Installation Instructions
Installation of the Magellan RoadMate is simple and easy. The hardest part will be picking the best
location.
Selecting the Location
A few tips on selecting the proper location.
Mount the Magellan RoadMate in a place where it can be easily seen and will not interfere
with your view of the road.
The Magellan RoadMate should be mounted in such a way that the antenna, (located in
the top of the receiver), has an unobstructed view of the sky through the windshield.
Select whether it will be mounted using the adjustable mount to the windshield or an
adhesive disk. Be sure to check your local and regional laws before mounting to the
windshield. Some states, like California and Minnesota, have laws restricting the
mounting of any device on the windshield. (Adhesive Disks are available from the
Magellan Store at www.magellanGPS.com if one was not supplied with the Magellan
RoadMate.)
If planning to use the adhesive disk, a smooth surface on the dash board will need to be
selected. Do not attach the adhesive disk to the windshield nor airbag covers.
Make sure that the Magellan RoadMate nor any cabling will be disturbed in the event that
the airbags are deployed.
Cleaning the Area
Use the alcohol pad that came with the Magellan RoadMate to clean the area on the windshield or
dash that has been selected for mounting the Magellan RoadMate. Let the area dry completely.
Applying the Adhesive Disk
(Skip if mounting directly to the windshield.)
Remove the protective tape from the back of
the adhesive disk. Apply the disk with the
adhesive side towards the dash. Maintain
pressure on the disk for 5 minutes to allow it
to set in place. Allow the disk 24 hours to
cure before continuing.
Please note that the swivel mount supplied with the Magellan RoadMate may be different then the one shown in this
document.
