Chapter 11: Navigation Basic Operation
11.1 Turning the Magellan RoadMate On Out of the Box
Slide the RESET switch, located at the top of the unit (see “Top View” on page 6) to position
“1”. If power is connected properly or if the battery is charged sufficiently, the Magellan screen
will appear followed by the Warning screen. To comply with the warnings, press
OK . Next, the
Quick Tips screen will appear. It is recommended to view the Quick Tips to better familiarize
yourself with the functionality of the Magellan RoadMate. Otherwise, select
ESC to skip viewing
the Quick Tips at this time. By default, the navigation application will launch and the
Destination screen will appear.
11.1.1 Suspend Power or “Sleep” Mode
While the RESET switch is in position “1”, you can suspend power or, put the unit in “sleep” mode by pressing the
SUSPEND key (see “Front View” on page 4). While in “sleep” mode, the unit will turn off. Route guidance will resume
normally when the unit wakes up. Under normal operating conditions, battery power can be maintained for up to two weeks
while in “sleep” mode. It is recommended that you use the Suspend key rather than switching the unit off in order to acquire
the GPS signal faster upon resuming normal operation.
11.1.2 Power Management
The Magellan RoadMate can be configured to automatically go into “sleep” mode after a specified amount of time. Press the
MENU key on the unit then, select System Settings and select Power Management . Select the Auto Power Off time and
then, select ESC . For more information on Power Management, see “Power Management” on page 87.
11.2 Resetting the Magellan RoadMate
To turn power off completely, or to reset the unit should it stop responding, slide the RESET switch to position “0”. Wait for
approximately 10 seconds and then slide the RESET switch to position “1”. If a route was active at the time the unit was
reset, powering the unit back on will prompt you to resume, or cancel the active route.
11.3 Adjusting the Volume
The VOLUME CONTROL lever is located at the top of the Magellan RoadMate (see “Top View” on page 6). Use the lever to
set the volume of the speaker to a desired level. The volume level indicator will appear on screen.
11.4 Repeating the Last Command
While routing to a destination, if you missed the last verbal command, you can repeat it by pressing the VOLUME CONTROL
lever down.
11.5 Making Selections
The Magellan RoadMate comes equipped with a touch screen. To make a menu selection, or enter characters, simply touch
the screen in the location of the item you wish to select.
You can also use the NAVIGATION key (see “Front View” on page 4) to scroll around the screen and highlight the item to
select. When the desired item is highlighted, press the ENTER key to select the item.
