A Becker sat nav update ensures that you are always up to date with the latest navigation and can calculate routes quickly and accurately. With a structured approach, the update will run smoothly and without any problems.
Becker: Prepare sat nav update
To successfully update your Becker sat nav, you need to do a few things beforehand. This will help you avoid complications and save time during the process:
- Check compatibility: Make sure that your Becker sat nav is still supported and that updates are available. Some older models may no longer receive updates.
- Download Content Manager: Download the “Becker Content Manager” from the official website and install the software on your computer. This application is essential for managing updates and content for your device.
- Connect your device: Connect your navigation device to the computer using a USB cable. Make sure that the device is turned on and recognized by the computer.
- Create a user account: If you do not yet have an account, register with the Content Manager using your e-mail address. A user account allows you to access available updates and additional content.
- Have your license key ready: For map updates that are subject to a charge, you will need a valid license key. You can purchase this in the Content Manager or, if you already have it, enter it during the update process.
Performing the Becker Navi update
Once the preparations are complete, you can proceed with updating your navigation device:
- Create a backup: First, create a backup of your current device settings and data using the Content Manager. This makes it possible to restore the previous state in case of problems.
- Search for updates: You can use the Content Manager to search for available updates for your device. Click on “Maps and more” to view a list of available updates.
- Select map material: Select the desired map updates. When doing so, take into account the available storage space on your device, as extensive map material requires a corresponding amount of space.
- Download and installation: Start downloading the selected updates. The download time depends on the size of the files and your internet connection. After downloading, installation begins automatically. Do not disconnect the device from the computer during this process.
- Completing and checking: After successful installation, we recommend restarting the navigation device. Then check the functionality by planning a test route, for example.
