Battery Information

Your unit contains an internal (non-

battery should last up to 8 hours,

depending on usage.
The

battery icon in the corner of

the Menu page indicates the status of the

internal battery. If the icon is not present,

the c510 is connected to external power.
Contact your local waste disposal

department for information on properly

disposing of the unit.

About Satellite Signals

Your c510 must acquire satellite signals

to operate. If you are indoors, near tall

buildings or trees, or in a parking garage,

the c510 cannot acquire satellites.

Go outside to an area free from tall

obstructions to use your c510.
When the c510 has acquired satellite

signals, the signal strength bars on the

Menu page are green

. When it

loses satellite signals, the bars turn red or

disappear

.
