Loading The Alkaline Batteries - Magellan GPS PROMARK X User Manual

Getting Started
poor power performance after repeated use, and rechargeable alkaline
batteries maintain only 50% of the useful life of standard alkaline batteries.
Several things should be remembered when operating with the Recharge-
able Battery Pack. The battery pack can be charged in 4 hours. The battery
pack will power the unit for up to 3 hours of continuous use, after which the
power drop can be quite sudden. In some instances, the drop may be so
sudden that the battery pack may not retain enough charge to maintain the
unit's memory for very long. We therefore suggest that replacement
batteries, a fully-charged battery pack or external power be available when
the unit is being operated from the Rechargeable Battery Pack for long
periods.
The ProMARK X is shipped with alkaline batteries already installed. The
Rechargeable Battery Pack and a variety of charging adapters are available
as options from your Magellan dealer.
Loading the Alkaline Batteries. Use the procedure below to install
alkaline batteries in the unit.
1. Make sure that the unit is off. If the unit was being operated on
external power, also disconnect the ProMARK X from the external
power source.
2. Holding the unit as shown in the illustration, pull the battery cover
firmly towards the bottom of the unit until it stops, then lift the
door off. To create a seal against moisture, the cover fits snugly
and will not move easily.
3. Remove the old battery clip.
