Magellan SporTrak GPS Receiver
Setting up the SporTrak is a simple three-step process: installing the
batteries, selecting the language to be used and initializing the SporTrak.
The Magellan SporTrak uses two AA batteries that are installed from the
back through the battery cover. You can expect to get up to 15 hours of
usage on two AA batteries with the backlight turned off.
To remove the battery compartment, loosen the
retaining screw at the bottom of the battery
compartment. The battery compartment will come
free from the SporTrak and you can slide it out.
Install two AA batteries observing the correct polarity.
Slide the battery compartment back into the SporTrak
and tighten the retaining screw. Do not overtighten
the retaining screw.
Always turn the SporTrak off before removing the batteries
or turning off external power. Failure to do so can cause loss
or corruption of data.
How much time do I have to replace the batteries?
Any
waypoints or routes you have created are stored in permanent
memory with the batteries removed. Present position and time data
is not stored in permanent memory but will be held in memory for
at least 12 hours without batteries installed.
