HOW TO RESET MAGELLAN ROADMATE GPS RECEVIER - 2036 - 2045 - 3045T - RESTORE & BACK UP DATA



RESET TO FACTORY DEFAULTS
It is useful to set a GPS position ifyou are not receiving satellite information quickly due to travelling over 800 km/500 mi with the Magellan RoadMate receiver turned off. Setting the GPS position will allow the Magellan RoadMate receiver to compute which satellites are available and calculate the position more quickly.
  • From the Main Menu screen, tap the Settings icon.
  • Tap GPS Options.
  • Tap Set GPS Position.
  • Enter an address as you were selecting a destination.

TO RESTORE DATA

Backing Up and Restoring Data (not available on the Magellan RoadMate 2036)
Backup and restore provides a way of storing the address book and other data on an optional micro SD card inserted in your Magellan RoadMate receiver. When the data has been backed up, it can be restored at any time. Please note that when you restore from backed up data, address book and other data will be replaced with the restored data. The Magellan RoadMate receiver cannot append backed up data to your existing data.
  • Insert a micro SD card in your Magellan RoadMate receiver.
  • From the Main Menu screen, tap the Settings icon.
  • Tap Backup and Restore.
  • Tap Backup My Data to save your user data and settings on the inserted micro SD card.
  • Tap Restore Saved Data to overwrite your user data and setting with a previous backup available on the inserted micro SD card.
  • Tap Restore All Default Settings to reset all settings to their factory defaults.
