Favourites are places / addresses that you want to keep on file.

To add an address to your list of Favourites ...

From the Main Menu, tap Add Favourite.

You can then select the location of the Favourite from: an address (that you enter), your Home, or a recent destination, a point of interest, your current position/location, or a position that you tap on the map browser.

Depending on software version, the volume control opens when tapping the left or center area of the information bar in the lower part of the driving view.

It is likely that your battery is too low, or "dead". Hence, it will not start up. Plug in the device to charge it for a while before you try to start it again. It may take a "longer" time to start up (after you haven't used it for a while), so make sure it is plugged in as soon as it starts up, and have lots of patience while it initialize/boots, etc. (for a few minutes -- or for many minutes !). Turning it off and on again (while it is booting, etc.) because you think it's hung (dead), may cause memory/program problems that is a real pain to recover later.

Hi there,
Can you tell me the instructions that you got? I may be able to walk you through the settings.
Looking forward to your speedy response.
