3.) How to browse and select updates in <strong>Content</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> 2.0?<br />
After successfully connecting your Becker PND and logging in, you can start browsing<br />
updates and extra maps in <strong>Content</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> 2.0. Click on the Get Maps & More button in the<br />
menu bar on the left hand side.<br />

Available updates and extras can be filtered by geographic region or content type (map, 3D<br />
package, etc.). If a content is available for payment, the price and a Buy now button is shown<br />
for this item. If an update is available for you free of charge, then another button called Add is<br />
shown. You can find out more details about the updates by clicking on the (i) icon.<br />

After you have purchased an update or extra or clicked on the Add button (in case of free<br />
updates), it gets added to the installation queue, and the number of updates awaiting<br />
installation is shown on the My Updates button.<br />
Click on My updates button to continue with the download and installation of updates.<br />

4.) How to buy updates and extras in <strong>Content</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> 2.0?<br />
You can start buying by clicking on the Buy now button of a selected item.<br />
It will open a new <strong>Content</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> 2.0 window with a web-site like page with the detailed<br />
description of that item. You can add it to the cart by clicking on the Add to cart icon.<br />
© 2010 – United Navigation GmbH 10
If <strong>Content</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> 2.0 recognizes that your connected Becker PND does not have enough<br />
free storage space available for the selected update(s), it will give a warning message about<br />
this.<br />
You can still decide to continue to add it to your cart. In this case you will need to temporarily<br />
remove some content (e.g. some unused maps) to be able to install this update or extra map.<br />

After adding the item to the cart, you will see your cart with a button to start the checkout<br />
process.<br />
If you would like to buy additional updates too, simply close this window and push the Buy<br />
now button for another item, then the Add to cart button to add the next item to your cart.<br />
When all items are in the cart, click on the Checkout button.<br />

5.) How to download and install updates to the Becker PND?<br />
If you purchased pay update(s) and/or added free updates to the installation queue,<br />
please click on “My updates” button in the menu bar on the left hand side. This is the<br />
last step to update your Becker PND.<br />
The My updates screen shows you the list of:<br />
• purchased items (updates or extras),<br />
• free updates and extras added to the installation queue from Get Maps & More screen,<br />
• and special free updates (which are normally pay updates but Harman/Becker provides<br />
them to you free of charge).<br />
You can continue to download and install them by manually clicking on Download button<br />
one by one, or start the Installation Wizard.<br />
If any of the purchased items would not appear in this list, click on the Refresh The List<br />
button in the top left part of the screen, or alternatively restart the application.<br />
Using the installation wizard<br />
After clicking on the Installation Wizard button in the top right of the <strong>Content</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> 2.0<br />
window, you will be prompted to make a backup. We strongly re<strong>com</strong>mend to proceed with<br />
a backup before downloading and installing updates.<br />
13 © 2010 – United Navigation GmbH
Depending on your PC's USB port and Becker PND capabilities (support for USB 1.1 or USB<br />
2.0) the time needed o make a backup may vary. Please wait until the backup process is<br />
<strong>com</strong>pleted.<br />
After the backup is made, go back to My Updates screen and start the Installation Wizard<br />
again, and this time ignore the Backup warning. The wizard will continue and will ask you to<br />
confirm if you would like to install all listed updates. You can remove any item by<br />
unchecking it. Press the Install button on the bottom left side of the screen to continue.<br />
The Install button will only be enabled when there is enough free space on your Becker<br />
PND to install all selected items.<br />

A warning will appear to inform you that the battery should be at full capacity if possible to<br />
prevent the Traffic Assit switching off during the installation process, which can cause file<br />
corruption and malfunctioning of the Becker PND.<br />
15 © 2010 – United Navigation GmbH
Another warning appears to remind you that the updates can be installed only on one Becker<br />
PND, and after installation you cannot copy or move them to another Becker PND. If you<br />
changed your mind and rather want to install them to another Becker PND, this is the last<br />
point where you can abort the installation.<br />
After you accept it, <strong>Content</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> 2.0 will start downloading the necessary files one by<br />
one via the internet to your PC and copy them to your Becker PND.<br />
When the installation of all items is finished, a confirmation message appears on the screen.<br />

Manual download and installation<br />
The manual procedure is very similar to the above described automatic process, except that<br />
you manually start downloading items one by one on the My updates screen.<br />
When an item is downloaded to your PC, you click on the Install button and copy it to your<br />
Becker PND.<br />

Enter the backup name and click the OK button.<br />

Attention: Please do not disconnect your Becker PND during the process!<br />
