Safety Notice
IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS
The Magellan SmartGPS receiver is a vehicle-navigation aid designed to assist you in arriving at
your selected destinations. When using the Magellan SmartGPS receiver, these safety rules must be
followed to prevent accidents that can result in injury or death to yourself or others:
Please check the applicable regulations in your state regarding windshield mounting. Certain states
prohibit the mounting of any items on your windshield. Go to www.magellanGPS.com for alternative
mounting solutions.
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 SmartGPS receiver only when the
vehicle is stationary. Only a vehicle passenger should enter data or program the Magellan SmartGPS
receiver while the vehicle is moving. Do not become distracted by the receiver while driving, and
always be fully aware of all driving conditions.
It is your responsibility to comply with all traffic laws and to use the Magellan SmartGPS and mounting
options in such a manner that the user is in compliance with applicable laws.
Roads, points of interest (POIs), business and service locations may change over time. As a result the
database may contain inaccuracy. Also, the database does not include, analyse, process, consider, or
reflect any of the following: legal restrictions (such as vehicle type, weight, height, width, load and
speed restrictions); road slope or gradient; bridge height, width, weight or other limits; population
density; neighborhood 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 SmartGPS receiver 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 SmartGPS receiver in your vehicle, whether using the
windshield mount or other mounts, 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 receiver be dislodged while driving. It is your responsibility to assess the
risks associated with damage to your vehicle or vehicle occupants as the result of your choices in
mounting the Magellan SmartGPS receiver.
Temperature
The maximum operating temperature is 140°F (60°C).
Battery
The battery in the Magellan SmartGPS receiver is rechargeable and should not be removed. In the
event that it should need to be replaced, please contact Magellan Technical Support.
Charging the Magellan SmartGPS
An optional AC adapter is available as an accessory for your Magellan SmartGPS. Use of another type
of AC adapter can result in malfunction and/or possible fire hazard due to battery overheating.
www.magellangps.com
1
Only use the car charger approved for/supplied with your Magellan SmartGPS receiver. Use of
another type of car charger will result in fire or electric shock.
For safety reasons, the battery in your Magellan SmartGPS receiver will stop charging when the
ambient temperature is less than 32°F (0°C) or more than 113°F (45°C).
It will take approximately 4 hours of charging the Magellan SmartGPS receiver through the vehicle
power adapter or optional AC adapter to obtain a full battery charge. It is recommended that you
charge the battery initially for at least 2 hours.
Use only the charger approved for your Magellan SmartGPS receiver.
Estimated usage of the Magellan SmartGPS on battery power is approximately 30 minutes.
