Installation Instructions

Installation of the Magellan Maestro is simple and easy. The hardest part will be picking the best location.

Selecting the Location

A few tips on selecting a suitable location.

•Mount the Magellan Maestro in a place where it can be easily seen and will not interfere with your view of the road.

•The Magellan Maestro should be mounted in such a way that the antenna, (located in the top of the receiver), has an unobstructed view of the sky through the windscreen.

•Select whether it will be mounted using the adjustable mount to the windscreen or the supplied adhesive disk. Make sure that you check your local and regional laws before mounting the device on the windscreen. Some countries have laws restricting the mounting of any device on the windscreen.

•If planning to use the adhesive disk, a smooth surface on the dash board will need to be selected. Do not attach the adhesive disk to the windscreen.

•Make sure that the Magellan Maestro or any cabling will not be disturbed if the airbags are activated.

Cleaning the Area

Use the alcohol pad that came with the Magellan Maestro to clean the area on the windscreen or dashboard that has been selected for mounting the Magellan Maestro.

Applying the Adhesive Disk

(Skip if mounting directly onto the windscreen.) Remove the protective tape from the back of the adhesive disk. Apply the disk with the adhesive side towards the dashboard. Maintain pressure on the disk for 5 minutes to allow it to set in place. Allow the disk 24 hours to cure before continuing.

Attach the Adjustable Mount

Line up the two tabs on the adjustable mount with the holes on the back of the Magellan Maestro. Once the adjustable mount is flush with the Magellan Maestro, push the receiver down until it locks in place with the adjustable mount.

Please note that the mounting bracket supplied with the Magellan Maestro may be different to the one shown in this document.

Installation

Secure the Mount to the Windshield or Adhesive Disk

Make sure that the lever at the base of the adjustable mount is in the up position. Place the base of the mount firmly over the area of the windscreen to be used or the adhesive disk. Push the lever at the base of the mount all the way down until it snaps into place. Carefully let go of the assembly, making sure that it is securely mounted.

Adjust the Mount for Optimum Viewing

Loosen the adjustment locking knobs and position the Magellan Maestro for optimum viewing. Once set, tighten the locking knobs. (Never attempt to adjust the mount while driving.)

Connecting Power

Plug the end of the cigarette lighter adapter into a 12 VDC cigarette lighter receptacle in the vehicle. Connect the other end to the Magellan Maestro as shown. If there is power at the receptacle, the Magellan Maestro will power on. (Note: some vehicles apply power to the cigarette lighter receptacle only when the ignition is on.)

Security

We recommend that the Magellan Maestro is not left in plain view when unattended as it may attract thieves.

Installation

Magellan Maestro

The Magellan Maestro is a vehicle navigation product that uses GPS signals from satellites to calculate your precise location and compute detailed routes. As it knows its position and movement,

it can then overlay this information on detailed maps provided by NAVTEQ® to provide a visual representation of your location.

With the Magellan Maestro you can:

•Store your home address and quickly obtain routing details to your home.

•Create and save addresses in your address book that you can access at any time and obtain routing information to that address.

•Route to an address that you enter using the keypad and Magellan’s QuickSpell feature for easy, error-free entry.

•Route to any point of interest (POI) that has been preloaded into your Magellan Maestro.

•Route to a POI that appears on the map while travelling simply by tapping on the POI icon.

•Route to a town centre.

•Use the trip planner to create a trip with multiple destinations. Handy for business people who need routing information to many destinations.

•Use the POI Near Exit tool that provides you with a list of petrol stations, restaurants, hotels and auto repair shops located near exits you are approaching that you can route to when travelling on a motorway.

•Customise your Magellan Maestro to meet your needs.

The interface for the Magellan Maestro is easy and simple to follow once you understand the basics. You may never need to refer to this manual but if you do we have tried to present it in a form that makes it easy for you to access the function you are trying to use and follow the steps provided.

The Magellan Maestro has a built-in battery, so, in most cases, you will be able to follow these instructions while reading them on your computer screen without plugging it in to the AC power socket. You should note that while indoors you may not get any satellite signals, so your location information may not be updated. However, the power of the SiRFstarIII™ chipset installed in the Magellan Maestro will pick up satellite signals in some very demanding locations, so you may notice the Magellan Maestro computing a position, even indoors.

The Keypad

Understanding the keypad while entering an address is an important part of using your Magellan Maestro. The keypad is the most common method for entering data into the Magellan Maestro.

Keypad Overview

Special Keys

Alphabetic Keypad	Numeric Keypad
Accented letters Keypad	Spacebar
Backspace
Accept	Cancel

Selecting From List

After tapping “OK” to accept your input, you may be presented with a list of items found in the database. The sample given here shows the result of tapping “OK” after entering “LOND”. Use the scroll bar to move up and down the list and tap on the desired item in the list to continue.

Fundamentals

Quickspell

QuickSpell uses information in the database to limit the keys that can be pressed to present only those which correspond with information in the database.

For example, if you are looking for LONDON. As you ‘type’ in the name London, only keys that can spell a town in the database are shown. In the screen to the right, ‘LON “ has been entered. Keys that would not continue to spell a town in the database are greyed out..

This is to enable the town and street names to be entered quickly, without introoducing any errors due to typos.

Notes on Entering Data

If you are having trouble getting the results you expected, here are a few useful tips.

•Make sure that you have spelled the name correctly. If you are unsure of the spelling, just enter a few characters and tap “OK”. A long list of names will be displayed, but you can step through the list and you will probably be able to find the correct spelling.

•When the name of the town has a prefix such as ‘Saint’, ‘The’ ‘Le’, ‘La’ etc. you must enter this prefix in order to obtain the expected result.

•When entering a street name, you can usually enter only one of the significant words in the street name to retrieve it from the database. However, if you are having trouble finding the street you are looking for, we recommend trying to type in its full name.

•The more characters you enter, the smaller the list of entries found will be.

Fundamentals
