Setting up the Meridian is a simple two-step process: installing the batteries
and initializing the Meridian.
The Magellan Meridian uses two AA batteries that are installed from the
back through the battery cover.
You can expect to get up to 14 hours of
usage on two AA batteries with the backlight turned off. Using the
backlight will shorten the battery life
significantly.
With the backlight on
continuously, you can expect to get
approximately 6 hours of usage from two AA
batteries.
To remove the battery cover, push the two
buttons on the cover fully to the left and lift
the battery cover away from the receiver.
Insert the new batteries as shown, making
sure that the batteries are installed with the correct
polarity.
Replace the cover and push the two buttons fully to the right.
Verify that
the cover is locked in place.
How much time do I have to replace the batteries?
Any
waypoints or routes you have created are stored in permanent
memory.
Present position and time data is not stored in permanent
memory but will be held in memory for at least 12 hours without
batteries installed.
Always turn the Meridian off before removing the batteries
or turning off external power.
Failure to do so can cause loss
or corruption of data.
