Instructions for Operating the

Magellan CrossoverGPS

IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS

The Magellan CrossoverGPS is a vehicle-navigation aid designed to assist you in arriving at your selected destinations. When using the Magellan CrossoverGPS, these safety rules must be followed to prevent accidents that can result in injury or death to yourself or others:

• Some countries prohibit mounting any item to your windscreen. Please check the applicable regulations in your country as regards windscreen mounting. Go to www.magellanGPS.com for alternate mounting solutions. An adhesive disk is supplied with the Magellan CrossoverGPS for use as an alternative mounting solution to the dashboard.

• When driving, the need to view the display is minimal. Voice prompts will guide you to your destination. The driver should enter data or programme the Magellan CrossoverGPS only when the vehicle is stationary. Only a vehicle passenger should enter data or programme the Magellan CrossoverGPS 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. The database does not include, analyse, 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; neighbourhood quality or safety; availability or proximity of police, 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 Magellan CrossoverGPS safe from extreme temperature conditions. For example, do not leave it exposed to direct sunlight for an extended period of time.

• Take care when mounting the Magellan CrossoverGPS in your vehicle, whether using the windscreen 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 Magellan CrossoverGPS 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 Magellan CrossoverGPS.

• Laws in some countries prohibit wearing stereo headphones while operating a motor vehicle. Please check the applicable laws in the country you are driving.

• Proceed with caution when listening to music for prolonged periods of time through headphones, as this may lead to hearing loss.

• The battery in the Magellan CrossoverGPS is rechargeable and should not be removed. In the event that it should need to be replaced, please contact Magellan Technical Support.

About Charging the Magellan CrossoverGPS

• Only use the AC adapter (Phihong: PSC2200R-050) approved for your Magellan CrossoverGPS. Use of another type of AC adapter can result in malfunction and/or possible fire hazard due to battery overheating.

• Only use the car charger approved for/supplied with your Magellan CrossoverGPS. Use of another type of car charger will result in malfunctioning and/or may be hazardous.

• The Magellan CrossoverGPS is intended to be supplied with a LISTED Power Unit marked with "LPS", "Limited Power Source" and output rated + 5 V dc/2.0 A".

• Use the USB cable approved for/supplied with your Magellan CrossoverGPS.

• For safety reasons, the battery in your Magellan CrossoverGPS will stop charging when the ambient temperature is below 0°C (32°F) or above 45°C (113°F).

IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS

About the AC Adapter

• Do not use the adapter in a high moisture environment. Never touch the adapter when your hands or feet are wet.

• Allow adequate ventilation around the adapter when using it to operate the device or charging the battery. Do not cover the AC adapter with paper or other objects that will reduce cooling. Do not use the AC adapter while it is inside a carrying case.

• Connect the adapter to a suitable power source. The voltage and grounding requirements are found on the product case and/or packaging.

• Do not use the adapter if the cord becomes damaged.

• Do not attempt to service the Magellan CrossoverGPS. There are no serviceable parts inside. Replace the Magellan CrossoverGPS if it is damaged or exposed to excess moisture.

About the Battery

Creating Routes

Overview

Creating a route involves selecting a destination and choosing how you would like the

route calculated. Once this is done, the Magellan CrossoverGPS will calculate the route

using the guidelines you provide and displays the Map screen with information guiding

you to your destination.

Detailed map routing: The Magellan CrossoverGPS can only provide routing information

for detailed maps that are loaded on the SD Card. The detailed maps loaded on your

SD Card can cover one or several countries. It is not possible to be guided from and to

an address that doesn’t belong to the detailed maps that are loaded on your SD Card.

When your SD card is loaded with detailed maps for several countries, you must make

sure that the approriate Country of Destination has been selected before you start

searching for an address or a POI.

Creating a route to a street address

1. From the Main Menu, select Street Address.

2. Select Search By Town, Search by Postcode or Previous Towns.

3. Input the information as requested depending upon your selection in step 2.

If using Search By Town: Spell the town

name and select the town from the list,

spell the name of the street and select

from the available street list, then enter

the address number for the street. (If the

address you want to enter does not fall

within the acceptable range displayed,

enter the closest possible address.)

If using Search by Postcode: Enter the

postcode for the address and select the

town from the list of available towns.

Spell the name of the street and select

Using the keypad to enter information.

The keyboard will display only those letters that

spell an item in the database. This provides a

quick and easy tool to enter town and street

information.

Use the “123” button to enter numbers and

the “& ? / -” button to access symbols.

from the available street list, then enter

the address number for the street (it

must fall within the street number range displayed at the top of the screen).

Creating Routes 11

If using Previous Towns: Select a town from the list of previously used towns.

Spell the name of the street and select from the available street list, then enter

the address number for the street (it must fall within the street number range

displayed at the top of the screen).

4. Select the method to be used to calculate the route.

NOTE: All the street names are indexed using the main significant words in their names

(i.e. not the prefixes or articles). However, there are some exceptions where you may

encounter problems trying to find a street by typing only the significant word in its name.

If this is the case, try typing the prefix or article of the street name first.

Creating a route using POIs

POIs (points of interest) have been preloaded into the Magellan CrossoverGPS for

commonly used categories such as hotels, restaurants, petrol stations, etc. Following the

steps provided you will be able to create a route to any of these destinations.

Creating a route to a POI by name

1. .From the Main Menu, select POI-Points of Interest.

2. Select the POI category and, if displayed,

the subcategory.

3. Select Spell Name.

4. Spell out the POI name. You do not need

to spell out the complete name. However,

the more letters you enter, the narrower

the search will be.

select the one you are looking for. Select ‘Other’

5. Select Current Position, Address or Tow n

Centre.

The most common will be Current Position or Town Centre. In this case you could

be looking for any particular brand of petrol station nearest to where you are or

perhaps nearest to the centre of a town you are planning on going to.

Scroll down the list of available categories to

for additional categories.

If you select Town centre or address, you will need to input the name and select

from the list of available items before continuing.

6. Select the POI from the list of POIs that you are looking for.
