1 Magellan Roadmate GPS Receiver
The Magellan
®
RoadMate
®
receiver is a
vehicle navigation product.
It uses GPS signals from satellites to
calculate your precise location and compute
navigational information.
The RoadMate uses its position and
movement to overlay this information
on detailed maps to provide a visual
representation of your location.
With the Magellan Roadmate receiver you
can:
• Save searches and addresses under the
OneTouch™ menu for fast, convenient
access to favorite destinations and
searches.
• Store your home address so you can
quickly get routing details from wherever
you are to your home.
• Enter and save addresses in your address
book that can be accessed at any time
and get routing information to that
address.*
• Route to an address that you enter using
the QuickSpell™ and Smart City search for
easy, errorless address entry.
• Route to any point of interest (POI) that
has been preloaded into your Magellan
Roadmate receiver.
• Create a route with multiple destinations.
Handy for business people who need
routing information to many destinations.
• View POIs that are near exits ahead of
you on the highway. The Highway Exit
POIs function provides you with a list of
gas stations, restaurants, hotels and auto
repair shops located nearby exits you
are approaching while travelling on the
interstate.
• Save location information to create a map
later of the places you went.
• Customize your Magellan Roadmate
receiver to meet your needs using the
Settings menu.
The user interface for the Magellan Roadmate
receiver is intended to be easy and simple to
follow.
The Magellan Roadmate receiver has a built-
in battery. Note that a fully charged Magellan
Roadmate with 7” screen only has about 30
minutes of battery life. If you need or wish to
use external power, you can use an optional
AC power adapter.
While the Magellan Roadmate has a powerful
GPS chipset, you may not get strong enough
satellite signals to compute your location when
indoors or in a parking garage. If you find
you are not getting strong enough satellite
signals while in a garage or other structure,
move to a location where there is a clear view
of the sky and you should immediately see an
improvement in signal strength.
The Magellan Roadmate receiver includes
Voice Alerts (both prerecorded and Text-to-
Speech) for driving instructions.
