Start Up – Installing the SD Card
Before using your Sapphire Plus, you will need to install the micro SD Card included with the device. The micro SD Card
comes complete with a digital map of the UK and Ireland or Western Europe depending on the model purchased and is also
where the AURA™ camera database is stored if you choose to subscribe and download it.
Remove the micro SD card from its packaging and insert it into the micro SD Card slot. Finally switch on the device by
pressing and holding the standby power button for 2 seconds. As soon as the device is switched on, the Sapphire Plus will
automatically synchronise with the micro SD Card. Once the synchronisation is completed, the micro SD Card will not function
with any other device. Your Sapphire Plus is now ready to navigate and the camera database can be downloaded if necessary.
Please note that if the unit does not activate when you press and hold the standby power button for 2 seconds
it may require charging. Refer to the section on ‘Power Connection and Charging’ later in this manual.
