https://support.google.com/android/?hl=en#topic=7313011

5.3. Google Play:

5.3.1. Recommendation: use GPS and let the Device achieve 3D position lock before you

sign into your Google account (that will let Google choose the correct version of

their apps based on your location);

5.3.2. the Device has been pre-certified with Google. To use Google Services (and Play

Store), simply log into your Google account;

5.3.3. you might need to let the Google apps to update, before you will get full use of

Google Play Store app. To check for updates, open Play Store app and before you

sign-in, open the Overflow Menu (three dots top right corner) and select “Check

for updates”:

5.3.4. you can use the same Google account on the Device, which you use on your

Android smartphone. That will let you enjoy apps you might have already

purchased also on the Device (subject to operating system compatibility and

subject to other limitations Google might chose to impose on your purchases).

5.3.5. It might take a while, before your previous purchases appear as available for

download. In exceptional cases, you might need to clear the cache for both Google

Services and Google Play Store apps, perform manual Google apps update and sign

into your Google account again (refer to Google Certification manual on our

Support web page).

6. Use –Carpe Iter specifics

6.1. CI Pad automatically starts when it is connected to power (USB wall charger, Holder/M8

charging cable).

6.2. The Device comes with pre-installed Carpe Manager app (“Manager app”):

ULW Czech, s.r.o.

V Ráji 34, Praha 9 - Hostavice, 198 00, CZ, IČO: 28256212, DIČ: CZ28256212

6.3. The Manager app provides additional functionality and is used to download software

specific for the Device and its updates. Please refer to our web pages for details.

6.4. It is essential to regularly check the Manager app for updates and new downloads available

for the Device. These updates might not only enhance functionality, but also remedy known

issues.

7. Charging/Battery Indicator

7.1. The Device can be charged via it’s USB-C port, charging pads on the back of the Device and

M8 connector.

7.2. The Device will automatically start, when power is detected on charging input. The feature

is conditional to sufficient battery level (the device will not start automatically, if the

battery is depleted at the time power was detected on charging inputs).

7.3. Use the provided USB wall charger to charge the Device through the USB port. NEVER use

other brands quick USB chargers (especially quick chargers can damage the USB and

charging circuitry).

7.4. For charging the Device on your motorcycle, you must use M8 charging cable with the

specific version of Carpe Iter proprietary power source included in the kit. Using any other

power source will void your warranty. Do NOT replace the connectors between the Holder /

M8 charging cable and the power source nor otherwise interfere with the wiring. Re-wiring

the connection between the Holder / M8 charging cable and the power source will void

your warranty.

7.5. NEVER charge the Device via USB and M8 charging connector simultaneously. NEVER

charge the Device via USB and Holder simultaneously.

7.6. USB-C port must not be used, when the Device is employed on a motorcycle (except

when stationary with engine off). The shocks and vibrations the Device will receive when

riding would damage the USB port and opening the USB port will compromise water and

dust resistance of the Device.

7.7. The Device charging capacity is limited to approximately 2A. If too many services are

running on the Device, the current consumption might exceed the charging capacity, which

will result in gradual battery level decrease, even when charging. Almost 70% of charging

ULW Czech, s.r.o.

V Ráji 34, Praha 9 - Hostavice, 198 00, CZ, IČO: 28256212, DIČ: CZ28256212

capacity is drawn by the LCD when set to full brightness. In case of increased requirements

on energy consumption reduce LCD brightness.

7.8. The Device’s charging capacity is more than sufficient for casual use (LCD to full brightness,

GPS on, one actively running navigation application with track recording).

7.9. CARPE Manager app will automatically cycle the battery between 60-80% when charging

via USB wall charger, Holder and M8 charging cable. It will take in consideration your

battery level, temperature, calibration accuracy, system load input current and screen

brightness to adjust the charging in more than 40 possible combinations. Under certain

conditions charging to 100% will be automatically allowed by the charging algorithms, such

as in case the battery level indicator needs calibration (see Section 7.12).

7.10. The power management can be turned off by disabling AI charging algorithms, which will

allow charging to 100% capacity (it is not recommended to keep the Pad charged to 100%,

since it can cause premature battery failure and overheating):

7.11. System battery level indicator (battery level shown on main screen) is for orientation only.

It may be necessary to calibrate the battery level indicator from time to time to achieve

accurate readings (refer to Troubleshooting section). Regardless of the values shown by the

System battery level indicator, the real battery voltage is the only relevant criteria for the

Device’s operation (even when the System battery indicator is showing 1%, the Device will

not shut down until the battery voltage goes down to 3,5V).

7.12. The Carpe Manager app will attempt to calibrate the system battery level indicator at times

the deviation from real capacity will exceed acceptable parameters. The calibration process

ULW Czech, s.r.o.

V Ráji 34, Praha 9 - Hostavice, 198 00, CZ, IČO: 28256212, DIČ: CZ28256212

may take a few minutes. During the calibration, the battery level indicator can show various

values, but they will settle after completing the calibration procedure.

7.13. Real battery level can be verified in the Manager app - Power&Charge (refer to Section 7.9)

or on the System pull down menu:

7.14. System battery level will not be equal to voltage level most of the time. This is normal

(System battery indicator is not linear to voltage level).

7.15. Voltage of fully charged battery after disconnecting from charger will be around 4,2V.

Voltage of fully depleted battery is 3,5V. When the voltage level of the battery meets 3,5V

or drops below, the Device will automatically shut down to prevent damage to the battery.

8. Operating conditions / instructions

8.1. The Device is not designed to be placed on your vehicle permanently. When not in use,

remove the Device from your vehicle and store it in a safe place with temperature between

0 –35°C.

8.2. The Device should not be operated outside ambient temperature range between 0-40°C or

the battery contained in the Device or it’s electronics can be damaged. The Device has

temperature protection system, which might cause the Device not to start or shut down

automatically, when the operating temperature range is exceeded. This automated

protection system is only a fail-safe and does not relieve you of the need to ensure yourself

correct operating conditions.

8.3. Considerable heat is generated by the Device’s LCD and when charging. When high ambient

temperatures are present, overheating might be prevented by reducing LCD brightness

and/or disabling charging. While charging on the motorcycle, the Device will attempt to

cycle between 60 and 80% battery capacity, which not only preserves the battery, but also

reduces the chances of overheating (the charging algorithms might attempt to reach 100%

battery capacity in a particular case, if full battery charge is required to calibrate battery

level indicator and/or the temperature and other conditions allow that);

8.4. If you need to use the Device in sub-zero temperatures, make sure the Device is not

thoroughly cooled below 0°C before you start it (do not leave it on the bike). During use,

ULW Czech, s.r.o.

V Ráji 34, Praha 9 - Hostavice, 198 00, CZ, IČO: 28256212, DIČ: CZ28256212

heat is generated inside the Device, so use in sub-zero temperatures is possible. Never use

the Device below minus 5°C (the heat generated by the Device’s operation might not be

sufficient to ensure minimum operating temperature).

8.5. Protect the Device from heat sources that could cause the temperature inside the Device

exceed the operating parameters mentioned above.

8.6. When your vehicle is stationary, protect the Device from direct sunshine, which can cause

the internal Device’s temperature to rise well above the ambient temperature (remove it

from the Holder or cover it).

8.7. Long term exposure to sunshine can cause LCD fading (such fading is not considered a

defect).

8.8. While riding in wet conditions (e.g. rain), protect the Device from direct airstream (position

it behind a wind shield / mask). At high speeds, the rain will create pressure equal to jet

water, which exceeds the Device’s protection rating.

8.9. When the Device is not in use, power it off to prevent complete battery depletion. The

Device will power down automatically when the battery is close to depletion. Nevertheless,

the Device still consumes small amount of energy even when in OFF state, which could lead

to deep battery discharge, if the Device were powered down at low battery level or even

powered down automatically because of depleted battery. Battery will be damaged or

destroyed by deep discharge. To prevent battery damage, ensure that a depleted battery is

re-charged immediately to at least 50% capacity.

8.10. If the Device is not in use for longer periods of time (more than 1 week), make sure the

battery is charged to at least 60% before it is powered down.

8.11. Protect the charging mating pads on the back of the Device from touching electrically

conductive material / liquids or the Device might be short-circuited (and destroyed as

consequence).

9. Carpe Iter Holder

9.1. The Carpe Iter Holder is specifically designed for the Device. Do not use the Holder for any

other equipment than the Device.

9.2. The Holder will ensure secure mounting of the Device.

9.3. The Holder includes a power source that was designed specifically for the Device. DO NOT

use the power source to power any other equipment than the Device.

9.5. Holder installation requires at least basic mechanical and electrical skills. If you are in

doubt, have the Holder installed by a professional workshop.

9.6. Mounting the Holder

9.6.1. The base plate of the Holder contains 6 nuts for M5 screws.

9.6.2. The mounting nuts create a standard AMPS hole pattern (30x38mm) in the

landscape orientation.

9.6.3. The Holder must be mounted by at least 4 screws forming a rectangular shape to

ensure stability and vibration resistance.

9.6.4. Whenever possible, mount the Holder as close to its centerline as possible (i.e. use

mounting nuts in the center, not on the edge of the base plate).

9.6.5. The Holder is to be mounted on Fantic EXF Rally stock tower in the following

fashion:
