Verify your Device
    1) Prior to downloading the latest FreshMap, please confirm which product you own. You can
        verify this by checking the Product Information screen. This can be accessed by selecting
        Options -> Settings -> Options -> Product Information from the Main Menu. (21x0max devices

       This FreshMap update is not compatible with any NAVIGON products purchased outside of
       North America. Performing this update on a device purchased elsewhere could make your
       device inoperable.


Downloading your FreshMap
The FreshMap update is approximately 2GB in size so a high-speed Internet connection is
recommended. During the download your computer could be occupied for 5 hours or more,
depending on your connection speed. Please plan accordingly.

For a faster download, you may want to use a download management tool, such as the free tools
from these sites:

   •   http://freedownloadmanager.org
   •   http://www.downthemall.net/

Using a download management tool could help your download complete successfully and allow you
to resume the download in the event of an intermittent connection.

   1) FreshMap updates are available through the MyNAVIGON section of the NAVIGON US website.
      You can get there by clicking here: https://www.NAVIGON.com/site/us/en/my_NAVIGON/.
   2) Login with your existing password and login or create a new account if needed.

   4) Choose the “Get your update here” link
   5) Click the picture associated with your device to begin the download.
   6) When prompted, save the downloaded file to your computer’s desktop.



Unzipping the FreshMap
   1) The FreshMap update is delivered as a ZIP file and needs to be unzipped prior to transferring to
       your SD Card. On a Windows computer, double-click the ZIP file to unzip the archive.


   2) Once you have unzipped the file, you should have a new folder on your desktop with the same
      name as the ZIP file.


Installing the FreshMap
CAUTION: You will lose all previous destinations when you delete the existing files. If you are
comfortable with manually moving files, see the instructions below for advanced users for steps to
preserve these values.

The FreshMap installation process may occupy your computer for 1 hour or longer. Please plan
accordingly.

   1) To install the FreshMap to your device, you will need to use an external SD Card reader. SD Card
      readers may be purchased at any electronics retailer. Fully power off your device then remove
      the SD card and insert it into an SD Card Reader attached to your computer.

   2) When your SD Card is connected to your computer, it will appear as a new drive on your
      computer.


   3) Double-click on the new drive to view the contents of the SD Card

   4) NAVIGON recommends making a copy of your SD card, prior to installing the update. Simply
      copy all of the files from the new drive into a backup folder on your computer.
   5) Delete the existing files from your SD Card.
      CAUTION: You will lose all previous destinations when you delete the existing MN6 folder. If
      you are comfortable with manually moving files, see the instructions below for advanced
      users for steps to preserve these values.

   6) For Macintosh users, you should now empty the trash can, to fully remove the deleted files from
       the SD card. Please hold down the ‘option’ key while selecting “empty trash.”
   7) Open the new folder that you extracted from the ZIP file
   8) Copy/Paste the new files that you downloaded and extracted from the zip onto the SD Card.
   9) Wait for the files to copy over to the device/SD Card. This can take up to 30 minutes so please
       plan accordingly.
   10) When the progress bar reaches 100%, eject your SD card reader from your computer. You may
       now re-insert the SD card into your device.
   11) Turn the device back on by pressing and holding the POWER button for 2 seconds.


Preserving existing user settings and destinations (Advanced users only)

   1) These steps do NOT apply to 2100max or 2120max devices! You are getting an upgrade to
      MN7 software and cannot preserve your user settings with this upgrade!
   2) Your NAVIGON device saves user data in a series of files and folders on your SD card. If you wish
      to retain these values, you will need to copy the existing files from the backup copy of your
      original MN6 folder.
   3) The following files and folders will need to be copied from your original MN6 folder and placed
      into the new MN6 folder:
               Settings\Recent.storage
               Settings\Favorites.storage
               Settings\Routes folder
               Settings\Speech Recognition folder (7100 devices only)
               LogBook folder
