Magellan 510 Betriebsanweisung

The Magellan eXplorist GPS receiver is designed to be easy enough for the casual ‘explorer’ as well as having 

all of the advance features the ‘enthusiast’ requires.   This chapter provides information on the basics of using 

the Magellan eXplorist GPS receiver. 

The Magellan eXplorist GPS receiver uses two 

AA batteries that provides 16 hours of normal use.  

(See the section on Power Settings for details as to 

how to extend the battery life.)  Lithium, alkaline or 

rechargeable batteries can be used but both batteries 

need to be of the same type and should be defined 

in the Tools > Power function in the receiver (see 

Setting Battery Type).

Remove the battery door by raising the 

arm on the battery door lock and turning it 

counter clockwise for one-quarter of a turn.

Remove the battery door.  The battery 

door pivots from the bottom.  The 

pivot points will release when the top 

of the battery door is being raised.   

Install two AA batteries as shown.

Replace the battery door by first aligning the 

pivot tabs at the bottom of the door with the 

receiver.  

Lower the battery door until it seats firmly 

against the receiver.  (Note:  you may need to 

turn the battery door lock counter clockwise to 

allow the door to seat against the back of the 

receiver.)

Turn the battery door lock clockwise, locking 

the door in place.  

With the receiver on and the Map screen 

displayed, tap on the map.

The Four-Corner Menu screen is 

displayed.  Tap on the Main Menu 

button in the lower left corner.
