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

receiver on.

to turn the receiver off.
