Chapter 4: Secure Digital (SD) Cards

4.1 Secure Digital (SD) Cards

The SD card slot on your Magellan RoadMate employs what is called a “push-push” method of locking and releasing. In other words, when you insert the card you must push it to lock it in, and to release it you must push it also.

Your Magellan RoadMate comes with a pre-installed regional SD Card (see “Regional SD Card Coverage” on page 9). You

should not need to remove or exchange this card except when additional geographical coverage is required. Please visit our website at www.magellanGPS.com to purchase additional regional SD Cards.

Make sure the unit is off.

“Hot-Swapping” or changing cards with the power on is not supported and may damage the unit and the SD card.

4.1.2 To remove the SD card:

1. Peel back the rubber gasket to expose the SD card slot. Do not completely remove the rubber gasket.

Do not attempt to pull the card out of the slot at this point.

2. Push the SD card into the slot as before until you hear a click.

3. Remove the SD card from the slot.

4. Replace the rubber gasket.

4.1.1 To Insert the SD Card:

5. Peel back the rubber gasket to expose the SD card slot. Do not completely remove the rubber gasket.

The SD card can only be inserted in one direction. Do not force the card into the slot.

6. Insert the SD card into the slot with the metal contacts going in first and the beveled edge to the left.

7. Push the SD card into the slot. You will feel slight resistance. Continue to push until you hear a click.
