car cigarette lighter / 12 V power socket dur-
ing your journey.
Geosat 4 TRAVEL comes with the battery un-
charged, but the navigator can be used right
away with the car charger. The battery will
require 4 hours charging to be fully charged.
Geosat 4 TRAVEL can be fed with voltage
between 10 and 35 V. The car charger cable
provided in the box should be used to power
the Geosat via the car cigarette/12 V power
socket.
1. Plug the car charger cable into the Geosat
4 TRAVEL.
2. Remove the cigarette lighter from its slot
or remove the 12 V power socket cover.
3. Insert the other end of the cable into the
socket.
Some vehicles are equipped with additional
12 V plugs.
The red LED on the plug confirms the correct
functioning of the power supply. If the LED is
off, check the connections or try again with
the vehicle engine on.
The battery recharges when the navigator is
fed with the power supply cable, either if it is
on or if it has been switched off with the PAGE
button. In this case, the keyboard flashes un-
til the Geosat 4 TRAVEL is fully charged.
ATTENTION when the device encounters in-
ternal temperatures of higher than 60°, the
battery will not recharge and an alarm mes-
sage will be displayed. This can happen if the
navigator is exposed for a long time to direct
sunlight in hot weather. In such cases, it is
suggested that you switch off the navigator
to recharge the battery.
Battery Functioning
Geosat 4 TRAVEL battery allows the navigator
to operate even without feeding it with the
power supply cable.
When the navigator is used without power
supply, an icon (battery) indicating the level
of charging of the battery is shown. If this
icon is half green, the level of charge of the
battery is equal or less than half, if the icon is
fully green, it means that the level of charge
is more than half.
When Geosat for travel is fed, another icon
(plug with batteries) is shown. There are two
status: if the icon is coloured in yellow, the
battery is recharing, if the icon is coloured
in green, it means that the battery is fully
charged.
The maximum autonomy of the battery in
optimal conditions ranges from 30 minutes
to 2 hours (according to the usage patterns).
It is possible to extend the autonomy of the
battery optimizing the energetic waste: in the
system setup it is possible to choose among
three levels of power save (no, medium,
maximum).
