Troubleshooting

Problem

Solution

My device is not acquiring

satellite signals.

• Verify the GPS simulator is turned off (

page 36

).

• Take your device out of parking garages and away from tall buildings and trees.

• Remain stationary for several minutes.

The suction cup will not

stay on my windshield.

1

Clean the suction cup and windshield with rubbing alcohol.

2

Dry with a clean, dry cloth.

3

Mount the suction cup (

page 5

).

The device does not

charge in my vehicle.

• Check the fuse in the vehicle power cable (

page 40

).

• Verify the vehicle is turned on and is supplying power to the power outlet.

• Your device can only charge between 32°F and 113°F (between 0°C and 45°C). If

the device is placed in direct sunlight or in a hot environment, it cannot charge.

My battery does not stay

charged for very long.

To maximize the time between charges, turn down the backlight (

page 37

).

My battery gauge does not

seem accurate.

Allow the unit to fully discharge, and fully charge it (without interrupting the charge

cycle).

How do I know my device

is in USB mass storage

mode?

When your device is in USB mass storage mode, a picture of a device connected to a

computer is shown on the device screen. Also, you should see two new removable disk

drives listed in My Computer.

The device is connected

to the computer, but it will

not go into mass storage

mode.

1

Disconnect the USB cable from your computer.

2

Turn off the device.

3

Plug the USB cable into a USB port on your computer and into your device.

The device automatically turns on and goes into USB mass storage mode.

4

Verify your device is connected to a USB port and not a USB hub.

I cannot see any new

removable drives in my list

of drives.

If you have several network drives mapped on your computer, Windows can have

trouble assigning drive letters to your device drives. Refer to your operating system Help

file to learn how to map or assign drive letters.

My phone will not connect

to the device.

• From the main menu, select Tools > Settings > Bluetooth. The Bluetooth field must

be set to Enabled.

• Turn on your phone and bring it within 33 feet (10 m) of the device.
