Deactivation and Licence Update
The CoPilot desktop software contains street-level
maps for all of Europe, and CoPilot is offered with
different licences that allow you to use some or all
of these maps on your Pocket PC. Licences are
available for the following:
(1) Single region - Detailed street-level
maps for any of the following regions: Alps Ski
Region, Benelux (Belgium, the Netherlands, and
Luxembourg), France, Germany, Italy, Pyrenees,
Scandinavia, and the United Kingdom.
(2) Pan-Europe - Complete street-level maps for
all of Europe.
After purchasing the licence, go to Menu > Options > Licensing, select Update
Licence/ Activate, and input your new activation code. The CoPilot desktop
software already contains complete European maps, which can now be download-
ed to your Pocket PC for in-vehicle use. If you purchased CoPilot with a single
region licence and later want to use street maps from other regions, you will need
to purchase an update licence from your dealer.
Speech Volume
To hear CoPilot’s voice prompts, the volume on your Pocket PC must be turned all
the way up. In the Pocket PC Start menu, go to Settings and tap on Sounds and
Notifications. Under System Volume, move the slide bar all the way to the right.
Or use your Pocket PC’s keypad when CoPilot is open: tap up until you reach the
maximum volume.
If you installed the TTS (text to speech) voice option, you may also want
to make sure the “Amplify Speech Volume” option is on — tap Menu
> Options > Settings and tap the Guidance tab. This option should be
checked.
