Installation
Choose a Location.
The Magellan RoadMate receiver needs a clear
view of the sky to receive signals from the GPS satellites so choose a
location with an unobstructed view of the sky, commonly on or near the
windshield.
Clean the Surface.
Clean the area on the windshield and allow the
surface to dry before attaching the mount.
Attach the Car Cradle.
Pivot the cradle up from the bottom of the
receiver. To permanently attached the receiver to the cradle use the two
small 5.5mm x 10mm screws to attach the cradle to the receiver. If you
want to be able remove the receiver for security purposes, do not use
the two screws to attach the cradle to the receiver. Use the four 7mm x
12mm screws to attach the pivot plate to the cradle.
Attach the Receiver Assembly to
the Mount.
The ball end of the
mount snaps into the pivot plate that
was just attached. Use the tightening
ring to secure the receiver assembly
to the mount but do not tighten firmly
yet. After the entire assembly is
attached to the windshield you will
want to adjust the position of the
receiver for optimum viewing.
After the mount and the receiver are
assembled, place the suction cup of
the mount firmly against the area it is to be attached to and push the
mounting lever towards the base of the mount.
When the assembly is attached to the windshield, you can use the pivot
point on the arm of the mount or the pivot ring on the back of the cradle
to adjust the receiver for optimum viewing.
