Using a different fuse or bridging the contacts with a wire is highly dangerous and can lead to serious damage. Continued on next page 5 Between tall trees with dense foliage About GPS GPS (Global Positioning System) satellites continuously emit signals for positioning on the Earth. As a GPS antenna receives these signals, users can be informed of their location (latitude, longitude and altitude) anywhere on the Earth. Information must be received from three satellites in order to obtain two-dimensional fixes (altitude and longitude), and four satellites are required for three-dimensional positioning (latitude, longitude and altitude). As GPS satellites are controlled by the U.S. Department of Defense, a deliberate margin of error between a few feet (a few meters) and 30 feet

(10 meters) exists. As a result, the GPS navigation system may include an error of between 30 feet (10 meters) and about 700 feet (200 meters), depending on the circumstances. As GPS information is obtained using signal from satellites, it may be impossible or difficult to obtain the information when using the system in the following locations:

Maintenance Fuse replacement If the car cradle does not function correctly when connected to the car battery adapter, make sure that the fuse in the car battery adapter has not burned out. If it has burned out, replace the fuse by the following procedures. Fuse to tighten Cigarette lighter plug End of the plug to remove 1 Pull the car battery adapter out of the cigarette lighter socket. 2 Detach the end of the plug by turning it counterclockwise. 3 Replace the fuse with a new (identical rating) one. 4 Reattach the end of the plug by firmly turning it clockwise. Notes

When replacing the fuse, use one of the correct amperage, as stated on the fuse case. (2.5 A, 125 V DC, approx. 30 mm)

Do not replace the fuse with a wire. If the replaced fuse immediately burns out again, consult your car dealer. Continued on next page 75

Replacing the lithium battery Under normal conditions, battery will last approximately 1 year. (The service life may be shorter, depending on the conditions of use.) When the battery becomes weak, the range of the wireless card remote commander becomes shorter. Replace the battery with a new CR2025 lithium battery. Use of any other battery may present a risk of fire or explosion. x

+ side up Notes on lithium battery

Keep the lithium battery out of the reach of children. Should the battery be swallowed, immediately consult a doctor.

Wipe the battery with a dry cloth to assure a good contact.

Be sure to observe the correct polarity when installing the battery.

Do not hold the battery with metallic tweezers, otherwise a short-circuit may occur. WARNING Battery may explode if mistreated. Do not recharge, disassemble, or dispose of in fire. 76 Troubleshooting The following checklist and the manuals supplied with your CLI handheld will help you remedy problems you may encounter with your unit. Before going through the checklist below, check the connection and operating procedures. Sony recommends that you make a note of displayed messages or alerts for future references. General My CLI handheld is not held by holding arm. tCheck the size of the holding arm when use the supplied holding arm for your CLI handheld. Do not use your CLI handheld if it is not compatible with the car cradle. tCheck if you are using the correct holding arm for your CLI handheld. There are two holding arms supplied. Power The Power LED does not turn on when my CLI handheld is mounted in the car cradle.

Verify the ignition switch is in the ON position.

Verify if your CLI handheld is compatible with the car cradle.

Check the connection of the car battery adapter to the cigarette lighter socket.

Check the connection between the car cradle and the car battery adapter.

Check the fuse in the car battery adapter.

Check the battery level of your CLI handheld. The battery cannot be charged.

If the battery of your CLI handheld is low, the battery cannot be charged because the CLI handheld cannot activate.

If the temperature around the battery ex ceeds a certain temperature, the battery cannot be charged to protect the battery. tStop charging the battery until the temperature around the battery drops. Continued on next page 77 Operation The Car Installer is not performed properly. tYou cannot install the Car Cradle basic software on Memory Stick media. Be sure to download the Car Cradle basic software to your CLI handheld by the HotSync operation, then perform Car Installer. I cannot operate normal CLI applications. While your CLI handheld in-vehicle mode, the car cradle system restricts certain applications/functions on your CLI handheld for safety purposes. You cannot operate normal CLI applications/functions during in-vehicle mode. The HotSync screen is activated when my CLI handheld is mounted in the car cradle. tCancel the HotSync operation by tapping the cancel icon on the HotSync screen after detaching your CLI handheld from the car cradle, then remount the CLI handheld in the car cradle.

Are the connectors clean?

tClean the connectors with a cloth, etc., if they are not clean. The Car Launcher screen is not activated.

Is the Car Cradle basic software installed?

Are the connectors clean?

tClean the connectors with a cloth, etc., if they are not clean.

tDisable the color changing mode (page 67), the screensaver (page 65) and the Today application (page 67). 78 GPS GPS signal cannot be received.

The system cannot receive GPS signals due to an obstruction. tMove your car somewhere clear.

GPS signal reception is low. tActivate the GPS Meter application and check the GPS signal values.

The GPS antenna is incorrectly installed. tInstall the GPS antenna where the signal is not interrupted by the body of the car, and install the antenna horizontally on the roof. For details, refer to the Installation/Connections manual.

The GPS antenna is not properly connected to the car cradle. tInsert the connector of the antenna cable until it clicks into the GPS ANT port of car cradle. For details, refer to the Installation/Connections manual. The map of my current GPS location does not match the current road when using the StreetFinder application. The error margin of the signal from the GPS satellites is too large. An error margin of a few hundred meters can exist in the worst case. Function The built-in speaker does not work for the Text-to-voice function. Is the volume too low? Is the ATT on?

The volume adjustment and ATT button does not work. You can adjust the volume level only while the Text-to-voice application is being used or read out. The FM transmitter output does not function.

Buttons may not function depending on the operating situation. The dimmer does not function. tMake sure the dimmer position is AUTO (page 12). When the ignition switch is in the OFF position, an alarm sounds and the screen flashes. This is the caution alarm function. When the ignition switch is in the OFF position, no power is being supplied to the car cradle since it uses power from the cigarette lighter socket. tTo stop the caution alarm, refer to page 27. Error displays/Messages When error displays/messages appear in the screen, follow the instructions on error message. If these solutions do not help improve the situation, perform a reset of your CLI handheld. b For details about performing a reset, refer to the manuals supplied with your CLI handheld. 80 Specifications ALL Operating temperature 5 C to 35 C
