Getting Started
This section shows you how to use your receiver for the first time and

Installing the Batteries
The Magellan SporTrak uses two AA batteries that are installed from the
bottom through the battery cover. You can expect to
get up to 15 hours of usage on two AA batteries with
the backlight turned off.
To remove the battery compartment, loosen the
retaining screw at the bottom of the battery
compartment. The battery compartment will come
free from the SporTrak and you can slide it out.
Install two AA batteries observing the correct
polarity. Slide the battery compartment back into
the SporTrak and tighten the retaining screw. Do
not overtighten the retaining screw.
How much time do I have to replace the batteries? Any
waypoints or routes you have created are stored in permanent
memory with the batteries removed. Present position and time
data is not stored in permanent memory but will be held in
memory for at least 12 hours without batteries installed.
Always turn the SporTrak off before removing the batteries
or turning off external power. Failure to do so can cause
loss or corruption of data.
