Installing Your iPhone or iPod touch
Turning the ToughCase GPS Receiver Off
Setting the ToughCase Power Mode
Lift the locking flaps on both sides of the ToughCase GPS receiver and pivot the lid upwards. The Master Power switch (upper left side) is accessible when the lid is
open. Switch it to ON.
Connect your iPhone to the dock connector. If using an iPod touch, you need to place your iPod touch into the Sleeve (supplied) and then connect the assembly to
the dock connector.
Close the lid and hold the lid shut while snapping the locking flaps until you hear a ‘click’.
The ToughCase GPS receiver can be turned off to prevent unnecessary battery drain while being stored or during travel.
Release the Locking Flaps and open the ToughCase GPS receiver. Remove your iPhone or iPod touch from the ToughCase GPS receiver. This reveals the Master
Power switch. Slide it to OFF to keep battery charge.
The ToughCase GPS receiver has four power modes available; OFF/ON (described above), idle, battery
only, or battery+GPS.
Pressing the Mode button (on the bottom of the ToughCase GPS receiver) causes the LEDs to display the
current mode the ToughCase GPS receiver is in. To change the mode you need to press the Mode switch
again before the LEDs go out. (When powering on, all lights flash momentarily.)

Charge
To charge the ToughCase GPS receiver, simply connect the USB cable from the ToughCase to your IBM-compatible or Macintosh computer. Alternatively, you can
charge the ToughCase GPS Receiver with an AC adapter with a USB connector (like the one supplied with your iPhone) or purchase the AC Power Adapter from
MagellanGPS.com.
Note: When the battery in the ToughCase GPS receiver is below 5% charged, there is not enough power in the ToughCase to even power the red battery charge
LED. This LED will remain off even after connecting to a PC or an AC adapter until the ToughCase internal battery is above 5% charge.
ToughCase Battery Life
When your iPhone or iPod touch is installed in the ToughCase GPS receiver and the power mode is set
to Battery only or Battery+GPS, the battery in the ToughCase GPS receiver will charge your iPhone or
iPod touch.
The ToughCase GPS receiver charges when it is connected to a PC with the USB cable (supplied) or a
USB power adapter.
The ToughCase GPS receiver and your iPhone or your iPod touch are both charged when Master Power
switch is on, a USB cable or USB power adapter is connected and the power mode is set to Battery Only
or Battery+GPS.
ToughCase Battery Status. The four LEDs at the bottom of the ToughCase GPS receiver display the
battery charge when the battery button (below the LEDs) is pressed.
Using the ToughCase with Your iPhone
The ToughCase GPS receiver has an earphone opening just above the display lens and a microphone
opening at the bottom. To use your iPhone as a cell phone while it is installed in the ToughCase GPS
receiver, just hold the top of the ToughCase GPS receiver to your ear and speak normally.
Some headsets and headphones have an inline microphone. These can be used with the ToughCase
GPS receiver to listen to the output of your iPhone or iPod touch but cannot be used as the microphone.
You have to use the microphone opening at the bottom of the ToughCase GPS receiver.
Turning your iPhone or iPod touch On
The power buttons for your iPhone or iPod touch are located at the top of the ToughCase GPS receiver in their normal orientation. To power your iPhone, click the
button on the right or click the button on the left to power your iPod touch.
Camera Use
You can use your iPhone to take photos while installed in the ToughCase GPS receiver. There is a clear lens on the back of the ToughCase GPS receiver that
enables your iPhone camera to function as normal.
Maintenance
Use a soft, damp cloth to clean the exterior and display lens of the ToughCase GPS receiver.
Check the seal on the lid of the ToughCase GPS receiver before closing to make sure no foreign objects are caught in the seal that could interfere with the waterproof
integrity of the ToughCase GPS receiver. Check the o-ring that seals the lid to the body of the ToughCase GPS receiver at regular intervals. If it is damaged go to
Support at www.magellangps.com.
Safety
The ToughCase GPS receiver protects your iPhone or iPod touch from water as it is sealed to IPX-7 standards. The temperature inside the ToughCase GPS
receiver can go up to levels that can cause your iPhone or iPod touch to turn off when it is left in direct sunlight for long periods of time. You should avoid leaving the
ToughCase GPS receiver in environments that could raise the internal temperature to unsafe levels such as on the dash or seat of your car where direct sunlight
could raise the internal temperature.
