magellan roadmate 1470 problem

[milpig]

Anyone know why my roadmate. 1470 has now started rebooting automatically for performance issues every time I enter an address?

I know the roadmate is junk but it is what I am used to and I hate my backup Garmin even though it is newer.

Go to the system menu:
On the menu bar (the top bar where it says System Settings) Tap left corner twice, right corner twice, left corner once, right corner once. It will bring up a hidden menu. The first thing on the hidden menu is reset for first use. Press that and you have done the equivalent of a hard reset. There is no hard reset button on that unit.

Once reset, make sure you have the latest firmware installed. Get that at the Magellan Web site.

Thank you. That is exactly what I was trying to figure out.
