Attaching the Magellan RoadMate receiver to the Car Cradle Slide the Magellan RoadMate receiver on the car cradle so that the slot on the Magellan RoadMate receiver aligns with the tab on the car cradle. Slide the Magellan RoadMate receiver all the way down until it rests on the 'feet'. You should notice a click when the receiver is fully mounted in the cradle. Adjusting the Mount for Optimum Viewing Loosen the adjustment locking knobs and position the Magellan RoadMate receiver for optimum viewing. Once set, tighten the locking knobs. (Never attempt to adjust the mount while driving.) Connecting Power Plug the end of the vehicle power adapter into a 12VDC vehicle power receptacle. Connect the other end of the cable to the Magellan RoadMate receiver's power connector as shown. Note: Some vehicles apply power to the vehicle power receptacle only when the ignition is on. Checking Connection and Final Adjustments If the power indicator light on the vehicle power adaptor is on, power is being supplied to the Magellan RoadMate receiver. If it is not on, check the cable connection to the vehicle power receptacle. If the light is still not on, turn the vehicle's ignition on. Power Switch (Configurations) The Magellan RoadMate can have two possible power switch configurations. You may have either a switch that slides and springs back or you may have a receiver with a 3-way power switch. 3-Way Switch • Slide to the left to turn the receiver on. • Slide to the center position to turn the receiver off. • Slide to the right to reset the receiver. 4
