IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS
The Magellan eXplorist TRX7 and TRX7 CS are off-road vehicle navigation aids designed to assist you in driving on off-
road routes as well as across municipal streets. Please check with your state or local law enforcement for applicable 
regulations regarding mounting to the windshield. The driver should enter data or program the Magellan device only when 
the vehicle is stopped. Only a vehicle passenger should enter data or program the device while the vehicle is moving. It is 
your responsibility to comply with all traffic laws. Every attempt is made to ensure that the database is accurate. However, 
roadways, points of interest (POIs), and business and service locations may change over time. Keep the device safe from 
extreme temperature conditions. For example, do not leave it exposed to direct sunlight for an extended period of time. 
The minimum operating temperature is 14ºF (-10ºC), and the maximum operating temperature is 140°F (60°C). Mount 
the device in your vehicle, whether using the windshield mount or other mount or accessories, so that the device does 
not obstruct the driver’s view of the road, interfere with the operation of the vehicle’s safety devices, such as airbags, or 
present a hazard to occupants of the vehicle should the device become dislodged while driving. Comply with all local, 
state, and federal laws before mounting the device in your vehicle. You assume the risks associated with damage to your 
vehicle or vehicle occupants as the result of your choices in mounting the device. The battery is rechargeable and should 
not be removed. Should the battery need to be replaced, please contact Magellan Technical Support at 800-707-9971, or 
go to trxsupport.magellangps.com.
Charging the Magellan eXplorist TRX7
An AC adapter is included with your TRX7. Use ONLY the car charger approved for/supplied with your TRX7. Use of another 
type of car charger will result in fire or electric shock. For safety reasons, the battery in your TRX7 will stop charging when 
the ambient temperature is less than 32°F (0°C) or more than 113°F (45°C). The TRX7 requires approximately 4 hours 
of charging through the vehicle power adapter or AC adapter to obtain a full battery charge. Charge your TRX7 battery 
initially for at least 2 hours. Estimated usage of the TRX7 on battery power is approximately 4-6 hours. Note: Use a 3.5V-5V 
2A charger should you need to replace your adapter.
