TIP
TIP 3
BATTERY PRECAUTIONS
DO

Only charge the Battery using the Battery Charger supplied to avoid damage.

The Battery contains diluted sulfuric acid, a very toxic substance. If sulfuric acid
contacts skin or clothing, immediately wash with plenty of clean water. If the acid
splashes into eyes, immediately flush with plenty of clean water and consult a
physician. Sulfuric acid in the eyes may cause a loss of eyesight and acid on the
skin will cause burns.

Check the Battery for any sign of irregularities in appearance. If any cracks or
deformities are noticed, replace the Battery with a new one. Call Magellan
Customer Service center at 1-877-4CARNAV (1-877-422-7628) for a replacement.

Avoid mechanical shock to Battery such as dropping which may cause damage
and/or deterioration to the Battery.
DO NOT

DO NOT
connect the Battery to direct power; use the specified Battery Charger.

DO NOT
use a dry cloth or duster to clean the Battery. Avoid static electricity that
could cause the Battery to explode. If the Battery requires cleaning, disconnect the
Battery from the Battery Cable and clean with a slightly damp cloth only.

DO NOT
expose the Battery to extremely hot temperatures or leave in direct sun-
light, in front of a stove, or near a fire.

DO NOT
use the Battery in a dusty environment which may short the battery.

DO NOT
throw the Battery in a fire or extreme heat which may cause the Battery to
emit toxic gas or explode.

DO NOT
attempt to disassemble or destroy the Battery, as injury may result.

DO NOT
allow metallic objects or liquids to contact or short-circuit the Battery
terminals, as burns or injuries may result.

DO NOT
apply organic solvents such as paint thinner, gasoline, kerosene, or liquid
detergents to the Battery which may cause leakage.

! Upon purchasing the 750
M
verify that the product box contains both a Carry Case (which
contains all of the 750
M
components) and the Battery.
Before installation, please verify that the pre-assembled 750
M
system in the Carry Case includes
the following components:
If any part is missing, please contact a Magellan retailer or Magellans
customer service department at 1-877-4-CARNAV (1-877-422-7628).

The 750
M
Carry Case has been designed to provide Magellans Portable Vehicle Navigation
system with expandable functionality and user friendliness.
Special features include the Air Vents and a Communication Port Access Flap. Additionally, the
system is pre-assembled and fits neatly into specialized compartments for ease of use.
The Air Vents are designed to allow proper airflow to the 750
M
Navigation Computer,
therefore, must not become obstructed. The Access Flap is designed for accessibility to the
750
M
Communication Ports. As future developments of the 750
M
occur, such as software
updates, map changes, etc., these ports will allow the user to make changes easily.

DO

Position Carry Case to eliminate movement while driving with handle facing toward front of
vehicle.

Place Carry Case in the same orientation each time the system is used to reduce calibration
requirements.

Complete calibration steps when system is powered up for the first time and after the 750
M
has:
- been moved to a different vehicle;
- or has its in-vehicle location changed.

Place GPS Antenna on vehicle roof so that it has a clear view of the sky. If obstructed by a
rack or other attached roof equipment, the GPS Antenna may not receive satellite signals.
DO NOT

DO NOT
obstruct Carry Case Air Vents from airflow. Failure to keep Air Vents free of
obstructions could cause permanent damage to the 750
M
Navigation Computer.

DO NOT
allow any part of the 750
M
to become wet, moist or allow any part of the 750
M
to
become exposed to any liquids.

DO NOT
expose any 750
M
part to extreme heat or cold for extensive periods of time.

DO NOT
tangle, kink, or excessively twist GPS Antenna Wire when winding or unwinding
from Antenna Storage Spool.

DO NOT
store antenna on Navigation Computer side of Carry Case.
