Maintenance and care

The unit is maintenance-free.

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.

A micro-fibre cloth is particularly suitable for the display.

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 unit and the accessories from water and moisture. If your unit has been exposed to moisture, switch it off immediately and disconnect the power supply. Allow 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.

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.

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.

Start-up

Once the Navigation device has been unpacked and checked for damage, the unit can be started up. The individual start-up steps are:

  • connect to power supply.
  • switching on the unit.
    ensuring antenna reception (if navigation is desired)

Power supply

Note:

You can charge the Navigation device via the car charger cable included in the scope of delivery or via the optionally available mains power supply unit. When the Navigation device is connected to a PC, it is supplied with power via the PC and does not consume battery power.

Using the battery

The internal power supply is via the integrated rechargeable battery. The rechargeable battery is maintenance-free and does not require any particular care.

You are alerted by a warning message when the battery should be recharged. After the alert, the device can still be used for approximately 10 minutes before switching off automatically.

Note:

Note that if the battery is completely discharged, it may take up to a minute before the device can be switched on again.

Note:

In the event of a defective battery, please contact your authorised dealer. Please do not attempt to remove the battery yourself.

Connection for the cigarette lighter

Note:

If the cigarette lighter has recently been used and is still hot, wait until the lighter socket has cooled down.

Connect the power supply via the vehicle battery and the cable provided for the cigarette lighter as follows:

Grasp the connector of the connection cable and insert it gently without force into the connector socket of the navigation device up to the stop, or in the case of a device with an active cradle, on the underside of the supporting plate. (Model dependent, this step is not required on navigation devices with magnetic holders)

BECKER TRANSIT 5 LMU - Note: - 1

BECKER TRANSIT 5 LMU - Note: - 2

Insert the adapter into the cigarette lighter.

Note:

When the engine is switched off, the power supply slowly discharges the vehicle battery via the cigarette lighter!

Do not therefore operate the Navigation device for long periods with the engine switched off.

To receive TMC messages (depending on the model), the power supply must be connected to the supporting plate in the case of a device with an active cradle.

Connection to the mains outlet

BECKER TRANSIT 5 LMU - Connection to the mains outlet - 1

Danger!

Make sure that your hands are not wet and that the power supply unit is dry. Only connect the power supply unit to a permissible mains power supply.

Connecting to power supply

Hold the connector and push it all the way into the connecting socket in the Navigation device without using excessive force.
Insert the plug of the power supply unit into the socket.

Note:

Remove the power supply unit when not using the Navigation device for longer periods of time.

TMC antenna (depending on the model)

The supplied TMC antenna is integrated into the cable for power supply.

The TMC antenna runs in parallel with the cigarette lighter cable in the delivered condition.

If the TMC reception is poor, you must remove the cable of the TMC antenna from the cable for the cigarette lighter.

(Model dependent, the cable cannot be disconnected on navigation devices with magnetic holders)

Note:

The TMC antenna must be installed in such a way that it does not distract you while driving.

GPS antenna

Unit antenna

The GPS antenna is integrated into the housing.

Note:

The integrated GPS antenna is not suitable for use in vehicles with anti-glare windows (metalised thermoglass or metal foil, indicated by the window label - SIGLA SOL, SIGLA CHROM, SIGLA, KOOL-OF, SUNGATE, etc.) and vehicles with fine-meshed heating wires in the windows.

Cable for vehicle integration (depending on model, optional)

With a 4-pin 3.5mm jack cable you can integrate your Navigation device seamlessly into your vehicle.

  • connect your Navigation device to the phone mute function of your audio system. If the cable is connected correctly, your audio system will mute the car radio during navigation announcements.
  • connect your Navigation device to your audio system for output of the audio signal.

BECKER TRANSIT 5 LMU - Cable for vehicle integration (depending on model, optional) - 1

Plug the cable into the designated 3.5 socket on the underside of the device.

What is navigation?

The term "navigation" (lat. navigare = to travel by sea) is generally understood to mean the determination of a vehicle's location, the determination of its direction and its distance from the desired destination and the required route to get there. Stars, prominent landmarks, compasses and satellites etc. are used as navigation tools.

With the Navigation device, the location is determined by the GPS receiver. The Global Positioning System (GPS) was developed during the 1970s by the US military as a weapons guiding system. GPS is based on a total of 24 satellites which orbit the Earth and transmit signals. A GPS receiver receives these signals and calculates its distance to the individual satellites based on the signal travel times, and then determines your current geographical position.

Signals from at least three satellites are required to determine your position; your height above sea level can be calculated if signals are received from four or more satellites.

The Navigation device determines the direction and distance from the destination using a navigation computer and a digital street map held in its internal memory.

For safety reasons, route guidance is given predominantly in spoken form.

This is supported by a direction indicator and a map display on the touch screen.

Safety instructions

  • Road traffic regulations always take priority. The navigation system is merely an aid, data/information may in select cases be incorrect. The driver must decide in each situation by him or herself if he or she will follow the directions. No liability will be assumed for incorrect directions provided by the navigation system.
  • When first put into use it can take up to 30 minutes to fix the position.
  • Observation of traffic signs and local traffic regulations must always take priority.
  • Traffic guidance is restricted to passenger vehicles. Special driving recommendations and regulations for other vehicles (e.g. commercial vehicles) are not included.
  • Destinations may only be entered when the vehicle is stationary.

Selecting Navigation

Navigation mode is called up from the main menu. New destinations can be entered in the menu "New destination". Destinations that have already been visited or saved can be selected in the menu My destinations.

In the main menu, press the button My destinations.

Traffic announcements using TMC (depending on the model)

Your Navigation device can receive traffic announcements (TMC messages) from radio stations. The power supply with the integrated TMC antenna must be connected to the carrier plate for this function.

Note:

TMC is not available in all countries.

Traffic announcements are transmitted by radio stations via the TMC (Traffic Message Channel) in addition to the radio programme and are received and analysed by the navigation system. Receiving traffic announcements is free of charge.

Note:

As the traffic announcements are transmitted by radio stations, we cannot assume responsibility for the completeness or accuracy of the announcements.

Austria: The location and event code was made available by ASFINAG and BMVIT.

The Navigation device constantly checks whether there are any relevant announcements for the route that has been set. All traffic problems that have been received are shown on the map. If the continuous checks determine that a traffic announcement is relevant to route guidance, the unit can automatically recalculate a new route to the destination (See "The TMC button" on page 74).

Live Traffic - Traffic Announcements via Data Connection (model dependent)

Your navigation device can receive traffic announcements from a server via a data connection. These announcements are more up-to-date than data received via TMC and are also available more quickly. There must also be an appropriate data connection. Subsequent use of the traffic announcements is the same as described below for TMC.

If a connection to the server is not possible, the system then tries to switch over to TMC traffic announcements (model dependent). As soon as TMC is displayed, there is no connection to the Life Traffic server.

In the Chapter entitled WiFi Settings on page 138 we describe how to create a data connection.

Notice:

The data transmission via your mobile phone may involve additional costs depending on the mobile phone contract. Please find out from your mobile phone provider before activating. If a connection to the server is not possible, e.g. because no mobile phone network is available for a longer period of time, then the system switches over automatically to TMC until a connection to the server is possible again.

Displaying TMC messages on the map

Current TMC messages are displayed on the map graphically. Sections of the route where there are traffic problems are highlighted blue. Arrows indicating the traffic direction which is affected by the traffic problem continue to be displayed.

In addition to the coloured mark, a warning sign is displayed on the stretch of road affected.

BECKER TRANSIT 5 LMU - Displaying TMC messages on the map - 1

Using TMC

When the Navigation device has been attached to the carrier plate (power supply with the integrated TMC antenna connected), your Navigation device will receive up-to-date traffic announcements. It is then possible to calculate dynamic routes (traffic jam diversion).

You can also view traffic announcements directly.

Settings for TMC can be made as described under "The TMC button" on page 74.

In the main menu, press the button.

The map overview appears.

Taking announcements into consideration when calculating routes

Your Navigation device can take traffic announcements into consideration when calculating a route. You have the option of setting this function to automatic, manual or never in the menu in the navigation settings with the TMC option (see "The TMC button" on page 74).

Automatic recalculation

If the traffic on your route is obstructed, the Navigation device checks whether an expedient detour of the obstruction is possible. If an expedient detour is possible, then an alternative route is calculated and you are guided via the alternative route.

Manual recalculation

If a traffic announcement affects your route, a window with detailed information on the traffic announcement appears.

BECKER TRANSIT 5 LMU - Manual recalculation - 1

If, after displaying the traffic message, the navigation system detects that a sensible alternative route is possible, the following display appears.

Note:

This display may also appear if, for example, a previously obstructed route is now free again.

BECKER TRANSIT 5 LMU - Note: - 1

The display provides you with an overview of the alternative route calculated.

The red route or route marked blue for an obstruction shows the previous route.

The route marked yellow displays the alternative route calculated.

In the right section of the display, you can see how much the route changes and how much time you will likely save if you use the alternative route.

Now either press the OK button to use the alternative route or press the Reject button to continue using the existing route.

The map display

The map display is used primarily for route guidance. However, you can also use the map display without route guidance to show your current position and, for example, to receive warnings about exceeding the speed limit.

Calling up the map display

The map display is called up automatically when you start route guidance.

Without route guidance, you can call up the map display from the main menu.

The map display will then appear and, if GPS reception is available, will show your current position.

If route guidance is already active, the map will be displayed with route guidance.

SituationScan

If this function is activated in the Navigation settings in the Route guidance menu, three assistants support the driver during the travel with useful information and help in case of unexpected traffic situations.

The detour assistant

This function reacts to the reduction of the speed. If there are no POIs such as resting places or filling stations in the vicinity, the assistant assumes that the driver is in a traffic jam. If the symbol is displayed in colour and begins to blink, the assistant suggests a detour.

Press the symbol.

A message is displayed with the question "You are probably standing in a traffic jam. Would you like to avoid the jam using a detour?" Now you can have the suggested detours displayed and select or reject them.

If the vehicle is not on a motorway, the detour assistant calculates possible alternative routes before the next crossing in case of strong stop-and-go traffic to get you there faster. If the assistant can calculate an alternative route before the vehicle passes the crossing, the symbol is blinking. The alternative routes can be displayed and selected similar to the identically named function described on page 84.

The Park Assistant

This assistant will be activated when you are near the destination or passed by the destination. In the case when the driver is looking for a parking place, the symbol is activated as soon as it is possible to park in the given point of interest. Up to eight parking possibilities may be displayed, where the route to there and the footpath from the parking

lot to the destination are governing for the selection.

Touch a parking possibility on the map to select it.

You can then have the route leading there displayed and the route guidance started. You can have the device lead you to the destination in pedestrian mode at the arrival at the parking place.

The departure assistant

This assistant reacts when you leave the suggested route, and asks your intentions with a list of options. Depending on whether you are looking for a resting place or a parking place, or would like to avoid a visual traffic obstruction, a tunnel or a toll road, the assistant displays the appropriate POIs in the vicinity or calculates a detour that supports the driver in avoiding the given route section. If the assistant has calculated a detour, the symbol is activated and blinking.

GMT

(Greenwich Mean Time)

Central European Time standard

Standard time at 0 degree longitude (the longitude intersecting Greenwich, Great Britain). This time is used worldwide for synchronization of data collection.

Bluetooth® wireless technology

Technology for wireless data transmission at short range up to 10 metres.

GPS

(Global Positioning System)

GPS determines your actual geographical position by the use of satellites. It is based on a total of 24 satellites which orbit the Earth and transmit signals. The GPS receiver receives these signals and calculates the distance to each satellite from the running time differences and thus evaluates its actual current position in terms of geographical length and width. In order to determine the position, signals from at least three satellites are required, and the fourth one allows the height to be determined.

JPG/JPEG

(Joint Photographic Experts Group)

The JPEG is the most common type of storage format for dissipating picture compression, i.e. when compressing, details of the picture are lost. Still provides good picture quality despite compression, compression stages are selectable. It is the most common format for representation and exchange of pictures on the internet.

SD card

(Secure Digital)

The Secure Digital Card was developed in 2001 by SanDisk on the basis of the older MMC standard. An SD card is a re-writable change-over storage card.

Stylus

A stylus is an input pointer which is used for the operation of touch-screens, mobile phones or PDAs.

The stylus consists basically of a plastic pointer with a softer plastic core. The sleeve is hard and can be gripped and the softer core emerges at the tip and is designed to touch the screen as softly as possible (i.e. without the danger of scratching the screen).

The stylus is more accurate than operation using the fingers, since only the thin tip touches the screen. In addition, dirty marks on the screen caused by fingerprints are avoided.

TMC

(Traffic Message Channel)

Traffic announcements transmitted by most FM stations via RDS. Basis for dynamic navigation.

USB

(Universal Serial Bus)

The Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a bus sytem for interconnection of a computer with external USB peripherals for the exchange of data.

Disposal of the battery

Duty to supply information according to battery legislation (BattV)

Batteries must not be disposed of in household waste. It is the duty of the user to return used batteries. Please only dispose of batteries via specialised dealers or at battery collection points. In this way, you make a positive contribution to environmental protection.

Since 1998, German battery legislation obligates all citizens to dispose of used batteries exclusively via the retail or at collection points specially equipped for this purpose (statutory obligation to return). It is the duty of the retail and of manufacturers to take back these batteries free of charge and to correctly recycle them or to dispose of them as hazardous waste (statutory obligation to take back).

The lithium ion battery in the Navigation device is marked with the adjacent symbol, consisting of a crossed-out waste bin, and the type of battery used.
