Magellan®TRX7 CS Pro

The Magellan TRX7 CS Pro is an Off-Road vehicle navigation aid
designed to assist you in driving on your route and arriving at your
selected destinations.
Please check with your state or local law enforcement for applicable
regulations regarding mounting to the windshield.
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 (POIs), and business and service
locations may change over time.
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).
Take 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 airbags, 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.

Various factors influence GPS signal reception and
there are some tips you can follow to improve the signal
reception and time it takes to calculate the current
location.
• Leave any enclosed structure, (garage, parking
structures, etc.).
• Make sure you have a ‘clear view of the sky’. Buildings
and trees can have an impact on GPS signal reception.
• Be sure that the device is mounted where it can have a
clear line of sight to the windshield.
Note: The first time the device calculates its location can take up
to 1 minute. Subsequent times will be 15 seconds on average.
