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.
GENERAL OPERATION Notes: A small slider is located on one side of the card. If this is pushed in the direction of the arrow, the Memory Card is protected from being overwritten. The card slot is located on the left side of the unit. The card slot is equipped with a spring-actuated locking and ejector mechanism. Notes: The memory card should only ever be inserted and ejected when the unit is switched off. If the unit is not switched off, data may be lost.
>>> GENERAL OPERATION Power supply >D Note: You can charge the Traffic Assist via the car charger cable included in the scope of delivery or via the optionally-available mains power supply unit.
