Chapter 5: Navigation Basic Operation
5.1 Turning the Magellan RoadMate 6000T On Out of the Box
Press the power button for approximately ten seconds (see “Front View” on page 5). If
power is connected properly or if the battery is charged sufficiently, the Magellan
screen will appear followed by the Warning screen. To comply with the warnings, press
OK. Next, the Quick Tips screen will appear. It is recommended to view the Quick Tips
to better familiarize yourself with the functionality of the Magellan RoadMate 6000T.
Otherwise, select
ESC to skip viewing the Quick Tips at this time. By default, the
navigation application will launch and the Destination screen will appear.
5.1.1 Power Off versus “Sleep” Mode
The Magellan RoadMate 6000T can be put into “sleep” mode. This mode is a limited power mode that saves battery power.
When “waking up” from sleep mode, the time to acquire a sattelite fix is significantly shorter than when the Magellan
RoadMate 6000T is powered up after being completely turned off.
To enable sleep mode, press and hold the Power button for 2-3 seconds. The display will shut off and the power indicator
light will be on dimly.
To power off completely, press and hold the Power button for 10 seconds. The Magellan RoadMate will be fully shut off.
To power up the Magellan RoadMate 6000T from sleep mode, press and hold the power button for 2-3 seconds. The
Warning screen will appear. Select
OK and you will be taken to the last screen you were viewing.
5.1.2 Power Management
The Magellan RoadMate 6000T can be configured to automatically go into “sleep” mode after 20 minutes of no keys or
touchscreen being pressed. Press the
MENU key on the Magellan RoadMate 6000T then, select System Settings and select
Power Management. Select the Auto Power Off time and then, select OK. For more information on Power Management, see
“Power Management” on page 85.
5.2 Resetting the Magellan RoadMate 6000T
In the event the Magellan RoadMate 6000T should stop responding, press RESET button. If a route was active at the time
the Magellan RoadMate 6000T was reset, powering the Magellan RoadMate 6000T back on will prompt you to resume, or
cancel the active route.
5.3 Adjusting the Volume
The VOLUME CONTROL lever is located at the top of the Magellan RoadMate 6000T (see “Top View” on page 7). Use the
lever to set the volume of the speaker to a desired level. The volume level indicator will appear on screen.
5.4 Repeating the Last Command
While routing to a destination, if you missed the last verbal command, you can repeat it by pressing the VOLUME CONTROL
lever down.
