CHAPTER 2
Getting Ready to Use the NAV 5000
Before your NAV 5000 is ready for use, there are several setup tasks
that must be completed. This chapter describes these tasks in the
order in which they should be performed.
If the unit was being operated on external power, also discon-
nect the NAV 5000 from the external power source.
2-1
BATTERIES
The NAV 5000 requires six (6) AA alkaline batteries for operation. The
batteries are used to operate the unit without an external power
source. (See Battery Saver on page 5-12.)
Magellan Systems Corporation recommends Eveready Energizer
TM
batteries.
We do not recommend that you operate the NAV 5000 with nickel
cadmium (NiCad) batteries. NiCads have a much shorter life than
alkaline batteries; in the NAV 5000, they last only about 3.5 hours.
Also, the power drop at the end of NiCad battery life is so rapid that
there may be no warning before the unit's memory is lost. Use NiCad
batteries at your own risk.
The NAV 5000 is shipped with alkaline batteries already installed.
Loading the Alkaline Batteries
The unit must be operated with six (6) AA alkaline batteries. Use the
procedure below to load batteries.
1. Put the batteries in the extra battery clip. Be sure the batteries
are oriented as shown on the clip.
2 Be sure the unit is off.
