Here's a step-by-step guide:
1) Turn off your Magellan GPS device.
The first step in resetting your Magellan GPS device is to turn it off. To do this, press and hold the power button on the device for 3-5 seconds. You should hear a beep sound when the device is successfully powered off. Make sure that all lights on the device are no longer lit before moving onto the next step.
2) Remove the batteries from your Magellan GPS device.
Start by opening the battery compartment on your Magellan GPS device. There should be a small latch that you can open to access the battery compartment.
Once the compartment is open, carefully remove the batteries from your device. Make sure that you handle the batteries with care, as mishandling them can lead to them becoming damaged and unusable.
Once you have removed the batteries from your device, take a look at the terminals inside the battery compartment. They should be clean and free of any debris. If there is any build up of dirt or dust, use a cotton swab and rubbing alcohol to clean the terminals.
After you have done this, you can safely close the battery compartment, making sure it is securely latched. Now you are ready to move on to the next step.
3) Press and hold the power button on your Magellan GPS device for 30 seconds.
This process is crucial for resetting your Magellan GPS device. Push the power button for a minimum of 30 seconds. With this, you should see the Magellan GPS will go into a factory restart and go back to the way it was at the start.
