reception.
  3. Then insert your SIM card in the 4G/LTE dongle:

Open the dongle by pushing the flap to the right.

Now open the metal flap carefully with a suitable tool by pushing the flap up.
Then insert your SIM card with the contacts facing down.

Close and lock the metal flap carefully by pushing the flap down.

Compatible SIM cards:

4. Then turn on the device to test the 4G/LTE connection.
After the device has started, enter your 4-digit PIN code of the SIM card here. Confirm the entry with the tick.

After successful entry, the SIM card is unlocked.
If the device is successfully connected to the mobile Internet, the „4G“ symbol appears in the status bar at the top right.

If the device is turned off, you have to enter the PIN code of the SIM card again after each restart, just like with a smartphone.
5. After a successful test, install the 4G/LTE dongle in the radio slot or dashboard.

INSTALLATION TIPS

Shipping locks:
Remove both shipping locks on the top of the device before starting installation.

GPS antenna:
The GPS antenna must be mounted horizontally, if possible on the front of the dashboard (ensure a clear view to the sky). No reception is possible with a metal-coated windscreen.

DAB + antenna:
Glue the DAB+ antenna to the windscreen on the right or left and lay the connection cable through the dashboard to the radio slot.

USB connection:
Lay the cable to the desired installation location, e.g. in the glove compartment. If necessary, openings have to be drilled for this.
