IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS

The Magellan RoadMate receiver is a vehiclenavigation aid designed to assist you in arriving at your selected destinations. When using the Magellan RoadMate receiver, these safety rules must be followed to prevent accidents that can result in injury or death to yourself or others:

Please check the applicable regulations in your state regarding windshield mounting. Certain states prohibit the mounting of any items on your windshield. Go to www.magellanGPS.

com for alternative mounting solutions.

When driving, the need to view the display is minimal. Voice prompts will guide you to your destination. The driver should enter data or program the Magellan RoadMate receiver only when the vehicle is stationary. Only a vehicle passenger should enter data or program the

Magellan RoadMate receiver while the vehicle is moving. Do not become distracted by the receiver while driving, and always be fully aware of all driving conditions.

It is your responsibility to comply with all traffic laws and to use the Magellan RoadMate and mounting options in such a manner that the user is in compliance with applicable laws.

Roads, points of interest (POIs), business and service locations may change over time. As a result the database may contain inaccuracy. Also, the database does not include, analyse, process, consider, or reflect any of the following: legal restrictions (such as vehicle type, weight, height, width, load and speed restrictions); road slope or gradient; bridge height, width, weight or other limits; population density; neighborhood quality or safety; availability or proximity of police, emergency rescue, medical or other assistance; construction work zones or hazards; road or lane closures; road, traffic or traffic facilities’ safety or condition; weather conditions; pavement characteristics or conditions; special events; traffic congestion. It is your responsibility to disregard any unsafe, hazardous or illegal route suggestions.

Keep the Magellan RoadMate receiver safe from extreme temperature conditions. For example, do not leave it exposed to direct sunlight for an extended period of time.

Take care when mounting the Magellan

RoadMate receiver in your vehicle, whether using the windshield mount or other mounts, that it does not obstruct the driver’s view of the road, interfere with the operation of the vehicle’s safety devices such as air bags, or present a hazard to occupants of the vehicle should the receiver be dislodged while driving.

It is your responsibility to assess the risks associated with damage to your vehicle or vehicle occupants as the result of your choices in mounting the Magellan RoadMate receiver.

Temperature

The maximum operating temperature is 140°F

(60°C).

Battery

The battery in the Magellan RoadMate receiver is rechargeable and should not be removed. In the event that it should need to be replaced, please contact Magellan Technical Support.

Only use the car charger approved for/ supplied with your Magellan RoadMate receiver. Use of another type of car charger will result in fire or electric shock.

For safety reasons, the battery in your

Magellan RoadMate receiver will stop charging when the ambient temperature is less than

32°F (0°C) or more than 113°F (45°C).

It will take approximately 4 hours of charging the Magellan RoadMate receiver through the vehicle power adapter or optional AC adapter to obtain a full battery charge. It is

recommended that you charge the battery initially for at least 2 hours.

Use only the charger approved for your

Magellan RoadMate receiver.

Estimated usage of the Magellan RoadMate on battery power is approximately 2 hours.

Magellan RoadMate GPS Receiver

The Magellan® RoadMate® receiver is a vehicle navigation product that utilizes

GPS signals from satellites to calculate your precise location and compute navigational information that can be used to guide you to your destination. Knowing its position and movement, it can then overlay this information on detailed maps to provide a visual representation of your location.

With the Magellan RoadMate receiver you can:

Save searches and addresses under the

OneTouch™ menu for fast, convenient access to favorite destinations.

Store your home address and quickly get routing details to your home.

Enter and save addresses in your address book that can be accessed at any time and get routing information to that address.

Route to an address that you enter using the

QuickSpell™ and Smart City search for easy, errorless address entry.

Route to any point of interest (POI) that has been preloaded into your Magellan RoadMate receiver.

Create a route with multiple destinations.

Handy for business people who need routing information to many destinations.

View POIs that are near exits ahead of you on the highway. The Highway Exit POIs function provides you with a list of gas stations, restaurants, hotels and auto repair shops located nearby exits you are approaching while travelling on the interstate.

Customize your Magellan RoadMate receiver to meet your needs using the Settings menu.

Receive traffic information so as to avoid delays in your travel.

The user interface for the Magellan RoadMate receiver is easy and simple to follow once you understand the basics. You may never need to refer to this manual, but if you do, we have tried to present it in a form that makes it easy for you to access the function you are trying to use and follow the steps provided.

The Magellan RoadMate receiver has a built-in battery so, in most cases, you will be able to follow these instructions while reading them on your computer screen without plugging the Magellan RoadMate receiver to the AC power using an optional AC power adapter.

You should note that while indoors you may not get strong enough satellite signals to compute your location, so your location information may not be updated. However, the power of the GPS chipset installed in the Magellan RoadMate receiver will pick up satellite signals in some very demanding locations. You may find that the Magellan

RoadMate receiver is computing a position, even indoors. Even with the improved GPS chipset, the receiver may not be able to always compute a fix indoors. This is especially important to note if you are in a garage or other overhanging structure. If you find you are not getting strong enough satellite signals while in a garage or other structure, move to a location where there is a clear view of the sky and you should immediately see an improvement in signal strength.

The Magellan RoadMate receiver includes

Voice Alerts (Text-to-Speech) for driving instructions.

This document is set up to be printed on 8.5” x 11” paper should you desire a printed version for your reference.

• When entering a street or city name it is not necessary to use accented letters. You can enter city and streets names using only standard characters.

QuickSpell

Another feature the Magellan RoadMate receiver uses to make entering cities and streets easier is a feature known as QuickSpell.

As letters are entered for a city or street the

Quickspell feature checks the database for cities or streets that begin with the letters entered. Any letters that could not be used to spell a city or street name are greyed out. This provides quick and error-free city and street name entry.

Smart City Search

The Magellan RoadMate receiver utilizes a feature known as “Smart City Search”. Smart

City Search attempts to predict the city you are looking for. This prediction is based upon two factors; your position and cities you’ve gone to before.

Whenever entering or searching on an address the first screen displayed is the Enter

City Name keyboard.

Selecting QWERTY or ABC Keyboard

2. Tap the Settings icon .

3. Tap Keyboard.

4. Select QWERTY or ABC.

Notes on Entering Data

If you are having trouble getting the results you expected, here are a few useful tips.

• Check for apostrophes and hyphens. If you do not see the POI or street name you are looking for in the list, check to see if the name has an apostrophe or hyphen.

• The more characters you enter, the smaller the list of possible options is from which to choose.

As letters are entered, Quickspell checks the database for cities beginning with the letters entered. Keys that don’t spell a city in the database are greyed out and Smart City Search displays a suggested city in the text field.

6

If the city is correct, tap the button to continue.

The button can be tapped to display the list of cities that begin with the letters entered.

Quickspell and Smart City Search makes entering an address quick and easy with little chance for errors.
