Start Up – Installing the SD Card
Before using the 6 SERIES, you will need to install the Micro-SD Card included with the
device. The Micro-SD Card comes complete with digital mapping and is also where the
AURA™ camera database is stored if you choose to subscribe and download it.
Start by removing the Micro-SD Card from its packaging and insert it into the Micro-
SD Card slot as indicated. Switch on the device by pressing and holding the standby
power button located on the top right hand side of the unit for 2 seconds. The 6 SERIES
will automatically synchronise with the Micro-SD Card. Once the synchronisation is
completed, the Micro-SD Card will not function with any other device. 6 SERIES is now
ready to navigate and the camera database can be downloaded if necessary.
Please note that if the unit does not activate when you press and hold the standby power button for 2 seconds it may require
charging. Refer to the section ‘Charging the internal battery’ later in this manual.
