Magellan ROADMATE COMMERCIAL 9270T-M Instruction Manual

Safety
This Magellan receiver is a vehicle-navigation aid designed to
assist you
in arriving to your selected destinations. When using
this Magellan product, these safety rules must
be followed to
prevent accidents that can result
in injury or death to yourself or
others:
• Please check with your state or local law enforcement for
applicable regulations regarding mounting to the windshield.
Go to www.magellanGPS.com for alternate 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 receiver only when the
vehicle
is stopped. Only a vehicle passenger should enter
data or program the receiver while the vehicle
is moving.
• It
is your responsibility to comply with all traffic laws.
• Every attempt
is made to ensure that the database is
accurate. However, roadways, points of interest (POls), and
business and service locations may change over time. The
database does not include, analyze, process, consider, or
reflect any of the following: legal restrictions (such as
vehicular type, weight, height, width, load and speed
restrictions); road slope or grade; bridge height, width,
weight, or other limits; population density; neighborhood
quality or safety; availability or proximity of law enforcement,
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 receiver safe from extreme temperature conditions.
For example, do not leave it exposed to direct sunlight for
an
extended period of time. The maximum operating
temperature
is 140°F (60°C).
•
Ta~e care when mounting the receiver in your vehicle,
whether using the windshield mount or other mount or
accessories, 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.
You assume the risks associated with damage to your
vehicle or vehicle occupants as the result
of your choices in
mounting the receiver.
• The battery is rechargeable and should not be removed.
In
the event it should need to be replaced, please contact
Magellan Technical Support.

Installation
Choose a Location. The Magellan RoadMate receiver needs a clear
view
of
the sky to receive signals from the GPS satellites so choose a
location with an unobstructed view
of
the sky, commonly on
or
near the
windshield.
Clean the Surface. Clean the area on the windshield and allow the
surface to dry before attaching the mount.
Install the Car Cradle.
Attach the USB connector to
the cradle as shown. Hold
the cradle assembly firmly
against the window surface
and push lever towards the
base.
(The Car Cradle shown here
may be differentfrom the
Car
Cradle supplied with your
Magellan RoadMate receiver, but the installation is the same for all
cradle styles.)
Attach the Receiver.
Connect Power. It is recommended that you connect the Magellan
RoadMate using the vehicle powercable before using itforthe first time.
The internal battery will begin charging as soon as power is supplied to
the Magellan RoadMate receiver through the vehicle power cable.
(When the light on the vehicle power cable illuminates, it is properly
connected to vehicle power. Note some vehicles require that the ignition
be on before power is delivered to the power receptacle.)

battery level. However, the battery does not need to be fully charged to
use the Magellan RoadMate receiver.
