Step 4: Formatting the USB Flash Drive
Insert your USB flash drive into your computer's USB port. Before proceeding, back up any important data stored on the flash drive as it will be formatted during this process. Right-click on the flash drive icon and select 'Format.' Choose the FAT32 file system and click 'Start' to format the drive.
Step 5: Transferring the Update File to the USB Flash Drive
Once the flash drive is formatted, locate the downloaded update file on your computer and copy it. Paste the update file into the root directory of the USB flash drive (i.e., the main folder, not inside any subfolders).

- The update process will take some time, so be patient and avoid removing the USB flash drive or turning off the ignition during this process.
- Once the update is complete, you will receive a notification on the screen.
Step 7: Verifying the Update
After the update, it is essential to verify if the update was successful. You can do this by checking the software version number in the settings menu of your DVD 800 Navi system.
And that's it! You have successfully updated your DVD 800 Navi system. By regularly updating your system, you can ensure the best navigational experience and stay up-to-date with the latest features and improvements.
