compatible flash drives.

Starting with Software Release V680 the software update also can be exe-
cuted directly from a PC that is on the same network as the Kayak system
devices. Inserting the Kayak Software CD-ROM into the PC launches an
autorun

program. If autorun is disabled on your PC, the program can be

started manually from /autorun/autorun.exe on the CD. The installa-
tion program is multilingual and self explanatory.

The Sidepanel program is also available on the Kayak Software CD-ROM
or with the web site download. The Sidepanel program can be installed
onto a PC and used for Kayak system configuration and to access addi-
tional advanced Kayak system capabilities.

Refer to the latest Kayak Release Notes for a detailed description of the com-
plete software installation procedure.
