Hi, The best to charge the first time is over nite if possible. If not, at least 4 hours. Yes, it is 0000 to pair. -----Original Message----- From: gps-talkusers-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:gps-talkusers-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Carol Pearson Sent: Wednesday, January 09, 2008 5:48 To: GPS Mailing List Subject: [gps-talkusers] NEW HOLUX M1000 Hi Chris - or anyone out there! My M1000 has arrived and I forgot to ask how long I need to charge first time around and then afterwards. I presume you just pair in the normal way but please advise whether I enter 0000. Thanks. -- Carol carol.pearson@xxxxxxxxxxxx
