Magellan CrossoverGPS

IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS

The Magellan CrossoverGPS is a vehicle-navigation aid designed to assist you in arriving to 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:

• California and Minnesota law prohibits mounting any item to your windshield. Please check with your state or local law enforcement for applicable regulations regarding windshield mounting. Go to www.magellanGPS.com for alternate mounting solutions. An adhesive disk is supplied with the Magellan CrossoverGPS for use as an alternate 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 program the Magellan CrossoverGPS only when the vehicle is stopped. Only a vehicle passenger should enter data or program 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, analyze, 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; neighborhood quality or safety; availability or proximity of law enforcement, 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 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 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 states prohibit wearing stereo headphones while operating a motor vehicle. Please contact your state’s Department of Motor Vehicles for information.

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

About Charging the Magellan CrossoverGPS

• Use only the AC adapter approved for your Magellan CrossoverGPS. Use of another type of AC adapter can result in malfunction and/or possible fire hazard due to battery over heating.

• Use only the car charger approved for / supplied with your Magellan CrossoverGPS. Use of another type of car charger will result in malfunction and/or damage to the receiver.

• 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.

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.

Creating a route to a street address

Most street addresses should be very easy to enter without any problems. If you are having problems entering an specific address, or just need additional information, go to the Magellan web site at http://www.magellangps.com/support/faqdetail.asp?faqid=355&prodid=1748 for a FAQ that discusses some of the more common issues found.

1. From the Main Menu, tap Street Address.

2. Select Search By City, Search by Zip Code or Previous City.

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

If using Search By City: Spell the city

name and select the city from the list,

spell the name of the street and select

from the available street list, and 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 Zip Code: Enter the

zip code for the address and select the

city from the list of available cities.

Spell the name of the street and select

Using the keyboard 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 city and street

information.

Use the “123” button to enter numbers and the

“More” button to access symbols.

from the available street list, and enter

the address number for the street (it

must fall within the street number range

displayed at the top of the screen).

If using Previous City: Select a city from the list of previously used cities. Spell

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

Creating Routes 11

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: When entering street names, do not use the prefix for the street. If you are

creating a destination to W. Main, enter just Main. You will be given the opportunity to

select W. Main from the list of available streets.

Creating a route using POIs

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

commonly used categories such as banks, restaurants, gas 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, tap POI.

2. Select the category of the POI and, if

displayed, the subcategory.

3. Tap 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. If you

entered ‘Star’ looking for Starbucks you

Scroll down the list of available categories to

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

for additional categories.

might see China Star or other POI names

that have a word beginning with ‘Star’ in the list.

5. Select Current Position, Address or City Center.

The most common will be Current Position or City Center. In this case you could

be looking for the Starbuck’s nearest to where you are or or possibly nearest to the

center of a city you are planning on going to.

If you select city center, airport or address, you will need to input the name and
